This paper assesses wind resource characteristics and energy yield for micro wind turbines integrated on noise barriers. An experimental set-up with sonic anemometers placed on top of the barrier in reference positions is realized. The effect on wind speed magnitude, inflow angle and turbulence intensity …

On the 11th of March, just a few days aheadof COVID – 19, the team working on the ELISEUse Case “Comparative analysis of differentmethodologies and datasets for EnergyPerformance Labelling of buildings” organizedthe 2nd European SimStadt workshop atSaxion University of Applied Sciences inEnschede, hosted …

Background: Survivors of lymphoma experience multiple challenges after treatment. However, a lack of knowledge of in-depth experiences of lymphoma survivors in early aftercare persists. Objective: To gain an in-depth understanding of the experiences of lymphoma survivors in early aftercare who have received …

During the graduation project for the HBO-ICT education, the student has worked on a projectcommissioned by Thales Group. Thales uses Apache Avro to specify the API they use. Basedon this specification, empty methods are generated and filled out by Thales developers.However, they want to specify more …

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) form a highly promising class of bioplastics for the transition from fossil fuel-based plastics to bio-renewable and biodegradable plastics. Mixed microbial consortia (MMC) are known to be able to produce PHAs from organic waste streams. Knowledge of key-microbes and their …

New technologies or approaches are being widely developed and proposed to be deployed in real energy systems to improve desired objectives; however supporting decision making processes to select best solutions in terms of performance and efficient following cost-benefit analysis require some sort of …

The project STORE&GO aims to investigate all the aspects regarding the integration of large-scale Power-to-Gas (PtG) at European level, by exploiting it as means for long term storage. One of the aspects that should be properly addressed is the beneficial impact that the integration of PtG plants may …

To facilitate energy transition, in several countries regulators have devised ‘regulatory sandboxes’ to create a participatory experimentation environment for exploring revision of energy law. These sandboxes allow for a two-way regulatory dialogue between an experimenter and an approachable regulator …

QUOTE “This thesis is going to discuss the historical, cultural and economic conditions that currently Chinese independent designers have to take into account, both when venturing in the Chinese as well as in the international markets – more specifically, those in the West.” ISSUE Due to several disruptions …

People in western countries spend approximately 90% of their time indoors. This severely affects their health (WHO 2013; Klepeis et al. 2001). The health risks are exacerbated if people travel between indoor spaces by car or public transport. Buildings on streets specifically designed to create a human …
