Researchers from these two institutions have been investigating research topics that align with the overall vision of the global SRF group. The Indian group members collaborated on research that investigated optimization of design parameters for electric vehicle sharing platforms and characterization of passing sight distance and its impact on freight logistic efficiency. These have resulted in technical publications and a few more are expected soon. Future plans include potential researchers exchange and pursuing more related research projects such as those including truck platooning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Team at IIMA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The Centre for Transportation and Logistics (CTL) has been established at IIMA with the vision to facilitate cutting-edge research in transportation, logistics and allied areas, and thereby contribute to scholarship, practice, and policymaking in India and abroad.
