Ashkrof, P. (author)
This PhD thesis delves into the intricate realm of supply-side behavioural dynamics and operations within the ride-sourcing system. It investigates drivers' pivotal decisions, focusing on ride acceptance and relocation choices at the operational level. By leveraging a unique dataset, novel theories on ride-sourcing drivers’ behaviour are...

Razmi Rad, S. (author)
Dedicated lanes have been proposed as a potential scenario for the deployment of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) on the road network. However, knowledge on the design and operation of DLs and their impacts on the behaviour of drivers of CAVs and manual vehicles is lacking in the literature. This dissertation provides a research agenda on...

Chen, N. (author)
The aim of the thesis is to design coordination strategies for connected automated vehicles near on-ramps considering controller performance, safe lane changing conditions, maneuver planning, and trajectory control. CAVs have enhanced situation awareness with their onboard detection units and vehicle-to-everything communications. They have the...

Wang, Y. (author)
People are engaged in a variety of activities through space every day. The choice of type and location of activities is known as human spatial behavior. Urban decision makers need to understand how land use and transportation systems can shape human spatial behavior in order to design better systems. In the past, they have collected mobility...

Nuñez Velasco, J.P. (author)
This dissertation aims to understand the behavior of pedestrians and cyclists when interacting with automated vehicles (AVs). The role of AVs’ characteristics such as their physical appearance, whether a driver is present, the presence of external communication interfaces, and factors pertaining to the behavior of the vehicle were investigated...

Traffic congestion on motorways has become a common phenomenon across the world. Congestion on motorways is a major discomfort to road users and causes many problems such as reducing the capacity of the motorways, increasing travel times and fuel consumption leading to high economic and societal costs. Alleviating congestion and providing better...

Automated vehicles (AVs) are on the horizon, and they are expected to deliver traffic safety and efficiency benefits to transportation systems. There are different automation levels for AVs based on the functionalities of the automation systems and their operating design domain (i.e., on which conditions these functionalities can be realized)....

Xiao, L. (author)
Traffic congestion causes detrimental effects on economy and society in terms of travel time delay, increased vehicle collision risk and increased air pollution. To tackle that, new intelligent transportation systems are being developed. One of these emerging technologies comprise automated driving systems. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC),...

Mullakkal-Babu, F.A. (author)
The past three decades have witnessed the emergence of several automotive applications that take over the task of vehicle driving on a sustained basis. The most advanced class of such applications is known as Automated Driving Systems (ADSs). ADS can autonomously operate the vehicle on road stretches that fall under its operational design domain...

Nordhoff, S. (author)
The acceptance of automated vehicles is a necessary condition for realizing the benefits of road vehicle automation. The objective of the thesis was to examine the acceptance of automated vehicles feeding public transport. The thesis investigated the factors contributing to user acceptance, as well as the interrelations of those factors. It was...

Winter, M.K.E. (author)
Self-driving vehicles could make the operation of public transport services in a more flexible manner more affordable. Introducing shared automated vehicles would al¬low operating a fleet of smaller vehicles in a demand responsive manner. This could potentially impact the way we use and operate public transport services, which could eventually...

Liang, X. (author)
In recent years, technology development has accelerated the future roll-out of vehicle automation. An automated vehicle (AV), also known as a driverless car and a self-driving car is an advanced type of vehicle that can drive itself on existing roads. A possible area of application for AVs is public transport. The concept of automated taxis (ATs...

Varotto, S.F. (author)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and automated vehicles can contribute to reduce traffic congestion and accidents. Field operational Tests have shown that drivers may prefer to deactivate ACC systems that are inactive at low speeds in dense traffic conditions and before changing lanes. These transitions between automated and manual driving are...

van der Gun, J.P.T. (author)
Emergencies disrupting urban transportation systems cause management problems for authorities. This thesis develops simulation methods that permit analysis thereof and evaluation of candidate management plans, tested in three case studies. It formulates a methodological framework using agent-based choice models and multimodal macroscopic dynamic...

Heikoop, D.D. (author)
With the rapid increase in vehicle automation technology, the call for understanding how humans behave while driving in an automated vehicle becomes more urgent. Vehicles that have automated systems such as Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) or Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) not only support drivers in their journey, but also place them in a passive...

Smits, E.-S. (author)
In the last decade the Netherlands has experienced an economic recession. Now, in 2017, the economy is picking up again. This growth does not only come with advantages because economic growth demands more from the transport system. Congestion is increasing again, the capacity of the train system is now insufficient during peak hours, and the...

Goni-Ros, B. (author)
Sag vertical curves (sags) are roadway sections along which the gradient increases gradually in the direction of traffic. Empirical observations show that, on freeways, traffic congestion often occurs at sags; actually, in some countries (e.g., Japan), sags are one of the most common types of freeway bottleneck. This thesis is the outcome of a...

Schakel, W.J. (author)
With the use of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), traffic efficiency may be improved. This thesis presents an advisory system using advice on headway, speed and lane, in order to prevent potential problems 1-2km downstream. Current systems operate on smaller scale (e.g. Adaptive Cruise Control) or larger scale (e.g. route advice). With...
