Wiarda, M.J. (author), Janssen, Matthijs J. (author), Coenen, Tom B.J. (author), Doorn, N. (author)Governance lies at the heart of instigating, steering, and creating the conditions for mission-oriented transitions that potentially help resolve some of our grand societal challenges. In doing so, policymakers will need to navigate both epistemic and normative considerations to develop, implement, and evaluate missions responsibly. A number...journal article 2024

Shisodia, A.S. (author)Urban areas generate high demand for urban areas to accommodate a broader range of functions associated with growth, given the rising rate of urbanization with more than two-thirds of the human population in 2050 projected to be city-dwellers. As a result, urban areas have been undergoing vigorous spatial, social, and ecological transitions....journal article 2023

Barahona Lopez, Marina (author)Current manufacturing techniques in the aviation industry result in a number of two-dimensional surface irregularities (e.g. panel joints, seals, seams) which can lead to an increase in skin friction due to premature boundary layer transition. Panel joints are...master thesis 2022

Ponssen, Jasmijn (author)The climate crisis will require far-stretching changes to our urban systems, also called a transition. However, the direction in which our society will transition is still deeply uncertain. To become less vulnerable, cities and urban areas need to increase their adaptive capacity, establishing an evolutionarily resilient region. Delta cities in...master thesis 2022

Beyond the urgency of rethinking XX-century urbanization characterized by endless structural expansion strategy, we need to engage urban systems by means of emerging concepts of adaptability and systemic transitions due to climate change effects. Emission reduction and spatial compactness, reuse and recycle, flexibility and complex balances have...book 2022

van Heeswijk, Bas (author)This thesis focuses on the transition from multichannel to omnichannel retailing. To provide insight into this, the current challenges and related indicators are identified by means of a multiple case study. In addition, a theoretical framework for the omnichannel retailing concept is designed. On the one hand, this will help to increase the...master thesis 2021

Hoek, Dennis (author)In the Netherlands, it is envisaged that hydrogen will play a crucial role in the energy transition. Especially in this heavy industry, hydrogen will become essential to make this sector sustainable. In general, three types of hydrogen are used: grey, blue, and green hydrogen. This study focuses on green hydrogen, as it is produced without CO2...master thesis 2021

Parmar, Akshit (author)This paper aims to provide insights into the role of ‘Entrepreneurial Behaviour’ in stimulating the transition of the Built Environment from a linear economic model to a Circular Economy. Implementation of the circular principles is riddled with regulatory, cultural, financial, and other sector-specific barriers that stall transition efforts and...master thesis 2021

Parlar, Yasemin (author)This thesis will examine how time-based design features in funerary architecture are manifested as architectural narratives, focusing on the experience of the visitor as they pass through the space. Accepting the transition period, from Arnold van Gennep’s Rites of Passage, as the most prominent of the funerary rites, temporal elements in...student report 2021

Ampe, K.V.J. (author), Paredis, Erik (author), Asveld, L. (author), Osseweijer, P. (author), Block, Thomas (author)Environmental problems are usually not tackled with path-departing policies but rather with incrementally adjusted or unchanged policies. One way to address incremental change is the policy feedback approach, which initially focussed on self-reinforcing feedback and path-dependency. Today, self-undermining feedback is also increasingly being...journal article 2021

Swuste, P.H.J.J. (author), van Nunen, K.L.L. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Khakzad, N. (author)Major accidents in Western countries, receiving a lot of media attention in the 1970s, are starting point for research into internal and external domino effects in the chemical and petrochemical sectors and clusters. Initially, these reports are published by government institutions and government-related research centers. With the upcoming...book chapter 2021

Hoogkamer, S.S. (author)The project shows the potential of the transition space, by mediating between the individual “the body” and their surroundings. A thesis critical of architecture based on perception and behaviour. The project is a case study located in the city centre of Rotterdam "Kruisplein area" to show the potential of a place in the city which is currently...master thesis 2020

Zwagers, Willem (author)Many resources are becoming depleted, and waste is a global issue. For accomplishing sustainable growth, the European Commission set the objective for achieving a circular economy in 2050. Rijkswaterstaat pushed this ambition even further, wanting to be circular in 2030. In the province Noord-Holland, the municipalities Bergen, Uitgeest,...master thesis 2020

Rijpkema, Sjoerd (author)Young families are leaving the city, moving to outskirts, and surrounding municipalities. There seems to be a mismatch, in an increasing amount families cannot find a dwelling or think that living in the city is not suitable for children. This is an undesirable trend, as children determine to a large extent the support of many facilities, make...master thesis 2020

Thomson, Richard (author)Globalisation and global urbanisation are reshaping our world. Life in Central Places is expanding; life in remote territories is vanishing. For centuries, subsistence agriculture sustained rural communities the world over; that raison d’être has now largely vanished. Cities mine the territory for fuel, material resources, food and even...master thesis 2020

Westerbeek, Sven (author)The laminar-turbulent transition of boundary layers is accompanied by an increase in friction drag. Laminar airfoils are a promising technology to reduce the emission of greenhouse gasses caused by the aerospace industry. The transition scenario in airliners is dominated by stationary crossflow vortices whose evolution is strongly nonlinear....master thesis 2020

den Dekker, Pieter (author)In this thesis, I develop and evaluate a demand-side approach to transition from an intermittent to a continuous water supply using a district metered areas approach in Accra, Ghana, an urban metroplex of 4.0 million persons in western Africa. Intermittent water supply (IWS) is inherently inefficient. These systems foment health hazards and are...master thesis 2020

(author)The German Energiewende is a deliberate transformation of an established industrial economy towards a nearly CO2-free energy system accompanied by a phase out of nuclear energy. Its governance requires knowledge on how to steer the transition from the existing status quo to the target situation (transformation knowledge). The energy system is,...journal article 2020
