Wan, Z. (author), Xu, Y. (author), Chang, Z. (author), Liang, M. (author), Šavija, B. (author)Vascular self-healing concrete (SHC) has great potential to mitigate the environmental impact of the construction industry by increasing the durability of structures. Designing concrete with high initial mechanical properties by searching a specific arrangement of vascular structure is of great importance. Herein, an automatic optimization...journal article 2024

Scheele, Bram (author)In this thesis, research is performed into parametric design of balanced cantilever bridges within the total road design. The main research question is: What can be achieved by using a parametric model in the preliminary design phase, with the possibility to optimize and compare concrete bridges on material usage, costs and environmental impact?...master thesis 2019

Smits, J.E.P. (author), Eigenraam, P. (author), Gkaidatzis, R. (author), Visser, Dirk Rinze (author), Wong, Kailin (author), Wassermann-Fry, Stephan (author)This paper investigates the symbiotic relationship between the architectural appearance of a bridge and the structural design. The research is done by reviewing and comparing the design methodology employed by the first author in the conceptualization of two of his bridges; an early work from 1997 and a recent work from 2017. The review of the...journal article 2018

Fransen, Edward (author)This thesis concerns research into the parametric modelling and optimization of steel-concrete bridge typologies typically found in the Netherlands, in order to further the automation of preliminary bridge designs. The research question posed is: "How can a parametric bridge design model be composed to fit into the <br/>overall road design...master thesis 2018
