van Loon-Steensma, J.M. (author), Vellinga, Pier (author)This article describes and analyzes the reintroduction of the “wide green dike” in the Netherlands. It is a noteworthy example of implementation of an innovation in long-term strategic delta planning. The Dutch Delta Program was central herein. Pursuing its ambition to make the Netherlands climate-proof, the Delta Program invited a diverse set...journal article 2019

Korbee, D. (author), Hong Quan, Nguyen (author), Hermans, L.M. (author), Ho Long, Phi (author)Strategic delta planning focuses on strategic, long-term choices to stimulate sustainable development in deltas. Strategic delta plans outline a long-term vision to be embedded into the plans and activities of government agencies and semi-public actors at multiple levels. This implies a form of coordinated, yet decentralized, implementation....journal article 2019

van der Wagen, Wytske (author), Pieters, W. (author)Victims are often conceptualized as single, human and static entities with certain risk factors that make them more vulnerable and attractive for offenders. This framework is challenged by emerging forms of high-tech cybercrime, such as ransomware, botnets and virtual theft, in which the offender targets a composite of human, technical and...journal article 2018

Roukouni, A. (author), Macharis, Cathy (author), Basbas, Socrates (author), Stephanis, Basil (author), Mintsis, George (author)Purpose: A family of innovative financial mechanisms and tools for urban public transport, based on the value increment caused by enhanced accessibility, are lately gaining much popularity as a solution to the challenges posed by public financial resources’ shrinkage: Value Capture Finance (VCF). The effectiveness of applied transport...journal article 2018

van Geenhuizen, M.S. (author)Living labs, as a methodology to enhance user-centric innovation, have large potentials in bringing inventions to the marketplace, but their performance can benefit more from evaluation. This article develops a novel framework for evaluation of living labs, including (1) a system approach providing an analytical view on living labs’...journal article 2018

Ravulakollu, V.B.A.K. (author), Urciuoli, Luca (author), Rukanova, B.D. (author), Tan, Y. (author), Hakvoort, R.A. (author)Risk management frameworks offer excellent tools to identify and manage risks in supply chains. Existing tools can be used to evaluate impacts of countermeasures, however, analysts struggle with modelling how disruptions escalate in complex supply chain systems within a certain amount of time and across several stakeholders. On the contrary, the...journal article 2018

Bontje, L.E. (author), Slinger, J (author)The cyclic nature of integrated coastal management embodies a learning-based approach. Pilot projects in particular have an explicit learning objective. Whereas learning from (changing) physical aspects is often part of the monitoring and evaluation phase within the ICM cycle, learning from the experiences of people is not structurally...journal article 2017

Silveira, André (author), Junier, S.J. (author), Hüesker, Frank (author), Qunfang, Fan (author), Rondorf, Andreas (author)ABSTRACT: This paper analyses the drivers and constraints for effective cross-sectoral collaboration in river basin management and the extent to which factors identified in related literature determine success or failure of collaboration in selected case studies. Cases selected were from industrialized and densely populated catchments, where...journal article 2016

Smits, E.-S. (author), Pel, A.J. (author), van Nes, R. (author), van Arem, B. (author)Bij mobiliteitsbeprijzing zijn meerdere actoren, zoals verschillende overheden en de spoorwegen, betrokken. In dit paper wordt een model gepresenteerd op basis van speltheorie dat de voorkeuren en interactie van deze actoren analyseert. Zo een model kan tijdens het planningsproces gebruikt worden om conflicterende belangen te identificeren en er...journal article 2016

Ertsen, M.W. (author)In the first half of the 20th century, colonial rulers, a British firm and Sudanese farmers changed the Gezira Plain in Sudan into a large-scale irrigated cotton scheme. Gezira continues to be in use up to date. Its story shows how the abstract concept 'development' is shaped through the agency of humans and non-humans alike in government...journal article 2016

(author), Slager, K. (author), Vermoolen, M.S. (author), Hasan, S. (author), Hoang, V. T M (author), van Halsema, G (author)Sectoral planning on water, agriculture and urban development has not been able to prevent increased flood risks and environmental degradation in many deltas. Governments conceive strategic delta planning as a promising planning approach and develop strategic delta plans. Such plans are linked to actions and means for implementation in the...journal article 2016

Van der Laan, T.A. (author)The works [Volodymyr et al. Playing atari with deep reinforcement learning. arXiv preprint arXiv:1312.5602, 2013.] and [Volodymyr et al. Human-level control through deep reinforcement learning. Nature, 518(7540):529–533, 2015.] have demonstrated the power of combining deep neural networks with Watkins Q learning. They introduce deep Q networks ...journal article 2015

Ardic, O. (author), Annema, J.A. (author), van Wee, G.P. (author)The implementation of road pricing policies is dependent on political support for the policy. It is frequently argued that many pricing proposals fail to be implemented due to the opposition of one or a group of policy actors (e.g. political parties, interest groups). This study considers this issue and examines the reasons for non...journal article 2015

Chen, Y. (author), Wigmans, G. (author)Urban development has become increasingly complex in recent times. This is not only because of the multiplicity of actors involved and the complexity of social developments, but it is also because the scope of the implications of urban area development has significantly enlarged: they often significantly transgress the area concerned and even...journal article 2011

Vreugdenhil, H. (author), Slinger, J. (author), Thissen, W. (author), Ker Rault, P. (author)Pilot projects appear in many forms in policy making and management. In an effort to understand the nature and use of pilot projects and improve their effectiveness, we undertake a practice-based and theoretical study of the pilot project phenomenon. First, we examine the roles assigned to pilot projects in the policy development literature and...journal article 2010

Hermans, L.M. (author)International experiences with water policy and governance arrangements are shared through various international meetings and reports. The underlying assumption is that these experiences provide useful information to policy makers who are looking for ways to improve water resources management in their home country or region. However, little has...journal article 2010

De Bruijne, M.L.C. (author), Van de Riet, O.A.W.T. (author), De Haan, A.R.C. (author), Koppenjan, J. (author)Sustainable mobility has proved to be a perennial challenge to realize. Scholars have argued that experiments could point the way forward towards sustainable mobility (cf. Loorbach, 2007, Markard and Truffer, 2008). In doing so, literature attributes a vital but complex task to those who engage in experiments. However, an important knowledge gap...journal article 2010

Vreugdenhil, H.S.I. (author), Slinger, J. (author), Kater, E. (author), Thissen, W. (author)The debate on scale use in river management focuses primarily on the (lack of) fit between the biogeophysical and institutional systems. However, in this article we focus on the ‘subjective’ aspect of scale preferences in water governance. We apply an adapted version of the Integrated Scale Hierarchy for Rivers to determine the degree of fit...journal article 2010

De Bruijn, J.A. (author), Herder, P.M. (author)This paper addresses the complexity of analyzing and designing sociotechnical systems: systems that involve both complex physical-technical systems and networks of interdependent actors. It is shown that, although a hard system perspective and an actor perspective differ greatly in terms of terminology, methods, and applicability, they also show...journal article 2009

Hermans, L.M. (author)A persistent challenge for the development of well-informed and sound environmental policies is to improve the connection between environmental experts, decision makers, and other involved actors. Answers are sought in processes for social learning and adaptive co-management that engage experts, decision makers, and local actors in an...journal article 2008
