Low drag bluff road vehicle design can be obtained effectively and efficiently with a three phase approach that uses numerical simulations, scaled wind tunnel experiments and full-scale road testing. By applying this generalised method, SideWings were developed for an improved trailer underbody flow and tails for the trailer's rear-end. A...

Think global act locally, it is a phrase used to promote the concept of sustainable community. A sustainable community is often defined as a community which uses its resources to meet current needs without compromising the ability of resource usages of future generations to meet their own needs. However, pragmatic evidence has showed that it has...

The Paintal (1967) formula can be used to estimate transport rates of coarse-grained bed material (such as stones from a bed protection) under low hydraulic loads just above the threshold of motion; the application however is limited to steady currents. This paper presents research aimed at extending the range of application to a combination of...

The OTB’s research covers the areas of housing, urban, mobility and geo-studies. The research activities deal with the built environment, and refer to aspects of the technological sciences, the policy and management sciences, the behavioural sciences, spatial disciplines and the application of information and communications technology. This...

Swift changes in the regulations and the organization of the transport sector make innovation an absolute necessity. A company’s ability to cope with these changes depends largely on the learning capacity of the organization. Therefore in the transport case described in this paper the company decided that reengineering of the learning strategy...

For the last five years the technology factor (by which is meant both process and product innovation) has received renewed attention in the transport sector as society is confronted with new challenges. This leads to a call for change and transitions. Technology is considered as a potential answer to new needs and new problems, like the...

The integration of Spatial Equilibrium models and Freight transport network models is important to produce consistent scenarios for future freight transport demand. At various spatial scales, we see the changes in production, trade, logistics networking and transportation, being driven by mass-individualization and changes in factor costs. In...

Over the past two decades many papers are published in the area of ICTs impact on travel behaviour. Literature focusing on the impacts of ICT on accessibility is relatively scarce. In this paper we give an overview of impacts of ICT on four components of accessibility as distinguished by Geurs and Van Wee (2004): (1) the land-use component, (2)...

In the last decade the importance of attitude-related residential self-selection has frequently been recognized. In addition people can theoretically self select them with respect to other location choices, such as job locations, with respect to travel behavior, or with respect to the exposure to transport externalities such as noise and...

Lorries are great for transporting goods, but their inferior aerodynamics means they get fewer kilometers a liter of fuel. Bad news indeed for the environment, and for hauliers purses. But according to researchers at Delft University of Technology, cones and wings attached to the rear end along with technical tricks suspended under the vehicle...

The simulation of the tracer transport process is an increasingly important tool to predict the distribution of pollution released in coastal waters. The equation that governs the tracer transport is the advection-diffusion equation. Thanks to the tremendous developments in computer resources and in computing techniques, it has become possible...

In this thesis, transport infrastructure slot allocation has been studied, focusing on selection slot allocation, i.e. on longer-term slot allocation decisions determining the traffic patterns served by infrastructure bottlenecks, rather than timetable-related slot allocation problems. The allocation of infrastructure capacity among carriers is...

Planning can be a valuable tool for supporting a wide array of real-world problems, such as logistics, manufacturing and control. However, these applications are often highly dynamic, resulting in plans that require updating. In such situations, plan repair methods can be used to adapt the plan. In this paper, we propose a general framework for...

Public transport has to be succesfull to maintain mobility in todays dense urban areas. Many scientific disciplines make contributions on how to achieve that success, with diverse and sometime contradictory recommendations. The thesis shows how policy makers can use the existing recommendations to improve the overall performance of public...

De directie Zuid-Holland van Rijkswaterstaat heeft tot taak om een beheerplan, het z.g. 'Beheerplan Nat', voor haar beheersgebied op te stellen. In een dergelijk 'Beheerplan Nat' wordt in tien stappen een vertaalslag gemaakt van het beleid uit 'Den Haag' naar het werk in het 'veld'. In een van de eerste stappen worden hiervoor streefbeelden...
