Wabeke, Ronne (author)Ecology as an equal user of the city <br/>The city is designed to be human-centred. In the multispecies urban environment humans take on roles of management and ownership over flora and fauna. This leaves the richness and biodiversity of urban habitats in the hands of humans (Denters, 2020). Ecology is often treated as a second class citizen and...master thesis 2024

Gürsan, C. (author), de Gooyert, V. (author), de Bruijne, M.L.C. (author), Raaijmakers, J. (author)District heating systems are considered a feasible heating alternative to replace natural gas to mitigate emissions in cities. However, urban transitions are very complex because energy systems often operate in densely populated areas, which gives rise to all kinds of interdependencies in cities. These interdependencies can result in...journal article 2024

Stoimenova, N. (author)Traditionally, the AI field has focused on providing answers in domains like chess, translation, protein folding, and item recommendations. These AI systems have a clear objectives and outcomes that can be easily classified as correct or incorrect. However, once such systems face the complexity of social contexts, they start to produce...doctoral thesis 2023

Loopik, Hugo (author)This paper addresses the research question: “How can a human-robot team achieve co-learning, and interdependence in physically embodied tasks?”<br/>A method has been developed that enables a human-robot team to co-learn the handover of an object from the robot to the human. Five design requirements were composed to address the challenges of...master thesis 2023

Kim, Cherin (author)As autonomous systems are increasingly integrated as a team member for collaborative tasks, trust in human-agent teams (HAT) becomes crucial to foster success. In many real world scenarios, trust violations are expected, thus demanding the use of trust repair strategies to restore damaged trust. Previous research has shown that expressing regret...bachelor thesis 2023

Marcu, Alexandra (author)Intelligent agents are increasingly required to engage in collaboration with humans in the context of human-agent teams (HATs) to achieve shared goals. Interdependence is a fundamental concept in teamwork. It enables humans and robots to leverage their capabilities and collaboratively work towards a shared goal, fostering the development of...bachelor thesis 2023

Tanahashi, Kanta (author)Nowadays, Human Autonomy Teams (HATs) are incorporated in many fields, where humans and autonomous agents work collaboratively to combine their capabilities with the ultimate goal of performing tasks more efficiently. In such environments, it is imperative to sustain a high level of trust between the agents as collaboration is not possible...bachelor thesis 2023

van der Leun, Joanna (author)In advanced capitalist societies, nature has become more dependent on human influence. But some species are living in closer proximity than others. Including the Lesser Black-backed Gull. Throughout the 20th century, human activities have led to changes in the environment of this “synanthropic” species, a species living in close proximity to...master thesis 2023

LI, CHANGLIN (author)There is a rising concern on the sustainability of Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) desalination. In this study, Multi-criteria Decision-making (MCDM) is applied to compare the sustainability performance of various ZLD scenarios, which is part of a Strong Sustainability (SS) assessment of desalination. ZLD desalination systems are considered to be...master thesis 2023

Røsok, O.P. (author), de Bruijne, M.L.C. (author), Veeneman, Wijnand (author)The interdependencies between infrastructures are growing. Engineering decision making that earlier was largely confined to a specific sector now requires more and more understanding of how systems interact: a system-of-systems perspective. The article analyzes the effect of that added complexity in a single case study in de Zuid-As, Amsterdam,...journal article 2023

Gürsan, C. (author), de Gooyert, V. (author), de Bruijne, M.L.C. (author), Rouwette, E. (author)Cities are increasingly recognized as potential motors of sustainability transitions. These transitions build on existing as well as new infrastructures, and these infrastructures mutually influence each other in many ways, a phenomenon known as infrastructure interdependencies. These infrastructure interdependencies have significant...journal article 2023

Designing resilient and economically viable water distribution systems: A Multi-dimensional approachCassottana, Beatrice (author), Balakrishnan, Srijith (author), Aydin, N.Y. (author), Sansavini, Giovanni (author)Enhancing the resilience of critical infrastructure systems requires substantial investment and entails trade-offs between environmental and economic benefits. To this aim, we propose a methodological framework that combines resilience and economic analyses and assesses the economic viability of alternative resilience designs for a Water...journal article 2023

van Engelshoven, Samuel (author)The river Rhine is Europe’s economic powerhouse. Without the Rhine, the Ruhr area and the port of Rotterdam wouldn’t have developed into the economically leading industrial regions they are today. The economic power of the Rhine comes forward from the ability of humans to control the river. By rectifying and canalizing the river and constructing...master thesis 2022

Schriever, David (author)Food waste remains a large problem globally, not only in the light of global greenhouse gas emissions, but also in the light of decreasing resource availability. Research in this area has so far mainly focused on behavioral factors influencing production of food waste, while the formal and informal institutions that relate to the management of...master thesis 2022

Juárez Pastor, Lidia (author)India has experienced rapid industrialisation which has led to a significant increase in consumption and, in turn, in waste generation. The informal waste sector (IWS) plays a key role in managing consumer waste. However, this sector is subject to negative social and economic conditions and its integration in formal systems remains unsolved....master thesis 2022

Verhagen, R.S. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Tielman, M.L. (author)Humans and robots are increasingly working together in human-robot teams. Teamwork requires communication, especially when interdependence between team members is high. In previous work, we identified a conceptual difference between sharing what you are doing (i.e., being transparent) and why you are doing it (i.e., being explainable). Although...journal article 2022
