Tierolf, Lars (author), Haer, Toon (author), Athanasiou, Panagiotis (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author), Botzen, W. J. Wouter (author), Aerts, Jeroen C.J.H. (author)In this study, we present a novel modeling framework that provides a stylized representation of coastal adaptation and migration dynamics under sea level rise (SLR). We develop an agent-based model that simulates household and government agents adapting to shoreline change and increasing coastal flood risk. This model is coupled to a gravity...journal article 2024

Meenakshi Sundaram, A. (author), Goncalves, J. E. (author), Ghorbani, Amineh (author), Verma, T. (author)Governments often use price-based policies such as tax-subsidies and rebates to encourage households to shift to renewable energy sources like rooftop solar photovoltaics (PV). These policies, however, have primarily benefited high-income homeowners, leaving others behind. This paper proposes leveraging social networks’ influence on attitudes...journal article 2024

Tan, Xinxin (author), Xiao, Shenbin (author), Yang, Yu (author), Khakzad, Nima (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Chen, Chao (author)Frequent unpredictable earthquake disasters such as the Turkey Earthquake in 2023 pose an increasing threat to oil tank farms since they may trigger major accidents and domino effects, resulting in casualties, economic losses, and environmental pollution. Unpredictable earthquakes are definitely difficult to prevent and thus resilience...journal article 2024

Mosteiro Romero, M.A. (author), Quintana, Matias (author), Stouffs, Rudi (author), Miller, Clayton (author)In a global context of increasing flexibility in the way workplaces and the districts in which they are located are used, there is a need for occupant-driven approaches to plan urban energy systems. Several authors have suggested the use of agent-based models (ABM) of building occupants in urban building energy simulations due to their...journal article 2024

Eslamizadeh, S. (author), Ghorbani, Amineh (author), Weijnen, M.P.C. (author)The importance of decreasing industrial CO2 footprints has become evident, as also highlighted in COP26. As such, the transition to renewable energy in the industrial sector is essential to meet the targets. To this aim, establishing industrial community energy systems (InCES) where industries collectively invest in a shared energy system is an...journal article 2023

De Bosscher, Benjamin C.D. (author), Mohammadi Ziabari, S.S. (author), Sharpanskykh, Alexei (author)Airport terminals are complex sociotechnical systems, in which humans interact with diverse technical systems. A natural way to represent them is through agent-based modeling. However, this method has two drawbacks: it entails a heavy computational burden and the emergent properties are often difficult to analyze. The purpose of our research...journal article 2023

Wang, S. (author), Correia, Gonçalo (author), Lin, H.X. (author)Automated Mobility-on-Demand (AMoD) systems, in which fleets of automated vehicles provide on-demand services, are expected to transform urban mobility systems. Motivated by the rapid development of AMoD services delivered by self-driving car companies, an agent-based model (ABM) has been developed to study the coexistence phenomena of...journal article 2022

Mekić, A. (author), Mohammadi Ziabari, S.S. (author), Sharpanskykh, Alexei (author)Discretionary activities such as retail, food, and beverages generate a significant amount of non-aeronautical revenue within the aviation industry. However, they are rarely taken into account in computational airport terminal models. Since discretionary activities affect passenger flow and global airport terminal performance, discretionary...journal article 2021

Raimbault, Juste (author), Broere, Joris (author), Somveille, Marius (author), Serna, Jesus Mario (author), Strombom, Evelyn (author), Moore, Christine (author), Zhu, B. (author), Sugar, Lorraine (author)Industrial symbiosis involves creating integrated cycles of by-products and waste between networks of industrial actors in order to maximize economic value, while at the same time minimizing environmental strain. In such a network, the global environmental strain is no longer equal to the sum of the environmental strain of the individual...journal article 2020

Janssen, S.A.M. (author), Matias, Diogo (author), Sharpanskykh, Alexei (author)Airports are attractive targets for terrorists, as they are designed to accommodate and process large amounts of people, resulting in a high concentration of potential victims. A popular method to mitigate the risk of terrorist attacks is through security patrols, but resources are often limited. Game theory is commonly used as a methodology...journal article 2020

Yang, Liu (author), Zhang, Lufeng (author), Philippopoulos-Mihalopoulos, Andreas (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), van Dam, Koen H. (author)Car-oriented transport infrastructure developments have had detrimental impacts on the public realm in terms of poor walkability and fractured leftover urban spaces. To build integrated transport infrastructure and public space systems with considering non-motorized travelers’ behavior, we present an integrated methodology incorporating an...journal article 2020

Poplavskaya, K. (author), Lago, Jesus (author), De Vries, Laurens (author)Market-based procurement of balancing services in Europe is prone to strategic bidding due to the relatively small market size and a limited number of providers. In the European Union, balancing markets are undergoing substantial regulatory changes driven the efforts to harmonize the market design and better align it with the goals of the...journal article 2020

Schnuelle, Christian (author), Kisjes, K.H. (author), Stuehrmann, Torben (author), Thier, Pablo (author), Nikolic, I. (author), Von Gleich, Arnim (author), Goessling-Reisemann, Stefan (author)The transition process towards renewable energy systems is facing challenges in both fluctuating electricity generation of photovoltaic and wind power as well as socio-economic disruptions. With regard to sector integration, solutions need to be developed, especially for the mobility and the industry sector, because their ad hoc...journal article 2020

Janssen, S.A.M. (author), Sharpanskykh, Alexei (author), Curran, R. (author)Security risk management is essential for ensuring effective airport operations. This article introduces AbSRiM, a novel agent-based modeling and simulation approach to perform security risk management for airport operations that uses formal sociotechnical models that include temporal and spatial aspects. The approach contains four main steps:...journal article 2019

Moncada Escudero, J.A. (author), Verstegen, J. A. (author), Posada Duque, J.A. (author), Junginger, M. (author), Lukszo, Z. (author), Faaij, A. (author), Weijnen, M.P.C. (author)The Brazilian government aims to increase the share of biofuels in the energy mix to around 18% by 2030, which implies an increase of ethanol production from currently 27 bln liters to over 50 bln liters per year. Biofuel policies play an important role in ethanol production, consumption, and investment in processing capacity. Nevertheless, a...journal article 2018

Moncada, J. A. (author), Junginger, M (author), Lukszo, Z. (author), Faaij, A (author), Weijnen, M.P.C. (author)Biofuel production is not cost competitive and thus requires governmental intervention. The effect of the institutional framework on the development of the biofuel sector is not yet well understood. This paper aims to analyze how biofuel production and production capacity could have evolved in Germany in the period 1992–2014. The effects of...journal article 2017

Bhagwat, P.C. (author), Marcheselli, A. (author), Richstein, J.C. (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), De Vries, Laurens (author)We analyze the effectiveness of a forward capacity market (FCM) with long-term contracts in an electricity market in the presence of a growing share of renewable energy. An agent-based model is used for this analysis. Capacity markets can compensate for the deteriorating incentive to invest in controllable power plants when the share of...journal article 2017

Greeven, Sebastiaan (author), Kraan, O.D.E. (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), Kwakkel, J.H. (author)Developing model-based narratives of society’s response to climate change is challenged by two factors. First, society’s response to possible future climate change is subject to many uncertainties. Second, we argue that society’s mitigation action emerge out of the actions and interactions of the many actors in society. Together, these two...journal article 2016
