Entrop, A.G. (author), Dewulf, G.P.M.R. (author)Financial appraisal is an important aspect in adopting techniques that reduce the (fossil) energy use of buildings. When financial appraisal of an energy technique takes place, fixed prices for the form and amount of energy are often used and are multiplied by the estimated amount of energy savings. However, after a certain time period an energy...conference paper 2011

Haffner, M.E.A. (author), Heylen, K. (author)Recently housing affordability has reached the agenda in Flanders and the Netherlands, giving a good reason to present a review of the concept of affordability and different definitions. The concept of short-term affordability, which is concerned with financial access to a dwelling and is based on cash flows, is combined with the concept of long...journal article 2011

Mouter, N. (author), Annema, J.A. (author), Van Wee, B. (author)In the Netherlands a guideline for carrying out a CBA for infrastructure projects (the so-called OEI-manual) was constructed in the year 2000. Since then a CBA in line with the OEI-manual became compulsory in the decision making process for all large infrastructure national projects. The aim of this research is to define the main problems in the...conference paper 2011

(author), Van der Lugt, A. (author), Van Vliet, L.J. (author), Niessen, W.J. (author)We propose a minimum cost path approach to track the centerlines of the internal and external carotid arteries in multispectral MR data. User interaction is limited to the annotation of three seed points. The cost image is based on both a measure of vessel medialness and lumen intensity similarity in two MRA image sequences: Black Blood MRA and...conference paper 2011

Lans, D. (author)Through the use of eco-label guidelines, eco-design guidelines, and LCA-based environmental impact and sustainability indicators like Eco-costs, the Eco-cost to Value Ratio (EVR) and ReCiPe points, a boundary and baseline for new product development can be set to which an improvement can be measured. In addition to this the LCA based indicators...master thesis 2011

Tran, T.B. (author)Decision support model that determines which air emission reduction technologies can be installed on a ship, such that the ship will comply with IMO ANNEX VI Regulation 13 (NOx regulation). Consecutively, the model will determine which remaining air emission reduction technology is the cheapest so a long term cost-efficient decision can be taken.master thesis 2010

Sminia, O. (author), Vogtländer, J. (author), Brezet, H. (author)The European Coastal Islands around the North sea, are joined together in a project that stimulates sustainable development. Within this 'Cradle-to-Cradle Islands' project, some islands were selected as breading grounds for potentially sustainable projects. One of these projects was the development of a device for transport: the Vrachtfiets. A...conference paper 2010

Van Zundert, H.C.W. (author)Many large airport face problems of congestion in the terminal. Several studies have identified the check-in process as the bottleneck process. However, proposed solutions in literature are limited to changes inside the terminal. In this research, a wider supply chain perspective is applied to the passenger and baggage flows of airports. An off...master thesis 2010

Carmona Benitez, R.B. (author), Lodewijks, G. (author)This paper examines the effects that low-cost carriers (LCC’s) produce when entering new routes operated only by full-service carriers (FSC’s) and routes operated by low-cost carriers in competition with full-service carriers. A mathematical model has been developed to determine what routes should be operated by a low-cost carrier with better...conference paper 2010
