Wang, N. (author), Heijnen, P.W. (author), Verzijlbergh, R.A. (author), Kunneke, R.W. (author), Herder, P.M. (author)Dutch regional municipalities increasingly take an active role in the transition to more sustainable and autonomous energy supply systems, using local energy sources like wind, solar and biomass. The ambition, on the one hand, concerns how an optimal local energy supply system can be designed such that local energy targets can be realized with...abstract 2018

Amoozandeh, A. (author), Radaelli, G. (author), Herder, J.L. (author)A method to achieve symmetric kinetostatic behaviour in an extensive working range at the endpoint of an asymmetric spatial beam, using cross-section optimization, is presented. The objective function of the optimization is defined as expanding the beam working range to the desired region, simultaneously maximizing symmetric behaviour in it....book chapter 2021

Van Riel, W.A.P. (author), Langeveld, J.G. (author), Herder, P.M. (author), Clemens, F.H.L.R. (author)Sewer systems are capital-intensive infrastructures, requiring appropriate asset management to safeguard serviceability. In the Netherlands, effective sewer asset management is described by De Leeuw’s control paradigm. Reliable data and information are key elements in decision-making for rehabilitation and renewal of the assets. Rehabilitation...conference paper 2012

(author)Asset management aims at improving the overall performance of assetintensive industries by making and executing systematic and highest value decisions about the use and care of assets. To assist organizations to improve their asset management performance, maturity models can be used. In this paper we describe two applications of the...conference paper 2012

Volker, L. (author), Scharpff, J. (author), De Weerdt, M.M. (author), Herder, P.M. (author)Transportation networks are important public infrastructures because they enable economic and social activity. Trends in contracting the maintenance of such assets have caused a shift in governance from a public body to market-like arrangements and changed the roles and responsibilities among asset owner, asset manager and service providers....conference paper 2012

Van Riel, W.A.P. (author), Langeveld, J.G. (author), Herder, P.M. (author), Clemens, F.H.L.R. (author)Decision-making for sewer asset management is partially based on intuition and often lacks explicit argumentation, hampering decision transparency and reproducibility. It is unknown to what extent each information source is appreciated by decision makers. Further insight into this relative importance and into implicit factors, improves...conference paper 2014

Mak, Robin (author), Amoozandeh, A. (author), Radaelli, G. (author), Herder, J.L. (author)Differential mechanisms are remarkable mechanical elements that are widely utilized in various systems; nevertheless, conventional differential mechanisms are heavy and difficult to use in applications with limited design space. In this paper, a curved lightweight compliant type of differential mechanism is presented. This mechanism acquires...conference paper 2022

(author)The interconnected nature of the different components of smart grids is a prime example of complexity in technological systems. Developing such systems is highly dependent on the wishes and needs of end-users and other stakeholders. We argue that stakeholder values should be taken into consideration during the design and standardisation of...conference paper 2014

van de Kaa, G. (author), Ligtvoet, A. (author), Fens, T.W. (author), Herder, P.M. (author)Smart home energy systems are technically possible to realize but are not yet applied on a large scale partly due to the fact that no common standards exist that enable interconnection of components that make up these smart energy systems. Multiple standards have been developed which are competing in standards battles. In this paper we conduct a...conference paper 2014

Aghamiri, M. (author), Ghorbani, Amineh (author), Ubacht, J. (author), Herder, P.M. (author)Cities are responsible for 70 percent of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, so they can significantly contribute to emission mitigation. Since cities are sociotechnical systems, reducing emissions requires a combination of technological innovations, social engagement and institutional arrangements. In this study, we take a common pool resource ...conference paper 2017

Bakker, D.L. (author), Matsuura, D. (author), Takeda, Y (author), Herder, J.L. (author)Continuum manipulators are high degree of freedom structures that can use their increased degrees of freedom to navigate through an environment with obstacles. This type of manipulator is underactuated, which make them promising for adapting to their environments. However, current research is mainly focused on accurate positioning and obstacle...conference paper 2015

Herder, J.L. (author), Lustig, M.P. (author), Dunning, A.G. (author)A statically balanced system is in equilibrium in every pose. In classical balancing solutions for serial linkages, each DOF is balanced by an independent element. Disadvantages are increased mass and inertia for counter-mass, and auxiliary links for spring solutions. Recent literature presents a method for balancing serial linkages without...conference paper 2015

Radaelli, G. (author), Herder, J.L. (author)A new monolithic fully compliant gravity balancer is designed with help of a design approach based on shape optimization. The balancer consists of one single complex-shaped beam on which the weight is attached. The beam is modeled as a planar isogeometric Bernoulli beam. The goal function of the optimization consists of an energy based...conference paper 2015
