Jansen, B. (author), Duijghuisen, J.A.K. (author), van Bortel, G.A. (author), Gruis, V.H. (author)The built environment can become more sustainable by gradually replacing building components with circular ones. Kitchens are a logical component to be made circular, given their relatively short lifespan, product-based nature, and affordable prototypes. Since various designs for circular kitchens can be developed, understanding the feasibility...journal article 2023

van Stijn, A. (author), Wouterszoon Jansen, B. (author), Gruis, V.H. (author), van Bortel, G.A. (author)Implementing circular building components can contribute to the transition to a circular economy. There are many possible circular design options for building components. Knowledge on which options are feasible to implement remains limited. Existing feasibility studies do not compare multiple circular design options, building components and...journal article 2023

Dokter, Giliam (author), Boks, Casper (author), Rahe, Ulrike (author), Jansen, B. (author), Hagejärd, Sofie (author), Thuvander, Liane (author)To bridge the gap between the conceptualisation and implementation of circular value propositions, recent research efforts have focused on linking design-driven approaches with circular-oriented innovation. Such approaches can facilitate iterative processes that emphasise co-creation, prototyping, and real-life experimentation, ultimately...journal article 2023

Jansen, B. (author)The use of spreadsheets in industry is widespread. Their outcomes are often used to substantiate critical business decisions. Unfortunately, spreadsheets are also error-prone. Consequently, companies risk making decisions based on inaccurate information, which eventually could lead to loss of money and reputation.<br/>This dissertation...doctoral thesis 2022

Jansen, B. (author), van Stijn, A. (author), Gruis, V.H. (author), van Bortel, G.A. (author)The built environment can be made more circular by gradually replacing building components with more circular components during construction, renovation, or maintenance. However, many different design options can be seen as circular. Although there is a growing number of studies about circular design options, research on what makes these options...journal article 2022

Dokter, G. (author), Jansen, B. (author), Thuvander, L. (author), Rahe, U. (author), Duijghuisen, J.A.K. (author)The transition to a Circular Economy (CE) requires designers to, more than ever, concurrently develop a circular design, supply chain and business model, and anticipate how products and buildings function over time. To address these challenges, recent studies identified specific knowledge and competencies for designers. However, it remains...journal article 2022

van Stijn, A. (author), Eberhardt, L. C.M. (author), Jansen, B. (author), Meijer, A. (author)The transition towards a Circular Economy (CE) in the built environment is vital to reduce environmental impacts, resource consumption and waste generation. The built environment can be made circular by replacing building components with more circular ones. There are many circular design options for building components and knowledge about...journal article 2022

Jansen, B. (author), van Stijn, A. (author), Eberhardt, Leonora Charlotte Malabi (author), van Bortel, G.A. (author), Gruis, V.H. (author)The construction sector can become more sustainable by applying the Circular Economy concept, which distinguishes two main pathways: substituting materials for biological materials, or optimizing the use or reuse of technical materials. Practitioners sometimes choose one pathway over the other, but knowledge of which of these pathways yields...journal article 2022

Jansen, B. (author), Hermans, Felienne (author)The use of spreadsheets in industry is widespread. It is known that spreadsheets have an average life span of five years, and during this life span, they are used on average by thirteen different persons. Consequently, spreadsheets need maintenance, and knowledge about the spreadsheet needs to be transferred from one user to another. To minimize...conference paper 2021

van Stijn, A. (author), Malabi Eberhardt, L. C. (author), Wouterszoon Jansen, B. (author), Meijer, A. (author)The transition towards a Circular Economy (CE) in the built environment is vital to reduce resource consumption, emissions and waste generation. To support the development of circular building components, assessment metrics are needed. Previous work identified Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) as an important method to analyse the environmental...journal article 2021

van Stijn, A. (author), Eberhardt, L. C.M. (author), Wouterszoon Jansen, B. (author), Meijer, A. (author)Introduction. The building sector consumes 40% of resources globally, produces 40% of global waste and 33% of all emissions. The transition towards a Circular Economy (CE) in the built environment is vital to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) such as responsible consumption and production. The built environment can gradually be...journal article 2020

Jansen, B. (author), van Stijn, A. (author), Gruis, V.H. (author), van Bortel, G.A. (author)The building industry is responsible for the highest resource use, amount of waste and emissions of all industries. The principles of the Circular Economy (CE) could offer an approach to create a more sustainable built environment. For a transition towards a circular built environment, a comprehensive assessment method is needed to support...journal article 2020

Jansen, B. (author), Hermans, F.F.J. (author)Spreadsheets are frequently used in industry to support critical business decisions. Unfortunately, they also suffer from error-proneness, which sometimes results in costly consequences. Experiments in the field of program education have shown that programmers tend to make fewer errors and can better focus on the logic of a program if they use a...conference paper 2019

Jansen, B. (author), Hermans, F.F.J. (author)The use of spreadsheets in industry is widespread. Companies base decisions on information coming from spreadsheets. Unfortunately, spreadsheets are error-prone and this increases the risk that companies base their decisions on inaccurate information, which can lead to incorrect decisions and loss of money. In general, spreadsheet research is...conference paper 2018

Jansen, B. (author), Hermans, F.F.J. (author), Tazelaar, Edwin (author)The use of spreadsheets in industry is widespread and the information that they provide is often used for decisions. Research has shown that spreadsheets are error-prone, leading to the risk that decisions are made on incorrect information. Software Evolution is a well-researched topic and the results have proven to support developers in...conference paper 2018

Jansen, B. (author)Spreadsheets are a successful example of an end-user programming language, and the spreadsheet paradigm shares several characteristics like composition, selection, and repetition with programming languages. There are compelling reasons that spreadsheets are code. For most programming languages, developers are supported by powerful IDEs. However,...conference paper 2016

Hermans, F. (author), Aivaloglou, E. (author), Jansen, B. (author)Spreadsheets are used heavily in many business domains around the world. They are easy to use and as such enable end-user programmers to and build and maintain all sorts of reports and analyses. In addition to using spreadsheets for modeling and calculation, spreadsheets are often also used for creating reports and dashboards: combining data...report 2015

Jansen, B. (author)Spreadsheets are widely used within companies and often form the basis for business decisions. Numerous cases are known where incorrect information in spreadsheets lead to incorrect decisions. Such cases underline the relevance of research on the professional use of spreadsheets.

Jansen, B. (author), Hermans, F.F.J. (author)It is known that spreadsheets are error-prone. It is very diffcult for users to get an overview of the design of the spreadsheet, and this is causing errors. Furthermore users are not always aware of the best way to structure a spread- sheet and just start modeling. To address this we will build a visual language to develop spreadsheet models...journal article 2014
