  • Stationslocaties Als Productiemilieu, Crisisproof of Juist Probleemlocaties?
    Stationslocaties als productiemilieu, crisisproof of juist probleemlocaties? Een onderzoek naar de stationslocaties als productiemilieu aan de hand van het op stationslocaties gerichte overheidsbeleid. Amsterdam Zuidas (foto Parool.nl) Willem-Christiaan Wolthuis 29 augustus 2013 Colofon Titel: Stationslocaties als productiemilieu, crisisproof of juist probleemlocaties? Een onderzoek naar de stationslocaties als productiemilieu aan de hand van het op stationslocaties gerichte overheidsbeleid. Auteur: Willem-Christiaan Wolthuis Studentnummer: S2064936 E-mail: [email protected] [email protected] Opleiding: Master Vastgoedkunde, Faculteit der Ruimtelijke Wetenschappen, Rijksuniversiteit Groningen Begeleider RUG: Drs. Dennis Jannette Walen Tweede beoordelaar: Prof. Dr. Ed. F. Nozeman Almelo, 29 augustus 2013 II Voorwoord Na de afronding van mijn HBO opleiding Vastgoed & Makelaardij aan de Saxion Hogeschool Enschede had ik besloten mijn kennis te verdiepen en verbreden in het vastgoed. Ook de toevoeging van de wetenschappelijke wijze van onderzoek heeft mij doen besluiten de master Vastgoedkunde aan de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen te volgen. Na een schakeljaar ben ik in september 2011 begonnen met de master met daarbij enkele interessante vakken die mij in mijn verdere loopbaan verder zullen helpen. Het onderwerp van deze scriptie was niet vanaf het begin duidelijk. Aan het begin van mijn scriptie in september 2012 was mijn eerste voorstel om het multifunctioneel grondgebruik bij stationslocaties te onderzoeken. Na enkele goede overleggen met mijn begeleider drs. Jannette Walen zijn we gezamenlijk tot dit onderwerp gekomen. Tijdens de scriptie merkte ik dat ik, mede door de bezoeken die ik afgelegd heb aan de stationsgebieden en referentiegebieden, een beter beeld kreeg van de materie die ik in de scriptie ging onderzoeken.

L.J.M Rothkrantz Prof. dr. ir. E.J.H. Kerckhoffs Prof. dr. H. Koppelaar (chairman) Eggenkamp, Gerritjan ([email protected]) Master’s thesis, July 2001 Dynamic Multi Modal Route Planning: an intelligent approach. Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands Faculty of Information Technology and Systems Knowledge Based Systems Group Keywords: Artificial intelligence, Dynamic route planning, Multi modal route planning, Intelligent agents, Expert systems, Personal route guidance. Preface Preface This master’s thesis describes the research I have done to graduate at the Knowledge Based Systems (KBS) of the Delft University of Technology, headed by Prof. dr. H. Koppelaar. This research was done within the Netherlands Research School for Transport, Infrastructure and Logistics, TRAIL, headed by Prof. dr. Ir. P.H. Bovy. Within TRAIL research is carried out into Seamless Multi Modal Transportation (SMM): the utopia in transportation, where travellers are guided during their journey and never have to wait when changing transportation mode, since a central planner knows their destination and allocates transportation means to handle all transportation demands. As we all know this utopia is still day-dreaming, since at the moment it seems even impossible to carry out the train schedules according to plan. During this graduation research it was tried to get one step further towards the SMM utopia: a multi modal route planner was designed that takes into account all known delays.

  • Climate Resilience of Railway Stations in the Netherlands a Risk Assessment for Passenger Stations
    Climate resilience of railway stations in The Netherlands A risk assessment for passenger stations Master Thesis Janieke Scholten December 2020 I The cover of this report shows a photo created by Jos van Zetten II Climate resilience of railway stations in The Netherlands A risk assessment for passenger stations By Janieke Scholten in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Civil Engineering at the Delft University of Technology, to be defended publicly on the 9th of December 2020 at 09:00. Supervisor: Dr. ir. F.H.M. van de Ven TU Delft Thesis committee: Dr. ir. J.G. Langeveld TU Delft Dr. ir. A.J. van Binsbergen TU Delft Ir. J.C.J. Maltha ProRail Ing. A. Toufexes ProRail An electronic version of this thesis is available at http://repository.tudelft.nl/. III IV Acknowledgements With the completion of this graduation thesis, my Master of Science in Civil Engineering at the Delft University of Technology comes to an end. I conducted my research in collaboration with ProRail Stations on the ‘Development and Policy’ department, by means of a graduate internship. When I started, climate adaptation for stations was a relatively unexplored topic at ProRail, which gave me the opportunity to help shape the way climate change is evaluated and addressed. This has stimulated me to challenge myself to work independently and always be critical of my findings. It has also allowed me to combine my interests in water management and climate adaptation, from both a technical and socio-economic perspective. I am therefore thankful for the opportunity ProRail has offered me, and for the trust which I received during the whole process.
