Fu, B. (author), Uhlig, S.P.W.G. (author)The evaluation of dynamic Traffic Engineering (TE) algorithms is usually carried out using some specific network(s), traffic pattern(s) and traffic engineering objective(s). As the behavior of a TE algorithm is a consequence of the interactions between the network, the traffic demand and the algorithm itself, the relevance of TE may depend on...conference paper

Arian, M. (author), Tahsini, A.M. (author)Pulse detonation engine is a new concept across air-birthing propulsion systems. Today, due to the unsteady behavior of this type of engine, design optimizations are not completed yet. In this regard, recent studies are focused on the effects of nozzle implementation in this propulsion system. In this paper, the effect of nozzle shape (angle &...conference paper 2006

Itard, L. (author), Van den Bogaard, M. (author), Hasselaar, E. (author)The challenges of sustainable engineering and design are complex and so are the challenges of teaching sustainability to higher education students. This paper deals with teaching environmental sustainability, with a specific focus on the sustainability of buildings. The paper addresses specifically the higher professional and academic education....conference paper 2010

Marques, S.H. (author), Beer, M. (author), Gomes, A.T. (author), Henriques, A.A. (author)The treatment of imprecision attracted continuous interest since the origin of probability as the science of uncertainty. As a matter of fact, probability has been developed to deal with uncertainty and the first argument supporting precise rather than imprecise probability counts on the nature of ordinary measurements. Starting from only a few...conference paper 2015

Bone, M. (author), Cloutier, R.L. (author), Gill, E.K.A. (author), Verma, D. (author)There is increased recognition of the role of systems engineering in reducing the risk (technical, cost, and schedule) on complex space systems development and integration projects. A number of international systems engineering standards have been published in the last five years (ISO 15288, IEEE 1220, and EIA 632). Closer to the space domain,...conference paper 2009

Negenborn, R.R. (author), De Schutter, B. (author), Hellendoorn, J. (author)We discuss an extension of a scheme recently proposed for multi-agent control of large-scale networks, like power networks, road traffic networks, water networks, etc. The original scheme uses serial sequences of agent interactions that under some assumptions make agents locally choose actions that are globally optimal. However, some weaknesses...conference paper 2007

Kopecka, J.A. (author), Santema, S.C. (author), Hultink, H.J. (author)The paper forms part of a multiple case study in progress that focuses on information relationships, i.e., the exchange of information and knowledge at the micro-social level between supplier and buyer firms in the fuzzy front end of product development. The micro-social level is made up of dyadic information relationships between the Design...conference paper 2012

Coenders, J.L. (author)This paper presents two novel open source software developments for design and engineering in the built environment. The first development, called “sustainability-open” [1], aims on providing open source design, analysis and assessment software source code for (environmental) performance of buildings, structures and infrastructure. The aim of...conference paper 2013

Van de Weerd, B. (author), Rolvink, A. (author), Coenders, J.L. (author)Conceptual design is the starting point of the design process. The conceptual design stage comprises the formation of several ideas or design concepts to meet the imposed constraints. StructuralComponents is a software application that attempts to provide the designing engineer with a suitable set of tools for this stage. It facilitates the...conference paper 2012

Steenhuisen, B.M. (author), De Bruijne, M.L.C. (author)This paper reports on the current status of the restructured Dutch rail sector. We empirically studied the strategies traffic controllers display to cope with daily value-conflicts in rail operations, at infrastructure manager ProRail and train operating company NS. We use a new framework to identify types of coping behavior. The findings are...conference paper 2009
