Ghosh, A. (author), Bose, N. (author), Kroesen, O. (author), Bruining, H. (author), Bawane, V.H. (author), Chaubey, P.K. (author)It has for long been assumed that low-income communities do not know their infrastructure needs, so that decisions have been made by authorities without obtaining information and understanding of household and agricultural water demand. This top-down approach has been the reason for the failure of many water management initiatives, particularly...conference paper 2010

Stougie, L. (author), Van der Kooi, H.J. (author)Numerous LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) import terminals are under construction to fulfil the growing demand for energy carriers. After storage in tanks, the LNG needs to be heated and evaporated, also called ‘regasified’, to the natural gas needed in households and industry. Several options exist for providing the required heat. In the interest of...conference paper 2011

Stougie, L. (author), Van der Kooi, H.J. (author)A thorough qualitative investigation of the relation between exergy losses and environmental problems has been conducted. Environmental effects being taken into account include climate change, acidification, eutrophication, disposal and dissipation. It is concluded that almost all environmental effects can be taken into account by studying the...conference paper 2009

Stougie, L. (author), Van der Kooi, H.J. (author)The worldwide demand for Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is growing, which results in numerous LNG import terminals being under construction. In the interest of sustainable development, it is important to decide carefully upon which technology to apply for evaporating the LNG to natural gas. Three options for the evaporation of LNG have been...conference paper 2010

Stougie, L. (author)A major challenge in striving for a more sustainable society is the selection of technological systems. Given the capital intensity of industrial production plants, power generation systems and infrastructure, investment decisions create path dependencies for decades to come. It is difficult to know which technological system is preferable when...doctoral thesis 2014

Van Gorp, A.C. (author)The goal of this research is to obtain insight in how engineers deal with ethical issues in daily engineering design practice. It is reasonable to assume that ethical issues and the way engineers deal with them depend on characteristics of the design process. I have made use of Vincentis dimensions to characterize different design processes:...doctoral thesis 2005

Del Frate, L. (author)Failure is a central notion both in ethics of engineering and in engineering practice. Engineers devote considerable resources to assure their products will not fail and considerable progress has been made in the development of tools and methods for understanding and avoiding failure. Engineering ethics, on the other hand, is concerned with the...journal article 2012

De Brito, M.P. (author), Van der Laan, E.A. (author)Research has pointed out opportunities and research agendas to integrate sustainability issues with supply chain and operations management. However, we find that it is still not mainstream practice to systematically take a sustainability approach in tackling supply chain and operations management issues. In this paper, we make use of behavioral...journal article 2010

Chappin, E.J.L. (author), Ligtvoet, A. (author)Sustainability policy in the early 2000s is based on and therefore influenced by scientific literature on ‘transition’. The importance of this link has inspired the authors to explore the structure of cooperating authors and citation networks in the field. In order to understand ‘transition’ literature, we compare it with an alternative term for...journal article 2013
