Meijnema, Marc (author)Local governments hardly have a clear overview of their current progress in reducing emissions. This could be explained by the inadequacy of available tools. To address this issue, this research used a design cycle to explore the development of a feasible and useful method for allocating emissions in the road freight transport subsector. Four...master thesis 2024

Skoulas, Vasileios (author)Long truck queues and congestion around terminals is a common sight, however they come with many negative externalities for all the stakeholders involved. Truck Appointment System (TAS) is the most commonly used system to face these problems, but it still has some drawbacks and limitations. Consequently, in this research an extension of the...master thesis 2024

Duijn, Kevin (author)In order to fulfill the climate commitments outlined in the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, there is a pressing need to substantially reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions worldwide. Among these GHG emissions, CO2 contributes for 75% of the total Greenhouse Gas emissions. The transport sector accounts for 22% of these CO2 emissions. Despite the...master thesis 2023

Warringa, Bob (author)Modern manufacturing operations rely on accurate, real time data for efficient operation and control of the production process. Many small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) still operate with legacy assets, limiting their access to a clear data picture. This thesis research and its design solutions help SMEs gain real time insights into their...master thesis 2023

van der Storm, Geraldine (author)In the upcoming years the Municipality of Amsterdam has to cope with renovation works to approximately 200 kilometers of quay walls and 800 bridges. These projects need to be executed in the least burdensome manner, which is why executing parties are obliged to perform their construction logistics via waterways instead of the road. Stakeholders...master thesis 2023

Otten, Janske (author)Heavy-duty road transport needs to make a transition to become climate neutral in 2050. Not considering the negative impact on the environment, road transport remains a competitive way of transportation in the hinterland of maritime ports. Policymakers and strategists of the Port Authority have a lack of knowledge to decarbonize heavy-duty...master thesis 2023

Webbers, Jesse (author)Since the commercialisation of air travel, demand for air transport is increasing. Optimal system capacity utilisation at airports has therefore become crucial. As available resources such as land, buildings and human are scarce and airline tickets need to be financially affordable, airports optimise their system while maximising capacity within...master thesis 2023

de Kerpel, Ella (author)A rapid increase in international trade volumes during recent years has led to truck congestion at container terminals’ gates during peak hours. This has consequences on the costs of trucking companies waiting long times behind the gates. Furthermore, it leads to containers arriving too late at the hinterland, a lower port attractiveness and...master thesis 2022
