About the Author

Dr. Ruey Long (Kelvin) Cheu graduated with a B.Eng.(Civil) degree with First Class Honor in 1978 and M.Eng degree in 1990 at The National University of Singapore (NUS). He earned his Ph.D. degree in Transportation Systems Engineering at the University of California, Irvine in 1994. He was a tenured faculty member at the Department of Civil Engineering at NUS until 2006 when he joined The University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP). He is currently a full Professor (with tenure) in the Department of Civil Engineering at UTEP. He is a Professional Engineer in the State of Texas, USA, and a Fellow of the American Society of Civil Engineers.

Dr. Cheu's diversed expertise includes Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), traffic operations, highway geometric design, transportation planning and transportation security. He has received external research funding of more than $6.1 million (as the principal investigator). Arising from these research projects, he has published more than 90 journal articles, more than 100 conference papers, graduated 11 Ph.D. students and more than 44 master students. The GoogleScholar ranks him among the top 20 most cited scholars in Transportation Engineering, with more than 5500 citations and an h-index of 38 (Feb 26, 2022). An independent study using SCOPUS data and published in PLOS Biology Journal in 2020 ranked Dr. Cheu among the world's top 2% most cited researchers in transportation.

When Dr. Cheu was a faculty member in NUS, he started the first ITS research program in Southeast Asia. He was the only principal investigator of Honda's carsharing project outside the University of California system. He also directed a research project funded by the Ministry of Defense, Singapore. His service to NUS included directing the dual masters degree program in logistics and supply chain management with Georgia Institute of Technology, and the graduate diploma program in aviation management with the Singapore Aviation Academy. He also served as a consultant to Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, Land Transport Authority of Singapore, and Shell Eastern Petroleum.

The UTEP community knows Dr. Kelvin Cheu as the pioneer of international education programs and interdisciplinary research, notably the dual masters degree program with Czech Technical University, funded by the U.S. Department of Education and the European Commission (the first international transportation dual masters program in a U.S. university, and the first engineering dual masters program in The University of Texas System) and the bi-national smart city study abroad program with University of Guadalajara, Mexico. His research portfolio at UTEP includes projects funded by the Texas Department of Transportation, El Paso Metropolitan Planning Organization, Federal Highway Administration, Department of Homeland Security, City of El Paso, National Science Foundation, and Partners of the Americas Foundation. In 2016, Dr. Cheu was named a Fellow of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) as "a pioneer in bringing artificial intelligence into the transportation engineering field…and a leader in educating students from underrepresented populations and minority groups". In the same year, he was appointed as the Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Transportation Science & Technology. In 2017, he becomes the Associate Director of two U.S. Department of Transportation's Tier 1 University Transportation Centers. In the same year, in recognition of his interdisciplinary work, he is elevated by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) to be its Senior Member.

Dr. Cheu has been teaching CE4340 Transportation Engineering, an introductory 3-semester-credit-hour course in the ABET-accredited Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering program at UTEP since 2006. This book is a compilation of his teaching materials which have been revised/updated numerous times over the past years.
