In addition to the tools and techniques available, project risk management also depends on the attitudes of people in an organisation, how the available tools are used, and how the procedures are followed. Therefore, efforts to improve the project risk management capacity of organisations may fail if the diversity of people (characters, traits...

In the ever-changing landscape of the 21st century, complex issues like climate change demand holistic solutions. However, traditional scientific approaches often fall short by employing reductionism, breaking problems into isolated parts. This executive summary introduces a thesis that calls for a shift towards a more holistic and...

In today’s construction projects, which are getting more complex as a consequence of especially technical, organizational, and external aspects, complexities are considered a major source of risks. Moreover, risks may turn to complexity-creating elements and propagate additional risks through a bidirectional interaction. Complex construction...

Flexible housing is offered as a way to extend the lifespan of architecture. This research paper explores the different ways to design flexible housing through the publications of Habraken, Brand, and Leupens as well as the findings by organizations like OBOM and Openbuilding.co. Three modern housing projects in Amsterdam, Superlofts houthavens,...

The outcomes of complex projects regularly reveal the failure of management, when trying to control them towards a predicted outcome. This article reports on a study looking at the emergence of unmanageability in these projects. It takes as a point of departure that the occurrence of unmanageability cannot be attributed to a limited set of...

Complex underground infrastructure construction projects tend to develop in a state of “bounded manageability”. Various types of uncertainties are inherent to these projects and put the project manager in front of serious challenges, risking budget overruns, delays and sometimes even technical failure. Managing such a project is a matter of...

In situ gelation of water-in-oil polymer emulsions is a key method to produce hydrogel particles. Although this approach is in principle ideal for encapsulating bioactive components such as cells, the oil phase can interfere with straightforward presentation of crosslinker molecules. Several approaches have been developed to induce in-emulsion...

Often, when designing and operating buildings, the goal is to achieve low energy consumption as well as a healthy and comfortable indoor environment. Studies in the US and The Netherlands show a large discrepancy between the predicted and the actual energy consumption of buildings. Some buildings perform better than predicted, while other...

Thermisch comfort is belangrijk. Voor het ontwerpen van het binnenklimaat, dimensioneren van klimaatinstallaties en beoordelen van het binnenklimaat in de praktijk is een comfortabel en gezond binnenklimaat één van de belangrijkste uitgangspunten. Simulaties van het ontwerp of metingen in praktijksituaties worden getoetst aan comfortcriteria....

By the earlier derived theory of the embedding strength, based on limit design, it is possible to explain the extremely high embedding strength of nailed particle board to wood joints leading to a new exact failure equation for the embedding strength as necessary correction for design and for the Codes.

Due to the uncertainty involved in many complex infrastructure engineering projects, it is not always possible for managers to establish detailed terms of reference at the departure. Although the flexibility of ‘open’ terms of reference is often indispensible, it makes the arrival at a successful outcome much of a gamble. Complex infrastructure...
