Het veranderende klimaat is vooral in binnensteden zichtbaar door de hoge mate van verstening die hier te vinden is. Juist op deze plekken zijn er weinig oplossingen voor hittestress en wateroverlast mogelijk, omdat de ruimte boven en onder de grond vaak beperkt is. In dit onderzoek werkten de Hanzehogeschool …

Nowadays, Nature-Based Solutions (NBSs) are developing as innovative multifunctional tools to maximize urban ecosystem services such as storm water preservation, reduction of runoff and flood protection, groundwater pollution prevention, biodiversity enhancement, and microclimate control. Gdańsk is one …

Onderzoek met publieke en particuliere partijen, door vijf hogescholen in tien wijken, heeft geresulteerd in nieuwe kennis over meten, beleven en doen ten aanzien van klimaatadaptie. Klimaatadaptatie blijkt nog beperkt te leven onder inwoners. Toch eindigde dit onderzoek met honderden concrete oplossingen …

The in 2000 established Water Framework Directive urges Member states to realize and maintain chemically clean and ecologically healthy water systems by 2027. Water Board Scheldestromen manages the water system of Zeeland which consists of mainly brackish waters. These types of waters have a variety …

Waterschap Scheldestromen is carrying out a particularly innovative project named Multiflexmeter (MFM), of which the objective is to look for ways to measure the soil resistance . This means some properties and characteristics of water needs to be researched on, such as the salinity and the corresponding …

From the very beginnings of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, water management has been a topic of prime importance. This subject has taken even greater priority in recent times due to climate change and the consequent erratic weather and sea-level rise. The measures taken to ensure water safety have been …

The aim of this research was to find out if Mycelium has the ability to replace stones in a roman arch bridge structure, by setting up the appropriate laboratory tests and by conducting a desk research to help identifying the best substrate out of the three substrates picked that will produce mycelium …

This project is about completing the ring of Antwerp from West to North around the city. This project aims to improve the connectivity around the city and the port of Antwerp. A …

Currently, the cutting forces themselves are only roughly estimated by a Specific Cutting Energy assumption. Throughout literature, many assumptions are made about different parameters, the condition in which the cutting process is taking place, and in specific cases, some parameters are not even considered …
