Hamida, M.B. (author), Gruis, V.H. (author)Bevolkingsgroei, marktdynamiek, vastgoedleegstand en veroudering van gebouwen zijn enkele aanleidingen voor transformatie van gebouwen. De laatste decennia zijn er al veel transformatieprojecten uitgevoerd, mede als oplossing voor leegstand (zie 11. Transformatiemeter kantoren). Sinds kort wordt gebouwtransformatie ook als een veelbelovend...book chapter 2024

Poulis, J.A. (author), Kwakernaak, A. (author)The surface treatment of plastics as well as metals or ceramics includes a thorough surface cleaning as an essential step prior to adhesive bonding and coating processes. Besides this, surface activation of polymers is often needed because their surface free energy is too low for durable adhesion of a coating or adhesive. In this chapter...book chapter 2024

Hess, Daniel Baldwin (author), Tammaru, Tiit (author), van Ham, M. (author)It has been nearly fifteen years since a large European Union–funded project called RESTATE explored challenges in housing estates throughout several European countries and served as a clearinghouse for the exchange of ideas for counteracting negative trends in large housing estates (van Kempen et al. 2005). Since that time, a series of riots in...book chapter 2024

Diaz, Vitali (author), Corzo Perez, Gerald A. (author), Van Lanen, Henny A.J. (author), Solomatine, D.P. (author)In its three-dimensional (3-D) characterization, drought is an event whose spatial extent changes over time. Each drought event has an onset and end time, a location, a magnitude, and a spatial trajectory. These characteristics help to analyze and describe how drought develops in space and time (i.e., drought dynamics). Methodologies for 3-D...book chapter 2024

Liu, Zhengxuan (author), Sun, Ying (author), Huang, Ruopeng (author)The increasing greenhouse gas (CO2) emissions constitute one of the most significant global environmental issues. CO2 emissions from buildings and transportation are responsible for the largest proportion of total global carbon emissions from various sectors. Therefore it is necessary to utilize clean energy sources (e.g., renewable energy,...book chapter 2024

Peck, David (author)The construction sector in the European Union is the biggest producer of waste when compared to other economic sectors. Waste prevention could reduce greenhouse emissions by up to 80%. Much of the material demand is from primary mined material sources and both this demand and primary supply have seen an exponential rise in the twenty-first...book chapter 2024

Holthuizen, Patrick (author), Zhou, Y. (author), Šavija, B. (author), Copuroglu, Oguzhan (author)The Stiffness Damage Test (SDT), a cyclic test in compression, is considered as a reliable tool for assessing concrete structures affected by ASR. Depending on the extent of ASR damage in concrete, loading levels up to 40% of the compressive strength may contribute to increasing internal damage during testing. Nevertheless, previous research...book chapter 2024
