DEME Group, a leader in offshore energy and marine infrastructure, seeks to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of cable burial operations for offshore wind farms through the development of a user-friendly trencher mobility model. This research addresses the limitations of existing models and provides …

This study presents a methodology designed to optimize various parameters of each access point within a Multiple-Input Single-Output (MISO) Visible Light Communication (VLC) system. The primary objective is to enhance both power and spectral efficiencies. A MISO-VLC model is presented based on experimental …

Purpose Engineering knowledge continuity is crucial for the life cycle management of long-lived and complex assets, such as nuclear plants, locks and storm surge barriers. At the storm surge barriers in the Netherlands, engineering knowledge continuity is not yet fully assured, despite long-standing …

Energy conservation is crucial in wireless ad hoc sensor network design to increase network lifetime. Since communication consumes a major part of the energy used by a sensor node, efficient communication is important. Topology control aims at achieving more efficient communication by dropping links …

Multi-faceted tasks can be completed in a linear start-to-finish fashion, or by completing the different facets parallel to each other. Either way, at some point the final additions and adjustments are made such that all the pieces fit together, and the task is completed properly. For example, baking …

Er is veel openbare geografische data beschikbaar in Nederland die tijdens de ontwerpfase van bouwprojecten kan worden gebruikt om 3D-contextmodellen en 2D-situaties te creëren. Het gebruik van deze data binnen Revit is een belangrijke stap om een allesomvattende omgeving te creëren binnen een BIM-omgeving. …

Environmental values are becoming increasingly important in restoration of historical buildings, while energy interventions can seriously damage historical qualities. Cultural-historical values and environmental values are often considered difficult to commensurate, with energy engineers and heritage …

''New technologies are advancing at an unprecedentedly accelerating pace over the years. The distance humanity has covered in 2200 years, from the Antikythera mechanism of ancient Greek world, the oldest known analogue computer, to the 4-bit first microprocessor in 1971, is not even comparable to the …

A webinar arranged by Engineers Ireland co hosted by the Water & Environment Society and the Roads and Transportation SocietyRainfall Run Off: The Dutch Experience

This text reflects on the recent Landscape Makers Congress co-organised by Studio Inscape as a design intervention seeking to re-politicise the South-Western Delta region (SWD) of the Netherlands. Like many coastal regions around the world, the Dutch coast (including the SWD) is facing serious challenges …
