Ceha, Marlou (author)Tourists travelling by airplane contribute significantly to the CO2 emissions. The number of flights covering longer distances is rising and, consequently, implies more energy consumption. This leads to a greater environmental impact compared to flights covering shorter distances. Although people are expected to continue travelling, adjusting...master thesis 2024

Six, Pascale (author)Plastic is one of the major pollutants in the world and currently, more than 300 million tons of plastic are produced worldwide (Miandad et al. 2019). Since only 9.5% of plastic waste is being recycled, littering has caused a lot of non-recyclable plastics (NRP) that wander around damaging the environment and ending up in landfills, oceans and...master thesis 2024

Xue, Fei (author), Yao, Enjian (author), Cherchi, Elisabetta (author), Correia, Gonçalo (author)Difficulty in finding parking spaces and high parking fees discourage private car usage. Fully autonomous vehicles (AVs) capable of self-parking away from destinations will likely remove this barrier. Despite extensive survey-based research on AVs in recent years, existing literature has not sufficiently addressed the potential impact of new...journal article 2024

Ozturker, M. (author), Correia, Gonçalo (author), van Arem, B. (author)In the present study, we explored the influence of ride experience in automated minibuses (AmBs) on transport mode choice that includes the automated shuttles as well as conventional transport options (car, bus and bicycle) on the first-/ last-mile stage of rail trips. We used the case study of the connection between Brandevoort train station...journal article 2024

Eichler, Aaron (author)The implementation of a bus system is an attractive alternative for decision makers since it has a short lead time and the service can be easily adapted depending on the demand. Due to the flexible nature it allows for the use of fulfilling different magnitudes of demand. Usually bus service provide a lower level quality service, however busses...master thesis 2023

van Zeijl, Lola (author)The development of automated cars has introduced the potential to reduce global CO2 emissions by enhancing driving efficiency. However, counter-research suggests that this may lead to increased CO2 emissions due to higher speeds and highway congestion. This research examines the impact of automated cars on train travel, focusing on their unique...master thesis 2023

Liebe, Ulf (author), van Cranenburgh, S. (author), Chorus, C.G. (author)Empirical studies on individual behaviour often, implicitly or explicitly, assume a single type of decision rule. Other studies do not specify behavioural assumptions at all. We advance sociological research by introducing (random) regret minimization, which is related to loss aversion, into the sociological literature and by testing it against ...journal article 2023

Molin, E.J.E. (author), Kroesen, M. (author)To minimize the risk of becoming infected by the Coronavirus while traveling by train, the national government and the Dutch railways' operator (NS) in the Netherlands have taken several policy measures. These involve that passengers have to wear masks and guidelines are issued for working at home and teaching online. In addition, other policy...journal article 2022

Shelat, S. (author), Cats, O. (author), van Cranenburgh, S. (author)With a few exceptions, public transport ridership around the world has been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. Travellers are now likely to adapt their behaviour with a focus on factors that contribute to the risk of COVID-19 transmission. Given the unprecedented spatial and temporal scale of this crisis, these changes in behaviour may even...journal article 2022

Hoobroeckx, Tom (author)Free-floating moped sharing systems are becoming more and more popular and provide new ways to travel inside urban areas. The vehicles offer the flexibility of one-way transportation, though the downside is that it creates a spatiotemporal imbalance of the vehicle distribution within the system. The operators of such systems are challenged to...master thesis 2021

Ouyang, Sicong (author)The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 seriously impacted the world. Some previous researches suggest that global incidents could strongly influence the demand for passenger air transport services (Sobieralski, 2020). And the impacts on the demand can be ascribed to the change in the air travel behaviour of travellers (Ito & Lee, 2005...master thesis 2021

van de Wiel, Thijs (author)The number of passengers using public transport has decreased drastically as a consequence of the global coronavirus pandemic in 2020. This study aimed to retrieve the importance of the perceived risk of getting infected with the coronavirus in choosing to go by train in the Netherlands. With a Hierarchical Information Integration approach it...master thesis 2021

Fayyaz, Muhammad (author), Bliemer, Michiel C.J. (author), Beck, Matthew J. (author), Hess, Stephane (author), van Lint, J.W.C. (author)Surveys with stated choice experiments (SCE) are widely used to derive values of time and reliability for transport project appraisal purposes. However, such methods ask respondents to make hypothetical choices, which in turn could create a bias between choices made in the experiment compared to those in an environment where the choices have...journal article 2021

Huang, B. (author), Gerard Meijssen, Aart (author), Annema, J.A. (author), Lukszo, Z. (author)Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology could turn electric vehicles (EVs) into a potentially valuable solution to the problem of increased load demand caused by large-scale EV integration. Successful market penetration of V2G relies not only on developing the technology itself, but also on EV drivers' willingness to participate in this technology....journal article 2021

Pham, Dang Khoa (author)The manufacturing process, supply chain and consumption pattern of fashion impose high risks on the environment. Besides, the utilization of cheap labor in developing countries by Western fashion brands entails great concern about labor rights of sweatshop workers. To tackle the daunting sustainable issues in fashion industry, various nascent...master thesis 2020

Rusman, Esmee (author)Worldwide, material consumption has expanded rapidly. The Netherlands has become wealthier, citizens can afford more products and therefore the amount of municipal solid waste (MSW) increased enormously. The distribution of MSW is associated with environmental problems and health risks. MSW consists of everyday items disposed by households, such...master thesis 2020

Ho-Sam-Sooi, Nick (author)Given the significant privacy and security risks of IoT devices, it seems desirable to nudge consumers towards buying more secure devices and taking privacy into account when purchasing these devices. In order to support this goal, this study has examined the effect of security and privacy on IoT device purchase behaviour and assessed whether...master thesis 2020

Molin, E.J.E. (author), Adjenughwure, Kingsley (author), de Bruyn, Menno (author), Cats, O. (author), Warffemius, Pim (author)Many studies about conducting activities while traveling start from the hypothesis that conducting onboard activities reduces the value of time (VoT). However, surprisingly limited empirical evidence is provided for this hypothesis. The few studies that aim at providing this evidence face methodological problems in the sense that effects...journal article 2020
