de Wildt, T.E. (author), van de Poel, I.R. (author)Value and moral change have increasingly become topics of interest in the philosophical literature. Several theoretical accounts have been proposed. These are usually based on certain theoretical and conceptual assumptions. Their strengths and weaknesses are often difficult to determine and compare because they are based on limited empirical...journal article 2024

Aleebrahimdehkordi, M. (author), Lechner, J.M. (author), Ghorbani, Amineh (author), Nikolic, I. (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), Herder, P.M. (author)Agent-based modelling and simulation (ABMS), whether simple toy models or complex data-driven ones, is regularly applied in various domains to study the system-level patterns arising from individual behaviour and interactions. However, ABMS still faces diverse challenges such as modelling more representative agents or improving computational...journal article 2023

Kreulen, Kurt (author), de Bruin, B. (author), Ghorbani, Amineh (author), Mellema, René (author), Kammler, Christian (author), Vanhee, Loïs (author), Dignum, Frank (author), Dignum, Virginia (author)Since its first appearance in Wuhan (China), countries have been employing, to varying degrees of success, a series of non-pharmaceutical interventions aimed at limiting the spread of SARS-CoV-2 within their populations. In this article, we build on scientific work that demonstrates that culture is part of the explanation for the observed...journal article 2022

Köstler, Klemens (author)In this paper, we propose and analyze a q-learning-based approach for allocation of operators to security teams in order to improve operational efficiency of an airport security checkpoint. The research is composed of two parts. First, we develop an agent-based model capable of simulating an airport security checkpoint. Second, we introduce...master thesis 2021

Syed Mujtaba Fardeen, Syed Mujtaba Fardeen (author)The climate change around the globe driven by Greenhouse Gas emissions (GHG) is fueling the growth of Sustainable Energy Systems (SES) at a faster pace. However, the lack of acceptance of these systems by society has stifled its successful deployment. Societal values play a key role in evaluating the social acceptance and the broader...master thesis 2021

Bradley, Jessie (author)Acceleration of the energy transition requires increased mining of materials. An important material for the energy transition is nickel, used in the stainless steel required for all energy infrastructure and an important component for both stationary batteries and batteries used in electric vehicles. Previous research has been done on the global...master thesis 2021

Termos, Ali (author), Picascia, Stefano (author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author)Rapid international migration of significant populations generates profound implications for countries in West Asia, Europe, and other regions. The motivation of this work is to develop an agent-based model (ABM) to capture the existence of such migrant and refugee flows, and to explore the effects of these flows on urban dynamics. Advances in...journal article 2021

Lange, K.P.H. (author), Korevaar, G. (author), Nikolic, I. (author), Herder, P.M. (author)Industrial Symbiosis Networks (ISNs) consist of firms that exchange residual materials and energy locally, in order to gain economic, environmental and/or social advantages. In practice, ISNs regularly fail when partners leave and the recovery of residual streams ends. Regarding the current societal need for a shift towards sustainability, it is...journal article 2021

Dhoore, Karel (author)Wildlife conservation efforts are constrained by a limited amount of resources available for surveillance activities. UAVs are used increasingly to assist rangers in patrol tasks. Effectively patrolling wildlife parks requires detailed knowledge of the environment and its threats, which is not always available. Previous work in Green Security...master thesis 2020

Fines, Kostas (author)Airport surface movement operations are complex systems that experience many types of adverse events which require resilient, safe and efficient responses. One regularly occurring adverse event is that of runway reconfigurations. Agent based distributed planning and coordination has shown promising results in controlling and maintaining...master thesis 2019

Boijmans, Anne (author)This research has been performed to help the Dutch government with the decisions and choices it has to make in order to meet the requirements of the Paris Agreement and the Climate Agreement. Decentralized energy systems can be a solution for meeting these requirements, however trade-offs have to be made between different system criteria, which...master thesis 2019

Valečkaitė, Kotryna (author)In this thesis we present a computational framework, which allows simulating residential location choice. The specific application of the model focuses on representing populations under disaster risk. The aim of the tool is to enable public planning agencies to explore the synthesized households’ location choice under risk and different spatial,...master thesis 2018

de Jong, Vera (author)Hydrogen technology offers a promising opportunity to mitigate problems that arise due to the energy transition. It can enable storage and balancing for surplus in electricity production from intermittent resources as solar energy and wind power. Electrolysis converts green electricity into hydrogen. Hydrogen is suggested to be introduced into...master thesis 2018

de Ronde, Xander (author)The increased decentralisation and heterogeneity of critical infrastructure systems pose a threat to the safe and secure operation of critical infrastructures by complicating cybersecurity procedures. The increased frequency and impact of cyberthreats have led to the desire to develop coherent security policies. In order to explore the effects...master thesis 2018

Meekma, Lieuwe Thys (author)The idea for Geometry matching by multi-agent systems as a subject originates at a previous course, where the J. Sturkenboom & author came up with an idea to use the material of old boat hulls as facade elements to provide a solution to an environmental problem. The approach then was rather practical, whereas the approach within this thesis...master thesis 2018

Keemink, Wessel (author)This thesis focuses on the combination of agent based modelling and Bayesian network. These techniques are used to see if this is a viable way of modelling green markets, like the heat pump market. These markets can change quickly. The combination of the techniques gives the investors in the model the ability to learn from new information during...master thesis 2018

de Groen, Frederique (author)This thesis researches the interaction between the revitalisation of an industry through industrial symbiosis and its local workforce, via a case study on the sugar industry in Norte Fluminense, Brazil. Agent-based modelling is used to gain insights in the case study with regards to the workers’ perception of their own status, power, their...master thesis 2018
