Improving water efficiency and crop yield on a sugarcane plantation in Xinavane, Mozambique: An analysis of irrigation practices, yield variability and the potential of a decision support system

This report contains the findings of a multidisciplinary project in Mozambique which ran from mid-November 2018 to mid-January 2019. This study is part of the IWACA-TECH project, which is an abbreviation for “Improved Water efficiency Control based on remote sensing TECHnologies. The goal is to increase water efficiency and crop yield without...

Less is More: Improved Traffic Flow Efficiency Effects at Vehicle-Actuated Signalised Intersections with Permitted Conflicts as opposed to Protected Conflicts

Permitted conflicts at (vehicle-actuated) signalised intersections are widely researched, though with the main focus on the traffic safety implications, because with permitted conflicts, two or more conflicting streams at a signalised intersection receive green at the same time, and thus meet at the conflict zone, as opposed to protected...

tunus - tiny house project: an interdisciplinary approach to architecture

A tiny house is a building for permanent human habitation that is specifically designed to have a limited ground surface. The tiny house design discussed in this report has a strong focus on circularity, sustainable material usage, smart systems, and affordability. To achieve an overall self-regulating and ecological concept, the aim is to...
