Commercial electric aircraft operations are foreseen in the coming five to ten years. For an airport to be ready for this introduction, energy infrastructure requirements have already been subject to various research topics. Most research in this field only focused on cost minimization of the number of chargers given a fixed flight schedule....

Condition-based maintenance (CBM) scheduling of an aircraft fleet in a disruptive environment while considering health prognostics for a set of systems is a very complex combinatorial problem, which is becoming more challenging in light of the uncertainty included in health prognostics. This type of problem falls under the broad category of...

Self-organized industrial symbiosis (IS) starts with one actor's decision to invest in a waste recovery plant and the other actors' decision to buy the recovered flow. Technical and institutional conditions of the cluster influence actors' decisions. This paper explores the emergence of IS collaborations in industrial clusters under different...

Because of the climate crisis the world is facing, all sectors must move towards a more sustainable future. In the Netherlands, the industry sector emits large amounts of CO2 because of the heavy reliance on fossil-fuels and large electricity demand. The Paris agreement and the Green Deal forces the industry sector to rapidly transition towards...

With (e-)grocery retailers striving to increase their efficiency and subsequently reduce their costs, the opportunities that lie in optimising the order picking process of the supply chain is of key importance. The complex nature of assigning articles to an optimal storage location, having efficient routing of order pickers, and optimised...

Emission-free zones are being instituted in cities in the Netherlands to combat the emissions caused by transportation activity causing operators of large commercial vehicle fleets to electrify their vehicle fleet. E-truck fleets need sufficient charging infrastructure and power capacity at the distribution centres they operate from. However,...

Recently, ReLU neural networks have been modelled as constraints in mixed integer linear programming (MILP) enabling surrogate-based optimisation in various domains as well as efficient solution of machine learning verification problems. However, previous works have been limited to multilayer perceptrons (MLPs). The Graph Convolutional Neural...

Emerging economies produce 70-90% of the world’s steel, cement, and chemicals, which are essential for development. However, performance indicators such as carbon intensity and energy use per GDP reveal that industrial development trends in emerging economies are not sustainable. The ideal of industrial development that sustains and improves...

In this paper, a Simulated Annealing (SA) implementation for a Flexible Job Shop Problem (FJSP), with change-over time, is presented. <br/> This implementation is compared to a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) optimization, to compare performances. <br/> The SA algorithm starts with creating the first schedule with Global Selection. <br/>...

Trains consist of one or more railway vehicles called rolling stock, which need interior and exterior cleaning and small technical checks on a daily basis. These services are executed at service locations (SLs). Scheduling rolling stock servicing tasks during an operational day is important to guarantee the fulfilment of servicing deadlines....

In practice, the operation of high-speed trains is often affected by adverse weather conditions or equipment failures, which result in delays and even cancellations of train services. In this article, a novel two-layer hierarchical model predictive control (MPC) model is proposed for on-line high-speed railway delay management and train...

The design and preliminary estimations of biomass supply chains are essential in matching energy supply to energy demand. This is especially true of novel/future fuels and technologies in large industries. In this paper, a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model was formulated to represent biofuel supply chains across Europe for the...

Multiple robots are increasingly being considered in a variety of tasks requiring continuous surveillance of a dynamic area, examples of which are environmental monitoring, and search and rescue missions. Motivated by these applications, in this paper we consider the multi-robot persistent coverage control problem over a grid environment. The...

Railways are a well-recognized sustainable transportation mode that helps to satisfy the continuously growing mobility demand. However, the management of railway traffic in large-scale networks is a challenging task, especially when both a major disruption and various disturbances occur simultaneously. We propose an automatic rescheduling...

Sparsely populated areas tend to be poorly served by Fixed Line and Schedule (FLS) public transport systems as the operation of a regular bus line is not economically viable for such areas. Therefore, introducing a Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) to partially replace FLS can result in increasing mobility service accessibility and inclusion....

Urban mobility services face the challenge of planning their operations efficiently while complying with user preferences. In this paper, we introduce a new mathematical model called a choice-driven dial-a-ride problem (CD-DARP) which is a generalization of the dynamic DARP where passenger behavior is integrated in the operational planning...

The maritime industry has long relied on oils and heavy fuels as main energy carriers. The shipping sector still accounts for an important 2.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. On top of this, current industry fuels contain high levels of sulfur and release nitrogen oxides upon combustion, which both can be extremely harmful to local...

Hydrogen is widely considered an essential energy carrier that has the potential to accelerate the energy transition. The Netherlands does not have the resources to fulfil the expected hydrogen demand by domestically produced hydrogen. By realising hydrogen import terminals, the Port of Rotterdam can maintain its dominating...

With the current urge around the globe for switching to “green energy” and Renewable Energy Sources (RES) utilization, the electrification of the transportation sector has become a necessity. While the emerging Electric Vehicles (EVs) can provide several benefits to the power grid, such as voltage and frequency regulation and power quality...

Because of the expected growing implementation of large scale water electrolysis, an apparent opportunity arises to implement systems in which the by-product oxygen is harnessed by using it as a raw material in another process. This is also known as an oxygen synergy, an example of industrial symbiosis.<br/>A procedure to design and evaluate the...
