Elmendorp, R.J.M. (author), Vos, R. (author), La Rocca, G. (author)A design method is presented that has been implemented in a software program to investigate the merits of conventional and unconventional transport airplanes. Design and analysis methods are implemented in a design tool capable of creating a conceptual design based on a set of toplevel requirements. In contrast to established design methods,...conference paper 2014

Negro, E. (author), Latsuzbaia, R. (author), De Vries, A.H. (author), Koper, G.J.M. (author)Microemulsions are exciting systems that are promising as tuneable self-assembling templating reaction vessels at the nanoscale. Determination of the nano-structure of microemulsions is, however, not trivial, and there are fundamental questions regarding their design. We were able to reproduce experimental data for an important microemulsion...journal article 2014

Tan, R.E. (author)An understanding of cities as open systems whose agents act on them simultaneously from below and above, influencing urban processes by their interaction with them and with each other, is replacing the simplistic debate on urban participation which asks whether cities should be organized bottom-up or top-down. This conceptualization of cities as...doctoral thesis 2014

Rotteveel, E. (author), Hekkenberg, R.G. (author), Liu, J. (author)For inland ships, state-of-the-art hull form design is to a large extent based on experience, common sense, or adjusting previous designs. The idea therefore arises that further optimization is possible if the right knowledge is available. This knowledge is insufficiently available due to two main reasons. First, research into inland ship...conference paper 2014
