Mathoera, Winand (author)Amsterdam Airport Schiphol characterises itself as a major hub in Europe. Its network is not sustainable with only the Dutch catchment area. Instead, it relies on transfer passengers. When new tax regimes and policies are implemented to combat the environmental impacts of the airport, a change in passenger flows could affect Schiphol’s network...master thesis 2024

Godeke, Tijmen (author)This thesis aims to contribute to the policy debate on the complexity of passenger rail markets and to provide recommendations for the Dutch market. An extensive literature review has been conducted to identify the policy issues that must be discussed when dealing with passenger rail markets. These issues are structured in a theoretical...master thesis 2024

Auerbach, Daniel (author)The human-machine interfaces (HMIs) in passenger cars have become more complex over the years, with touch screens replacing physical buttons and more options becoming available. This can result in multiple layers of menus that have to be navigated to perform simple tasks and therefore increase distraction. In addition to this, there is no...master thesis 2024

de Haan, Naomi (author)The development of the global COVID-19 pandemic from 2020 onward has had significant impact on the world and specifically the maritime industry. Striking examples were COVID-19 outbreaks onboard the Diamond Princess cruise vessel and the U.S.S. Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier at the start of the pandemic. Contagious disease management...master thesis 2024

Udomboonyanupap, S. (author)This study investigates the impact of smartphone use on passengers' comfort during travel, focusing on train trips. The literature review reveals that smartphones have become the primary activity for train passengers, leading to discomfort and potential musculoskeletal issues, particularly in the neck, shoulders, arms, and back. The study aims...doctoral thesis 2024

Meijs, Lester (author)With Schiphol Airport's flight numbers growing, working assets are essential to ensure on-time processes. The Passenger Boarding Bridge (PBB) is a critical asset in the airport's turnaround process. By ensuring that the asset is working properly, the operational processes can run efficiently. Currently, improving the reliability of the PBB when...master thesis 2024

Katona, Misha (author)Through several contractions, stiff competition, and increasing passenger expectations, airports must evolve continually. One of the main avenues for this has been improving the efficiency of the security check- points, which are airports’ primary bottlenecks. Operational optimisation methods, such as resource and task scheduling are relatively...master thesis 2024

Lebègue, J. (author), Delahaye, Daniel (author), Hoekstra, J.M. (author)Many transportation networks have complex infrastructures (road, rail, airspace, etc.). The quality of service in air transportation depends on weather conditions. Technical failures of the aircraft, bad weather conditions, strike of the company’s staff cause delays and disrupt traffic. How can the robustness of such networks be improved?...conference paper 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

van Oort, N. (author), Leferink, T. (author), Lenferink, Sander (author)Introduction: The world is facing multiple challenges, e.g. in the realm of health, urbanization, climate change and social inclusion. Mobility can be part of the problem yet has the potential to be part of the solution. Serious games can support decision-making in a complex environment. This paper describes a serious game that aims to...journal article 2024

van Voorst tot Voorst, B.A.M. (author)This research aims to understand the influencing attributes of passengers and station layout elements on transfer walking times for metro transfers. Little research has been performed to include passenger-related attributes to model transfer walking time besides station layout elements. Through a literature review, the effect of gender, luggage...master thesis 2023

Webbers, Jesse (author)Since the commercialisation of air travel, demand for air transport is increasing. Optimal system capacity utilisation at airports has therefore become crucial. As available resources such as land, buildings and human are scarce and airline tickets need to be financially affordable, airports optimise their system while maximising capacity within...master thesis 2023

Zhang, Yu (author), Dong, Y. (author)The platform carrying capacity of urban rail transit stations is limited and overcrowding of the platform will lead to serious safety risks for passengers and trains. It is significant to collaborate on the optimization of passenger flow strategy and skip-stopping scheme to alleviate traffic pressure and ensure platform safety. This study...poster 2023

Tapia, Rodrigo Javier (author), Kourounioti, I. (author), Thoen, Sebastian (author), de Bok, M.A. (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author)Crowdshipping (CS) is an emerging form of freight transport that is expected to reduce the externalities of urban freight transport. The supply of CS services originates from people with an intention to travel, who can choose to engage in a parcel delivery service as incidental carrier. The popular expectation is that this consolidation of...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
