Rusman, Esmee (author)Worldwide, material consumption has expanded rapidly. The Netherlands has become wealthier, citizens can afford more products and therefore the amount of municipal solid waste (MSW) increased enormously. The distribution of MSW is associated with environmental problems and health risks. MSW consists of everyday items disposed by households, such...master thesis 2020

Kosicki, Matthijs (author)The rise of e-commerce makes shopping easier than ever. It also puts pressure on logistic service providers, their employees, traffic and the environment. Parcel deliveries to service points or parcel lockers could release some of this pressure. However, service points are only scarcely used by Dutch consumers, while parcel lockers still lack a...master thesis 2020

de Jong, Gerard (author), Kouwenhoven, M.L.A. (author), Daly, Andrew (author), Thoen, S. (author), de Gier, Matthijs (author), Hofman, Frank (author)Time-of-day (TOD) choice can be considered as a fifth stage in the modelling of transport behaviour, additional to the conventional four stages. Twenty years ago in The Netherlands, a stated preference (SP) study was designed for investigating the choice of time-of-day (departure time) and transport mode. A nested logit time period and mode...journal article 2020

Alonso González, M.J. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Cats, O. (author), Hoogendoorn-Lanser, S. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)The uptake of on-demand services is increasing rapidly all over the world. However, the market share of their pooled version (ridesharing, e.g., UberPOOL or LyftLine) is still low, despite its potential in addressing the mobility challenges that dense urban cities are facing. In this research, we analyse user preferences towards pooled on-demand...journal article 2020

Alonso González, M.J. (author), Cats, O. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Hoogendoorn-Lanser, S. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Simulation studies suggest that pooled on-demand services (also referred to as Demand Responsive Transport, ridesharing, shared ride-hailing or shared ridesourcing services) have the potential to bring large benefits to urban areas while inducing limited time losses for their users. However, in reality, the large majority of users request...journal article 2020

Tzouras, Panagiotis G. (author), Farah, H. (author), Papadimitriou, E. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Hagenzieker, Marjan (author)The tram is a sustainable mode of transport. However, tram tracks are often shared with vulnerable road users (VRUs) such as pedestrians and cyclists. In this mixed environment, accidents between trams and VRUs are very rare but severe at the same time. Previous studies have acknowledged that tram driving is a complex and very demanding task....journal article 2020

Danaf, Mazen (author), Guevara, Angelo (author), Atasoy, B. (author), Ben-Akiva, Moshe (author)Endogeneity arises in discrete choice models due to several factors and results in inconsistent estimates of the model parameters. In adaptive choice contexts such as choice-based recommender systems and adaptive stated preferences (ASP) surveys, endogeneity is expected because the attributes presented to an individual in a specific menu (or...journal article 2020

Arendsen, Koen (author)Over the past decade, the development of ICT and online platforms has provided the infrastructure for new ways of sharing on a scale never seen before which are causing a shift from ownership to access-based- consumption. This trend offers promising prospects for the case of mobility but the true magnitude of impact that the...master thesis 2019

(author), de Azevedo, Carlos Lima (author), Ding-Mastera, Jing (author), Abou-Zeid, Maya (author), Cox, Nathaniel (author), Zhao, Fang (author), Ben-Akiva, Moshe (author)Stated preferences surveys are most commonly used to provide behavioral insights on hypothetical travel scenarios such as new transportation services or attribute ranges beyond those observed in existing conditions. When designing SP surveys, considerable care is needed to balance the statistical objectives with the realism of the experiment....journal article 2019

Xie, Yifei (author), Danaf, Mazen (author), Azevedo, Carlos Lima (author), Akkinepally, Arun Prakash (author), Atasoy, B. (author), Jeong, Kyungsoo (author), Seshadri, Ravi (author), Ben-Akiva, Moshe E. (author)This paper presents a systematic way of understanding and modeling traveler behavior in response to on-demand mobility services. We explicitly consider the sequential and yet inter-connected decision-making stages specific to on-demand service usage. The framework includes a hybrid choice model for service subscription, and three logit mixture...journal article 2019

Alonso González, M.J. (author), Cats, O. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Hoogendoorn-Lanser, S. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)The impact of on-demand urban transport services on traffic reduction will depend on the willingness to share (WTS) of individuals. However, the extent to which individuals are willing to share remains largely unknown. By means of a stated preference experiment, this study analyses the WTS of respondents by comparing their preferences towards...conference paper 2019

van den Hurk, D.E.M. (author)Automated vehicles (AVs) have been receiving much attention all over the world, where the first fully AVs are already operating on the road network. AVs could not only have a tremendous impact on the urban environment but also on human travel behaviour. The focus of this study is to gain insight into the effects of private highly AVs on drivers’...master thesis 2017

Liao, F. (author), Molin, E.J.E. (author), van Wee, G.P. (author)Widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) may contribute to the alleviation of problems such as environmental pollution, global warming and oil dependency. However, the current market penetration of EV is relatively low in spite of many governments implementing strong promotion policies. This paper presents a comprehensive review of...journal article 2017

Galama, I.M. (author)This master thesis analysed the route choice behaviour at the mass event SAIL Amsterdam 2015. Both stated preference [SP] (online survey) and revealed preference [RP] (GPS-trackers) data was collected, to gain more insight into the behaviour of pedestrians. Attributes of influence on the route choices are researched on the one hand. On the other...master thesis 2016

Yap, M.D. (author), Correia, Gonçalo (author), van Arem, B. (author)In the recent years many developments took place regarding automated vehicles (AVs) technology. It is however unknown to which extent the share of the existing transport modes will change as result of AVs introduction as another public transport option. This study is the first where detailed traveller preferences for AVs are explored and...journal article 2016

Bourguignon, V.A. (author)In 2011, Schiphol introduced the self-service passport control (SSPC), which now functions as an alternative for the traditional passport control (TPC) at four different locations within the airport. Travellers thus have to make an obligatory choice between the two types of services. At the Schengen/non-Schengen border between Lounge 1 and...master thesis 2015

Swierstra, A.B. (author)Public transport is known as a sustainable transportation mode. In order to increase demand and cost effectiveness much attention is paid to increase the service quality. One of these service quality aspects is the travel time reliability of a public transport service. However, the monetization of travel time reliability is still a topic of...master thesis 2015

Chen, C. (author)Task complexity and time pressure may have impacts on travellers’ choices in the context of highly synchronised mobility networks. However, it is unclear at the moment how these two aspects should be properly modelled simultaneously and what these impacts of the two aspects really are on travellers’ choices. Consequently, this research aims to...doctoral thesis 2014

Van Cranenburgh, S. (author)Peak oil, strong international climate policy, and many other unconventional changes which loom on the horizon may strongly change current vacation travel patterns. What changes in vacation travel behaviour can we expect and how can policy-makers prepare for them? This thesis takes the first steps to answer these questions. It develops and...doctoral thesis 2013
