Professor Zuduo Zheng

Zuduo Zheng is a professor at the University of the West of England, where he leads the Transport Systems Research Group. His research focuses on the development of advanced transportation systems, particularly in the areas of connected and automated vehicles, traffic flow modeling, and sustainable mobility solutions. He has made significant contributions to the understanding of traffic dynamics and the integration of emerging technologies in transportation networks. Zheng's work has been widely published in top-tier journals and conferences, and he is recognized for his innovative approaches to solving complex transportation challenges. He is also actively involved in policy development and industry collaboration to promote safer, more efficient, and environmentally friendly transportation systems.

Zuduo Zheng's research focuses on traffic, travel behaviour, decision making, and human behaviour, with an emphasis on understanding and modeling driver interactions in traffic systems. Their work explores the impact of traffic oscillations on freeway safety, the role of human factors in car-following models, and the integration of connected and automated vehicles into existing traffic environments. Zheng has investigated the effects of lane-changing behaviour, driver characteristics, and real-time traffic data on driving decisions and safety. Their research also includes the application of wavelet transform for traffic analysis and the development of behavioral models for traffic flow stability. Additionally, Zheng has examined the influence of mobile phone use and connected environments on driver behavior through driving simulator studies.
