Long Bio

Abdel Ra'ouf Mayyas is an Associate Professor of automotive engineering at the Polytechnic School at Arizona State University (ASU-TPS). He is also on the graduate faculty for the Human Systems Engineering (HSE) PhD program. He is also led as a lead faculty advisor for the Arizona State University-Advanced Vehicle Technology EcoCAR 3 Program during the period 2014-2018.

Mayyas received his doctorate in 2010 from Automotive Engineering Department at Clemson University-International Center for Automotive Research “CU-ICAR” with focus on method of advanced vehicle testing. After graduation Mayyas worked as a postdoctoral scholar at CU-ICAR for two years with a focus on developing new testing strategies for on-board hybrid eclectic powertrains called “Vehicle Hardware In-the-Loop” VHiL. Mayyas led several funded projects by the U.S. Army Automotive Research Center ARC and the Toyota Motor Corp. TMC. Mayyas’s work is well published in the Journals of Energy Research, Applied Energy and the Journal of Power Sources. Mayyas' current research interests include motion planning and motion control of automated drive system, shared mobility, vehicle automation & connectivity, and energy optimization of connected and automated vehicles.
