Klunder, G.A. (author), Taale, H. (author), Kester, L. (author), Hoogendoorn, S. (author)This paper describes a study which gives insight into the size of improvement that is possible with individual in-car routing advice based on the actual traffic situation derived from floating car data (FCD). It also gives an idea about the required penetration rate of floating car data needed to achieve a certain degree of improvement. The...article 2017

Janssen, S.A. (author), Centen, M.R. (author), Vos, H. (author), van Kamp, I. (author)Background Both the WHO and the EC recommend the use of Lnight as the primary indicator for sleep disturbance. Still, a key question for noise policy is whether the prediction of sleep quality could be improved by taking the number of events into account in addition to Lnight. Objectives The current paper investigates the association between...article 2014

Neele, F. (author), Wu, H. (author), Hendriks, C. (author), Brandsma, R. (author)The offshore gas fields in The Netherlands provide a storage capacity of about 1 Gt, which will become available over the next few decades. Existing production facilities may be re-used for injection. Uncertainties in storage capacity, injection rates and time of availability require an analysis of the feasibility of storing CO2 at the rates...conference paper 2011

Bosschaart, C. (author), Eisses, A.R. (author), van der Eerden, F.J.M. (author)Amsterdam Airport Schiphol has organized a competition to design a noise mitigating measure along the 'Polderbaan' runway. Its main goal is to reduce the low frequency (LF) ground noise from starting aircraft. The winning concept is a flexible parabolic shaped noise barrier positioned relatively close to the runway. There is a large distance...conference paper 2010
