Local universities including, Liverpool University, Southeast university, Nanjing university, Tonji university and Monash university invites to the 1st workshop for sustainable construction in civil engineering on 6th June 2019.
Big congrats for Wenhua’s Faculty of Engineering Graduate Research International Travel Award!! Wenhua will visit Prof. Haris Koutsopoulos’s group at Northwest university, the US for 6 months.
The Transportation Research Board (TRB) 98th Annual Meeting will be held January 13–17, 2019, at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, in Washington, D.C.
Two PhD students(Wenhua Jiang and Chunliang Wu) and Three Masters students(Yan Xia, Huamei Zhu and Ning Xu) presented their research outcomes at TRB. Very well done, especially those from Joint Masters Program.
The latest subject rankings released through the the Centre of World University Rankings (for 2017) puts Monash in first place in the transportation field:

I am very glad that Tianqi Gu has been passed the mid-review. His research topic is “Inter Relationship between Shared Bike System and Mass Transit considering Traffic Condition” supervised by Prof. Graham Currie, and me. The chair (Prof. Geoff Rose) and the pannels (Dr. Nan Zheng and Dr. Ye Lu) were served for this event. Congratulation Tianqi and keep it up!!
Monash ITS welcomes Prof. Bart van Arem from Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands giving a speech to transport lovers at State Library in Melbourne.
Lecture Topic
Driverless vehicles and the future of urban transport: Beyond the Hype
Abstract
Melbourne faces a considerable challenge to maintain its much celebrated livability in the face of population growth. Transport is critical and smart solutions are needed. Autonomous or driverless vehicles are regularly promoted as the ‘solution’ to a wide range of urban transport challenges. Will we sleep walk into an urban mobility future defined for us by the driverless vehicle industry or make conscious choices about the role that advanced technology should play in creating a transport system to support the type of city we want Melbourne to become? This year’s Ogden Transport Lecture looks beyond the hype and draws insight from international research to put driverless vehicles and the future of urban mobility under the microscope.
Speaker Biography
Professor Bart van Arem has an international reputation for research that focuses on analysing and modelling the implications of intelligent vehicles. Bart is Director of the TU Delft Transport Institute and a Professor in the Department Transport & Planning, Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences, Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. He has held previous appointments at the University of Twente and in TNO, the Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research.
