Studying bicyclists’ perceived level of safety using a cycling simulator combined with immersive virtual reality
(2019)There is a need for methods that provide a better understanding of bicyclists’ perceived safety and comfort on currently unavailable bicycling facilities. Different survey methods have been used to study bicyclists’ behaviour, experiences, and preferences; ranging from verbally described bicycling facilities to surveys including images and videos. Virtual Reality (VR) experiments blur the boundaries between SP and RP surveys and provide ...Conference Paper -
Towards Jumping Locomotion for Quadruped Robots on the Moon
(2019)Jumping locomotion has the potential to enable legged robots to overcome obstacles and travel efficiently on low-gravity celestial bodies. We present how the 22kg quadruped robot SpaceBok exploits lunar gravity conditions to perform energy-efficient jumps. The robot achieves repetitive, vertical jumps of more than 0.9m meter and powerful single leaps of up to 1.3m. We present the implementation of a reaction wheel, which allows for control ...Conference Paper -

Avoiding stranded bicycles in free-floating bicycle-sharing systems
(2019)In order to increase the number of bookings and revenue, most free-floating (electric) bicycle sharing operators periodically move bicycles to high demand areas (a process known as rebalancing). As rebalancing is time and cost inten- sive, an important question that arises is which bikes should be moved and which bikes are expected to be booked by the users within an acceptable period of time. In this paper, two survival analysis methods ...Conference Paper -

Data driven value creation in AEC along the building lifecycle
(2019)Interest in the field of data analytics among researchers and practitioners has been rising over the last few years. The digitalization of the built environment leads to increased availability of data, enabling the introduction of data analytics. In this paper we propose a novel framework for data driven value creation in architecture, engineering and construction (AEC). The framework consists of four value creating dimensions, which are ...Conference Paper -
Cross validation of a multi-modal dataset describing temperature-induced rock slope dynamics
(2019)Rock slope destabilization due to warming or thawing permafrost poses a risk to the safety of local communities and infrastructure in populated mountain regions. The analysis of fracture kinematics in the context of local temperature evolution in the longer-term is a common approach aiming to identify its forcing (e.g. Wegmann and Gudmundsson, 1999, Matsuoka and Murton, 2008, Blikra and Christiansen, 2014). Hasler et al. (2012) and Weber ...Conference Poster
