Dr. Earl "Rusty"
Lee joined the University of Delaware’s
Department of Civil and
Environmental Engineering in September 2007 as an assistant
professor and was also appointed as Director of Advanced Traffic
Operations for the Delaware Center for Transportation. He
received his bachelor’s degree in nuclear engineering from
Rensselaer, before joining the Navy’s submarine service. His 24
year career, both active duty and reserve, included assignments
as Chief Engineer of the nuclear ballistic missile submarine,
James K. Polk, staff of the Commander, Submarine Force
Atlantic Fleet, and the staffs of the Commander, Navy Region
Hawaii and Nary Region Northeast, working in the development of
emergency response plans and overseeing training exercises. He
returned to Rensselaer in the fall of 2000 as a student and was
hired by the Institute in August 2001. He has a master’s degree
in Management and is pursuing a PhD in Decision Science and
Engineering Systems. Dr. Lee’s research interests include
applied operations research methodologies in the areas of
homeland security, hazards mitigation, and vulnerability;
technologies for collaborative decision making, with particular
emphasis on incident and emergency management; advanced traffic
engineering; intelligent transportation systems. He is teaching
in the areas of transportation engineering and project
management. |

| Dr. Stephen
Mensah attended the University of Delaware where he obtained both
his Masters and PhD in Transportation Engineering. His
research interest is Civil Infrastructure Systems, particularly the use of microsensor technology for structural
health monitoring. Advancements in microsensor technology
present opportunities to enhance asset management through
collaboration and rapid application of innovation.
Stephen's goal is to contribute to the drive towards sustainable
engineering. In addition to that, he is also interested in
the numerical techniques that facilitate the use of sensors in a
sensor network suite. He had worked as a
Transportation/Highway Engineer for Century Engineering (Hunt
Valley, MD) before joining DCT. |

| Dr. Qiang (Joshua) Li has 10 years of experience in the areas of pavement engineering, and infrastructure asset management. His research focuses on the application of interdisciplinary and advanced technologies into the integration of infrastructure design, construction, and management so as to develop modern sustainable pavements and transportation infrastructure assets. He was a key graduate member for the research projects of Implementing the New Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) in Arkansas. The comprehensive centralized database support system developed for MEPDG takes a lead in its area, which has attracted extensive attentions from AASHTO, FHWA, and various state DOTs. In addition, Dr. Li has conducted several research projects with advanced technologies into transportation infrastructures management, including digital image processing techniques, artificial intelligence techniques, Ground Penetration Radar (GPR), Microelectronic and Mechanical Systems (MEMS) based sensor technology, and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tagging technology. Upon graduation, he joined the University of Delaware as a postdoctoral researcher in July 2009 focusing on the implementation of transportation asset management for state and national levels. |
