Malone, K.M. (author), van Dam, E. (author), Wilschut, E. (author)Intelligent Transport Systems are being developed to improve the safety of cyclists. A trial of one such system, an Intersection Safety system, was held in Helmond, the Netherlands, in March 2015. The trial tested the technical performance of the set-up, as well as the cyclists’ subjective and objective behavior during the tests. Car passengers...conference paper 2017

(author)Veel bedrijven in met name de petrochemische industrie zijn er de afgelopen jaren in geslaagd het aantal ongevallen sterk terug te dringen. Een van de middelen die is gebruikt om deze verbetering te bewerkstelligen, is de zogenaamde Kwantitatieve Risico Analyse (QRA). Een QRA is een instrument om de risico's voor een bepaalde activiteit te...article 2017

Een belangrijk aspect van een gezonde ontwikkeling is dat kinderen dagelijks voldoende bewegen. Te veel kinderen voldoen helaas niet aan de beweegnorm van dagelijks een uur lichamelijke activiteit.

de Boer, C. (author), Snelder, M. (author), van Nes, R. (author), van Arem, B. (author)Conventional travel time reliability assessment has evolved from road segments to the route level. However, a connection between origin and destination usually consists of multiple routes, thereby providing the option to choose. Having alternatives can compensate for the deterioration of a single route; therefore, this study assesses the...article 2017

Calvert, S.C. (author), Snelder, M. (author)Major and minor disturbances can have a considerable impact on the performance of road networks. In this respect, resilience is con-sidered as the ability of a road section to resist and to recover from disturbances in traffic flow. In this contribution, an indicator is pre-sented, the Link Performance Index for Resilience (LPIR), which eval...article 2017
