Biography
Dr. Meng Wang is Assistant Professor at the Department of Transport & Planning at the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences, Delft University of Technology since 2015. He obtained his Bachelor degree in Tsinghua University, MSc degree in Research Institute of Highway (RIOH), Ministry of Transport, China and PhD with Cum Laude at Delft University of Technology, all in Civil Engineering. Before he started his academic career, he also worked at National Centre for Intelligent Transport System at RIOH for three years. His main research interests are driver behaviour theory; modelling & design & assessment of automated and connected vehicle systems for safe and efficient traffic. Over the last five years, he has focused on control design for partially automated driving systems, in particular Adaptive Cruise Control and Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control systems and impact assessment of such systems on traffic-flow characteristics via an analytical approach and traffic simulations. He has won several awards, including IEEE ITS Society Best PhD Dissertation Award, Outstanding Oversea PhD Student Award by Chinese Scholarship Council, IEEE ITS Conference Best Paper Award, ITS World Congress Best Paper Award. He holds a guest research position at the Department of BioMechanical Engineering, TU Delft and a guest researcher position at RIOH. He is actively involved in several projects under Dutch Automated Vehicle Initiative.
