Competition vs. Collaboration
NEXTRANS researchers are currently developing dynamic models by which small to medium trucking firms in the less-than-truckload (LTL) industry can collaborate to better utilize existing infrastructure and technological advances.
Jet Travel On-Demand
NEXTRANS investigators are currently exploring the idea of a commercial "on-demand air service," which aims to enhance "doorstep-to-destination" mobility for citizens, utilizing very light jets.
Keeping America On-Track
NEXTRANS researchers are utilizing advanced visual sensing technology to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of railroad track inspection.
