The world of electric mobility and charging infrastructure has accelerated in recent years: from a start-up to a mature market. During the last decade, researchers at Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences have contributed to making the rollout and use of charging infrastructure smarter. By analysing …

Evaluation of the hydrological performance of grassed swales usually needs long-term monitoring data. At present, suitable techniques for simulating the hydrological performance using limited monitoring data are not available. Therefore, current study aims to investigate the relationship between saturated …

The capacity of the newly inaugurated airport terminal in Mexico City, opened in 2022, has sparked debates regarding its adequacy to accommodate future demand. To address this critical question, our study employs simulation-based analysis to assess the terminal's true potential. By simulating various …

This research contributes to understanding and shaping systems for OFMSW separation at urban Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs, such as offices, shops and service providers). Separating SMEs’ organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) is both an opportunity and a serious challenge for the transition …

This research is conducted within the company context of Grosso Moda to investigate how the accuracy of digital garment simulation of suiting styles can be improved so that the product development process can replace physical samples with digital ones to improve efficiency while reducing time and costs. Suiting …

The European Commission aims for a full circular economy (CE), an economy that aims to reuse all resources in 2050. CE is a promising way to increase welfare and wellbeing while decreasing environmental footprints. Industrial symbiosis, in which companies exchange residuals for resource efficiency, is …

The relentless growth in Mexico City’s aviation traffic has inevitably strained capacity development of its airport, raising the dilemma between the possible solutions. In the present study, Mexico’s Multi-Airport System is subjected to analysis by means of multi-model simulation, focusing on the capacity-demand …

This paper evaluates a design procedure which is able to scale one-dimensional quadratic-residue diffusers, with integrated Helmholtz resonators. These acoustic structures can be tuned to room modes while fitting within a specified volume. An algorithmic solver is used to control geometric parameters …

Drinking water utilities are responsible for providing safe drinking water. As water directly impacts public health, water utilities follow stringent water treatment standards and processes. However to keep pace with the dynamic environment and tackle challenges such as water stress, water pollution, …

In Eastern Africa, increasing climate variability and changing socioeconomic conditions are exacerbating the frequency and intensity of drought disasters. Droughts pose a severe threat to food security in this region, which is characterized by a large dependency on smallholder rain-fed agriculture and …
