This study starts with a literature review on SLS-printed PA12 and how its ductility is influenced in the printing process as well as by post processing. The rest of the study focuses on one particular post processing technique, heat treatment under isostatic pressure, including an experimental phase …

There is a clear demand for a collaborative knowledge-sharing on climate adaptation and mitigation. The aim of most climate adaptation platforms is (inter)national knowledge exchange and raising awareness about climate adaptation in urban areas and promote solutions such as Nature-based solutions (NBS) …

Challenging behaviour, such as aggression towards oneself, others, or objects, arises in interaction with the environment and may prevent individuals from participating in society and compromise their quality of life (QoL). Literature suggests that architects can contribute to prevention, by influencing …

The aim of this research was to find out in how far the Netherlands could learn from Sweden regarding the use of manure, in order to create awareness within the equine sector on sustainable solutions. The number of horses in Europe exceeds 5 million and keeps increasing, therefore contributes to greenhouse …

Article only: CC-BY licence. As a consequence of climate change and urbanization, many cities will have to deal with more flooding and extreme heat stress. This paper presents a framework to maximize the effectiveness of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) for flood risk reduction and thermal comfort enhancement. …

The Nieuw Statendam is equipped with a program called ENIRAM. This program calculates the optimal engine configuration and load expressed in revolutions per minute of the propellers. The issue with this program is that it only looks at the main power plants and does not take the waste heat recovery system …

The Power to Flex project aims to promote the development of storage possibilities from sustainable energy sources. Hydrogen is opted to be a feasible energy carrier, which can also be stored for prolonged times without further losses and can be transformed into electricity and heat when needed. Producing …

ClimateCafé is a field education concept involving dierent fields of science and practice for capacity building in climate change adaptation. This concept is applied on the eco-city of Augustenborg in Malmö, Sweden, where Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) were implemented in 1998. ClimateCafé Malmö evaluated …
