Ten Veldhuis, J.A.E. (author), Ochoa-Rodriguez, S. (author), Gires, A. (author), van Assel, J. (author), Ichiba, A. (author), Kroll, S. (author), Wang, L. (author), Tchiguirinskaia, I. (author), Schertzer, D. (author), Willems, P. (author)Cities are particularly vulnerable to rainfall-generated floods that are typically characterised by their rapid onset and localised nature. This implies that precipitation and catchment information need to be available at high resolution to reliably predict hydrological response and potential flooding. On the contrary, urban areas constitute a...conference paper 2015

Van Oort, N. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), van Lint, J.W.C. (author)Bereikbaarheid en daarmee mobiliteit en transport systemen zijn van vitaal belang van onze steden en regio’s. Verkeer en vervoer spelen een cruciale rol in het mogelijk maken van activiteiten voor mensen en bedrijven. Maatregelen, ingrepen en innovaties laten historisch een verbetering van de bereikbaarheid zien en daarmee van de vrijheid van...conference paper 2015

(author), Schertzer, D. (author), Willems, P. (author)In this study high resolution precipitation data are used, derived from polarimetric X-band radar at 100 m, 1 min resolution. The data are used to study the impact of different space-time resolutions of rainfall input on urban hydrodynamic modelling response for 9 storms, in 7 urban catchments. The results show that hydrodynamic response...conference paper 2015

Tziviloglou, E. (author), Wiktor, V.A.C. (author), Jonkers, H.M. (author), Schlangen, E. (author)The innovative technology of self-healing concrete allows the material to repair the open micro-cracks that can endanger the structure’s durability, due to ingress of aggressive liquids. Various concepts of self-healing concrete use encapsulation techniques, in order to immobilize and protect the healing agent during mixing and setting. In this...conference paper 2015

Versteijlen, W.G. (author), De Oliveira Barbosa, J.M. (author), Van Dalen, K.N. (author), Metrikine, A. (author)The motivation for this work stems from the offshore wind industry, where designers are faced with a discrepancy between the available design methods and the typical dimensions of the offshore wind foundations that call for other design approaches. Throughout the years, much valuable work has been performed in the prediction of long, slender,...conference paper 2015

Varotto, S.F. (author), Glerum, A. (author), Stathopoulos, A. (author), Bierlaire, M. (author), Longo, G. (author)Travel behaviour models typically rely on data afflicted by errors, in perception (e.g., over/under-estimation by traveller) and measurement (e.g., software or researcher imputation error). Such errors are shown to have a relevant impact on model outputs. So far a comprehensive framework to deal with different types of biases related to travel...conference paper 2015

Boullenger, B. (author), Verdel, A. (author), Paap, B. (author), Draganov, D.S. (author)Ambient-noise seismic interferometry (ANSI) applied to passive body-wave measurements retrieves an estimate of the reflection response as if from a source at a receiver position. Often, the limited compliance with theoretical assumptions causes erroneous absolute amplitudes of the retrieved physical reflections, and additional artefacts....conference paper 2015

Arbi, K.A. (author), Nedeljkovic, M. (author), Zuo, Y. (author), Grunewald, S. (author), Keulen, A. (author), Ye, G. (author)This paper presents an investigation on workability and strength of geopolymer concrete made of fly ash (FA), blast furnace slag (BFS) and a multicompound activator of Na2SiO3 and NaOH solutions. The FA/BFS ratios were 100:0, 70:30, 60:40, 50:50, 40:60, 30:70 and 0:100. The workability of geopolymer concretes was performed by using slump test...conference paper 2015

(author)About 40-50% of global raw materials are currently used in the building industry in the assembly/construction phase and in the use phase of the building and are responsible for 40-45% of total worldwide anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions (Huovila [5]). These problems have led to the development of legislative policies, regulations and...conference paper 2015

Salauddin, M. (author), Broere, A. (author), Van der Meer, J.W. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author), Bijl, E. (author)A new and symmetrical single layer armour unit, the crablock, has been designed in the UAE. One breakwater was reconstructed with crablock, but very limited testing had been performed. Just to become more acquainted with this new unit, pre-competitive research at a university has been performed, which is the subject of this paper. Being a new...conference paper 2015

Green, D. (author), Hodkiewicz, M. (author), Masschelein, S. (author), Schoenmaker, R. (author), Muruvan, S. (author)Setting targets is a common way for organisations to establish performance expectations. However the validity of targets is challenged when performance is influenced by factors beyond the control of the manager. This project examines the issue of target setting for a single asset performance measure across different geographical areas. The...conference paper 2015

Bal, F. (author), Vleugel, J.M. (author)Ruim een eeuw na de uitvinding van de automotor zien we nu de derde poging om elektrische aandrijving voor (personen)auto’s aan de man of vrouw te brengen. Het gaat inmiddels om een groeiend aantal automodellen en varianten in kleine series. De impact van een beperkt aantal van deze auto’s op de maatschappij en het milieu is daarmee nog beperkt....conference paper 2015

Blacquiere, G. (author), Berkhout, A.J. (author)In marine acquisition both a direct wavefield and a ghost wavefield are produced as well as recorded. Hence, the seismic data can be considered to be a natural blend of four wavefields related to the real sources, ghost sources, real detectors and ghost detectors respectively. We consider deghosting to be deblending ('echo-deblending'), leading...conference paper 2015
