The transition towards electric mobility is expected to take off the coming years, as more EV car models access the market and charging infrastructure is being expanded. The expansion of charging infrastructure will have to accelerate to keep pace with the fast-growing need for charging. The coming years …

Exhaust emissions from motorized vehicles are not only harmful to the environment but also on human health. At the same time, motorists are not necessarily aware of the adverse health effects resulting from their emissions. In this work, we use the health aspect as a primary motivation factor in the …

Exhaust emissions from motorized vehicles are not only harmful to the environment but also to human health. However, motorists are not necessarily aware of the adverse health effects resulting from their emissions. In this work, we use the health aspect as a primary motivation factor in the design of …

Voor logistieke bedrijven en fleetowners betekent de omschakeling naar elektrisch rijden een aanzienlijke extra capaciteit om de voertuigen op te laden. Om inzichtelijk te maken hoeveel ruimte er nog is op een locatie om elektrische voertuigen op te laden binnen het gecontracteerde vermogen en het aansluitvermogen, …

Improved remote sensing in the field of UAV (Unmanned Air Vehicle) and SFM (Structure From Motion) photography provides the potential for efficient access to forest inventory parameters. These parameters help identify the forest structure, calculate carbon stocks, support sustainable timber extraction …

The adaptation of high capacity vehicles (HCVs) into existing commercial vehicle fleets have been considered a potential solution for reducing emissions, operational costs and infrastructure damages. However, due to increased length and number of articulations, there are challenges associated with HCVs …

Docking or parking articulated vehicles is a difficult task which further becomes complex with increasing number of articulations, which can be arduous for even professional drivers. Driver’s limited view and perception coupled with divergent instability of articulated vehicles in reverse motion are …

Extreme winter weather conditions severely affect the transportation sector. Technologies such as Road Weather Information Systems provide live data on the road surface conditions to assist the road authorities in providing safe mobility. The main problem is, however, the limited number of such systems …
