Chimmalgi, S. (author), Prins, Peter J. (author), Wahls, S. (author)We present a nonlinear Fourier transform algorithm whose accuracy, at a comparable runtime and for moderate step sizes, is orders of magnitude better than that of the classical Boffetta-Osborne method.conference paper 2018

Wahls, S. (author), Chimmalgi, S. (author), Prins, Peter J. (author)The conventional Fourier transform was originally developed in order to solve the heat equation, which is a standard example for a linear evolution equation. Nonlinear Fourier transforms (NFTs)1 are generalizations of the conventional Fourier transform that can be used to solve certain nonlinear evolution equations in a similar way (Ablowitz et...journal article 2018

Abspoel, R. (author), Stark, J.W.B. (author), Prins, H.-J. (author)Composite slabs are designed to transfer loads in one direction e.g. the longitudinal direction of the ribs. To reduce the deflection, it is useful to realise a continuous slab with at least one intermediate support. At the intermediate support in addition to a hogging bending moment a rather large vertical shear force will act. For the...conference paper 2018

Prins, Peter J. (author), Wahls, S. (author)Non-linear Fourier Transforms (NFTs) enable the analysis of signals governed by certain non-linear evolution equations in a way that is analogous to how the conventional Fourier transform is used to analyse linear wave equations. Recently, fast numerical algorithms have been derived for the numerical computation of certain NFTs. In this paper,...conference paper 2018

(author)Objectives: Diminished function of the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) is a typical finding in early Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It is hypothesized that in early stage AD, PCC functioning relates to or reflects hippocampal dysfunction or atrophy. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between hippocampus function, volume and...journal article 2017

Ploeger, H.D. (author), Prins, M. (author), Straub, A. (author), van den Brink, R. (author)The concept that suppliers retain ownership of building products and the materials encapsulated within these products and that their customers ‘only’ pay for services is a paradigm in Circular Economy. However in many legal systems, elements incorporated in a building such as the facade or the roof, or equipment in a plant, are seen as fixtures...conference paper 2017

van den Brink, R. (author), Prins, M. (author), Straub, A. (author), Ploeger, H.D. (author)After its launch, the circular economy gained popularity all over the world as the new sustainability paradigm. Despite its popularity there is little to no material to be found on the implementation of the circular economy in the construction industry. Through a mixed method methodology using literature reviews, case studies, thought exercises,...conference paper 2017

In this study, we test the hypothesis that aerobic exercise increases cerebral blood flow (CBF) in patients with vascular cognitive impairment (VCI).

Geraedts, Rob P. (author), Prins, M. (author)Market developments show increased demands for flexibility and sustainability by users and owners of buildings. A direct connection can be made between adaptive building and sustainability. The longer a building can keep its functional life cycle instead of becoming vacant or being demolished, the more sustainable a building will be. One way of...conference paper 2016

Lousberg, L.H.M.J. (author), Heintz, J.L. (author), Prins, M. (author)Problems that present project managers have to deal with are more and more concerning complexity, i.e. unexpected, uncertain, unstable or unique situations. This seems also the case with sustainable building projects. It is therefore necessary that project managers are trained to deal with these problems, especially by learning from their...conference paper 2015

The transition of a circular economy will also have a significant impact on the way in which building projects are carried out. This in addition to an already established escalation of stakeholder involvement and performance...conference paper 2015
