El Ahmar, S. (author), Fioravanti, A. (author), Hanafi, M. (author)Biomimicry, where nature is emulated as a basis for design, is a growing area of research in the fields of architecture and engineering. The widespread and practical application of biomimicry as a design approach remains however largely unrealized. A growing body of international research identifies various obstacles to the employment of...conference paper 2013

Ligtvoet, A. (author), van de Kaa, G. (author), Fens, T.W. (author), van den Hoven, M.J. (author), van Beers, Cees (author), Herder, P.M. (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

Rothkrantz, L.J.M. (author)Technically e-learning material can be downloaded from a PC environment to a mobile phone environment. But the context, environment, physical limitations of a mobile phone, sets limits to a mobile learning environment. The didactic model cannot be transferred usually from e-learning to mobile learning environment. In an experiment we test the...conference paper 2015

Spross, J. (author), Olsson, L. (author), Hintze, S. (author), Stille, H. (author)To reduce the costs of unexpected geotechnical events in construction projects in Sweden, the Swedish Geotechnical Society has adopted a general methodology for risk management. In this paper, we exemplify how the proposed risk management philosophy could have been applied on a sheet-pile wall, which failed in 1992 in Stockholm because the...conference paper 2015

Fan, K. (author), Qian, Q.K. (author), Chan, E.H.W. (author)Gross Floor Area (GFA) concession scheme, as a planning incentive, is developed from the notion of “make developers pay” in UK in 1990. It rewards developers additional GFA in exchange for public amenities so that government could save that amount of money.
