Scholar-generated biography
Ulrich Weidmann is a transportation engineer at ETH Zurich, specializing in pedestrian and public transport systems. His research focuses on pedestrian traffic characteristics, walking facilities, and the impact of infrastructure on pedestrian mobility. He has published extensively on topics such as pedestrian speed estimation, dwell time calculation models, and the influence of slope on walking activity. Additionally, his work addresses public transport reliability, passenger arrival rates, and the integration of real-time rescheduling in railway systems. Weidmann also explores the effects of non-aeronautical activities on public transport access and the application of tram–train systems in Europe.
