De inrichting van het Nederlandse landschap moet wederom op de schop. Dit keer niet om de delta door ontginning bewoonbaar te maken of door ruilverkaveling efficënter in te richten voor de landbouw, maar om het land in deze tijd van klimaatverandering en bevolkingsgroei bestendiger en leefbaarder te maken voor mens, flora en fauna. Door...

Nowadays, low-duty CNC machines use the conventional belt-driven system, which works well for relatively small machines. However this design brings several complications the engineer has to account for: creep; backlash; complex assembly and more importantly the limited stiffness of the belt. This limited stiffness results in belt stretch and...

Microcatheters are used for endovascular diagnosis and treatment purposes. Variations of this minimally invasive instrument, accompanied by guidewires, are manipulated through the vasculature towards the target of the intervention. The human vascular anatomy can however present complex pathways towards a target, for example a distal tumor....

Despite the museum playing a central role in society as public centre of collective memory, artefacts are dogmatically presented in highly introverted "white cubes". In response, the<i> Leiden Civic Museum</i> relies on a strong relationship between "content" and "context" in order to both reassure its collection of societal relevance, as well...

The present research performed a design exploration of fast ferry catamarans with hard chined demihulls sailing in irregular head waves, to analyse the influence of the demihull shape (without appendages) on wet deck slamming, and identify the geometrical properties and their trends to reduce it. Wet deck slamming is a phenomenon known to cause...

In the current breakwater design process, not all feasible concepts can be explored due to time constraints. However, designers are also influenced by breakwaters constructed near, or at the same location as their breakwater project. But also conservative assumptions influence the breakwater design process, for instance, regarding the wave...

Background Despite its high demand, prostheses are too often abandoned because they fail to meet the main requirements control, comfort and cosmesis. Body-powered hook prostheses provide good control due to their proprioceptive feedback but are in general not efficient nor appealing. The WILMER group has developed an appealing voluntary-opening...

For decades the space domain has been used for military purposes. When enemy forces establish counter-space capabilities, this could become a weakness. Responsive Space is a concept that focuses on replenishing lost capabilities and/or granting additional capabilities from space assets quickly. The continuous miniaturization of technologies has...

At the moment design is taught in primary education. Teachers often use the design cycle which consists of six phases: 1) Exploring &amp; formulating the problem, 2) Generating &amp; selecting ideas, 3) Generating &amp; selecting concepts, 4) Building prototypes, 5) Testing &amp; optimising and 6) Presenting. There are several tools available...
