Rojo-Santiago, Jesús (author), Korevaar, Erik (author), Perko, Z. (author), Both, Stefan (author), Habraken, S.J.M. (author), Hoogeman, M.S. (author)Background and purpose: In the Netherlands, head-and-neck cancer (HNC) patients are referred for proton therapy (PT) through model-based selection (MBS). However, treatment errors may compromise adequate CTV dose. Our aims are: (i) to derive probabilistic plan evaluation metrics on the CTV consistent with clinical metrics; (ii) to evaluate...journal article 2023

Noori, S. (author), Korevaar, G. (author), Stikkelman, R.M. (author), Ramirez, Andrea (author)Self-organized industrial symbiosis (IS) starts with one actor's decision to invest in a waste recovery plant and the other actors' decision to buy the recovered flow. Technical and institutional conditions of the cluster influence actors' decisions. This paper explores the emergence of IS collaborations in industrial clusters under different...journal article 2023

Tsalidis, G.A. (author), Korevaar, G. (author)Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a powerful tool for achieving sustainability. Traditional LCAs analyze well defined and developed industrial systems, but recent developments of LCA focus on analyzing emerging technologies which are not yet optimized with respect to energy and materials. Therefore, LCA results of ex-ante applications can be...journal article 2022

Lange, K.P.H. (author), Korevaar, G. (author), Nikolic, I. (author), Herder, P.M. (author)Industrial Symbiosis Networks (ISNs) consist of firms that exchange residual materials and energy locally, in order to gain economic, environmental and/or social advantages. In practice, ISNs regularly fail when partners leave and the recovery of residual streams ends. Regarding the current societal need for a shift towards sustainability, it is...journal article 2021
