MAHNAM SAEEDNIA
Assistant Professor, Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences, TU Delft
Mahnam is an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Civil
Engineering and Geosciences at TU Delft in the Department of Transport and
Planning. Previously, she was R&D project lead at Siemens Mobility (Hacon
Ingenieurgesellschaft mbH). She received her Master's degree in Civil
Engineering with a specialisation in Transportation Engineering, and her PhD in
Freight Transportation and Logistics. She was a postdoctoral researcher at the Swiss
Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich), where she was a recipient of the Swiss
National Science Foundation (SNSF) grant.
Mahnam's area of research addresses current challenges in the
freight transport sector, specifically in the domains of railway freight,
intermodal freight transportation, automation, digitalisation and energy
transition. To achieve this, she utilises techniques such as agent technology,
distributed optimisation, discrete events simulation, and AI. Additionally, she
is keen on exploring novel and innovative methods in this domain, including
bio-inspired and self-organisation algorithms.
