Cross me if you can: approach to CO2 through mobility in the areas of cross-border regions

Cities are responsible for a great amount of CO2 emissions related to transportation (CBS). However, the greatest amount of CO2 is caused by private transport and is mainly associated with peri-urban (the peri-urban area is a common place to live for the natural environment and also near accessibility to city facilities) and rural areas due to...

Protecting the south-west of the Netherlands against flood using an adaptive design approach

The Netherlands is world famous when it comes to coastal defence. The world is always changing, therefore the Netherlands, together with many countries, has to adapt constantly to the climate. This constant change means that in particular the coastline of the Netherlands requires extra attention because of the uncertainty of sea level rise. The...

Hydrological and hydrodynamic processes and their impact on spatial characteristics of Terminos Lagoon, Mexico

Terminos Lagoon is the biggest and ecologically most important fluvial-lagoon system of the southern Gulf of Mexico. Rivers, sea and meteorology all influence the lagoon, variable over the year, resulting in a complex situation. To protect this area, it is crucial to know how different hydrological processes, hydrodynamic processes and spatial...

Fieldwork Coastal Engineering: Varna (Bulgaria)

For the course CT5318 a trip is made to Varna, Bulgaria, where hydraulic measurement s on the beach and the coastal structures are executed by the students. This report describes the measured data, the used methods and the technical interpretation of the results. All the data was processed in Varna and analysed once returned in the Netherlands....

Toestandsvergelijkingen voor polymeren

Voor vloeistoffen -zowel monomere als polymere- is het opstellen van een theorie die nauwkeurige resultaten geeft voor onder andere de toestandsvergelijking (p,V,T-vergelijking) een nog groter probleem dan voor vaste stoffen (kristallijn) of gassen (ver boven het kritisch punt). Enerzijds heeft men te maken met een systeem dat ongeordend is en...
