Al-Qubatee, Wahib (author), Al Hasan, F. (author), Ritzema, Henk (author), Nasher, Ghunaim (author), Hellegers, Petra (author)Groundwater depletion is a problem in many parts the world. We developed an approach to investigate the drivers of groundwater depletion in data-scarce regions. The approach combines natural and human-induced drivers, with the latter focusing on the link between human activities and government policies. We tested the approach in Wadi Zabid,...journal article 2022

Oskina, M.I. (author), Farah, H. (author), Morsink, Peter (author), Happee, R. (author), van Arem, B. (author)The operation of automated vehicles (AVs) on shared roads requires attention concerning their interactions with vulnerable road users (VRUs), such as cyclists. This study investigates the safety of cyclists when they interact with an AV and compares it with their interaction with a conventional vehicle. Overall, 29 cyclists participated in a...journal article 2023

Cuentas-Hernandez, Sandra (author), Li, Xiaomeng (author), King, Mark J. (author), Oviedo-Trespalacios, O. (author)Introduction: Driver distraction has been recognized for a long time as a significant road safety issue. It has been consistently reported that drivers spend considerable time engaged in activities that are secondary to the driving task. The temporary diversion of attention from safety-critical driving tasks has often been associated with...journal article 2023

Truelove, Verity (author), Stefanidis, Kayla (author), Mills, Laura (author), Oviedo-Trespalacios, O. (author)Avoiding being caught and punished has consistently been demonstrated to be a key predictor of continued engagement in risky and illegal phone use while driving. This is a large concern, as the presence of applications such as Google Maps, Apple Maps, Waze, and social media pages/groups that share the location of enforcement activities related...journal article 2023

Guldenmund, F.W. (author)Stel, u rijdt op een drukke snelweg en het is behoorlijk druk. De signaalborden geven voortdurend aangepaste snelheden aan. U houdt het verkeer om u heen goed in de gaten. In uw achteruitkijkspiegel ziet u een auto slingeren en links en rechts tegen andere auto’s aanbotsen. Een spectaculair gezicht; uw aandacht is nu volledig op uw spiegel...journal article 2019

(author)Tesla's Full Self-Driving Beta (FSD) program introduces technology that extends the operational design domain of standard Autopilot from highways to urban roads. This research conducted 103 in-depth semi-structured interviews with users of Tesla's FSD Beta and standard Autopilot to evaluate the impact on user behavior and perception. It was...journal article 2023

(author)For the planned teleoperated maintenance of the experimental fusion plant ITER the time performance will be critical. Telemanipulated task execution is however characterised by long execution times compared to similar tasks performed hands-on. There is little quantitative research on task performance of telemanipulated maintenance available...journal article 2017

Scerri, Karyn (author), Attard, Maria (author), Duives, D.C. (author), Cats, O. (author)Understanding people’s travel behavior is key to creating spaces that discourage car use, especially for short, walkable distances. The scope of this study is to understand better people’s propensity to use a car rather than walk for short-distance trips by focusing on the concept of perceived exertion (PE). A comparison is performed of two...journal article 2023

Driessen, T. (author), Dodou, D. (author), Waard, Dick de (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author)Trucks are disproportionately involved in fatal traffic accidents and contribute significantly to CO<sub>2</sub> emissions. Gathering data from trucks presents a unique opportunity for estimating driver-specific costs associated with truck operation. Although research has been published on the predictive validity of driver data, such as in...journal article 2023

Melles, M. (author), Albayrak, A. (author), Goossens, R.H.M. (author)Human-centered design is about understanding human needs and how design can respond to these needs. With its systemic humane approach and creativity, human-centered design can play an essential role in dealing with today's care challenges. 'Design' refers to both the process of designing and the outcome of that process, which includes...journal article 2021

Lu, Z. (author), Happee, R. (author), Cabrall, C.D.D. (author), Kyriakidis, M. (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author)The topic of transitions in automated driving is becoming important now that cars are automated to ever greater extents. This paper proposes a theoretical framework to support and align human factors research on transitions in automated driving. Driving states are defined based on the allocation of primary driving tasks (i.e., lateral control,...journal article 2016

Quy Nguyen-Phuoc, Duy (author), An Ngoc Nguyen, Nguyen (author), Nguyen Hoang Minh, M. (author), Ngoc Thi Nguyen, Ly (author), Oviedo-Trespalacios, O. (author)On-demand food delivery involves transport services based on gig-economy models. Food delivery services rely on motorcycles in many jurisdictions, resulting in safety risks. Motorcycles are generally-two-wheeled and therefore inherently unstable. They also lack rider restraint or roll cage to minimise the consequences of a collision. Given the...journal article 2022

Burggraaf, J.M. (author), Groeneweg, J. (author), Sillem, S. (author), van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)When a train passes a red aspect, this is called a Signal Passed at Danger event or SPAD. Sometimes it is easy to identify the SPAD cause but in other cases it is unclear why the incident occurred, especially if the system operated as usual and the train driver was trained and experienced just like his or her colleagues. In previous research,...journal article 2022

Cleij, D. (author), Venrooij, J. (author), Pretto, Paolo (author), Pool, D.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author), Bulthoff, Heinrich H. (author)Motion cueing algorithms are used in motion simulation to map the inertial vehicle motion onto the limited simulator motion space. This mapping causes mismatches between the unrestricted visual motion and the constrained inertial motion, which results in perceived motion incongruence (PMI). It is still largely unknown what exactly causes...journal article 2018

de Winter, J.C.F. (author), Happee, R. (author), Martens, M.H. (author), Stanton, N.A. (author)Adaptive cruise control (ACC), a driver assistance system that controls longitudinal motion, has been introduced in consumer cars in 1995. A next milestone is highly automated driving (HAD), a system that automates both longitudinal and lateral motion. We investigated the effects of ACC and HAD on drivers’ workload and situation awareness...journal article 2014
