Improving the performance of hospitals

An architectural analysis of patient journeys in China

2022 || Paperback || Dejian Peng || TU Delft Open

Nowadays, we are faced with serious challenges in public health worldwide. However, the challenges cannot be solved only in the domain of architecture, medical science or management. A successful hospital building is more than a nice building or an efficient healing machine. Patient journey is such a concept that tries to explore the possibility to solve the problems in hospitals in the domain of hospital architecture and hospital management. In this context, the research proposes a study of ...

Beyond good ­intentions

Building passport for sustainable conservation of built heritage

2022 || Paperback || Joana Dos Santos Gonçalves || TU Delft

Sustainable Conservation are the processes of change through which the components of the inherited ecosystem from the past retain their value for present and future generations. As such, the value assessment is critical to recognise the values of heritage, not only by its aesthetical and historical values, but also by its contribution to a more sustainable future.

Despite recent policies and standards highlighting the role of heritage for sustainability and encouraging urban conservation, s...

Housing ­justice as expansion of people’s ­capabilities for housing

Proposal for principles of housing policies and evaluation of housing inequality

2022 || Paperback || Boram Kimhur || TU Delft

Housing inequality is a growing concern in our society.

Management of financial institutions and housing markets has become the centre of attention in policy discussion. The questions of how to promote the moral values tied to housing, such as human rights, dignity and freedom, and how to better enable people to access suitable housing h...

Urban Scenes of a Port City

Exploring Beautiful İzmir through Narratives of Cosmopolitan Practices

2022 || Paperback || Fatma Tanış || TU Delft

This dissertation is an invitation to the reader to explore Güzel İzmir / Beautiful İzmir in Turkey.

Thus, it wants to discuss the specificity of an eastern Mediterranean port city by addressing it on eye-level through the exper...

Design and Fabrication of Shell Structures

Aided by Radial Basis Functions and Reconfigurable Mechanisms

2022 || Paperback || Yu-Chou Chiang || TU Delft Open

Shell structures carry loads with their thin yet curved shapes. Being thin means shells require little material, which is desirable for minimizing embodied carbon footprints. However, the feature of being curved implies shells require immense effort to design and fabricate. To address the challenges, this dissertation consists of three parts: developing a design algorithm based on radial basis functions (RBFs), inventing a fabrication technique based on reconfigurable mechanisms, and producin...

The Integration of LADM and IndoorGML to Support the Indoor Navigation Based on the User Access Rights

2022 || Paperback || Abdullah Alattas || TU Delft Open

Indoor navigation applications are actively investigated and developed due to their capacity to provide users with essential information in the modern extensive building complexes. Therefore, many researchers have developed a range of indoor navigation applications, which have focused on aspects such as localization, indoor route computation, and human spatial cognition. Unfortunately, current indoor navigation systems do not consider the user's access rights when it comes to navigating safel...

Towards A Poetics of Dwelling

Exploring Nearness Within the Chinese Literati Garden

2022 || Paperback || Li Lu || TU Delft

This thesis starts with a worrisome observation tied to various phenomena across modern built environments: humans today are experiencing a weakened relatedness to and reduced intimacy with the world around them. In stark contrast to the general trend, however, most Chinese literati gardens maintain their traditional rich conditions, enabling their visitors to experience a unique, high-quality experience of relatedness to and intimacy with the world, which may serve as an antidote to the exis...

The Oil is ­Dying? Long Live its "Heritage"!

The Refining of Legal Systems and Port-Cities’ Planning

2022 || Paperback || Stephan Hauser || TU Delft Open

Oil is a dangerous product. Its transport, storage and refining present numerous environmental and health challenges. Local, national and European regulators have taken steps to locate it in space since the beginning of industrial oil drilling in the 1860s. But key leaders of the oil industry in Northwest Europe, and beyond, have also served as policy makers and aimed to keep legal constraints (decrees, laws, taxes) as limited as possible to prevent the emergence of obstacles in the developme...
