Arfa, F. (author), Lubelli, B. (author), Quist, W.J. (author), Zijlstra, H. (author)Adaptive reuse (AR) of heritage buildings is a complex process involving many stakeholders with different ambitions. Recently, a theoretical model has been proposed to facilitate this process. However, the validation of this model and investigation of the nexus between process steps, methods/tools used by architects, and the effectiveness of...journal article 2024

Vega-Garita, Victor (author), Alpizar-Gutierrez, Veronica (author), Alpizar Castillo, J.J. (author)Along with the widespread adoption of solar energy, it is fundamental to develop methods and tools that help practitioners during the design phase of photovoltaic (PV) systems. Currently, multiple commercial software can quantify a particular location's annual energy yield while including the horizon's shading effect (e.g., mountains,...journal article 2023

Cash, Philip (author), Daalhuizen, Jaap (author), Hekkert, P.P.M. (author)The increasingly transdisciplinary context of design, where designers collaborate with other disciplinary and domain experts, means there is a growing need to evidence the effectiveness of design methods. We address this need in two ways. First, we propose a ‘chain of evidence’, from motivation to claims, operationalising this in a systematic...journal article 2023

Kunneman, Youetta (author), Alves da Motta-Filho, Mauricy (author), van der Waa, J.S. (author)To support effective and successful projects, Service Design practitioners rely on insights that mainly build on qualitative research methodology. The literature on data science promises to help transform how design research is done, adding sophisticated quantitative analyses, complementing existing methods with the power of machines. Due to...journal article 2022

Kurnitski, Jarek (author), Kiil, Martin (author), Wargocki, Pawel (author), Boerstra, A.C. (author), Seppänen, Olli (author), Olesen, Bjarne (author), Morawska, Lidia (author)A new design method is proposed to calculate outdoor air ventilation rates to control respiratory infection risk in indoor spaces. We propose to use this method in future ventilation standards to complement existing ventilation criteria based on the perceived air quality and pollutant removal. The proposed method makes it possible to...journal article 2021

De Fazio, F. (author), Bakker, C.A. (author), Flipsen, Bas (author), Balkenende, R. (author)Designers and engineers need better tools and methods to create highly repairable products. Design for disassembly and reassembly is an important product related design feature that can enhance repair. In a highly repairable product, the components that fail most often should be easily accessible for repair or replacement. This paper...journal article 2021

Lucho Lingan, C.R. (author), Li, M. (author), Vermeeren, A.P.O.S. (author)The present work introduces a cyclical model which showcases the process of immersion during Immersive Technological Experiences (ITEs) such as Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and Mixed Reality. This model is based on the identified concepts around immersion and immersive environments across 30 years. The concepts' similarities were used...journal article 2021

Ozkaramanli, D (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author), Ozcan Vieira, E. (author)Personal dilemmas are inspiring phenomena, which can stimulate design creativity and reflection on users’ goals and values. This paper aims to provide an overview of the main challenges involved in Dilemma-Driven Design (DDD). We first introduce three main activities performed when designing with dilemmas: Identifying dilemmas (discovery),...journal article 2020

Alkadri, M.F. (author), De Luca, Francesco (author), Turrin, M. (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author)This study proposes a voxel-based design approach based on the subtractive mechanism of shading envelopes and attributes information of point cloud data in tropical climates. In particular, the proposed method evaluates a volumetric sample of new buildings based on predefined shading performance criteria. With the support of geometric and...journal article 2020

Kun, P. (author), Mulder, I. (author), Kortuem, G.W. (author)The increasing availability of large-scale datasets such as sensor data or social media data and increasingly accessible data science tools create unique<br/>opportunities for design. However, the relationship between data science practices and design methods is still underdeveloped. In this paper, we propose that data exploration activities can...journal article 2020

Alkadri, M.F. (author), De Luca, Francesco (author), Turrin, M. (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author)As a passive design strategy, solar envelopes play a significant role in determining building mass based on desirable sun access during a predefined period. Nowadays, advancements in the area of computational tools permit designers to develop new methods for establishing solar envelopes. However, current approaches lack an understanding of the...journal article 2020

O'Kelly, Brendan C. (author), Nogal Macho, M. (author)This paper presents a critical review of the grading entropy approach of permeability-coefficient predictions (k P) for coarse-grained soils. The approach applies the grading entropy theory to particle-size distributions (PSDs), such that the entirety of each gradation curve can be interpreted as a single point on a grading entropy chart,...journal article 2020

Pavlovic, Milica (author), Bier, H.H. (author), Pillan, Margherita (author)Ambient User Experience (Ambient UX) is a conceptual framework providing a strategy for design processes that target cyber-physical spaces. Such design processes interface Wireless Sensor-Actuator Networks (WSAN), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and physically built environments. For managing the complexity of such design processes and ensuring...journal article 2020

Friedrich, H.C. (author)Immediate Systems are defined as systems that overcome the limitations of remote design by embedding design and implementation in situations of use. This paper extends the theoretical framing of IS and traces three approaches towards IS in architecture: as adhocist mode of action, as acceleration of design transfer and as human-architecture...journal article 2020

Chatty, T. (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author)How do employees perceive the impact of incorporating sustainability considerations into their product development practice? In this case study, we observe how these perceptions can be shifted by teaching workshops on how to apply sustainable design methods in practice. We compare the trends for different methods on various dimensions such as...journal article 2020

Introducing a tool to support reflection through sketching and prototyping during the design processJobst, B.S. (author), Thoring, K.C. (author), Badke-Schaub, P.G. (author)Sketching and prototyping are parts of a 'reflective conversation with materials of a design situation' (Schön, 1992). To support this conversation, we developed a reflective tool -the Reflection Canvas- that facilitates reflection activities through sketching and prototyping on the one hand and verbalisation on the other. We introduced the...journal article 2020

Faludi, Jeremy (author), Yiu, Felix (author), Agogino, Alice (author)Recommendations of sustainable design methods are usually based on theory, not empirical industry tests. Furthermore, since professionals often mix components of different design methods, recommending whole methods may not be relevant. It may be better to recommend component activities or mindsets. To provide empirical grounding for...journal article 2020

Stewart, Shelby (author), Giambalvo, Jack (author), Vance, Julia (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), Hoffenson, Steven (author)Many different product development approaches are taught and used in engineering and management disciplines. These formalized design methods, processes, and environments differ in the types of projects for which they are relevant, the project components they include, and the support they provide users. This paper details a review of sixteen...journal article 2020
