Kácha, Ondřej (author), de Vries, G. (author)Public and private organisations have several instruments at hand to reduce consumer demand for energy. These instruments can take the form of information campaigns, various subsidy programs, or regulations to encourage consumers to adopt greener technology, develop energy-efficient habits or travel more sustainably. However, the well-intended...abstract 2023

Nawaz, M.F. (author), Goncalves, J. E. (author), Verma, T. (author), Hoppe, T. (author), Doorn, N. (author)Driven by climate change and energy crises, an increasing number of households in the European Union are becoming vulnerable to energy poverty. However, current renovation programs fall short in effectively targeting and addressing the needs of vulnerable groups, particularly in underprivileged neighborhoods where low effectiveness rates and...abstract 2023

Feenstra, M.H. (author), Creusen, A. (author)Citizens’ participation in the energy transition seems mostly available for households with disposable incomes to invest in energy efficiency, renewable energy sources and retrofitting. Those who cannot afford the upfront costs might not benefit from the policy interventions, like tax benefits and subsidies. The energy crisis made energy poverty...abstract 2023

Stefanie Horian, S.H. (author), Qian, QK (author), Hoekstra, J.S.C.M. (author), Visscher, H.J. (author)Energy efficiency renovation (EER) of the existing residential housing stock is crucial to achieving further decarbonization to be climate neutral by 2050. This transition is particularly challenging for affordable rental housing providers as they have to make intensive investment decisions while balancing rental affordability for their low- and...abstract 2023

Beuster, L.R.N. (author), Garcia Sanchez, C. (author), Ledoux, H. (author)Understanding the UHI effect in any city requires high-resolution temperature data. This data is often difficult to obtain as cities usually have only a few ground sensors, leaving large data gaps. To fill these gaps, we compare Landsat-derived land surface temperature (LST) with air temperature (Tair) measurements from urban weather stations in...abstract 2023

Köken, B. (author)In 1965, the Chamber of Architects of Turkey contacted the Union Internationale des Architectes (UIA), asking for technical assistance for the country’s ongoing housing problem. Upon that request, a group of experts from UIA’s French Section visited Turkey and discussed the situation of squatter housing called gecekondu. During the visit, they...abstract 2023

Süsser, Diana (author), McGookin, Connor (author), McDowall, Will (author), Lombardi, F. (author), Braunreiter, Lukas (author), Bouzarovski, Stefan (author)A notable inclusion in the most recent mitigation assessment from the IPCC was the need for a broader societal transformation to achieve the Paris Agreement temperature goals in a fair and equitable manner. Energy system models are becoming increasingly important in politics when it comes to informing the energy transition towards climate...abstract 2023

Velea, A. (author), Serdijn, W.A. (author), Giagka, Vasiliki (author)In an attempt to reduce the side effects caused by the chemically-based drugs used to treat neurological disorders, the field of bioelectronics has been focusing on the development of smart and reliable solutions that could, ideally, interact with the tissue at a resolution of individual cells.1 Conventionally, electrically-based systems have...abstract 2022

Kolovou Kouri, K. (author), Serdijn, W.A. (author), Giagka, Vasiliki (author)During the last few decades, electrical neural stimulators have successfully been employed as a means of treatment for a wide range of neurological disorders. By targeting the peripheral and central nervous systems, electrical neurostimulators activate/inhibit neural activity by manipulating the stimulus- induced electric field arising at the...abstract 2022

Medici, P. (author), Cavallo, R. (author)This research focuses on the architecture of degrowth with regard to the Circular Economy (CE) in the built environment and the role of the architect. Today, to achieve a sound CE, the challenge related to the global decoupling of economic growth from environmental degradation has to be addressed. The impossibility of pursuing economic growth in...abstract 2022

Aviation climate impact is expected to increase rapidly due to the growth of air transport sector in most regions of the world and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are expected to only have a...abstract 2022

Kaandorp, C. (author), van de Giesen, N.C. (author), Abraham, E. (author)Transitioning towards renewable heating is important to minimise the use of fossil fuels and abate carbon emissions, because heating accounts for 50% of the final energy consumption and 40% of carbon dioxide emissions globally. In the city of Amsterdam, the Netherlands, the aim is to transition towards renewable heating by 2040 and achieve...abstract 2022

(author)The resilient growth of air travel demands a comprehensive understanding of the climate effects from aviation emissions. The current level of knowledge of the environmental repercussions of CO2 emissions is considerably higher than that of non-CO2 emissions, which includes nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur oxides (SOx), other aerosols like black...abstract 2022

Campos Uribe, A. (author)The imaginary encounter above recalls how Aldo van Eyck (1919-1999) explained his de- sign for the Sonsbeek Pavilion (1965-66), which possessed something of the closeness, density and intricacy of things urban, in the sense that people and things met, converged and clashed there. The idea was synthesised in a famous drawing, where Van Eyck care-...abstract 2022
