Wong, Dominique Hiulong (author), Zhang, Chunbo (author), Di Maio, F. (author), Hu, Mingming (author)Lack of knowledge and tools hampers circular transition in the construction industry. This study analyzes the potential of a framework of circular indicators put forward by the Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM-C) as an answer to the prevailing need of a metric for building circularity assessment to...journal article 2024

van Laar, B.R. (author), Greco, A. (author), Remøy, H.T. (author), Gruis, V.H. (author)Despite the significant growth of the literature on adaptive reuse, little is known about the specific criteria unfolding throughout the different phases of the adaptive reuse decision-making process. To address this gap this paper aims to provide a comprehensive, state-of-the-art overview of the decision criteria for adaptive reuse...review 2024

Knaven, Hugo (author)Due to climate change, there is a push toward a reduction of greenhouse gasses. Through spatial planning, the province of South Holland plays a role in this process. However, this requires insights into relation between the energy system and the built environment that is currently lacking. This thesis shows how spatial clustering using the K...master thesis 2023

Langenberg, Berend (author)On the real estate market, there will always be a demand for newly constructed real estate. Demand and supply are never quite in balance, meaning that the construction of new real estate will always exist. However, looking for opportunities to satisfy the demand with the existing building stock is often forgotten or neglected. 87% of the needed...master thesis 2023

Belt, Britt (author)As climate change and resource shortages increasingly threaten our planet, the built environment sector is under scrutiny due to its significant contribution to carbon emissions and global raw resource extraction. A transition towards a circular economy, replacing the prevailing "take-make-dispose" model, is crucial. This research explores the...master thesis 2023

Meijer, Judith (author)European climate goals to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celcius are unachievable in their current form because current green energy technologies needed for the energy transition rely too much on critical raw materials (CRMs). This thesis sought to design something that reduces the negative impact living has on the climate while making...master thesis 2023

Hou, H. (author), Lai, Joseph H.K. (author), Wu, Hao (author), Wang, T. (author)This paper aims to investigate the theoretical and practical links between digital twin (DT) application in heritage facilities management (HFM) from a life cycle management perspective and to signpost the future development directions of DT in HFM.<br/><br/>This state-of-the-art review was conducted using a systematic literature review method....review 2023

Hu, Yang (author), van Wee, G.P. (author), Ettema, Dick (author)Featuring the most direct and closest social relationships, the household plays a crucial role in influencing an individual's wants, needs, and behavior. However, the role of intra-household decisions in the connection between the built environment and activity-travel behavior has not been systematically analyzed. This paper adds to the...review 2023

Tao, Y. (author), Petrović, A. (author), van Ham, M. (author), Fu, Xingxing (author)Residential self-selection studies argue that pre-existing travel-related attitude overshadows the role of changes in residential built environment in (re)shaping travel behaviours. Our study contributes to this self-selection argument by including family- and job-related life events as another self-selection source, and accounting for the...journal article 2023

Ahmed, Istiaque (author), van Esch, M.M.E. (author), van der Hoeven, F.D. (author)Heatwaves in urbanized areas, even in temperate regions like the Netherlands, are getting serious attention. The Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute predicts more frequent and intense heat events in the future. Studies have explored how Dutch cities contribute to heatwaves and suggested design and planning responses to mitigate their...journal article 2023

Homayounirad, A. (author)There is a lack of an intelligent platform that supports continuous deliberation and captures diverse views and stakeholders’ values during the architectural design process in the early stages. Using hybrid intelligence, this study proposes a method that integrates value, and design pattern theories, to support deliberation during the design...conference paper 2023

Visser, Rose (author)95 % of all the buildings in the Netherlands rely on natural gas for heat. But in just 30 years, all of these 7 million homes must have said goodbye to gas forever. A complex project, since the alternative to gas, is not a one size fits all solution. There are several options and their feasibility is highly dependent on the neighborhood context....master thesis 2022

Nieuwhoff, Koert (author)The reuse of secondary materials will be important in achieving a circular built environment. But now, this is challenging since material streams are not synchronized in terms of space and time. Building material hubs, a location where materials are gathered, examined, and momentarily stored before being packed and sent to the building site...master thesis 2022

Mazo Goez, Anyely (author)The circular economy in the construction sector aims to lessen the environmental impact of construction projects by incorporating the end-of-life phase into the design and the conscious use of reusable resources. To achieve a circular economy in the built environment, it has been evidenced in the literature and practice that governance...master thesis 2022

Hoveling, Mark (author)The growing global population combined with improved prosperity has increased the energy demand. The consequence of this growing energy demand is an increase in greenhouse gas emissions leading to climate change. The irreversible and worrying consequences of climate change have led to various national and international targets. In the...master thesis 2022

Neuteboom, Mark (author)This thesis focusses on the influence of the built environment on the stigma of elderly. Stigma and assumptions over past care concepts influence care giving and age-exclusion, which create a misconception of the current state of care facilities. This misconception limits the possibility of an inclusive built environment for the elderly. The...master thesis 2022

Hessels, Alexander (author)In the Advanced Housing Design Studio we explored how housing design can successfully address the challenge of reducing the ecological footprint of its residents and assure social inclusion. In this studio an emphasis was put on the housing concept of collective living. A cooperative housing concept that offers the opportunity to create a living...master thesis 2022

Luteijn-Nava Guerrero, G.D.C. (author)In the Netherlands, a complex heat transition is taking place. Currently, the country's built environment largely relies on natural gas for heating. By 2050, the housing sector should, in principle, be free of this fuel. Changes in laws, policies, regulations, and technical solutions to achieve this goal will be challenging. Their implementation...doctoral thesis 2022

Hamida, M.B. (author), Jylhä, T.E. (author), Remøy, H.T. (author), Gruis, V.H. (author)Purpose: Adaptability is an inherent quality in building circularity, as adaptability can physically facilitate the reversibility of materials in a closed-reversible chain, also called “loops”. Nevertheless, positioning adaptability in circularity-oriented models could overlook some of the contextual considerations that contribute to the...journal article 2022
