Comparing the impacts of geometry level of detail in computational wind engineering with on-site urban measurements

Urbanization has led to more than half of the world’s population living in cities. The design of sustainable and resilient urban environments is becoming increasingly critical to optimize the well-being of their inhabitants and the planet. One of the major challenges in achieving this is the complex wind flow patterns in densely built-up areas,...

Finding the plastic hotspots with (GIS) data: Synthesis Project 2021

The plastic pollution of aquatic environment is undoubtedly an emerging environmental risk, as it negatively affects ecosystems globally to a great extent. To prevent the plastic soup from growing even further, a Delft-based start-up Noria has developed plastic collectors, to remove plastic from rivers and canals before it reaches the ocean. In...
