Bioreceptive Habitats: Engineering a bioreceptivity-oriented design strategy through digital and physical experimentation.

Bioreceptivity is a natural phenomenon that has been observed on building material for many years. Bioreceptivity is when materials are being colonized by one or more species of living organisms without necessarily going under biodeterioration. (Guillitte, 1995) Based on the literature, bioreceptivity depends on three main factors: on climatic...

Data-driven Fixed-Structure Controller Design for Linear Parameter-Varying Systems: A Frequency-Domain Approach

With data-driven control it is possible to design a controller for systems with non-parametric models. The intermediate step of modelling or identification of the system is not necessary, because a non-parametric model of the system can be obtained by means of experimental data. In the linear time-invariant (LTI) framework, these non-parametric...

Data-Driven Project Management (DDPM) in the Construction Industry: An Exploratory Study

With the increasing amounts of data generated from various sources, companies are now aware of the data-driven applications more than ever. In the built environment, building or infrastructural projects are handed over as end-product and these projects are complex. Thus, this data disturbance requires multiple ways of project management...
