Biography
Sunil Patil is an analyst in the Cambridge office of RAND Europe. Prior to joining RAND Europe, he worked as a research assistant with the Texas Transportation Insititute while working toward his Ph.D. from Texas A&M University. His areas of interest include transportation pricing (HOV, HOT lanes, variable pricing), transportation demand modelling, stated preference survey designs, and genetic algorithms. In his dissertation he focused on estimation of value of travel time savings of the travelers of HOT lanes facing urgent travel situations.
