Taberna, A. (author)Amid the Anthropocene, the escalating threat of flooding, driven by extreme rainfall and sea-level rise, challenges societies worldwide. In the last two decades, floods have impacted billions and inflicted colossal economic losses. Concurrently, the global trend towards urbanization predicts that by 2050, about 70\% of the global population will...doctoral thesis 2024

De Martino, P. (author)Over time, a large number of stakeholders have affected the Italian port city of Naples. The millenary history of Naples reveals a port that has been strongly intertwined with the city. Yet, recent history shows a different story. The historical investigation analysed in this article points out a conflict between several different authorities...journal article 2024

Swinkels, Siene (author)Many western European countries have undergone the process of deindustrialisation. The has resulted in a changed economy focused on knowledge. This went hand in hand with urbanisation, resulting in explosive population growth in many cities. In combination with the rise of neoliberal planning made cities an attractive investment object. All...master thesis 2023

Dieudonné, A.A.M. (author), Gatabin, Claude (author), Dridi, Wissem (author), Talandier, Jean (author), Collin, Frédéric (author), Charlier, Robert (author)This paper presents a comprehensive investigation of the swelling behaviour of a compacted bentonite–sand mixture subjected to hydration under constant volume conditions. Contrary to previous studies, the tested sample was isotropically compacted before being hydrated under constant volume conditions until full saturation was reached. The...journal article 2023

Alves Maia, M. (author), Rocha, I.B.C.M. (author), Kerfriden, P. (author), van der Meer, F.P. (author)Driven by the need to accelerate numerical simulations, the use of machine learning techniques is rapidly growing in the field of computational solid mechanics. Their application is especially advantageous in concurrent multiscale finite element analysis (FE<sup>2</sup>) due to the exceedingly high computational costs often associated with it...journal article 2023

Liu, S. (author), Grzelak, L.A. (author), Oosterlee, C.W. (author)We propose an accurate data-driven numerical scheme to solve stochastic differential equations (SDEs), by taking large time steps. The SDE discretization is built up by means of the polynomial chaos expansion method, on the basis of accurately determined stochastic collocation (SC) points. By employing an artificial neural network to learn these...journal article 2022

Alves Maia, M. (author), Rocha, I.B.C.M. (author), van der Meer, F.P. (author)In a concurrent (FE2) multiscale modeling is an increasingly popular approach for modeling complex materials. As such, it is especially suited for modeling composites, as their complex microstructure can be explicitly modeled and nested to each integration point of the macroscale. However, this generality is often associated with exceedingly...conference paper 2022

Taberna, A. (author), Filatova, T. (author), Roventini, Andrea (author), Lamperti, Francesco (author)By 2050 about 80% of the world’s population is expected to live in cities. Cities offer spatial economic advantages that create agglomeration forces and innovation that foster concentration of economic activities, but for historic reasons cluster along coasts and rivers that are prone to climate-driven flooding. To explore tradeoffs between...conference paper 2022

De Martino, P. (author)Port and city authorities all over Europe and beyond are striving with finding solutions able to combine sustainability with economic growth. Several global urgencies in fact, such as climate change, energy transition, the exponential changes in the scale of ports and ships and last but not least the economic and health shock related to the...book chapter 2022

Taberna, A. (author), Filatova, T. (author), Roventini, Andrea (author), Lamperti, Francesco (author)By 2050 about 70% of the world's population is expected to live in cities. Cities offer spatial economic advantages that boost agglomeration forces and innovation, fostering further concentration of economic activities. For historic reasons urban centers cluster along coasts, which are prone to climate-induced flooding and sea level rise. To...journal article 2022

Meng, M. (author), Dabrowski, M.M. (author), Xiong, L. (author), Stead, D. (author)Given the greater risk of flooding in cities due to climate change, spatial planning systems are increasingly expected to contribute to flood resilience. However, incorporating expanded adaption measures in conventional planning practices remains a major challenge due to institutional barriers. Based on the theories of historical...journal article 2022

Cats, O. (author), Birch, Nigel (author)The development of public transport networks in polycentric regions involves making complex trade-offs between extending network coverage, densifying local connections, offering improved connections between urban centers and increasing capacity on existing links. Moreover, different modalities might be suitable for each of these development...journal article 2021

Cantarelli, Chantal C. (author), Oglethorpe, David (author), van Wee, G.P. (author)Lock-in is defined as the tendency to continue with an inefficient decision or project proposal. The front-end phase is critical to project success, yet most studies have focused on lock-in in the implementation phase. Moreover, little is known about the way in which decision-makers perceive the risk of lock-in. In this paper we identify...journal article 2021

Nering Bögel, Meyke (author)In 2018, the number of forcibly displaced people all over the world was higher than ever before. More than a third of this group are refugees, often living in refugee camps. NGOs try to deliver all necessary aid to these camps, while facing limited access and resources. Therefore, they want to optimize the results of the aid they deliver. The...master thesis 2020

De Martino, P. (author)Since 2016, the reorganization of the Italian port legislation through the decree n.169 has introduced port systems, as a new institutional umbrella helping improving ports efficiency. However, this new entity challenges the goals and interests of local stakeholders, which have their own tradition and have independently developed spatial...review 2020

Hein, C.M. (author)Diverse actors have built port city regions at the edge of land and water, often over many centuries. Through their collaboration they have helped develop creative solutions to problems faced by port cities in the past. Their patterns of engagement have led to paradigms that can promote or hinder transitions. Identifying these paradigms and...review 2020

Hein, C.M. (author), Schubert, Dirk (author)Port spaces, functions, and interests have shaped the growth and development of many cities around the world. At times, different stakeholders—private and public, local, regional, national and global—have collaborated to assure the continuity of port functions in old and new locations and, if the port relocates or if that effort fails, to...journal article 2020

De Martino, P. (author)Historical paths matter in port-city regions. Here, spatial patterns and governance arrangements are path dependent to the point that once certain paths have been established, these become hard to change. This defines a condition of institutional inertia that plays a significant role in preventing any form of spatial change. Naples is an...journal article 2020

Donk, Rick (author)Turret structures within FPSO's are subjected to a variety of repeated loads, due to the harsh environment they operate in during their service live, meaning that fatigue is a governing limit state in turret structural design. Turret structural components are connected by arc-welded joints which are considered particularly susceptible to fatigue...master thesis 2019

Gruis, V.H. (author)By way of introduction, this chapter explains the main differences and convergences in housing provision paradigms in European and Chilean cities. From housing as part of Welfare State models, both societies have seen the replacement of the right to housing by the financialization of housing. The chapter highlights a red thread in this book,...book chapter 2019
