Immersive virtual reality (IVR) with head-mounted displays (HMDs) is expanding in various fields like training, but its effects on cognitive load from visual, auditory, and mental stimuli in virtual environments remain uncertain. This is particularly relevant in neurorehabilitation, where patients may suffer from training in overstimulating...

Lower-limb exoskeletons often use trajectory-tracking control to define the device's motion and assistance level. One challenge lies in ensuring a smooth and comfortable interaction between the user and the robotic device by defining a reference trajectory. While recent research has focused on generating individualized gait patterns based on...

In recent years, the medical world has seen rapid digitalisation. Digitalisation of healthcare and the opportunities of remote monitoring can help to keep the healthcare system affordable and accessible. A promising application of remote monitoring is the use of consumer-grade wearables for clinical care. However, vulnerabilities leave consumer...

Understanding human behavior in overtaking scenarios is crucial for enhancing road safety in mixed traffic with automated vehicles (AVs). Modeling plays a pivotal role in advancing our comprehension of human overtaking behavior in dynamically evolving scenarios. Currently, our understanding of overtaking behavior primarily revolves around...

Collaboration in teams composed of both humans and automations has an interdependent nature, which demands calibrated trust among all the teammembers. For building suitable autonomous teammates, we need to study how trust and trustworthiness function in such teams. In particular, automations occasionally fail to do their job, which leads to a...

Modern societies are heavily relied on efficient transportation systems for mobilizing people and goods. These systems are mainly constituted by road traffic networks. Currently, traffic demand is immense and perpetually increasing with unprecedented rates that traffic congestion has become an imminent subsequent. Over time, all this human...

The aim of this thesis was to investigate the evolution of Ilissos and Kifissos river basins in Athens, Greece and the ways this evolution was influenced by specific human factors. The dynamics of the human-water interactions have been studied in the frame of sociohydrology and the central key was to study the impact society had on the...

Technological innovations in the Dutch railway sector, such as ERTMS and the 3kV power supply system make it possible to increase the efficiency, effectivity and speed of the railway system in the upcoming decades. The implementation of systems such as ERTMS and 3kV is a lengthy process. The new systems will therefore operate alongside the old...

Computers are preferred above humans when dealing with information processing because of the great memory and fast computing times. The use of algorithms within complex planning processes is an interesting research field. These algorithms should help human planners with the planning process and therefore are called Planning Assistance Tools (PAT...

Pedestrians today are very vulnerable on urban roads. Clear communication between drivers and pedestrians is one way to reduce their plight. Non-verbal communication in particular plays an important role in road safety, and eye contact is a kind of non-verbal communication that has the potential to minimize on-road collisions. However, with the...

Merging is one of the most demanding tasks for a truck driver due to the size, weight and limited visual clearance of a truck. Automating the merging procedure can be the solution for a considerable number of accidents by removing the human factor. People have accepted the risk they are in when driving or being driven but acceptance of automated...

Lateral acceleration is a key aspect of the vehicle response perceived by the driver. Assistance systems such as Active Rear Steering (ARS) or Torque Vectoring (TV) are developed to modify the lateral acceleration response such that the vehicle has an improved stability and an extended linear handling region. With this extended linear handling...

Every year over 30.000 patients in the Netherlands alone are operated to repair a damaged meniscus. Damage to the meniscus occurs due to a combination of excessive torque and compression forces on the knee joint. The current arthroscopic cutters that are used during meniscectomies can only reach limited areas of the meniscus. During the...

Speeding in motorway work zones lowers the perceived safety of road workers and increases the accident risks of traffic participants. In a work zone, traffic participants share the road with road workers. Road workers are often vulnerable and feel threatened by vehicles passing with high speed. Traffic participants are also at risk since driving...

Reducing conflicts between drivers and assistance systems has become an important issue in recent times, resulting in a need for a better understanding of how humans drive. Current models of driver speed choice on curved roads do not model accelerator and brake pedal deflections, and consequently do not account for the fact that deceleration...

In telemanipulation commonly master and slave have dissimilar workspaces. Workspace extension methods can overcome this mismatch between master and slave. Literature proposes several workspace extension methods for translations such as scaling and indexing. However, for rotations it is unclear how workspace extension methods should be designed....
