Dr.ir. Martine van den Boomen MBA

Profile

Martine van den Boomen is a principal researcher in infrastructure life cycle management in the section Integral Design and Management. She obtained her PhD on replacement optimisation under uncertainty for public infrastructure assets in 2020. Martine graduated cum laude at the Delft University of Technology in 1996. In parallel, Martine has been appointed as applied research professor in asset management at the Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences. Her other activity involves asset management consultancy. Martine is well known with the practical challenges of infrastructure life cycle management.

Research

My research addresses the time-variant economic optimisation of replacement and maintenance decisions. It deals with uncertainties on structural integrity, failure rates, external events, price increases and discount rates and acknowledges the managerial flexibility to optimise future decision as more information becomes available.
