Urban consolidation centres (UCCs) have been discussed over many years in city logistics literature. The amount of successful UCCs in the long-run were, and are, very scarce, though. Little is published on the practical issues and experiences of actually running a UCC and offering UCC-services. In the Netherlands, Binnenstadservice (BSS) runs...

Loudspeakers are usually placed in an environment unknown to the loudspeaker designers. Having knowledge on the room acoustic properties, e.g., the location of acoustic reflectors, allows to better reproduce the sound field as intended. Current state-of-the-art methods for room boundary detection using microphone measurements typically focus on...

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most sustained arrhythmia in the heart. On the surface electrocardiogram (ECG), AF is characterised by the irregular RR intervals and by fibrillatory waves or the absence of a P wave. Since AF is a progressive disease, timely and correct detection is crucial for AF treatment. Detailed insight into the areas of...

Aiming to handle the increasing variety and volume of railway infrastructure monitoring data, this paper explores the use of intelligent data fusion methods for automatic anomaly detection of railway catenaries. Three classical data dimensionality reduction methods, namely the principal component analysis (PCA), the autoencoder neural network,...

There are a large number of precast girder bridges in the Netherlands that are made continuous utilizing cast in situ layers and cross beams. When controlled by the Eurocode minimum shear reinforcement requirement, the majority of these bridges that were constructed before the 1970s have insufficient amount of transverse reinforcement, which...

For reinforced concrete members without shear reinforcement, the shear failure is characterized by the formation of a critical flexural shear crack. Recently experimental observations making use of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) by many researchers suggested the significance of geometric characteristics and kinematic conditions of critical...

Acoustic Emission (AE)-based crack tracking is a promising approach to locate cracks in concrete structures. Different from conventional AE, this approach uses AE activities during crack closure. But, AE activities during crack closure may be influenced by the number of load cycles and loading speed. This may challenge the applicability of AE...

The alkali-silica reaction (ASR) is a long-term deterioration process, which produces a hydrophilic and expansive gel causing damage. The ASR acts on concrete as an ageing phenomenon, modifying the material on the basis of its stress state. Focussing on the mechanical degradation of concrete, estimated trends for the mechanical properties in...

Randomized gossip (RG) based distributed averaging has been popular for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in multiple areas. With RG, randomly two adjacent nodes are selected to communicate and exchange information iteratively until consensus is reached. One way to improve the convergence speed of RG is to use greedy gossip with eavesdropping (GGE...

In this paper, we present preliminary results on the development of smart technology solutions for lower density railway lines. The goal is to reach a cost effective inspection and asset management to minimize maintenance<br/>interventions time/cost without dedicated inspection vehicles. The proposed methods include axle box acceleration...

In this paper we discuss rail condition monitoring based on axle box acceleration (ABA) measurements. We present three case studies. The first one in The Netherlands, the detection of local defects with different severity levels (squat A, squat B and squat C) is analysed. The second case from the Faurei testing ring in Romania, the detection of...

This paper describes a new method for the classification and identification of two major types of defects in composites, namely delamination and matrix cracks, by classification of the spectral features of fibre Bragg grating (FBG) signals. In aeronautical applications of composites, after a damage is detected, it is very useful to know the...

Most recent studies on fibre-reinforced self-compacting concrete agree on the impact of the casting conditions on the fibre orientation and distribution, and its consequence thereof on the structural performance. A substantial number of investigations are continuously contributing to gain experience on the use of flowable FRC for different...

A fully triaxial material model for concrete was implemented in a commercial finite element code. The only required input parameter was the cylinder compressive strength. The material model was suitable for non-linear finite element analyses of large concrete structures. The importance of including a crack closure algorithm was demonstrated on a...

Five years ago the project Cargo Hitching started with the goal to use the unused capacity of public transport passenger vehicles for freight and parcel transport. Like many new city logistics initiatives it is a difficult challenge to setup a profitable private business model. A rural pilot project was developed in the East of the Netherlands,...

Atrial electrograms are often used to gain understanding on the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). Using such electrograms, cardiologists can reconstruct how the depolarization wave-front propagates across the atrium. Knowing the exact moment at which the depolarization wavefront in the tissue reaches each electrode is an important aspect...

Average consensus algorithms are used in many distributed systems such as distributed optimization, sensor fusion and the control of dynamic systems. Consensus algorithms converge through an explicit exchange of state variables. In some cases, however, the state variables are confidential. In this paper, a privacy-preserving asynchronous...
