Pelka, S. (author)The potential of households to adapt their energy use to the conditions of the energy system remains largely untapped due to shortcomings in consumer governance (i.e., the organization of household energy use). A lack of price signals and services leads to uncoordinated household energy use. Various proposals exist for updating consumer...doctoral thesis 2024

Alkharraa, H.S.H. (author)Oil exploitation of tight reservoirs has gained significant importance lately. Some researchers have defined tight reservoirs as those characterized with permeability lower than 0.1 mD. However, permeability is an absolute value, and tight reservoirs have complex pore systems that require a detailed geological and petrophysical rock...doctoral thesis 2024

Liezenga, A. M. (author), Verma, T. (author), Mayaud, J. R. (author), Aydin, N.Y. (author), van Wee, G.P. (author)As cities grow, the benefits of living in them are increasingly unequally distributed. USA cities, in particular, have experienced rapid suburbanization of poverty and decreased levels of access to jobs for transit-dependent and vulnerable communities. The public transit challenges in suburbs call for innovative forms of transit to turn the...journal article 2024

Xia, Dongyang (author), Ma, Jihui (author), Sharif Azadeh, S. (author)Integrating emerging shared mobility with traditional fixed-line public transport is a promising solution to the mismatch between supply and demand in urban transportation systems. The advent of modular vehicles (MVs) provides opportunities for more flexible and seamless intermodal transit. The MVs, which have been implemented, are comprised...journal article 2024

Pelka, S. (author), Kesselring, Anne (author), Preuß, Sabine (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), De Vries, Laurens (author)Aligning prosumers' electricity consumption to the availability of self-generated electricity decreases CO<sub>2</sub> emissions and costs. Nudges are proposed as one behavioral intervention to orchestrate such changes. At the same time, fragmented findings in the literature make it challenging to identify suitable behavioral interventions...journal article 2024

Brederode, L.J.N. (author)Strategic traffic assignment (TA) models assess long-term effects of policies on route choices of travelers. To meet stability requirements, current strategic TA models lack modelling of queues. This thesis develops two TA models that include queue modelling whilst satisfying stability requirements along with a method to fuse observed link flows...doctoral thesis 2023

On the use of common random numbers in activity-based travel demand modeling for scenario comparisonZhou, H. (author), Dorsman, J. L. (author), Mandjes, M. (author), Snelder, M. (author)Activity-based travel demand models provide a high level of detail when modeling complex travel behavior. Since stochastic simulation is used, however, this high level may induce large random fluctuations in the output, necessitating many model reruns to produce reliable output. This may become prohibitive in terms of computation time when...journal article 2023

Li, Tianqi (author), Goverde, R.M.P. (author)The periodic train timetable is one of the most widely used train timetables in passenger railway systems worldwide. However, how to expand well-coordinated daily train services from a single-period timetable pattern is rarely studied. This paper develops a multi-objective mixed integer programming model to solve the periodic train timetable...abstract 2023

van der Knaap, R.J.H. (author), de Bruyn, Menno (author), van Oort, N. (author), Huisman, Dennis (author), Goverde, R.M.P. (author)Train passenger demand fluctuates throughout the day and week and these fluctuations are expected to increase due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to let train services, such as the line plan and timetable, match this fluctuating demand, insights are needed into how the demand is changing and for which periods the demand is relatively stable....abstract 2023

Cañizares Gaztelu, J.C. (author), Copeland, S.M. (author), Doorn, N. (author)This article contributes to recent work on justice in resilience-based projects for climate adaptation. At present, the model commonly used for guiding normative reflection in this domain is the tripartite model of justice, whereby justice is seen as comprising distributive, procedural and recognitional aspects. After discussing some conceptual...journal article 2023

Brederode, L.J.N. (author), Pel, A.J. (author), Wismans, Luc (author), Rijksen, Bernike (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)This paper presents an efficient solution method for the matrix estimation problem using a static capacity constrained traffic assignment (SCCTA) model with residual queues. The solution method allows for inclusion of route queuing delays and congestion patterns besides the traditional link flows and prior demand matrix whilst the...journal article 2023

Zhou, H. (author), Dorsman, J.L. (author), Mandjes, M. (author), Snelder, M. (author)Nowadays, many cities are intending to reduce the use of private vehicles. Governments are incorporating new mobility services and are adapting their parking policies to promote a more sustainable mobility, as both strategies are believed to have the potential to reduce private vehicle use. To understand the effects of these strategies, one...journal article 2023
