Çubukçuoglu, C. (author)Hospitals are known as functionally complex buildings in various ways, namely due to their non-trivial spatial connectivity requirements. A spatial configuration has an impact on human behavior, human movement patterns and should match with the operational logic of the buildings. In hospitals, there are several typical problems that can be...doctoral thesis 2023

Vomvas, Zisis (author)Information systems are increasingly deployed by healthcare organizations to support decision makers and users of hospitals. As a result, digital twins have recently emerged as an information system with promising application prospects. However, the limited deployment of them leads to the research gap that is addressed by the present research,...master thesis 2022

Karaosmanoğlu, Eda (author)In Turkey, roughly 3000 children and adolescents are diagnosed with cancer every year (Kebudi, 2012). Although there are different types of pediatric cancers, their trajectory is similar and filled with various physical and psychosocial challenges for the patients and their families. Moreover, cancer usually causes a drastic life change for the...master thesis 2022

Gangapersad, Ravish (author)In this paper, we want to create a prediction model for target attainment and a scoring system based on these models. The Random Forest model, Logistic Regression model, and Naive Bayes model are employed to achieve this. Classification trees and predictors from the random forest model are used to create the scoring system. The theory behind...master thesis 2022

Koopman, Sophie (author)This research aims to develop en apply a new approach towards dealing with heritage in the built environment. By taking the Royal London Hospital area and the Former Outpatient Department within this domain as a case study, tools to connect to specific layers of the context that were found in the research are implied. This is in contrast to the...master thesis 2022

Cornelissen, Lisa (author)The transformations the healthcare sector is undergoing can be divided into three types of changes; gradual change, sudden change and expected change. The ageing population represents the gradual change. The ageing population brings an increased demand for care, while also an increasing need for cost control and a decrease in available capacity...master thesis 2022

Le Creurer, Max (author)In the Netherlands, there is a large amount of buildings that are outdated according to today’s standards. Those existing buildings represent about 70% of the building stock in 2050. Updating these buildings in terms of functionality but mostly in terms of sustainability is therefore a highly relevant task at hand. To quote Prof. Mauro Overend...master thesis 2022

Çubukçuoglu, C. (author), Nourian, Pirouz (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author), Tasgetiren, M. Fatih (author)The paper proposes a generative design workflow for three major hospital layout planning steps to satisfy multiplex configurational requirements. The initial step is stacking through clustering functional spaces into floor plans, for which a spectral method is presented. Subsequently, a novel simultaneous process of zoning and routing is...journal article 2022
