Narayan S., Jishnu (author), Cats, O. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)The recent emergence of innovative mobility solutions is changing the mobility landscape in urban areas. However, it remains unknown how the combined operation of private and pooled on-demand services affect service performance and the required dimensioning of the fleet size for such services. This study develops a model to determine the...journal article 2020

Shelat, S. (author), Cats, O. (author), van Oort, N. (author), van Lint, J.W.C. (author)Identifying the set of alternatives from which travellers choose their routes is a crucial step in estimation and application of route choice models. These models are necessary for the prediction of network flows that are vital for the planning of public transport networks. However, choice set identification is typically difficult because...conference paper 2019

Narayan S., Jishnu (author), Cats, O. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)The emergence of innovative mobility services, is changing the way people travel in urban areas. Such systems offer on-demand service (door-To-door or stop-To-stop, individual or shared) to passengers. In addition to providing flexible services to passengers, past studies suggested that such services could effectively absorb the demand for...conference paper 2019

Rijsman, Lotte (author), van Oort, N. (author), Ton, D. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), Molin, E.J.E. (author), Teijl, Thomas (author)Pollution and congestion are important issues in urban mobility. These can potentially be solved by multimodal transport, such as the bicycle-Transit combination, which benefits from the flexible aspect of the bicycle and the wider spatial range of public transport. In addition, the bicycle can increase the catchment areas of public transport...conference paper 2019

Imran, Aishah Mahyarni (author), van Oort, N. (author), Cats, O. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), Van Der Pot, Pieter (author)Vehicle bunching often occurs in high-frequency transit systems leading to deterioration of service reliability. It is thus necessary to control vehicles during operations. Holding control is a common solution for this situation, but it may result in longer vehicle running times. Speed adjustments can contribute to more regular operations...conference paper 2019

van der Werff, Ellen (author), van Oort, N. (author), Cats, O. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Reliability is a key determinant of the quality of a transit service. Control is needed to deal with the stochastic nature of high-frequency bus services and to improve service reliability. This study focuses on holding control, both schedule- and headway-based strategies. An assessment framework is developed to systematically assess the effect...journal article 2019

(author)The impact of on-demand urban transport services on traffic reduction will depend on the willingness to share (WTS) of individuals. However, the extent to which individuals are willing to share remains largely unknown. By means of a stated preference experiment, this study analyses the WTS of respondents by comparing their preferences towards...conference paper 2019

(author)This paper presents a review of research and models regarding sustainability of railway passenger services. In order to take into account all relevant aspects in terms of environmental impacts of a railway passenger service, a holistic system perspective is required, that includes a whole life cycle assessment. A life cycle approach is important...conference paper 2019

Yap, M.D. (author), Luo, D. (author), Cats, O. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Minimizing passenger transfer times through public transport (PT) transfer synchronization is important during tactical planning and real-time control. However, there are computational challenges for solving this Timetable Synchronization Problem (TSP) for large, real-world urban PT networks. Hence, in this study we propose a data-driven,...journal article 2019

Dixit, M. (author), Brands, T. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Cats, O. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Urban transit networks typically consist of multiple modes and the journeys may involve a transfer within or across modes. Therefore, the passenger experience of travel time reliability is based on the whole journey experience including the transfers. Although the impact of transfers on reliability has been highlighted in the literature, the...journal article 2019
