Rosolino Vaiana earned his degree in Civil Engineering cum laude (2000) from Palermo Uni-versity, Italy, and his Ph.D. from Palermo University (2004). Dr. Vaiana joined the University of Calabria (Arcavacata Campus, Cosenza, Italy) at the Depart-ment of Civil Engineering becoming assistant professor of Highways, Railways and Air-ports Engineering in 2005. Since October 1, 2022, Dr. Vaiana is an associate professor. His primary research activity addresses the themes related to road pavement materials, characterization of road surface performance (friction, drain-ability, rolling noise, etc), and construction technology. The use of recycled materials and low-impact solutions is of great importance. Moreover, in the field of road design, Dr. Vaiana developed two main research topics: one is related to the functional and geometric study of roundabout junctions by traffic microsimulation software; the other is about road safety and driver behavior. At the University of Calabria, he performs teaching activities since 2005 about these subjects: founda-tions of road infrastructures (first cycle degree (L) in Civil Engineer-ing) and road pavement design and maintenance (second cycle degree (L) in Civil Engineering). He was and is currently a Ph.D. thesis supervisor.
