Casali, Y. (author), Aydin, N.Y. (author), Comes, M. (author)Urban areas are dynamic systems, in which different infrastructural, social and economic subsystems continuously co-evolve. As such, disruptions in one system can propagate to another. However, open challenges remain in (i) assessing the long-term implications of change for resilience and (ii) understanding how resilience propagates...journal article 2024

van de Ven, F.H.M. (author), Zevenbergen, C. (author), Avellar Montezuma, M. (author), Ding, Zihang (author), Veerbeek, William (author), Chen, Shiyang (author)Urban water management is confronted with more frequent, more extreme weather events. This paper introduces the Three-Points Approach (3PA) into Sponge City concept, to create a novel framework aimed at guiding water management interventions across local, urban, regional, and river basin scales. The 3PA integrates three domains—Day-to-day,...journal article 2024

(author), Hirota, Marina (author), Conradi, Timo (author), de Keersmaecker, Wanda (author), Van Meerbeek, Koenraad (author), Somers, Ben (author)Dynamic ecosystems, such as the Amazon forest, are expected to show critical slowing down behavior, or slower recovery from recurrent small perturbations, as they approach an ecological threshold to a different ecosystem state. Drought occurrences are becoming more prevalent across the Amazon, with known negative effects on forest health and...journal article 2024

Cañizares Gaztelu, J.C. (author)Today, resilience is used in many societal contexts for understanding how things respond to risks and for improving their performance in this regard, having also become a prominent approach for adapting to climate change. Yet, despite the broad appeal of resilience and resilience-based approaches within and outside academia, there are persisting...doctoral thesis 2023

Urbanism is a way of thinking and acting needed for sustainable development; urbanists are becoming inter- and transdisciplinary, bringing science, technology, and design into their field. As the world is in a cascading of crises related to, e.g., health, energy, food, and water, as well as issues of, e.g., traffic, housing, and services,...book 2023

Bal, Frans (author), Vleugel, J (author)Climate change is related with weather extremes, which may cause damages to infrastructure used by freight transport services. Heavy rainfall may lead to flooding and damage to railway lines, roads and inland waterways. Extreme drought may lead to extremely low water levels, which prevent safe navigation by inland barges. Wet and dry periods may...journal article 2023

Price, R.A. (author), van der Bijl-Brouwer, M. (author)In this paper, we explore how resilience and wellbeing can integrate into, and improve design pedagogy. We establish 10 principles for designer resilience from workshops with students, educators and design practitioners. Each principle offers a platform to develop subsequent learning activities that remedy hollow didactic statements observed...conference paper 2023

van Marle, Margreet (author), Jafino, B.A. (author), Lourens, Lotte (author), Hüsken, Lieke (author)Transportation plays a pivotal role in society in the accessibility of socio-economic functions, such as education and health services. At the same time these transport networks are put under pressure due to increasing demands and the often-increasing occurrence of climate-induced events. To increase resilience of the transportation network...journal article 2023

Sitzenfrei, Robert (author), Qiu, Mengning (author), Ostfeld, Avi (author), Savic, Dragan (author), Kapelan, Z. (author)Water distribution networks (WDNs) are a vital component of urban water infrastructure. They transport water from production sites (sources) to spatially distributed consumers (sinks). Multiobjective optimization procedures are often used to minimize construction costs and at the same time maximize the resilience of such systems, which is...conference paper 2023
