In Kigali, Rwanda, urbanization and increased affluence will increase the amount of waste. Currently, there is no sustainable disposal of the waste, as unsorted waste is deposited in an unsanitary landfill, which is beginning to fill up. The Rwandan government aims to create a circular economy and tries to address waste management, but few...

This research proposes a new algorithm for mapping Normal Distribution Functions to Heightfields in order to answer its research question: ”Given an NDF, how can we generate a corresponding Heightfield using simple optimization algorithms?”. This research is important, as it helps us to gain a better understanding of how limited statistics-based...

Creating photorealistic images is one of the ultimate goals of computer graphics. Previous work has shown that a material's microstructure plays a crucial role when trying to achieve photorealism. This is because a material's appearance depends on the roughness of its microstructure. Due to this dependence, effects such as masking and shadowing...

Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Functions, BRDFs, describe the reflectance of light on a ma-terial, and are widely used in computer graphics to render materials. Acquiring a full measured BRDF can be costly and time consuming, so this research aims to answer the question ”How can we approx-imate a full BRDF from a single slice (in-plane...

The economic and environmental advantages of extrusion-based 3D concrete printing have made it a frontrunner in large-scale buildings. Nonetheless, this approach suffers from a contradictory rheological requirement and a high percentage of Portland cement (PC) in its mixture, which challenges its sustainability. It is claimed that the addition...

The micro detail on surfaces can have a profound effect on how rays bounce of it. In ray tracing, this micro-surface is normally approximated with statistical models. We wish to figure out what the effect of normal interpolation and Phong tessellation is on how rays reflect on the surface. This has been Done by creating a ray tracers from...

The first part of this thesis investigated different pre-treatment methods of the fine glass dust in order to increase the reactivity when it was used as a cement replacement in cementitious mixtures. The results showed that the optimal pre-treatment for the fine glass dust was a heat-treatment at 600∘C for 1 hour combined with a grinding...

The use of citizen participation in urban regeneration projects in Western European cities is increasing. Particularly in Amsterdam, participation with regards to regeneration projects is stimulated by the city government. Although the literature shows that not all such participatory processes are of value to citizens, there is a lack of...

Since China's open door policy and with its rapid urbanisation process, modern China has been known as the “testing ground” for foreign architects, including Dutch architecture firms. The architecture practices that firms did in China have enriched their company portfolio as well as increased their international reputation. For years, being a...

In recent years, Barcelona has been a pioneer in the implementation of PRO-Housing Right policies. Unfortunately, these measures can be considered too radical and not necessarily efficient in a long-term scenario. Private landlords are at the center of this challenge, being that they are the stakeholder that might potentially be the solution and...

Urbanization, modernization, and the growth of the population put severe pressure on the current Dutch building stock. Inner-city developments in Dutch cities are limiteddue to the high density of the urban fabric. Therefore, the focus of urban transformation gradually moved from the inner-city developments to the periphery of the city. These...

While data sharing is crucial for knowledge development, privacy concerns and strict regulation (e.g., European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)) unfortunately limit its full effectiveness. Synthetic tabular data emerges as an alternative to enable data sharing while fulfilling regulatory and privacy constraints. The state-of-the-art...

Orthodox economic models often linked the size of cities to their economies. However, this changed through the last quarter of the 20th century; cities grew bigger, side by side to unemployment, inflation and falling wages and productivity (Davis, 2006). In Egypt, urban migration was considered the root of the city’s density. In the seventies,...
