Draganov, D.S. (author), Ghose, R. (author), Heller, H.K.J. (author)Purpose: Time-lapse seismic monitoring constitutes the foundation for most monitoring programmes involving CO2 storage. When using time-lapse seismics, two major sources of uncertainty in the estimation of changes in the reservoir properties, like saturation and pressure, are the non-repeatability of the source positions and the difficulty to...abstract 2016

Heruc, S. (author)Historic monuments are more than just old buildings or architectural importance. They are a symbol of our cultural indentity and in continuity a part of our heritage, and as such it is generally accepted that they should be maintained for so long as possible and without materially altering the fabric of special architectural features. Therefore...book 1997

Lepot, M.J. (author), Kapelan, Z. (author), Clemens, F.H.L.R. (author)The knowledge of water levels and discharges in urban drainage and stormwater management (UDSM) systems is of key importance to understand their functioning and processes, to evaluate their performance, and to provide data for modelling. In this chapter, devoted mainly to underground combined and separate sewer pipe systems, various methods and...book chapter 2021

van IJsseldijk, J.E. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author)4D seismic studies aim to observe time-lapse changes in the subsurface between a baseline and a monitor study. These changes are generally small, and the seismic response from a deep reservoir can be concealed by reflections from shallow structures. Here, we introduce a novel way of isolating the reservoir response by means of the Marchenko...book chapter 2021

Bertrand-Krajewski, Jean-Luc (author), Clemens, F.H.L.R. (author), Lepot, M.J. (author)This introductory chapter indicates why well-defined, high-standard, and reliable monitoring is a key aspect in the necessary evolution of urban drainage and stormwater management and why it should become routine practice. It provides a framework, guidelines, and recommendations to define monitoring objectives and means. It also presents the...book chapter 2021

Majcen, D. (author), Itard, L.C.M. (author), Visscher, H.J. (author)In 2002 EU adopted the Energy Performance of Buildings directive which was subsequently adopted by the member states. However, more than a decade later, no national registers of certificates have become available publicly or to research institutions in order to give feedback on the introduced regulation. By exploring the 4 million certificates...conference paper 2014

Gard, W.F. (author), Van de Kuilen, J.W.G. (author), Cabrera de Diego, M. (author)Hydraulic timber structures such as mooring poles, fenders, lock gates and jetties are widely-used in inner and sea harbours all over the world. In general these structures give satisfactory performance with regard to the technical requirements. Because of the harsh exposure conditions such as brackish and contaminated water, drying-out,...conference paper 2014

Schaller, A.M. (author), Hunziker, J.W. (author), Streich, R. (author), Drijkoningen, G.G. (author)We investigate potential benefits of measuring the vertical electric field component in addition to the routinely measured horizontal electric field components in onshore time-lapse controlled-source electromagnetics. Synthetic electromagnetic data based on a model of the Schoonebeek onshore oil field are used. We confirm that the vertical...conference paper 2014

Cuerda, E. (author), Guerra Santin, O. (author), Neila Gonzalez, F.J. (author), Romero Herrera, N.A. (author)Recent research has shown large differences between the expected and the actual energy consumption in buildings. The differences have been attributed partially, to the assumptions made during the design phase of buildings when simulation methods are employed. More accurate occupancy profiles on building operation could help to carry out more...conference paper 2015

Van Oort, N. (author), Sparing, D. (author), Brands, T. (author), Goverde, R.M.P. (author)There is a growing pressure on urban public transport companies and authorities to improve efficiency, stemming from reduced budgets, political expectations and competition between operators. In order to find inefficiencies, bottlenecks and potentials in the public transport service, it is useful to learn from recorded operational data. We first...conference paper 2012

Boufidou, E. (author), Commandeur, T.J.F. (author), Nedkov, S.B. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author)Modern large cities are characterized by a high building concentration, little aeration and lack of green spaces. Such characteristics create an urban climate which is different from the climate outside of cities. An example of an urban climate effect is the so-called Urban Heat Island: cities tend to be warmer than the surrounding rural areas....conference paper 2011

Combined sewer overflows in urban areas - interpreting and comparing European CSO monitoring resultsAarts, A.L.F. (author), Langeveld, J.G. (author), Ten Veldhuis, J.A.E. (author), Rietveld, L.C. (author)Since the initiation of environmental legislation, monitoring campaigns have been done to estimate the characteristic pollutant concentrations of combined sewer overflow water. Such local campaigns are expensive due to the large number of events which should ideally be followed. This study focused on whether available concentration ranges from...conference paper 2013

Kecman, P. (author), Goverde, R.M.P. (author)Prediction of train positions in time and space is required for traffic control and passenger information. However, in practice only the last measured train delays are known and dispatchers must predict the arrival times of trains without adequate computer support. This paper presents a real-time tool for continuous online prediction of train...conference paper 2013
