Salinas Rodriquez, Sergio (author), van de Giesen, N.C. (author), McClain, M.E. (author)Environmental flow (eflow) reference values play a key role in environmental water science and practice. In Mexico, eflow assessments are set by a norm in which the frequency of occurrence is the managing factor to integrate inter-annual and seasonal flow variability components into environmental water reserves. However, the frequency parameters...journal article 2022

Strauss, Tslil (author)Urban Transplant is a tool for post-capitalist architecture. The circular approach, supported by in-depth research into reuse of in-situ structural concrete as components, offers transformation methods in the built environment. A dual site in Brussels, the World Trade Center and a post-industrial terrain, provides a proof of concept for the idea...master thesis 2021

Iyer, Anand (author)The phenomenon of phase unbalance is prevalent in the low voltage distribution grid due to the presence of single-phase loads. The unbalance can cause issues such as capacity underutilisation, transformer losses and problems with induction motors. To ensure the reliability of the upstream grid, it is important to maintain balanced three-phase...master thesis 2021
