Due to the increasing penetration of renewablebased distributed energy resources (DERs), the risks of congestion problems have been increasing in the Dutch distribution system. Traditionally, grid reinforcements were applied to prevent congestion, but due to shortages of technicians and due to long procedures, the use of flexibility from...

Self-learning energy management is a promising concept, which optimizes real-world system performance by automated, on-line adaptation of control settings. In this work, the potential of self-learning capabilities related to optimization is studied for energy management in Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV). These vehicles are of great...

Energy Flexibility is the ability of smart devices to deviate from their normal energy producing or consuming behaviour, while still fulfilling their intended purpose, with the goal of contributing to the operation of the energy system. Energy Flexibility has the potential to counteract the mismatch between production and consumption of energy...

We investigate the hypothesis that long-term memory in populations of agents can lead to counterproductive emergent properties at the system level. Our investigation is framed in the context of a discrete, one-dimensional road-traffic congestion model: we investigate the influence of simple cognition in a population of rational commuter agents...

Vehicle platooning has gained attention for its potential to achieve an increased road capacity and safety, and a higher fuel efficiency. Member vehicles of a platoon wirelessly communicate complying with industrial standards such as IEEE 802.11p. By exchanging information with other members via wireless communication, a platoon member computes...

Weather conditions are widely acknowledged to contribute to the occurrence of congestion on motorway traffic by influencing both traffic supply and traffic demand. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper that explicitly integrates supply and demand effects in predicting the influence of adverse weather conditions on the probability...

In the invited talk 'Car2x with SDN, NFV and supercomputers' we report about how our past work with SDN [1, 2] allows the design of a smart mobility fieldlab in the huge parking lot the Amsterdam Arena. We explain how we can engineer and test software that handle the complex conditions of the Car2X case. The talk starts by describing the...

We describe an analytical queuing and network decomposition model developed to study the complex phenomenon of the propagation of delays within a large network of major airports. The Approximate Network Delays (AND) model computes the delays due to local congestion at individual airports and captures the " ripple effect" that leads to the...

The Dutch national transport CO2 emissions are determined by summing individual cases: a particular vehicle, on a particular road and traffic situation. In this paper the different aspects and the relations among them, as used in emission predictions, are outlined. In particular the central role that the CO2 type-approval value (from the NEDC...

Road throughput can be increased by driving at small inter-vehicle time gaps. The amplification of velocity disturbances in upstream direction, however, poses limitations to the minimum feasible time gap. This effect is covered by the notion of string stability. String-stable behavior is thus considered an essential requirement for the design of...

Structural problems in modern societies, such as climate change and congestion problems, require 'transitions' towards a more susTWNnable fulfilment of social needs. Recent research shows that experimenting in niches is crucial for learning about social challenges and stimulating transitions. Through a series of 'transition experiments' in...

New driver support systems are developed and introduced to the market at increasing speed. In conditions of traffic congestion drivers may be supported by a" Congestion Assistant", a system that combines the features of a Congestion Warning System (acoustic warning and gas pedal counterforce) and a Stop & Go system (automatic gas and brake pedal...

TNO has formulated the ambition of founding a basis for the development of flexible multi-data source and multi-application (ad hoc) sensor networks. These networks are envisioned on a scale that is beyond networks for specific and separate sensor networks. These separate networks need in the future to be combined intelligently in order to...

The IMAGINE railway traffic noise source model is described, which is a further elaboration and completion of the Harmonoise model. Within the EU project Harmonoise, a model was proposed including most of the main railway noise sources. In the IMAGINE project, complete formulation was put forward taking all relevant physical sources but also...

This paper describes a driving simulator experiment to test the functioning and acceptance of a standardized overtaking assistant design. On a simulated two-lane road, 24 participants drove 15 min with and without a prototype overtaking assistant The overtaking assistant calculated the available time to perform an overtaking maneuver, taking the...

A c-congestion period of an m/m/ ∞-queue is a period during which the number of customers in the system is continuously above level c. Interesting quantities related to a c-congestion period are, besides its duration Dc, the total area Ac above c, and the number of arrived customers Nc. In the literature Laplace transforms for these quantities...

This paper presented the results of a simulation study on the effects of a special lane for intelligent vehicles on traffic flow on motorways. The intelligent vehicles are equipped with Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC). ICC is an in-car system that automatically maintains a specified speed, taking into account a minimal distance with respect to...
