Erkens, S.M.J.G. (author), Scarpas, A. (author)With the increasing drain on natural resources and resulting aim to reduce the environmental impact of road engineering, the use of reclaimed asphalt in fresh asphalt becomes more and more important. Despite the experience in using RAC, there are still many questions regarding the effect of RAC on the technical and environmental performance of...book 2013

Qiu, J. (author), Schlangen, H.E.J.G. (author), Van de Ven, M.F.C. (author), Shirazi, M. (author)Reclaimed Asphalt (RA) is one of the largest fractions of raw materials used in road construction today. Probably over 90% of the total RA in the Netherlands is being reused in new asphalt constructions. RA contains aggregates coated with very hard bitumen (penetration grade of 10-20). During service, the bituminous binder loses its flexibility...conference paper 2013

Varveri, Aikaterini (author), Avgerinopoulos, S. (author), Scarpas, Athanasios (author)This paper investigates the moisture susceptibility of European asphalt mixtures (SMA) containing reclaimed asphalt (RA) and warm mix (WMA) additives. Test sections of a typical SMA mixture have been laid, from which cylindrical samples were cored and utilized for laboratory testing. Four variants of the SMA mixture were prepared; a control HMA...conference paper 2016

Tang, X. (author), Schulte, F. (author)Storage space management in bulk terminals has become an important focus for research and practical operation due to the increasing demand for bulk cargo and limited storage space in stockyards. The study of storage space management in dry bulk terminals is less thorough and comprehensive, and the existing research investigates the storage...conference paper 2023

Sales Ortells, H. (author)Water features in urban areas are increasingly perceived by citizens as a positive element because they provide aesthetic quality to the neighbourhood and offer recreation opportunities. They may also lead, however, to increased health risks due to the potential presence of waterborne pathogens. Exposure of humans to pathogens in urban water...doctoral thesis 2015

Mohajeri, M. (author)Hot mix asphalt recycling has become common practice all over the world since the 1970s because of the crisis in oil prices. In the Netherlands, hot recycling has advanced to such an extent that in most of the mixtures more than 50% of reclaimed asphalt (RA) is allowed. These mixtures with such a high RA content are produced in a batch plant to...doctoral thesis 2015

Van den Bergh, W. (author), Van de Ven, M.F.C. (author)For asphalt pavement design in Belgium, healing is taken into account as a standard shift factor, representing the effect of rest periods between loadings of traffic. Because nowadays Reclaimed Asphalt Aggregate (RA) is widely used in hot mixtures, a new validation of the healing factor is needed. Given the lack of test results and a standard...journal article 2012

Mousavi Rad, Sina (author), Kamboozia, Neda (author), Anupam, K. (author), Saed, Seyed Ataollah (author)First, porous asphalt (PA) pavement possesses a lower strength and lifetime compared to typical dense-grade asphalt mixtures due to its large empty space structure. Second, PA pavements' fatigue life and durability are affected significantly by climate factors; the two most critical factors being aging conditions and moisture actions. Third,...journal article 2022

Mielczarek, Z.I. (author)The Upper Silesian agglomeration is an industrial area in southern Poland, currently facing numerous issues rooted in its legacy as a formerly prosperous coal mining industry. The rise of the industrial empire, which emerged in the beginning of the 19th century, made this coal-rich area a boom region which, being exhausted today, makes it in...master thesis 2016

Kok, Jelmer (author)To reach the ambition of becoming Europe’s Preferred Airport, Schiphol has set targets for the satisfaction rating of various aspects within the passenger journey. However, some of these aspects are scoring below target. One of these aspects that weighs heavy on the overall assessment is the (process of) baggage reclaim. Aside from the actual...master thesis 2018

Baggio, Gianpaolo (author)This thesis is a study on the cracking behaviour of road bases constructed with cement bound reclaimed asphalt (also known in the Netherlands as AGRAC). It is decided to focus on this material because of the few researches available on the topic although the material being widely applied, at least in the Netherlands. The<br/>goal of adding...master thesis 2017

Sun, D. (author)The architectural project is set in Zeeburg island in the city of Amsterdam which will develop as a metropolitan region in the next 20 years and under this process of urbanization and population densification, the reduction of habitats for local flora and fauna can be easily foreseen now. So the purpose of this project is to establish new...master thesis 2014

Marone, M. (author)The main research in question regards what is Bricolage in architecture. This topic is strikingly valuable to contemporary demand, given the fact that there is a considerable amount of buildings and building elements that do not carry a value that is strong enough to be considered historical or cultural. In fact, often the meaning of Bricolage...master thesis 2020

Aardoom, Koen (author)To stick to climate change targets and reduce global carbon emissions, the building sector needs to adopt a circular economy. In the steel sector, reuse or elements can reduce carbon emissions which are created in today's steel scrap recycling practices. This thesis contributes to closing the knowledge gap on design, costs, and environmental...master thesis 2023

Bouwens, Noortje (author)Global awareness has arisen for sustainable development to reduce the burden of the building sector on the earth’s ecosystems. One of these sustainable developments is the transition towards a 100% circular building economy with high-quality reuse. However, the sector has insufficient knowledge and understanding about the possibilities and...master thesis 2022

Stegeman, Angelique (author)Bosnia and Herzegovina is a country that has endured many wars, through many different rules. The Yugoslav wars from 1991-1996 still linger in Mostar today, as we find a ‘divided city’, which is mostly enforced through institutions that ethnically divide public buildings. At the same time, citizens find this unnecessary and consider Mostar as ...master thesis 2019

Chen, Ruixin (author)My project departs from the 2001 Operational Plan for the historic center of Genova. Under the trend of urban regeneration, the historic centre accumulates and generates many conflicts with the outgrowth of the city towards it fringes, which represents a complex and active boundary condition. Additionally, the degradation of industrial...master thesis 2018
