Het kan beter, door geen satellieten maar 5G-masten te gebruiken.

The Netherlands is protected by about 250 kilometers of natural beach-dune systems and understanding the natural variability and resilience is of key importance to protect the Netherlands with the future climate change and sea level rise. The dataset provides information about storm responses and shoreward sand transport which is important for the resilience determination.

The working prototype that demonstrated this new mobile network infrastructure achieved an accuracy of 10 centimeter.

Herman Russchenberg van de TU Delft doet onderzoek naar het ontstaan en gedrag van wolken, omdat we juist zo weinig erover weten en het wel van grote invloed is op het klimaat.

It is a collaboration between the Block Research Group of ETH Zürich and TU Delft. The pavilion is shaped with a unique knitting work Mariana Popescu created using an algorithm and a knitting machine. With this, she demonstrates that it is possible to make efficient structures with very little building material, which also reduces CO2 emissions. Hardly any formwork is needed, resulting in virtually no construction waste. Read more ... Page 7 Page 8 Page 9 You are on page 10 Page 11 Page 12 ...
