Stoter, J.E. (author), Ploeger, H.D. (author), Louwman, W. (author), Van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author), Wuensch, B. (author)The rights of cadastral objects may relate to spaces above or below the earth surface. The fact that several legal spaces of objects can be located above or below the same surface parcel may cause confusion in practice. In the Netherlands the location of 3D objects are in fact only represented in the well known 2D cadastral map. Complex 3D...conference paper 2011

Mulder, B. (author), La Rocca, G. (author), Schut, J. (author), Verhagen, W.J.C. (author)A short lead time of the Product Development Process (PDP) is an important competitive advantage for companies. Design automation solutions provide a means to reduce the lead time and improve quality, but their development requires some investment. Before a company can commit to the development of an automation initiative, it requires an...conference paper 2015

Bosman, G. (author), Van der Meer, J.W. (author), Hoffmans, G. (author), Schüttrumpf, H. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author)Recently, formulae have been derived for maximum flow depths and velocities on the crest and inner slope of dikes or levees at wave overtopping. Two independent physical model test programs in different wave flumes showed, however, a large difference in the results. The present paper clarifies this discrepancy and shows that the empirical...conference paper 2008

Magalhaes Pereira, L.F. (author), Weerheijm, J. (author), Sluys, L.J. (author)The development of realistic numerical tools to efficiently model the response of concrete structures subjected to close-in detonations and high velocity impacts has been one of the major quests in defense research. Under these loading conditions, quasi-brittle materials undergo a multitude of failure (damage) mechanisms. Dynamic tensile failure...conference paper 2015

Chmieliauskas, A. (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), Dijkema, G.P.J. (author)AgentSpring is a new agent-based modeling framework especially suited to model and simulate complex socio-technical systems, such as energy markets or transport infrastructures. Common problems encountered when modeling and analyzing such systems are how to represent the variety of facts that describe the system and how to allow agents to make...conference paper 2012

Vaes, K.R.V. (author), Stappers, P.J. (author), Standaert, A. (author), Desager, K. (author)Assistive, protective or medical products that are visibly worn or used in proximity to the human body can have an emotional impact on their users and bystanders. In his design effort it is important for a designer to be mindful of the potential stigma a product might elicit. The identity threat model of Major (2005) is used as a stepping-stone...conference paper 2012

Zhu, Y. (author), Heynderickx, I. (author), Redi, J.A. (author)In the past decades, a lot of effort has been invested in predicting the users’ Quality of Visual Experience (QoVE) in order to optimize online video delivery. So far, the objective approaches to measure QoVE have been mainly based on an estimation of the visibility of artifacts generated by signal impairments at the moment of delivery and on a...conference paper 2014

Jiang, J. (author), Aldewereld, H.M. (author), Dignum, V. (author), Tan, Y. (author)Agents interact with each other within a set of norms, which is expressed at different levels of abstraction that capture different con- texts and operationalizations. Current normative frameworks deal with norm operationalization, yet few consider the contextual aspects of norms. Moreover, most frameworks are based on the independent...conference paper 2012

(author)A wind tunnel model containing a solid rocket motor was tested at Mach 2 to assess the feasibility of investigating the interaction between a hot plume and a high-speed outer stream. In addition to Schlieren visualisation, the feasibility of applying PIV was explored. Recorded particle images revealed that the hot plume scatters and reflects...conference paper 2015

Louwersheimer, W.F. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author), Olthof, J. (author)During the construction of the first Dutch offshore wind farm prototype measurements were performed. These measurements were aimed to monitor the behaviour of the granular filter layer of the scour protection around the mono-piles upon which the wind turbines are founded. These measurements were compared to scale model test results and...conference paper 2007

Peeters, D.M.J. (author), Abdalla, M.M. (author)A method to optimise the fibre angle distribution of variable stiffness laminates is proposed. The proposed method integrates a fibre angle retrieval step with a fibre angle optimisation procedure. A multi-level approximation approach is used in combination with the method of successive approximations. First, fibre angle retrieval is done by...conference paper 2015

Leurs, B. (author), Schelling, J. (author), Mulder, I.J. (author)a problem due to a lack of space, a group of 50 design students had to move to another building. Having a dedicated space in an historical building turned the initial setback into an opportunity. Design students usually do not have the luxury of having their own design studio. By observing and interviewing the students over a period of 5 months,...conference paper 2013

Yet, the rate of current urbanization is unprecedented and might increase future flood risk dramatically. To gain insight in this issue, a study on urban development has been performed using 3 case study areas: the megacities of...conference paper 2011
