Bocken, Nancy (author), Baldassarre, Brian (author), Keskin, Duygu (author), Diehl, J.C. (author)Design thinking is an innovation approach for organisations aiming to solve complex and open-ended problems, including those arising in the transition from a linear to a circular economic system. Although the importance has been recognised in business and academia, to date, insight is lacking on how design thinking can be applied within...book chapter 2024

Baldassarre, B.R. (author), Calabretta, G. (author), Karpen, Ingo Oswald (author), Bocken, Nancy (author), Hultink, H.J. (author)In the 1960s, influential thinkers defined design as a rational problem-solving approach to deal with the challenges of sustainable human development. In 2009, a design consultant and a business academic selected some of these ideas and successfully branded them with the term “design thinking.” As a result, design thinking has developed into...review 2024

Hartley, Kris (author), Baldassarre, B.R. (author), Kirchherr, Julian (author)The early 2020s have been characterized by multiple convergent crises, including the Covid-19 pandemic and economic fallout of mitigation measures, Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and the ongoing sustainability and climate change crisis. This article discusses how the concept of the circular economy can inform responses to such crises by...review 2024

Konietzko, Jan (author), Baldassarre, B.R. (author), Bocken, Nancy (author), Ritala, Paavo (author)To achieve a transformation toward the circular economy, organizations need to take an ecosystem perspective and consider multiple complementary actors that are needed to deliver circularity as a collective outcome. However, practitioners and scholars lack an understanding of the initial phases of ecosystem creation, in terms of how to get...book chapter 2024

Baldassarre, B.R. (author), Calabretta, G. (author)The circular economy aims to decouple economic growth from negative environmental impacts. To achieve this goal, circular economy concepts and policies must be implemented in practice by organizations through new circular business models. However, organizations often fail to implement circular business models on the market at scale. This is a...journal article 2023

Baldassarre, B.R. (author), Maury, Thibaut (author), Mathieux, Fabrice (author), Garbarino, Elena (author), Antonopoulos, Ioannis (author), Sala, Serenella (author)The circular economy aims to decouple growth from environmental impacts by optimizing resource use, minimizing waste and pollution. The European Union (EU) has the ambition to lead a circular economy transition on a global level. Realizing the transition is complex, because it requires substantial and interconnected changes in the current...journal article 2022

Brown, P.D. (author), Baldassarre, B.R. (author), Konietzko, J.C. (author), Bocken, N.M.P. (author), Balkenende, R. (author)Circular oriented innovation aims to address sustainability problems such as resource scarcity, pollution and climate change by (re)designing industrial products, processes, business models, and value network configurations. Although the literature identifies collaboration as crucial for circular oriented innovation—due to the complexity,...journal article 2021

Baldassarre, Alessandro (author), Martinez, Marcias (author), Rans, C.D. (author)The present study reports on the evaluation of residual stress field formation and distribution in Central Cut Plies (CCP) specimens. Real-time measurements were performed using a distributed sensing fiber optic system based on Rayleigh Backscattering, which was successfully able to capture strain distribution inside the adhesive layer at...review 2020

van Dam, Kirsten (author), Simeone, Luca (author), Keskin, Duygu (author), Baldassarre, B.R. (author), Niero, Monia (author), Morelli, Nicola (author)In the past decades, industrial design practice and research have focused extensively on how to optimize production and consumption, as a way to prevent negative environmental impacts, such as resource depletion, pollution, and excessive waste. Recently, the “circular economy” concept is increasingly used to achieve environmental benefits and...journal article 2020

(author)Next to the redesign of industrial products and processes, sustainable business model innovation is a strategic approach to integrate environmental and social concerns into the objectives and operations of organizations. One of the major challenges of this approach is that many promising business model ideas fail to reach the market, which is...journal article 2020

Baldassarre, Alessandro (author), Ocampo, Juan (author), Martinez, Marcias (author), Rans, C.D. (author)The application of strain gauges as recommended by the ASTM standards provides accurate strain measurements in isotropic materials. However, their use in composite materials becomes more challenging due to their anisotropic nature. In this study, we hypothesized that the use of the distributed sensing system and the three-dimensional digital...journal article 2020
