Reserve fleet capacity

Groeneveld, Diederick (author)

Airline reserve fleet capacity is a wide spread phenomenon and is used to limit the impact of delays on the planned flight schedule. This paper focuses on reserve fleet capacity in the form of standby unscheduled air craft. By means of a Monte Carlo simulation on an existing flight schedule using a rule-based delay mitigation model the...

Designing an agent-based model to help determine what urban heat island mitigation solutions can best be implemented in existing urban areas

Groeneveld, Bart (author)

The Urban Heat Island effect increases the air temperature in cities compared to rural areas because cities have a lot more hardened surfaces than rural areas. As the amount of people living in cities increases and the global air temperatures rise, these negative effects will increase and mitigation action has to be taken. This research...

Light-Sensitive Phenacyl Crosslinked Dextran Hydrogels for Controlled Delivery**

Breve, T. (author), Filius, M. (author), Weerdenburg, S. (author), van der Griend, Stefan J. (author), Groeneveld, T. (author), Denkova, A.G. (author), Eelkema, R. (author)

Stimuli-responsive soft materials enable controlled release of loaded drug molecules and biomolecules. Controlled release of potent chemotherapeutic or immunotherapeutic agents is crucial to reduce unwanted side effects. In an effort to develop controlled release strategies that can be triggered by using Cerenkov luminescence, we have...

Generalisation of Hydrography Networks for a Vario-scale Basemap

Groeneveld, IJsbrand (author)

The vario-scale concept has proved an alternative for the well known discrete multi-scale solution. However the vario-scale concept is still ongoing research and requires further development e.g. on how to generate better content for vario-scale maps? This research does focus on how to incorporate hydrography networks in the vario-scale solution...
