Veluwenkamp, H.M. (author), van den Hoven, M.J. (author)Politicians and engineers are increasingly realizing that values are important in the development of technological artefacts. What is often overlooked is that different conceptualizations of these abstract values lead to different design-requirements. For example, designing social media platforms for deliberative democracy sets us up for...journal article 2023

Dokter, Giliam (author), Boks, Casper (author), Rahe, Ulrike (author), Jansen, B. (author), Hagejärd, Sofie (author), Thuvander, Liane (author)To bridge the gap between the conceptualisation and implementation of circular value propositions, recent research efforts have focused on linking design-driven approaches with circular-oriented innovation. Such approaches can facilitate iterative processes that emphasise co-creation, prototyping, and real-life experimentation, ultimately...journal article 2023

Nguyen-Phuoc, Duy Quy (author), Nguyen, Nguyen An Ngoc (author), Tran, Phuong Thi Kim (author), Pham, Huong Giang (author), Oviedo-Trespalacios, O. (author)Motorcycle riding is the principal mode of travel in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Motorcycle-based transport is regarded as highly problematic today due to reliance on fossil-based fuels, which contributes to climate change. Additionally, emissions from fuel combustion release air pollutants in urban areas, resulting in public...journal article 2023

van Grunsven, J.B. (author), Stone, T.W. (author), Marin, L. (author)It is crucial for engineers to anticipate the socio-ethical impacts of emerging technologies. Such acts of anticipation are thoroughly normative and should be cultivated in engineering ethics education. In this paper we ask: ‘how do we anticipate the socio-ethical implications of emerging technologies responsibly?’ And ‘how can such responsible...journal article 2023

den Hartigh, Erik (author), Stolwijk, Claire C.M. (author), Ortt, J.R. (author), Punter, L. Matthijs (author)We analyze organizational configurations of digital platforms for manufacturing according to two dimensions: platform functions and platform types. Platform functions refer to the organizational functions of platforms: manufacturing, data sharing, market making, and innovation. Platform types refer to a typology of how platforms are organized:...journal article 2023

Gemser, Gerda (author), Calabretta, G. (author), Quint, Eric (author)Little is known about how design leaders foster design excellence “at scale” within large organizations. To bridge this gap, this article reports on interviews with 59 senior design leaders. Using a paradox perspective to frame the findings uncovers major challenges when leading design teams inside large organizations. It also identifies five...journal article 2023

Romero-Muñoz, Sara (author), Alméstar, Manuel (author), Sánchez-Chaparro, Teresa (author), Muñoz Sanz, V. (author)The introduction of forests in cities has been an observable trend in recent years, with planned forest management projects proliferating around the world. The fact that many urban forests in the public space are traditionally managed by top-down bureaucratic procedures and guided by expert knowledge raises questions about whether green areas...journal article 2023

Giovanardi, Matteo (author), Konstantinou, T. (author), Pollo, Riccardo (author), Klein, T. (author)In the façade sector, the ecological and circular transition requires the adoption of new business models that exploit the value of the material as much as possible. In this context, the Internet of Things (IoT) is identified as a potential innovation driver for the widespread use of circular approaches. The aim of the paper is to clarify the...journal article 2023

Heezen, Marjolein (author), Pesch, U. (author), Correljé, A. (author), Van Zoonen, Liesbet (author), Ten Kate, Janneke (author)Smart cities are proposed as a solution for problems of urbanization. Technologies associated with smart cities involve the monitoring of human activities and resulting data streams. These technologies affect certain public values, which may be subject to change depending on their sociotechnical development. This paper presents a method that...journal article 2023

Lukovics, Miklós (author), Nagy, Benedek (author), Roosenboom-Kwee, Z. (author), Yaghmaei, E. (author)In this paper, we use an economic approach to demonstrate why ‘rational’ businesses are not likely to implement responsible innovation (RI) unless it is economically profitable. The lack of sufficient insights into economic impacts of RI is often induced by information asymmetry. Such asymmetry would hinder consumers who would otherwise be...journal article 2023

van Haersma Buma, Bernhard N.D. (author), Peretto, Marco (author), Matar, Ziad M. (author), van de Kaa, G. (author)This paper focuses on the battle for a dominant design for renewable hydrogen electrolysis in which the designs, alkaline and proton exchange membrane, compete for dominance. First, a literature review is performed to determine the most relevant factors that influence technology dominance. Following that, a Best Worst Method analysis is...journal article 2023

Korthals Altes, W.K. (author)Acquiring access to land is an important issue for new entrants into farming. Traditionally, the succession of farms is within the family; market transactions are geared towards the enlargement of running farms. Policies and institutions have been built to facilitate this process. Current challenges of climate change, resource scarcity,...journal article 2023

Baldassarre, B.R. (author), Calabretta, G. (author)The circular economy aims to decouple economic growth from negative environmental impacts. To achieve this goal, circular economy concepts and policies must be implemented in practice by organizations through new circular business models. However, organizations often fail to implement circular business models on the market at scale. This is a...journal article 2023

van Boeijen, A.G.C. (author), Schifferstein, Hendrik N.J. (author)Designers hope that their innovations will be adopted by the people they are designed for. How well their designs align with consumers’ cultural contexts is a key determinant of whether they are accepted or rejected. This is especially<br/>important for food solutions, as eating habits are deeply rooted in local cultures. However, academic...journal article 2023

(author), Cipolina, Andrea (author), Micale, Giorgio (author), Xevgenos, Dimitris (author)This work explores resource recovery coupled to seawater desalination in small islands. As small islands depend on seawater desalination for water access, they make an excellent ground for exploring the trade-offs associated to resource recovery, like potential economic gains, energy use, and environmental impacts. Here, we investigated these...journal article 2023

Mannak, Remco S. (author), Markus, Arjan (author), Meeus, Marius T.H. (author), Raab, Jörg (author), Smit, A.C. (author)In this study, we explore the relationship between inter-organizational network dynamics and innovation outcomes. We focus on node turnover and argue that both cluster and broker dynamics can range from low (stable) to high (volatile), resulting in differentiated outcomes. The data comprises 318 consortium members participating in 104 R&D...journal article 2023
