Boerstoel, J.W. (author), Huizing, G.H. (author)A design method for transonic shock-free aerofoils using analytic hodograph theory is sketched. A user-oriented outline of the program system that has been developed is presented. A number of examples of computed aerofoils show that the performance of the program system seems to be sifficient for advanced transonic shock-free aerofoil design.report 1973

Steenbergen, R.D.J.M. (author)The design of tall and irregularly shaped buildings becomes more and more usual. A profound understanding of the force transfer and the serviceability conditions in these types of structures is needed. The considered buildings have a building plan that is not constant along the height and the effects of the in-plane floor stiffnesses coupling...doctoral thesis 2007

Chrysanthopoulou, A. (author)A decision taking method is proposed where inhabitants and experts will communicate in order to define the most desired spatial configuration for the area. Marowijne is a region in Suriname where small villages fighting with the conditions to survive are proposed to join forces in a network of clusters. A design method is proposed baseed on the...master thesis 2008

Matsuhashi, N. (author)Introduction: This study explores a method to designing less resource-intensive forms of everyday life. The method is geared toward the early phase of product development, which is the generation of insights and design ideas. Looking at daily behavior, one can observe clear differences between different cultures. From this observation, the study...master thesis 2009

Matsuhashi, N. (author), Kuijer, L. (author), De Jong, A.M. (author)This paper explores a design method to generate insights for designing less resource-intensive forms of everyday life. This study takes the assumption that looking at cultural diversity can widen the variety of insights which can be used as a source of inspiration for designing sustainable practices. However, there is a lack of clear-cut...conference paper 2009

Tsimopoulou, V. (author)One of the failure mechanisms of a rubble mound breakwater is the failure of its armour layer. In order to determine the stability of an armour layer, the design load has to be defined, which is in fact the wave that attacks the structure. Being a highly stochastic phenomenon, the wave action is not easily defined, while there is always some...master thesis 2010

Vermaas, P.E. (author), Tan, Y.H. (author), Van den Hoven, J. (author), Burgemeestre, B. (author), Hulstijn, J. (author)In this paper, we consider the meaning, roles, and uses of trust in the economic and public domain, focusing on the task of designing systems for trust in information technology. We analyze this task by means of a survey of what trust means in the economic and public domain, using the model proposed by Lewicki and Bunker, and using the emerging...journal article 2010

De Borja, J. (author), Kuijer, S.C. (author), Aprile, W.A. (author)Activities around food have implications for the environment, personal nutrition, identity, and social relationships. As a way of understanding how daily routines evolve, practice theory (a theory of social action from sociology) provides a framework through which the complexities around consumer food habits can be understood and reveal avenues...conference paper 2010

Meershoek, C.J. (author)Serious games are an important tool in creating, explaining, building, deploying and evaluating solutions for complex multi-actor problems. The Indian electricity challenge is such a complex multi-actor problem which forms the content of the Indian Electricity Game. To become a success it is necessary that serious games, like the Indian...master thesis 2010

Snelder, M. (author), Egeter, B. (author), Hendriks, T. (author), Immers, L.H. (author)P+R-plus is a new layer of P+R (Park and Ride) on top of existing P+R facilities at many public transport stops. Someone who parks his car at a P+R-plus location is guaranteed that he can reach all important locations within a metropolitan region with a maximum of one transfer and with metro quality (reliable and highly frequent). This implies...conference paper 2011

Van Adrichem, M.E. (author)Bio inspired design (BID) is not a new way of designing, neither is this the first co-evolutionary design project. But combining these two design approaches into co-evolutionary bio inspired design (CoBID) is something that has not been done before. Bio inspired design can roughly be divided into two different approaches. The first approach is...master thesis 2011

Alvarez Cabrera, A.A. (author)Design activities, including control design, are becoming increasingly difficult due to a corresponding increase in product and product development complexity. Model-based (or driven) engineering, development and design have become common concepts related to modern complex product development practices. However, it is argued here that currently...doctoral thesis 2011

Beirao, J.N. (author), Nourian Ghadikolaee, P. (author), Van Walderveen, B. (author)Marshall (2005) developed the concept of characteristic structure of a street network as a characteristic set of indicators extracted from the street network through a process which he called “route structure analysis”. In this paper we propose an integrated process for street network generation and route structure analysis embedded in a...conference paper 2011

Fumarola, M. (author), Van Staalduinen, J.P. (author), Verbraeck, A.

Designing simulation games are the result of creative thinking and planning, but often not the result of a rigorously applied design method. Design...journal article 2011

Jauslin, D. (author), Skjonsberg, M. (author)Contemporary architecture is increasingly influenced by the concept of landscape, and this is particularly the case in the Netherlands. Like at many other places, a new mindset is emerging, transforming the core values of the disciplines of architecture and urbanism with the notion of the organization of architectural space as a landscape....book 2012
