The "IFAC Young Author Award" was recently awarded to Niloufar Dabestani, a Ph.D. student at the Technical University of Crete (TUC), for a paper she co-authored as first author with other colleagues from TUC:
Dabestani, N., Typaldos, P., Papamichail, I., Papageorgiou, M.: Joint vehicle path planning for interruptible 1-D snake-like platoons and 2-D flocks in lane-free traffic
This research paper presents a joint trajectory optimization algorithm for connected and automated vehicles forming 1-D snake-like interruptible platoons and/or 2-D deformable and interruptible flocks in a lane-free traffic environment on highways.
The paper was presented at and was published in the Proceedings of the 17th IFAC Symposium on Control in Transportation Systems (CTS 2024), held in Ayia Napa, Cyprus, July 1-3, 2024. The award was presented to Niloufar Dabestani on Tuesday, July 2, 2024, during the Conference banquet.
Niloufar Dabestani pursues her doctoral studies in the School of Production Engineering and Management (PEM) at TUC and conducts her research within the project "TrafficFluid", funded by the European Research Council (ERC), under the supervision of Prof. Ioannis Papamichail and Prof. Em. Markos Papageorgiou (Principal Investigator of the project).
