This report explores what the best way is to visualize the modelling workflow of a digital twin. The digital twin is a digital replica of a physical plant and can be beneficial for building, maintaining, operating and training. The visualization helps to convince parties such as the management department …

Introduction In the harbor of Zierikzee there is a strong tidal influence. The difference between the water levels during high and low tide lies around the three meters. The harbors De Oude Haven and ‘T Sas fall dry during an extremely low tide. When these harbors fall dry, foundations will come in …

There are a lot of problems associated with clayey soil. More geotechnical pathologies appeared as more developed project brighten up. The geotechnical engineers encounter problems with modelling the stiff clayey soil behaviour especially while using the classical methods for obtaining the input parameters …

We present a method for measuring gait velocity of older adults using data from existing ambient sensor networks. Gait velocity is an important predictor of fall risk and functional health. In contrast to other approaches that use specific sensors or sensor configurations, our method imposes no constraints …

Safety culture has been a topic of discussion in safety literature in the past three decades. Since its first mentioning after the Chernobyl accident much have been written about what fosters a positive safety culture within organizations. The Aviation Academy of the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences …

The adaptation of urbanised areas to climate change is currently one of the key challenges in the domain of urban policy. The diversity of environmental determinants requires the formulation of individual plans dedicated to the most significant local issues. This article serves as a methodic proposition …

In this paper, we describe the development of a collaborative approach to elicit and analyse service process experience as part of a project commissioned by the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Environment. We designed and deployed a model-based instrument for measuring the experiences of both the …

The following paper presents an innovative approach for dealing with complex capacity problems in aviation. We introduce a sliding window framework composed by an optimization method with a simulation component. By applying this framework in diverse problems that are dependent on time it is possible …

Sleeping is an important part of human life as multiple sleep restriction studies have shown. However, its function is not yet completely understood even though researchers have been performing sleep experiments for years. These experiments require sleep stage scoring, which as of this moment is done …
