Theodoropoulou, P. (author), Brembilla, E. (author), Schipper, H.R. (author), Louter, P.C. (author)Smart buildings are equipped with automated control systems that provide a comfortable indoor environment, aiming simultaneously at energy savings. Control systems for shading devices applied in practice are mostly driven by a rule-based approach, that is usually tested under simplified conditions and hence its effectiveness in complex real-life...journal article 2024

Prosperi, A. (author), Korswagen, Paul A. (author), Korff, M. (author), Schipper, H.R. (author), Rots, J.G. (author)In the Netherlands, the potential damage to the building stock due to subsidence phenomena has recently received increased awareness. However, evaluating and predicting damage to buildings in subsiding areas is a complex task that requires associating the vulnerability of exposed structures with the intensity of the subsidence hazard....journal article 2023

Schipper, H.R. (author), Brembilla, E. (author)Wat te doen als je prachtige gekromde glazen gevel onverwacht als vergrootglas blijkt te werken? Het fenomeen, dat al enigszins bekend was van de beruchte “Walkie Talkie” in Londen, is al eens eerder beschreven in Bouwfysica in 2018 [1]. Helaas kon dat artikel niet voorkomen dat ook in Nederland dit probleem vorig najaar plotseling optrad bij...journal article 2023

Ghering, Victor (author), van den Brom, P.I. (author), Itard, L.C.M. (author), Schipper, H.R. (author)Low Temperature Heating (LTH) of buildings is a key feature when switching to renewable energy. Even when the capacity of LTH is high enough, LTH may adversely affect indoor thermal comfort in case buildings are not suitably insulated. This paper goes deeper into methodological issues when conducting a thermal comfort assessment. Thermal comfort...conference paper 2022

(author), Roussel, Nicolas (author)The need for methods for forming concrete has existed for as long as concrete has been used in constructing the built environment. Creating flat, rectilinear formers have traditionally been the cost and time efficient default for the majority of applications. The desire for greater design freedom and the drive to automate construction...book chapter 2022

(author), Roussel, N. (author)Digital Fabrication with Concrete (DFC) encompasses 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) and many other methods of production. DFC is emerging from an era of invention and demonstration to one where the merits of one principle over another needs to be quantified systematically. DFC technologies vary in characteristics, complexity and maturity which...journal article 2020

Grunewald, S. (author), Schipper, H.R. (author)The transition period between the mixing of concrete and the begin of setting increasingly receives attention, as special production processes can be developed with tailor-made fresh state characteristics. In this publication the two processes of 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) and the production with the Flexible Mould Process (FMP) are...conference paper 2020

Sánchez-Aparicio, Luis Javier (author), Herrero Huerta, M. (author), Esposito, R. (author), Schipper, H.R. (author), González-Aguilera, Diego (author)This paper proposes a photogrammetric procedure able to determine out-of-plane movements experienced by a masonry structure subjected to a quasi-static cyclic test. The method tracks the movement of circular targets by means of a coarse-to-fine strategy. These targets were captured by means of a photogrammetric network, made up of four...journal article 2019

(author)The exploitation of geo-resources in the northern part of the Netherlands (Groningen region) is triggering shallow earthquakes, rising the need of assessing the current building stock. Being the region not prone to tectonic earthquakes, buildings are designed as wind-resistant systems and have specific characteristics that can limit their...journal article 2019

3D Printing Concrete on temporary surfaces: The design and fabrication of a concrete shell structureBorg Costanzi, C. (author), Ahmed, Z. Y. (author), Schipper, H.R. (author), Bos, F. (author), Knaack, U. (author), Wolfs, R.J.H. (author)One of the geometrical restrictions associated with printed paste materials such as concrete, is that material must be self-supporting during printing. In this research paper a new methodology for 3D Printing Concrete onto a temporary freeform surface is presented. This is achieved by setting up a workflow for combining a Flexible Mould...journal article 2018
