Tammaru, T. (author), Sinitsyna, Anastasia (author), Akhavizadegan, Alireza (author), van Ham, M. (author), Marcińczak, Szymon (author), Musterd, Sako (author)Based on extensive research with distinguished scholars within the book project ‘Socioeconomic Segregation in European Capital Cities’, this chapter summarizes the key trends in income inequality and socioeconomic segregation in Europe. We draw our data from the two last census rounds, and we focus on the most common indicators of income...book chapter 2021

Mashhoodi, B. (author), van Timmeren, A. (author)Describing the location of an airport within a region, the vocabulary of urban studies is often dominated by ill-defined terms such as urban fringe, centre, suburb, corridors, etc. The dataset presented by this manuscript aims to provide a basis to describe and compare the location of 76 major European airports within their respective urban...journal article 2020

Nadin, V. (author), Stead, D. (author), Dabrowski, M.M. (author), Fernandez Maldonado, A.M. (author)Whether spatial planning systems are equipped to cope with contemporary regional and urban challenges is strongly dependent on their capacity to promote integration between policy sectors, to respond adaptively to changing societal and political conditions, and to involve and engage citizens in decision-making processes. This paper examines...journal article 2020

van Goeverden, C.D. (author), van Nes, R. (author), van Arem, B. (author)Long-distance person transport contributes significantly to the GHG-emissions of all person transport. The EU aims for reducing the emissions by inducing a significant modal shift to the train, raising its market share to at least 50% on medium distances in 2050. This implies that the current share has to be multiplied by four. The paper...conference paper 2019

Vergara d'Alençon, L.M. (author), Robertson, Cristián (author)We are facing a paradigm shift in the production of housing, and it is precisely in this transition where contexts as different as The Netherlands and Chile find a common denominator: the problem of affordability and general discontent in the face of a supply that is increasingly remote from the economic capacity and needs of people. Access...book chapter 2019

Czischke, D.K. (author)Against the backdrop of the current housing crisis, Europe has seen the (re)emergence of collectively self-organised housing projects. Collaborative housing stands as an umbrella term for the wide range of these housing forms, where groups of residents collectively design, develop and inhabit housing. This chapter provides a brief...book chapter 2019

Ho, Serene (author), Crompvoets, Joep (author), Stoter, J.E. (author)Intensifying and increasingly complex physical developments under, on, and above ground, as well as the speed and accessibility of digital innovation, is resulting in growing interest in public sector investment in 3D geo-information. In Europe, a consortium of 11 public mapping agencies (PMAs) recently undertook a cost-benefit analysis for...journal article 2018

Huang, Ping Ping (author), Wu, Patrick (author), van der Wal, W. (author)It has been argued that viscous dissipation from mantle flow in response to surface loading during glacial cycles can result in short-term heating and thus trigger transient volcanism or changes in mantle properties, which may in turn affect mantle dynamics. Furthermore, heating near the Earth's surface can also affect the stability of ice...journal article 2018

Crompvoets, Joep (author), Vancauwenberghe, G. (author), Ho, Serene (author), Masser, Ian (author), de Vries, Walter Timo (author)The effective development and implementation of spatial data infrastructures (SDIs) requires governance in order to avoid gaps, duplications, contradictions and missed opportunities in the implementation of different SDI components. Appropriate governance instruments should be established to coordinate the activities and contributions of...journal article 2018

Prins, Peter J. (author), Wahls, S. (author)Non-linear Fourier Transforms (NFTs) enable the analysis of signals governed by certain non-linear evolution equations in a way that is analogous to how the conventional Fourier transform is used to analyse linear wave equations. Recently, fast numerical algorithms have been derived for the numerical computation of certain NFTs. In this paper,...conference paper 2018

van den Brand, Tessa (author), Snip, Laura (author), Palmen, Luc (author), Weij, Paul (author), Sipma, Jan (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author)The application of sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) to treat municipal wastewater is seldom considered. For instance, due to low sludge yield it can reduce the amount of excess sludge produced significantly. Several studies, mainly at laboratory-scale, revealed that SRB can proliferate in artificial wastewater systems at temperatures of 20°C...journal article 2018

Steinmann, Patrick (author), Wigman, S.B.J. (author)Between 2013 and 2015, over one million migrants entered Europe. Many European countries were unprepared for and overwhelmed by the rapidly unfolding, chaotic situation. To better handle future migration waves, and allow quicker exploration of government policy effects and interactions, a geospatial-based system dynamics model of migration flows...conference paper 2018

Liu, Zhihao (author), Shekhar, A. (author), Ramirez Elizondo, L.M. (author), Bauer, P. (author)Localization of series arc faults in dc microgrids is an important requirement to guarantee operational safety and uninterrupted power to end users. In the previous EPE-ECCE proceeding, a theoretical proof was provided for the selective series arc detection using a novel algorithm. In the current paper, the concept is validated by showcasing...conference paper 2017

Root, B.C. (author), Ebbing, J (author), van der Wal, W. (author), England, R.W. (author), Vermeersen, L.L.A. (author)Lithospheric density structure can be constructed from seismic tomography, gravity modelling, or using both data sets. The different approaches have their own uncertainties and limitations. This study aims to characterize and quantify some of the uncertainties in gravity modelling of lithosphere densities. To evaluate the gravity modelling we...journal article 2017

Stead, D. (author)Different policy approaches and responses to common environmental challenges, such as climate change, exist between countries, and sometimes even within countries. This situation arises because public policy-makers are not only driven by concerns of theoretical purity but are also influenced by a range of social, political, economic, cultural...journal article 2017

Meijers, E.J. (author), Hoogerbrugge, M.M. (author), Viseu Cardoso, Rodrigo (author)A quarter of the European population lives in 'polycentric urban regions' (PURs): clusters of historically and administratively distinct but proximate and well-connected cities of relatively similar size. This paper explores whether tighter integration can increase agglomeration benefits at the PUR-level. We provide the first comprehensive...journal article 2017

Rugini, L (author), Banelli, Paolo (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author)We focus on the performance of the energy detector for cognitive radio applications. Our aim is to incorporate, into the energy detector, low-complexity algorithms that compute the performance of the detector itself. The main parameters of interest are the probability of detection and the required number of samples. Since the exact performance...conference paper 2016

van Ham, M. (author), Tammaru, T. (author), de Vuijst, E. (author), Zwiers, M.D. (author)Income inequality is increasing in European cities and this rising inequality has a spatial footprint in cities and neighbourhoods. Poor and rich people are increasingly living separated and this can threaten the social sustainability of cities. Low income people, often with an ethnic minority background, can get cut off from important social...working paper 2016
