Bedir, M. (author)
Attitudes about refugees begin with the words we ascribe them. In Turkey – which has historically absorbed newcomers from a variety of outside conflicts – the term ‘guest’ is commonly used. Taking this as a starting point, Merve Bedir questions the laws of hospitality in Turkey, and the inherent hostility embedded in the word. She argues for a...

Bedir, M. (author)
As the borders of Europe slowly expand to include Turkey, the country finds itself in the position of having to strengthen its own walls. With the continuing conflict in Syria, this issue has become urgent. Merve Bedir traces the last 100 years of migration in Turkey, and how it has dealt with varying flows of refugees and immigrants. Away from...

The use of crystallization modifiers for the prevention or mitigation of salt crystallization damage has recently received a lot of research interest in the field of building conservation. However, the use of crystallization modifiers mixed in a lime-based mortar, is still a very new field of research. This paper summarizes the literature study...

This paper discusses the aesthetical aspects of ageing and focusses on the use of the terms ‘patina’ and ‘damage’ to decide on the cleaning of historical facades and the application of artificial ageing. Conservation campaigns can be characterized by the wish to preserve an object, building or building complex as a coherent piece of Cultural...

Salt crystallization is a major cause of damage in porous building materials. Notwithstanding the extensive research in this field, the complexity of the problem has hindered the use of mathematical models for forecasting ageing and damage due to salt crystallization. Nowadays, the durability of materials with respect to salt crystallization is...

This paper deals with the use of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP's) in architectural and structural bridge design. The challenges and opportunities that come with this relatively new material are discussed. An inventory is made of recent engineers' solutions in FRP, followed by a discussion on architectural application of FRP's derived from the...

Data-driven architectural production and operation as explored within Hyperbody rely heavily on system thinking implying that all parts of a system are to be understood in relation to each other. These relations are increasingly established bi-directionally so that data-driven architecture is not only produced (created or designed and fabricated...

Most evolutionary computation (EC) applications in design fields either assume simplified, static, performance-oriented procedures for design or focus on well-defined sub-problems, to be able to impose problem-solving and optimization schemes on design tasks, which render known EC techniques directly applicable. However, in most design...

Bij grote restauraties aan gebouwen zijn tegenwoordig niet alleen architecten, historici en aannemers betrokken, maar ook specialistische adviseurs, waaronder geologen. In Nederland begon de betrokkenheid van aardwetenschappers bij de Delftse mijningenieur Abraham Louis Willem Eduard van der Veen, die in 1920 onderzoek ging doen voor de twee...

Smidt, D.M. (author)
This research is twofold. Firstly it treats the complexity of design using a computational intelligent method to achieve, with regard to a limited set of goals, high performing designs. Secondly, an architectural and structural challenge to conceptually design a freeform roof framework, which integrates structural rigidity and non-standard...

Architectural project for urban agriculture was developed in New York City, on East River waterfront in Manhattan. Analysis of the case study site was done by using advanced simulation techniques. Various bottom up computational methods allowed building organization and shape to be optimized in such a way as to more efficiently use natural...

This paper proposes an efficient and reliable topology optimization method that can obtain a black and white solution with a low objective function value within a few tens of iterations. First of all, a transformation of variables technique is adopted to eliminate the constraints on the design variables. After that, the optimization problem is...

Given the very low renewal rate of the building stock, the efforts to reduce energy demand must focus on the existing residential buildings. Even though awareness has been raised, the effect on energy efficiency is often neglected during the design phase of refurbishment projects. This paper discusses an integrated approach to energy-efficiency...

Bij grote restauratiecampagnes zijn tegenwoordig niet alleen architecten, historici en (onder aannemers betrokken, maar ook specialistische adviseurs, zoals bij de keuze van vervangende steensoorten. Dit zijn vaak adviseurs met bijvoorbeeld een geologische, chemische of materiaalkundige achtergrond. Dit is niet altijd het geval geweest. Ondanks...

The structural efficiency of arches, subjected to several variable loads, can be increased by strengthening these arches with cables. For these structures it can be necessary, especially in case the permanent load is small, to post-tension the cables to avoid any compression acting on the cables. A method to analyse the load transfer is...

In the last decade, studies on indoor air pollution suggest a link between exposure to indoor particulate matter and compounds, in particular ultrafine particles and secondary organic aerosols, and several health effects. The mechanisms of how those complex mixtures relate to health effects are still not fully understood. In vitro testing, i.e.,...
