Deep Vision-based Relative Localisation by Monocular Drones

Decentralised drone swarms need real time collision avoidance, thus requiring efficient, real time relative localisation. This paper explores different data inputs for vision based relative localisation. It introduces a novel dataset generated in <i>Blender</i>, providing ground truth optic flow and depth. Comparisons to <i>MPI Sintel</i>, an...

3D Concrete Printing: Exploration into stability of 3D printed thin-walled concrete elements during manufacturing

An exploration into the stability of 3D printed thin-walled concrete elements during manufacturing is presented. The failure mechanisms, material parameters and analysis methods are presented. Self-buckling is the dominant failure mechanism, where the Young's modulus plays an important role. Material experiments to assess the Young's modulus are...

Reactivation of the Berkel River Side: Hospitality institute along the Berkel

A transformation of the building complex Dullaert &amp; C&amp;A  along the Overwelving in Zutphen. Through architectural interventions the aim was to create a design that improves the meeting of different connections and traffic flows, and brings back the identity and purpose of the Overwelving within the city. The new intervention and...

Project Ruta Nacional 90

The highway Ruta Nacional 90 (between Barranquilla and Santa Marta) is heavily endangered by progressive coastal erosion. Principally, this has a natural cause since the shifting mouth of the Magdalena River led to an insufficient supply of sediment. However, this threat has been foreseen for decades without it leading to adequate planning or...

A new user experience for collecting biobased disposables at festivals: A case for Lowlands

Implementing biobased disposables for the festival Lowlands is the basis for this project. Making use of biobased disposables offers specific waste processing purposes. A collecting system of waste at a festival works best for a situation where visitors cooperate within the complete waste system. For Lowlands litter behaviour is questioned....
