Automated vehicles represent an exciting advancement in transportation, offering a range of benefits that have the potential to revolutionize how we travel. They can improve safety, efficiency, accessibility, and sustainability, holding promise for transforming our cities and communities. However, generating safe, comfortable, and efficient...

Every time one counts the number of occurrences of a pair of values for two categorical variables, one obtains a contingency table. These tables are one of the simplest representations of data in order to statistically test for the presence of some association between the two variables under consideration. Although naturally occurring in so many...

With the increasing penetration of converter-interfaced generators, the frequency containment reserve (FCR) from conventional generators keeps going down, leading to a potential risk of frequency instability under contingencies. Consequently, Converter-interfaced generators are required to provide FCR and participate in the corrective...

Chunking theory and previous eye-tracking studies suggest that expert chess players use peripheral vision to judge chess positions and determine the best moves to play. However, the role of peripheral vision in chess has largely been inferred rather than tested through controlled experimentation. In this study, we used a gaze-contingent paradigm...

This paper presents a multi-stage expansion model for the co-planning of transmission lines, battery energy storage (ES), and wind power plants (WPP). High penetration of renewable energy sources (RES) is integrated into the proposed model concerning renewable portfolio standard (RPS) policy goals. The possibility of bundling existing...

With the introduction of automated driving systems come benefits such as the improvement of traffic safety. However, with an increasing level of automation in vehicles also comes an increase in interaction with in-vehicle technology by drivers while they are meant to supervise the automated driving systems. Due to more interaction with in...

Human operators who are tasked with monitoring automation systems may experience a high visual demand to process the information streams from these systems. The visual sampling behavior of human operators can be described using mathematical models. These models can help designers improve environments where multiple signals are present for human...

With the increase in development of self-driving cars, research has been conducted to retain humanized interaction between cars and other road users, such as pedestrians. One way to retain this type of interaction is through the use of external Human-Machine Interfaces (eHMIs). This project aims to contribute to this field of research by...

There has been a growing interest in improving the operating efficiency of warehouses, which is one of the critical facilities used in the logistics sector. This thesis examines the impact of order characteristics on the performance of different configurations of the outbound logistics of a 3PL warehouse. A contingency approach combined with a...

To achieve the goals on greenhouse gas emissions, the energy supply and demand is in transition. Distribution power grids therefore are increasingly reaching their capacity limits due to electrification and the vast increase of distributed energy resource (DER) connection requests with large peak power output. Increasing physical grid capacity...

van Werkhoven, Suzan (author)
Despite the severity and high frequency of cost overruns in construction projects, it is considered a rule rather than an exception. This phenomenon occurs when the initially estimated budget does not suffice the actual costs needed to realise the project. Uncertainty and bias challenge the ability to make cost estimates. Incorrect estimates of...

Inverter-based generation (IBG) is critical in achieving a dependable and resilient electrical system while meeting the net-zero emission goal. The enormous integration of IBG tends to produce various issues, including reduced rotational inertia and reduced short circuit levels. Several scientific publications agree that the voltage source...

Background: Automated vehicles are promoted as a safety improvement, but they may also bring a new problem of ‘out of the loop’ errors. Automation support in the form of gaze-contingent feedback might be the solution for these errors. Using the SEEV model, operator’s attention allocation can be predicted and using live gaze data, the driver’s...

Agitation takes control when distance collapses. Contrast of different states of existence and change of the environment are easier to detect than those constant ones. Drawn from climatic, geopolitical and socio-economic scenarios of the North Sea, intermodal transport of goods, particularly the last-mile which crosses land-sea boundaries, will...

Shekhar, A. (author)
Energy transition will inevitably lead to greater electrification. For example, it is anticipated that electrical energy demand will rise by at least 2-3 times by 2050 with increasing share of electric vehicles and heat pumps. This will translate to significant increase in power demand on the existing medium voltage distribution grid, resulting...

Current literature shows that poor cost performance in projects has become routine. Research on cost performance has mostly focused on one of the involved parties, either the client or the contractor. Not many research efforts discuss the cost contingency performance of projects. This research discusses the cost performance and cost...

The current literature discusses the methods to estimate the costs and cost contingency. The literature also distinguishes "known unknowns" and "unknown unknowns" contingencies. Little is written, however, about the evolvement of total project cost estimates during the preconstruction phase of construction projects. Moreover, not many studies...

There are several prevailing issues regarding major altered states of extreme weather events. For instance, storm surges, sea-level rise, and droughts have all resulted in many regions left with critical systems and interdependencies exposed. The impact and risk of modern disasters have caused substantial adverse socio-economic impacts by...

Risk management is undoubtedly a precious component of the overall project management field. It assists in identifying, assessing and mitigating the uncertainties that are present in a project. These uncertainties affect important measures of a project, of which cost and schedule are the most prominent, and consequently put project success under...

IT Governance is often viewed as an important factor for creating business value for firms. However, there is limited work investigating the relationship between architectural governance and the contributions of enterprise architecture (EA) to firm performance. Based on a study of more than 15 cases the analyzes shows that architectural...
