Digital Mobility Lab
Based in Naples, Italy, the Digital Mobility Lab is a research laboratory within the Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering at the University of Naples Federico II.
The Lab is co-directed by Vincenzo Punzo and Marcello Montanino.
We combine traffic-flow theory, data analysis, modelling and simulation to study road, rail and multimodal transport systems.
Research areas
- Connected, cooperative and automated mobility
- Human driving behaviour and traffic-flow modelling
- Digitalisation and automation of railway operations
- Electrified mobility and energy-consumption modelling
- Mobility as a Service and multimodal transport
- Traffic and network management
Our work develops models, methods and research tools for safer, more efficient and more sustainable mobility.
