Cities in -interaction
Analysing the Dutch system of cities with computational methods
Paperback || Antoine Peris || TU Delft Open
Cities never function in isolation but as nodes in overarching systems characterised by flows of goods, people, and information. To fully understand the evolution of cities, a relational approach is needed, which investigates cities in relation to other cities and urban regions. While a significant part of urban system research has focused on aspects such as the concentration of populations and economic activities, the understanding of the actual networks connecting cities and their impact is...

Hybrid Intelligence in Architectural Robotic Materialization (HI-ARM)
Computational, Fabrication and Material Intelligence for Multi-Mode Robotic Production of Multi-Scale and Multi-Material Systems
Paperback || Sina Mostafavi || TU Delft Open
With increasing advancements in information and manufacturing technologies, there is an ever‑growing need for innovative integration and application of computational design and robotic fabrication in architecture. Hybrid Intelligence in Architectural Robotic Materialization (HI-ARM) provides methods and frameworks that target this need. HI-ARM introduces methodologies and technologies that incorporate computational, fabrication and material intelligence in integrated design-to-robotic-produ...

In the Name of Conservation
Reflections on the Interpretation and Justification of China’s Urban Heritage Practices by Taking Shanghai’s Lilong Neighbourhoods as an Example
2023 || Paperback || Kaiyi Zhu || TU Delft
This thesis investigates the introduction, adaption, and implementation of the modern concept of heritage conservation in modern China after the opening of its treaty ports. Through an analysis of the different layers of disseminating and receiving knowledge in transnational exchanges, it explicitly points out the divergence between the Eurocentric concept of conservation and the Chinese tradition of treating historic buildings and sites. As a result of the complexity of understanding and ada...

Entrepreneurial citizenship in urban regeneration
2023 || Paperback || Nuha Al Sader || TU Delft
More and more citizens are entering the public domain and taking over tasks that traditionally belong to the government. For example, citizens increasingly run a community centre themselves, maintain the greenery in their neighbourhood and manage the local playground. To some extent, governments also encourage this behaviour and are disposing of social real estate. Against this background, this study examines the rise of citizens' initiatives in the Netherlands and how this takes shape in the...

Spatial approaches to a circular economy
Determining locations and scales of closing material loops using geographic data
2023 || Paperback || Tanya Tsui || TU Delft
Rapid urbanization has exerted unsustainable pressures on the environment, and implementing circular economy (CE) in cities has been seen by policy makers as a potential solution for resource scarcity. Scholars have therefore called for an understanding of the spatial aspects of CE that go beyond urban governance strategies, engendering the recent integration of spatial disciplines, such as urban planning and regional economics, into the study of CE.
Using the Netherlands as a case study, th...

Advancing the manufacture of complex geometry GFRC for today's building envelopes
Hardcover || Thomas N. Henriksen || TU Delft Open
Thin-walled glass fibre reinforced concrete (GFRC) panels are being used as the primary cladding material on many landmark buildings especially in the last decade. GFRC is an ideal material for building envelopes because it is durable, it can resist fire and the environmental impact is low compared to other materials, because the base materials used in the production of GFRC are widely available throughout the world. Thin-walled GFRC was initially developed as a cladding material in the 1970s...

Indoor semantic modelling for routing
Paperback || Liu Liu || TU Delft Open || met inkijkexemplaar
Humans perform many activities indoors and they show a growing need for indoor navigation, especially in unfamiliar buildings such as airports, museums and hospitals. Complexity of such buildings poses many challenges for building managers and visitors. Indoor navigation services play an important role in supporting these indoor activities. Indoor navigation covers extensive topics such as: 1) indoor positioning and localization; 2) indoor space representation for navigation model generation;...

A+BE Architecture and the Built Environment Rhine Cities - Urban Flood Integration (UFI)
german and Dutch Adaptation and Mitigation Strategies
2018 || Paperback || Cornelia Redeker || TU Delft Open
While agglomerations along the Rhine are confronted with the uncertainties of an increasing flood risk due to climate change, different programs are claiming urban river front sites. Simultaneously, urban development, flood management, as well as navigation and environmental protection are negotiating the border between the river and the urban realm. This produces complex spatial constellations between the river system and the urban realm with a diverse set of interdependencies, where program...

Spatial Planning and Design for Resilience
The Case of Pearl River Delta
Paperback || Wei Dai || TU Delft Open
Faced with the highly overlapping factors of the external disturbances -- natural disasters caused by extreme climate change, and internal interactions -- the contradiction between natural conditions and rapid urbanization, traditional spatial planning and design used to pursue economic development could not be flexible enough to respond to the dynamic and uncertain future of the Pearl River Delta (PRD).
Therefore, spatial planning and design should pay great attention to the fragile natural ...
