Unlike some of its neighboring countries, the Netherlands do not have a strong tradition in public design contests. As of old, this kind of procedures are unpopular among public clients. Persistent prejudices prevail. Design contests are expensive, consume a lot of time and their outcome is uncertain (Spreiregen 1979). The few Dutch public...

Sweden is entering the ageing society. On a national level, and in a cyclic process with a time lap of 30 to 40 years, three architecture competitions have been realized during the 20th century in order to renew spatial thinking concerning housing for dependent and frail persons in need of daily care and caring, in the following termed...

From first-principle fluid dynamics, complemented by a rigorous state equation accounting for critical anomalies, we discovered that expansion shock waves may occur in the vicinity of the liquid-vapor critical point in the two-phase region. Due to universality of near-critical thermodynamics, the result is valid for any common pure fluid in...

Innovation is considered to be the major force in economic growth. However, the processes are extremely complex and characterized with high level of uncertainty. How can we increase our understanding about innovation process? The core of modern thinking about innovation process is to understand what factors shaping and influencing innovation....

This paper presents an analysis of the preparation of the idea competition 'Building for Bouwkunde' that was held in 2008. The competition intended entrants to design a replacement building for the lost building of the Faculty of Architecture of the Delft University of Technology, based on the reflection on two themes: 'new concepts’ and ...

Despite being one of the most important means to obtain commissions, explore in design terms and develop design quality, architectural competitions are an extremely controversial practice. Nevertheless, they are increasingly adopted within the European procurement law, to the point that exploring and understanding their debated issues is...

How do expert evaluations and expertise impact the outcome of the architectural competitions? What do they bring to the judgment process? This study of experts and expertise in the judgment process originated from our previous study that showed that environmental management tools are shifting the definition of quality in the architectural...

The study explores how creation of iconic architecture can be intentionally facilitated using the toolbox inherent in the competition system. The study defines iconicity as a status a building may gain through intentional process of iconification with participation of the client providing prerequisites, the architect shaping iconic features, the...

Stockholms first land airport opened 1936 in Bromma, to day a suburb 7 km west of Stockholm City Center. The final organization and design of the airport buildings was the result of an invited architectural competition. The airport is still operating and in 2012 it was Sweden's fourth airport in number of passengers. The air station building of...

Are there recognizable patterns in the way competitions serve the development of architecture practices? How can competitions be effectively used by architects? The paper is based on a survey developed by the Wonderland platform for European architecture in collaboration with the Vienna based practice SHARE architects. 116 stories about ‘the...

This paper investigates how the format of architectural competitions influences the degree of innovation achievable. Innovation can be defined as a new combination of means and aims. The applicability of the notions concerning innovation developed the management and social disciplines to architecture has received little attention– especially for...

The computational modelling of fluid-structure interaction phenomena is currently gaining importance thanks to engineering design trends towards lighter and more exible structures. FSI simulations are important because they can predict potentially dangerous interaction instabilities and the performance of designs in their deformed shapes....

The summary of the problem: Boarding school compounds in Kenya have organic resources, subdivided in humanure, kitchen leftovers and manure. Focus is on the humanure (faeces and the urine), which turns out to be the biggest resource stream. In current waste disposal systems energy potential and soil nutrients are spoiled. An example is a...

Land-use change in the mountainous parts of northern Thailand is reflected by an increased application of agrochemicals, which may be lost to surface and groundwater. The close relation between flow paths and contaminant transport within hydrological systems requires recognizing and understanding the dominant hydrological processes. To date, the...
