Bij de Vaate, I. (author), Slobbe, D.C. (author), Verlaan, M. (author)Multi-mission satellite altimetry data have been used to study the spatial and temporal variability in global storm surge water levels. This was done by means of a time-dependent extreme value analysis applied to the monthly maximum detided water levels. To account for the limited temporal resolution of the satellite data, the data were first...journal article 2024

van Staveren, D. (author), Arkesteijn, M.H. (author), den Heijer, A.C. (author)Purpose: Corporate real estate management (CREM) is complex due to an increasing number of real estate (RE) added values and the tensions between them. RE managers are faced with trade-offs: to choose a higher performance for one added value at the cost of another. CREM research mainly deals with trade-offs in a hypothetical sense, without...journal article 2024

Fernández Pérez, A. (author), Haffner, M.E.A. (author), Elsinga, M.G. (author)Despite persistent housing affordability issues, energy policy and housing renovation are usually investigated separately from housing costs other than energy. Researchers have examined the financial viability of renovation attending to building conditions and the socio-economic characteristics of their occupants. However, the distributional...journal article 2024

Fokkink, R.J. (author), de Munnik, J.C. (author)We extend the notion of boycotts between players in cooperative games to boycotts between coalitions. We prove that convex games offer a proper setting for studying these games. Boycotts have a heterogeneous effect. Individual players that are targeted by many-on-one boycotts suffer most, while non-participating players may actually benefit...journal article 2024

Yarveisy, R. (author), Khan, Faisal (author), Abbassi, Rouzbeh (author)This paper presents a data-driven approach to predict the pipelines’ corrosion-induced Burst failure. In this approach, different aspects of pit growth progression and spatial distribution of pits are simulated. The proposed approach takes advantage of population characteristics to model these aspects of the degradation paths for each pipe...journal article 2024

Raja, A.A. (author), Pinson, Pierre (author), Kazempour, Jalal (author), Grammatico, S. (author)In many areas of industry and society, including energy, healthcare, and logistics, agents collect vast amounts of data that are deemed proprietary. These data owners extract predictive information of varying quality and relevance from data depending on quantity, inherent information content, and their own technical expertise. Aggregating...journal article 2024

Buijsman, S.N.R. (author)With the widespread use of artificial intelligence, it becomes crucial to provide information about these systems and how they are used. Governments aim to disclose their use of algorithms to establish legitimacy and the EU AI Act mandates forms of transparency for all high-risk and limited-risk systems. Yet, what should the standards for...journal article 2024

Mioch, T. (author), Aldewereld, Huib (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author)Fire fighters operate in a dangerous, dynamic, and complex environment. Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems can contribute to improve fire fighters' situation awareness and decision-making. However, the introduction of AI systems needs to be done responsibly, taking (human) values into account, especially as the situation in which fire fighters...conference paper 2024
