Chetouani, Israe (author), van Duin, Ron (author), Vleugel, J (author), van Wee, G.P. (author), van Son, C.B.H. (author), Arends, H.H. (author)In the coming years, cities will have to deal with transportation challenges in terms of accessibility and sustainability. Passenger and freight transport are expected to increase, while the transport sector is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and congestion in cities. Although historically both ecosystems (passenger transport and...conference paper 2023

Mendes Borges, R. (author), Quaglietta, E. (author)The Hyperloop is a concept of a ground transportation system consisting of capsules (called pods) traveling at very high-speeds in near-vacuum tubes. The hyperloop aims to be a fast, cheap, and sustainable alternative to short-haul flights and high-speed rail. The small pod size requires very high frequencies to respond to future high levels of...conference paper 2021

Alons-Hoen, Kristel (author), Somers, Guy (author), van Duin, Ron (author)This article shows the results of our study to determine the general level of synchromodal maturity for shippers and logistics service providers operating in The Netherlands and Belgium. A questionnaire was used to assess the maturity of synchromodal transport for 41. This research extends the literature by applying the model to a broader...conference paper 2021

Quaglietta, E. (author), Goverde, R.M.P. (author)Virtual Coupling is a next-generation signalling concept conceived to increase railway capacity by bringing moving-block operations one step further to separating trains by a relative braking distance, like cars on the road. Thanks to a Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication layer, trains can move in virtually coupled platoons which can be...conference paper 2020

Zubin, I. (author), van Arem, B. (author), Wiegmans, B. (author), van Duin, Ron (author)The term last-mile delivery refers to the final leg of a business-to-customer service, in which products are shipped from a depot to a destination point by means of land transportation, such as vans and small trucks. Although these vehicles provide a common and easy way to consign products, companies are striving for new transport technologies...conference paper 2020

Kiel, Jan (author), Taale, Henk (author)In Europe, different road authorities have to face the ever increasing pressure to integrate their road network service provision with - often conflicting - different trends and conditions such as congestion, climate change, individualism, urbanization, safety, environmental issues and economic growth. There is also a need to cooperate with...conference paper 2019

Snelder, M. (author), Wilmink, Isabel (author), van der Gun, J.P.T. (author), Bergveld, Hendrik Jan (author), Hoseini, Parvin (author), van Arem, B. (author)This paper presents a model specifically developed to explore the mobility impacts of connected and automated driving and shared mobility. It is an explorative iterative model that uses an elasticity model for destination choice, a multinomial logit model for mode choice and a network fundamental diagram to assess traffic impacts. To the best...conference paper 2019

Quaglietta, E. (author)The ever-increasing need for railway capacity has led infrastructure managers to explore next generation signaling systems to drastically reduce train separation by overcoming traditional fixed-block railway operations. Technologies like ETCS Level 3 are under development to bring the railways to a configuration without track-side signaling...conference paper 2019

Feng, Y. (author), Duives, D.C. (author), Daamen, W. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Understanding pedestrian exit choice behavior during emergency situations is important for improving evacuation efficiency. Virtual Reality is a promising technique that can be used to study pedestrian evacuation behavior. However, studies comparing evacuation behavior in real and virtual environments are still scarce. This paper explores...conference paper 2019

(author), Scarpas, Athanasios (author)The addition of epoxy modifier in bitumen is a relatively new modification technology (1-4) and the most critical epoxy polymerization-induced changes of the epoxy-bituminous materials are not fully understood. Different phenomena take place when epoxy modifiers are incorporated into bitumen and they are dependent on the material hardening...conference paper 2019

Apostolidis, P. (author), Daniel, Gerald C. (author), Liu, X. (author), Erkens, S. (author), Scarpas, Athanasios (author)The utilization of synthetic fibers has been reported in the past (1-8) showing enhancement of fatigue and thermal cracking resistance in asphaltic materials. However, the limited evidences about the benefits of these fibres in asphaltic materials at low material scales have been noticed. Also, the exact reinforcing mechanism of binding system...conference paper 2019

Cats, O. (author), Krishnakumari, P.K. (author), Tundulyasaree, Krissada (author)In large-scale urban agglomerations, heavy rail in the form of metro and commuter train serves as the backbone of the metropolitan public transport network. Transport systems are subject to recurrent disruptions that may result in severe consequences for network performance and society at large. The objective of this paper is to compare the...conference paper 2019

Alons-Hoen, Kristel (author), Somers, Guy (author), van Duin, Ron (author)In order to meet emission targets for 2050 in Europe transport needs to be executed more 2 efficiently. A promising way to make transport more efficient is synchromodal transport. When the 3 service provider has more flexibility to arrange transport, the utilization and use of intermodal transport, 4 such as rail, can be increased and emissions...conference paper 2019
