De Haan, J. (author)

Statistics Netherlands is planning to use scanner data on a large scale for the compilation of the CPI, covering supermarkets, department stores, do-it-yourself stores, etc. Ideally, to make the production process as efficient as possible, a limited number of fully or semi-automated methods would be used. The purpose of this paper is to propose...

Representing nature: Late twentieth century green infrastructures in Paris

Van der Velde, J.R.T. (author), De Wit, S.I. (author)

The appreciation of green infrastructures as ‘nature’ by urban communities presents a critical challenge for the green infrastructure concept. While many green infrastructures focus on functional considerations, their refinement as places where concepts of nature are represented and where nature can be experienced and understood, has received...

The MOOC-ability of design education

Stellingwerff, M.C. (author)

In the past three years, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have become an important new way for universities to reach out to possible matriculates, life long learners and alumni. Although MOOCs already cover a vast amount of subjects and curricula, it is remarkable to ascertain the lack of Architectural Design courses on the main platforms...

Exploring architectural history through the Petroleumscapes of the Randstad to imagine new fossil-free futures

Hein, C.M. (author)

Architectural history in the 21st century is expanding beyond its traditional focus on specific styles, materials, or building typologies and on famous architects, iconic movements, or paradigmatic cities. Following other historical fields that have embraced more complex approaches and adopted new analytical frameworks, architectural historians...

Relocating a city, challenges and opportunities for the transition of the water infrastructure in Kiruna

Leonhardt, G. (author), Kuzniecow Bacchin, T. (author), Mair, M. (author), Zischg, J. (author), Ljung, S. (author), Rogers, B. (author), Goldkuhl, L. (author), Gustafsson, A. (author), Sitzenfrei, R. (author), Blecken, G. (author), Ashley, R. (author), Rauch, W. (author), van Timmeren, A. (author), Viklander, M. (author)

The city of Kiruna in Northern Sweden has become known for the need to relocate major parts of the city. Current and future mining activities in the world’s largest underground iron ore mine are the cause of land subsidence that requires relocation of substantial parts of the town including its water infrastructure. Figure 1 shows the area...

Parallel creation of vario-scale data structures for large datasets

Meijers, B.M. (author), Suba, R. (author), van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author)

Processing massive datasets which are not fitting in the main memory of computer is challenging. This is especially true in the case of map generalization, where the relationships between (nearby) features in the map must be considered. In our case, an automated map generalization process runs offline to produce a dataset suitable for...

Prêt-à-Loger: Zero-energy home with maximum living quality increase

Van den Dobbelsteen, A.A.J.F. (author)

At the Solar Decathlon Europe 2014 (SDE2014) competition (Versailles, France), the team from the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) took a stance by not constructing a new-built house but demonstrating the energy renovation of a typical Dutch terraced house. Around a quarter of Dutch housing consists of terraced houses built between 1946...

Data-driven architectural design to production and operation

Bier, H.H. (author), Mostafavi, S. (author)

Data-driven architectural production and operation 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 established bi-directionally so that data-driven architecture is not only produced (designed and fabricated) by digital means but also...

Building resilience in urban settlements through conversion adaptation

Wilkinson, S.J. (author), Remøy, H.T. (author)

The built environment contributes 40% to total global greenhouse gas emissions and 87% of the buildings we will have in 2050 are already built. If predicted climate changes are correct we need to adapt existing stock sustainably. Reuse is an inherently sustainable option, which reduces the amount of waste going to landfill. Inevitably...

Gulden Feniks 2015: Aantal inzendingen weer op niveau

Dubbeling, D.J. (author)

De Gulden Feniks-editie van 2015 heeft na de dip in 2014 weer beduidend meer inzendingen opgeleverd. Wat zijn ditmaal opvallende kenmerken? Niet elke trend is in deze editie terug te vinden, maar dat maakt de prijs niet minder waardevol. Energiebesparing - ook in utiliteitsgebouwen - biijkt steeds vanzelfsprekender.

The built environment contributes 40% to total global greenhouse gas emissions and 87% of the buildings we will have in 2050 are already built. It follows, if predicted climate changes are correct, we need to adapt existing stock sustainably. In city centres outside Australia there is a history of office to residential conversions. These types...

Developing a training module on Gender & spatial justice

Tummers, L.C. (author)

Justice is more than a legal matter: it has spatial and environmental implications and is related to engineering. The concept of ‘spatial justice’ was introduced in 2010 in planning by Eduard Soja. It indicates the accessibility of urban resources such as education and healthcare. Under democratic governments, planning territorial development is...
