Havik, K.M. (author)By recognizing the potential of literary language in the description of architectural atmospheres, this contribution aims to confront the shortcomings of conventional pedagogical approaches in architecture that often fail to provide an in-depth understanding of the experiential aspects of place. To contribute to the development of appropriate...journal article 2019

Spoelstra, A.M.C.M.G. (author), Hirsch, Maximilian (author), Sciacchitano, A. (author), Scarano, F. (author)The Ring of Fire (RoF) measurement concept to perform on-site experiments of aerodynamic drag for transiting objects is investigated with a study that identifies the main sources of uncertainty. The main contributors to the uncertainty of the drag measurement are examined for the case of a cyclist riding through the measurement domain. A...journal article 2020

de Gast, T. (author), Vardon, P.J. (author), Hicks, M.A. (author)Soil spatial variability has a significant impact on the reliability of geotechnical structures. In particular, the horizontal variability is important for linear infrastructure, which has only limited vertical height and width, but extensive length. Due to depositional and geological processes, the variability is often substantially...journal article 2021

Tsalidis, G.A. (author), Xevgenos, Dimitris (author), Ktori, R. (author), Krishnan, Adithya (author), Posada Duque, J.A. (author)The sustainable supply of water is crucial, especially on islands where water is scarce. Our study applied the social life cycle assessment (S-LCA), under the organizational approach, to assess industrial water production on the island of Lampedusa, Italy. A novel plant for industrial water production considering a circular concept was...journal article 2023

Trikannad, S.A. (author), van Halem, D. (author), Foppen, J.W.A. (author), van der Hoek, J.P. (author)Slow Sand Filtration is popular in drinking water treatment for the removal of a wide range of contaminants (e.g., particles, organic matter, and microorganisms). The Schmutzdecke in slow sand filters (SSFs) is known to be essential for pathogen removal, however, this layer is also responsible for increased head loss. Since the role of deeper...journal article 2023

de Wit, S.I. (author), van der Velde, J.R.T. (author)Background: The field of urban forestry encompasses many dimensions, of which that of visual-spatial perception, addressing the spatial relationship between city and trees, has received little attention. Analyzing the urban forest from a visual-spatial perspective is needed to understand relationships between different components as well as site...journal article 2024

Shirmohammadi, F. (author), Draganov, D.S. (author), Hatami, Mohammad Reza (author), Weemstra, C. (author)Seismic interferometry (SI) refers to the principle of generating new seismic responses using crosscorrelations of existing wavefield recordings. In this study, we report on the use of a specific interferometric approach, called seismic interferometry by multidimensional deconvolution (SI by MDD), for the purpose of retrieving surface-wave...journal article 2021

Varkey, D. (author), Hicks, M.A. (author), van den Eijnden, A.P. (author)Uncertainty is inevitable in the characterisation of a geotechnical site, especially due to the inherently heterogeneous nature of the ground. In this paper, a method for characterising a subsurface with limited cone penetration test (CPT) data is proposed. The method is based on integrating predictions of CPT parameters with a probabilistic...journal article 2023

Marin, L. (author)This article explores the norms that govern regular users’ acts of sharing content on social networking sites. Many debates on how to counteract misinformation on Social Networking Sites focus on the epistemic norms of testimony, implicitly assuming that the users’ acts of sharing should fall under the same norms as those for posting original...journal article 2021

Schott, D.L. (author), Mohajeri, M. (author), Jovanova, J. (author), Lommen, S.W. (author), de Kluijver, Wilbert (author)The design of machinery for handling granular materials relies mainly on empirical methods and in-house engineering knowledge. This traditional approach provides incremental improvements that are often limited. Advancements in simulation and optimization can offer a promising alternative approach. Most of the research involved in improving or...journal article 2021

Tsui, T.P.Y. (author), Furlan, C. (author), Wandl, Alex (author), van Timmeren, A. (author)Implementing a circular economy in cities has been proposed by policy makers as a potential solution for achieving sustainability in the construction sector. One strategy that has gained interest by both policy makers and companies is to develop “circular construction hubs”: locations that collect, store, and redistribute waste as secondary...journal article 2024

(author), Nickel, Joachim (author)Bone Morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) like BMP2 and BMP7 have shown great potential in the treatment of severe bone defects. In recent in vitro studies, BMP9 revealed the highest osteogenic potential compared to other BMPs, possibly due to its unique signaling pathways that differs from other osteogenic BMPs. However, in vivo the bone forming...journal article 2023
