Bouwmeester, J. (author), Gill, E.K.A. (author), Speretta, S. (author), Uludag, M.S. (author)The dominant architectural approach in CubeSats and PocketQubes is the use of modular physical units, each hosting (part of the) components of classical (virtual) subsystems. Many of these small satellites, however, also host subsystems or experiments with slightly alternative approach, e.g. with cellularization of components or the integration...journal article 2018

Manzoni, Beatrice (author), Volker, L. (author)Despite their business relevance, creative professional service firms are under-researched, in particular with regard to how they compete for work. Competing for work is key to survival, but also extremely challenging due to the complexity of the services offered. In this paper we use a paradox framework to investigate the opposing demands...journal article 2017

Davis, Michael (author), Tenpierik, M.J. (author), Ramirez, Francisco (author), Perez, Maria Elena (author)Up to 44% of EU residents are exposed to noise levels that are detrimental to health. In this context, vertical gardens could play an important role in architectural acoustics, where the main absorber material is the substrate soil. Plants have a beneficial effect for higher frequencies when planted in a large density. In this paper a vertical...journal article 2017
