Knoop, V.L. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)New IT techniques allow communication and coordination between traffic measures. To best use this, one needs to coordinate over longer distances. Optimization of the measures is not possible using traditional microscopic or macroscopic simulation models. The Network Fundamental Diagram (NFD) describes the relation between flow and density on a...conference paper 2014

Van Wageningen-Kessels, F.L.M. (author), Van Lint, J.W.C. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), Vuik, C. (author)We propose and analyze a generic multi-class kinematic wave traffic flow model: Fastlane. The model takes into account heterogeneity among driver-vehicle units with respect to speed and space occupancy: long vehicles with large headways (e.g. trucks) take more space than short vehicles with short headways (e.g. passenger cars). Moreover, and...conference paper 2014

Liu, X. (author), Tzimiris, G. (author), Scarpas, T. (author), Hofman, R. (author), Voskuilen, J. (author)In order to adequately characterize the fatigue response of the various membranes with surrounding multilayer surfacing layers on orthotropic steel decks and collect the necessary parameters for FE modeling, the details of the cyclic Membrane Adhesion Tester (MAT) are introduced. The fatigue damage in membrane interface is related to the amount...conference paper 2014

Knoop, V.L. (author), Buisson, C. (author)Lane changes are important in traffic flow operations. They cause differences in flow over lanes and they may determine the onset of congestion. Therefore, it is relevant to have a lane change model for which the predictive power is confirmed. This article calibrates and validates a probabilistic discretionary lane change model, both...conference paper 2014

Molin, E.J.E. (author), Maat, K. (author)Successful bicycle stimulating policies may increase the need for bicycle parking capacity, especially at main railway stations located in city centers. A potential solution for this problem involves combining paid surveyed indoor parking near the platforms and free open-air parking without surveillance at larger distances. In this paper, the...conference paper 2014

Knoop, V.L. (author), De Jong, D.M. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)It is analyzed what the effect is of the exact network structure on the shape of the Network Fundamental Diagram (NFD). In order to do so, a tool is developed which can create random networks for which the aggregated properties are the same. Using this tool, different urban networks with the same properties are designed. They show different NFDs...conference paper 2014

Goni Ros, B. (author), Knoop, V.L. (author), Van Arem, B. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Sags are freeway sections along which the gradient changes significantly from downwards to upwards. The capacity of sags is significantly lower than the capacity of normal sections. As a result, sags often become bottlenecks in freeway networks, causing the formation of congestion in conditions of high traffic demand. Congestion results in a...conference paper 2014

Van Oort, N. (author), Brands, T. (author), De Romph, E. (author), Aceves Flores, J. (author)Nowadays, transport demand models do not explicitly evaluate the impacts of service reliability of transit. Service reliability of transit systems is adversely experienced by users, as it causes additional travel time and unsecure arrival times. Because of this, travelers are likely to perceive a higher utility from higher reliable transport...conference paper 2014

Van Wageningen-Kessels, F.L.M. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), Vuik, C. (author), Van Lint, J.W.C. (author)80 years ago, Bruce Greenshields presented the first traffic flow model at the Annual Meeting of the Highway Research Board. Since then, many models and simulation tools have been developed. We show a model tree with four families of traffic flow models, all descending from Greenshields' model. The tree shows the historical development of...lecture notes 2014

Van Meerten, C.H. (author)Netbeheerders en gemeenten plegen werkzaamheden voor de aanleg, onderhoud en vervanging van kleine ondergrondse infrastructuren. Zij doen dit om aan de vraag uit de maatschappij te kunnen voldoen en om de netwerken te laten functioneren in overeenstemming met de gestelde doelen, veiligheidseisen en wet- en regelgeving. Door de aanleg van...master thesis 2014

However, the majority of social science researchers has usually low programming experience. Thus, the procedure from data retrieval to knowledge extraction is not a...master thesis 2014

Elmendorp, R.J.M. (author)In the last 60 years many new technologies have entered the aerospace industry, but the overall aircraft design remained virtually unchanged. If we compare an aircraft built in the 1960's with the latest generation, they look strikingly similar. Only small evolutionary changes entered the commercial aircraft market. A lot of these changes are...master thesis 2014

van den Broek, T. (author)To compete more successfully with other sources of energy, a decrease in the costs of offshore wind energy needs to be achieved. Operation and maintenance costs represent a large share of these costs. In order to reduce these costs new developments and strategies are considered for operation and maintenance of wind turbine components. Condition...master thesis 2014
