About

Dr. Mihalis Golias is a leading researcher in transportation systems engineering, with a primary focus on last-mile logistics, autonomous vehicle adoption, and consumer behavior modeling. His most impactful work, "Evaluating public acceptance of autonomous delivery robots during COVID-19 pandemic" (2020, 225 citations), provided critical early insights into how health crises accelerate technology adoption, revealing key factors driving public trust in contactless delivery systems. This study has become foundational for policymakers and logistics firms navigating pandemic-era disruptions. More recently, his integrated MDCEV-HCM approach (2025) advances the field by simultaneously modeling shopping, delivery demand, and last-mile preferences—a methodological breakthrough that captures complex consumer trade-offs. Dr. Golias’s research uniquely bridges behavioral economics and infrastructure planning, offering data-driven solutions for sustainable urban freight. His work has been instrumental in shaping autonomous delivery regulations and e-commerce logistics strategies, earning him recognition as a thought leader in smart mobility. With over 230 citations across his portfolio, his contributions continue to influence both academic discourse and real-world transportation policy.
