van der Ploeg, C. (author), Smit, R. (author), Teerhuis, A. (author), Silvas, E. (author)Developing safe automated vehicles that can be proactive, safe, and comfortable in mixed traffic requires improved planning methods that are risk-averse and that account for predictions of the motion of other road users. To consider these criteria, in this article, we propose a nonlinear model-predictive trajectory generator scheme, which...conference paper 2022

Smit, R. (author), van der Ploeg, C. (author), Teerhuis, A. (author), Silvas, E. (author)The urban environment is amongst the most difficult domains for autonomous vehicles. The vehicle must be able to plan a safe route on challenging road layouts, in the presence of various dynamic traffic participants such as vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians and in various environmental conditions. The challenge remains to have motion planners...conference paper 2022

Sanchez, M.M. (author), Elfring, J. (author), Silvas, E. (author), van de Molengraft, R. (author)To operate safely, an automated vehicle (AV) must anticipate how the environment around it will evolve. For that purpose, it is important to know which prediction models are most appropriate for every situation. Currently, assessment of prediction models is often performed over a set of trajectories without distinction of the type of movement...conference paper 2022

Hanselaar, C.A.J. (author), Silvas, E. (author), Terechko, A. (author), Heemels, W.P.M.H. (author)Autonomous vehicles (AVs) promise to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase comfort and throughput of transportation, while simultaneously significantly reducing traffic deaths. To allow autonomous vehicles to satisfy the high safety levels for unsupervised participation in realistic traffic, the faults and functional insufficiencies of AV...conference paper 2022

van der Tuin, M.S. (author), Spruijtenburg, S.D. (author), Zhou, H. (author)Demand Responsive Transit (DRT) can complement the future mobility system by providing additional point-to-point connections based on requests of the users. As a consequence, the liveability of a city might decrease when DRT vehicles introduce additional congestion due to deadheading (relocation of vehicles without transporting passengers). The...conference paper 2022

Dhondt, S. (author), Kraan, K.O. (author), Bal, M. (author)The impact of technological change on the content of jobs and accompanying skills is a central topic across disciplines. To date, ample research has directly linked the technological change to shifts in skills use; however, organisational change is rarely considered as an influencing factor. Based on a panel survey, this paper uses a Luhmannian...article 2022

(author)This paper proposes an automated approach to predict crack pattern similarities that correlate well with assessment by structural engineers. We use Siamese convolutional neural networks (SCNN) that take two crack pattern images as inputs and output scalar similarity measures. We focus on 2D masonry facades with and without openings. The image...article 2022

van der Weerdt, R. (author), de Boer, V. (author), Daniele, L. (author), Nouwt, B. (author), Siebes, R. (author)SAREF is an ontology created to enable interoperability between smart devices, but there is a lack in the literature of practical examples to implement SAREF in real applications. We validate the practical implementation of SAREF through two approaches. We first examine two methods to map the IoT data available in a smart home into linked data...article 2022

(author)Advanced driver assistance systems such as adaptive cruise control (ACC) and lane keeping system (LKS) potentially contribute to reducing crash rates and traffic congestion. On-road studies based on early ACC systems operational at medium–high speeds only have shown that the system reduces the proportion of short time gaps when activated....article 2022

Diels, C. (author), Ye, Y. (author), Bos, J.E. (author), Maeda, S. (author)Motion sickness in automated vehicles (AVs) represents a key Human Factors concern that will negatively impact the passenger experience and, ultimately, public acceptance. Minimizing or avoiding motion sickness altogether, therefore, becomes a strategic design goal. In this article we propose principal research questions that need to be...article 2022

Burger, F. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Brinkman, W.P. (author)E-mental health for depression is increasingly used in clinical practice, but patient adherence suffers as therapist involvement decreases. One reason may be the low responsiveness of existing programs: especially autonomous systems are lacking in their input interpretation and feedback-giving capabilities. Here, we explore (a) to what extent a...article 2022

We will address this demand by upgrading the UC Lick Observatory’s 2.4-meter Automated Planet Finder (APF) telescope with an adaptive optics (AO) system. The AO upgrade will be directly integrated into the...conference paper 2022
