About Me

I am Yi Long (ιΎ™ζ―…), a PhD student in Urban Mobility at Tongji University. I joined the program in September 2025 and am advised by Shaozhi Hong.

My research examines how the built environment shapes travel behavior, with particular interests in agent-based modeling, applied machine learning, and resilience-oriented urban analysis.

If you would like to discuss research, collaboration, or academic exchange, feel free to contact me at longyi.cn@outlook.com.

I also serve as a reviewer for Transportation, Applied Spatial Analysis and Policy, and BMC Public Health.

I am actively seeking opportunities for a CSC-funded joint PhD program or visiting scholar position to broaden my research collaboration and international exchange.

Academic Background

  • Sep 2025 - Jun 2029: PhD in Urban Mobility, Tongji University, supervised by Shaozhi Hong.
  • Sep 2022 - Jun 2025: MEng in Civil Engineering and Water Conservancy, Chengdu University of Technology, supervised by Yibin Ao.

Research Interests

  • Built environment and travel behavior: I study how neighborhood form, accessibility, and surrounding facilities shape daily travel decisions through machine learning and agent-based modeling.
  • Travel behavior resilience under disasters: I use large-scale data to examine how travelers respond to disruptive events and how adaptive strategies vary across groups and contexts.
  • Built environment, EV charging infrastructure, and urban energy resilience: I explore how planning, mobility systems, and charging infrastructure can be coordinated to support low-carbon and resilient urban development.
