Gonçalo Homem de Almeida Rodriguez Correia

Dr. Gonçalo H. A. Correia has graduated from Técnico Lisbon, Portugal, in civil engineering. He did his Ph.D. in Transportation Systems at the same University in close connection with the MIT-Portugal program. He was then invited as an Assistant Professor at the University of Coimbra, Portugal, where he lectured and developed his first independent research. He is currently an Associate Professor at the Department of Transport & Planning at the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences at the Delft University of Technology, in the Netherlands. His main research interest is in the planning and operations of transport systems in urban environments with the objective of sustainable development. He focuses particularly on studying the use of Transport Demand Management strategies, innovative services, and technologies, such as ridesharing, carsharing, and automated vehicles, to tackle urban traffic congestion and associated emissions, which he studies using mainly operations research (mathematical optimization and simulation), data-driven AI methods, and behavior modeling. At TU Delft he is particularly looking at the impacts of automated driving and electric vehicles on mobility and urban development. He has been a member of numerous research projects such as the V2G-QUESTS (Vehicle to Grid for Equitable Zero-Emission Transitions in Positive Energy Districts) and MetaCCAZE (Flexibly adapted MetaInnovations, use cases, collaborative business and governance models to accelerate shared Zero Emission mobility for passengers and freight) where he acted as Principal Investigator. He has supervised successfully 14 Ph.D. theses and more than 75 master thesis projects in Portugal and the Netherlands. He is the author of more than 100 journal papers mostly in journals indexed in WoS, including reputed journals such as Transportation Research Part A, B, C, D, and Eqiaochu qiaoch (edited by Elsevier). He has been the editor-in-chief of the open-access Journal of Advanced Transportation (Wiley-Hindawi) and is currently the editor-in-chief of a new journal published by Nature: npj Sustainable Mobility and Transport. He is part of the editorial board of several international journals including Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review, and Transportation Research Part C: Emerging Technologies. He has taught 18 courses in bachelor, master, and Ph.D. programs both in Portugal, the Netherlands, and China in the fields of operations research, transport modeling, and transport planning. He has coordinated the Traffic and Transportation Engineering (TTE) track of the master program in Civil Engineering at TU Delft. The University is in the top 5 universities in the Shanghai ranking of Transportation Science & Technology. He has been an invited Lecturer at Beijing Jiaotong University in China and Purdue University in the United States. He advises several companies and institutions on the future of mobility, and he is an international speaker on the impacts of mobility innovations. Gonçalo is head of the section Transportation, Mobility, and Logistics (TML) and co-directs the hEAT lab (research on electric and automated transport) that is part of the Department of Transport & Planning at TU Delft (https://www.tudelft.nl/citg/heat-lab/)..)
