Within the Cool Neighbourhoods project, heat stress is assessed using the Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET), a thermal comfort indicator that combines meteorological conditions with spatial and environmental variables. PET-based heat stress maps provide insight into spatial differences in thermal …

This project is grounded in three complementary theoretical perspectives: digital twin technology, material trade-off theory in electric motor design, and interactive learning theory. Digital twin theory provides the conceptual basis for linking system modelling with dynamic representation, supporting …

Generative AI (Gen AI) has been rapidly changing the tourism industry, not only globally but also in Vietnam, and especially in the context of Gen Z travelers changing the future of the tourism industry as they are digital natives and are already using Generative AI (Gen AI) for travel purposes.

Within this context, Purchase-to-Pay (P2P) has …

Hand- en polsaandoeningen komen frequent voor binnen de fysiotherapeutische- en revalidatiezorg en kunnen het dagelijks functioneren aanzienlijk beperken. De behandeling van deze aandoening vraagt om een goede multidisciplinaire samenwerking tussen onder andere fysiotherapeuten, handtherapeuten en plastisch …

Het onderzoek ontwikkelt een geïntegreerd procesraamwerk dat parallel plannen en parametrisch ontwerpen combineert om de Nederlandse woningbouw te versnellen, betaalbaar en duurzaam te maken binnen een circulaire bouweconomie. Het kwalitatief-exploratieve onderzoek, gebaseerd op literatuur, expertinterviews …

Traditional non-linear models offer Dutch municipalities limited insight into the social behaviour of local stakeholders, even though this behaviour largely determines the success of policies in complex sociotechnical systems. This study addresses the following research question: “How can an agent-based …

This thesis investigates the restoration and structural reinforcement of a historically protected 19th-century residential building on the island of Hydra, Greece. Undertaken within the strict constraints of Greek heritage law (ΦΕΚ 594Δ/1978), the project aims to enhance structural safety and environmental …

This thesis investigates how dynamic capabilities and their underlying microfoundations enable manufacturers to implement digital servitization as a means for circular business model innovation. Digital servitization and circular business model innovation are both gaining traction in the manufacturing …
