Lee D. Han

 
 

I study topics related to the operations, safety, energy, infrastructure, and sustainability aspects of transportation.  My interests are to understand and define the problems and then devise ways to help solve or mitigate these problems.  This web site provides some information reflecting my research, teaching, and other activities.  There are also other seemingly random items provided here, which I hope you’ll find interesting, if not always readily useful.


Anyway, if you don’t see what you’re looking for, please feel free to contact me.
