Shortcuts to anchors or staff-pages

One of the options to add to your site-tree is a so-called shortcut. Basically, it creates a link to another site in your navigation. However, these shortcuts had two specific shortcomings: it was impossible to link directly to an anchor on the target page and it was impossible to link directly to a staff-page.

Both issues have been resolved by adding two dedicated shortcut modes.

In content element mode, fill in the field as follows: pageid#elementid

In staff mode, simply add the webidentifier.

Styling options for filters

Our facet filters (on search pages and/or overviews) are generally displayed as checkboxes. With this release you can also have them configured as buttons, in a few different styles (rounded buttons, square buttons, ghost-style buttons etc.).

Please contact your local content manager to adjust the styling of these filters.

Additional pull classes

TU Delft's webpages consist of specific fields with their own proporties such as the header field, the footer and ofcourse the main column. This leads to the main column having a maximum width for displaying content.

However, a popular request has been to utilize the entire screen width when using the full width template, especially for highlighting items.

So by changing a grid layout, you can now create wider colored grids and/or position content over the entire screen width.

We've also had a few changes made to the 'Narrow content' setting, so be sure to try that out as well.

Students Amos Yusuf, Mick Dam & Bas Brouwer winners of Mekel Prize 2024

Master students Amos Yusuf, from the ME faculty, Mick Dam, from the EEMCS faculty, and graduate Bas Brouwer have won the Mekel Prize 2024 for the best extra scientific activity at TU Delft: the development of an initiative that brings master students into the classroom teaching sciences to the younger generations. The prize was ceremonially awarded by prof Tim van den Hagen on 13 November after the Van Hasselt Lecture at the Prinsenhof, Delft. They received a statue of Professor Jan Mekel and 1.500,- to spend on their project.

Early attempt at colour photography discovered

Delft University of Technology has unearthed six glass slides (1890 – 1910), which represent one of the earliest attempts at colour photography. The slides were found during an inventory conducted by the Programme Tailor-Made Approach to Faculty Collections at the Imaging Physics department of the Faculty of Applied Sciences. To view the images, technician Thim Zuidwijk reconstructed a diffraction chromoscope, revealing vivid depictions of a vase with a floral motif and a still life of a fruit basket alongside a banana and a wrapped citrus fruit.

Merging like a human: TU Delft develops new model to help self-driving cars drive socially

Scientists at TU Delft have developed a new model that better describes human behaviour when merging into motorway traffic. Current models often assume that drivers are constantly trying to optimise their behaviour to reach their destination as quickly and safely as possible, but this is not always the case, says postdoctoral researcher Olger Siebinga.

A rudimentary quantum network link between Dutch cities

An international research team led by QuTech has demonstrated a network connection between quantum processors over metropolitan distances. Their result marks a key advance from early research networks in the lab towards a future quantum internet. The team developed fully independently operating nodes and integrated these with deployed optical internet fibre, enabling a 25 km quantum link. The researchers published their findings in Science Advances.

Large meltwater accumulation revealed inside Greenland Ice Sheet

A new study published in Nature unveils a surprising discovery: a substantial amount of meltwater is temporarily stored within the Greenland Ice Sheet during summer months. For the first time, an international group of researchers was able to quantify meltwater with positioning data. The finding challenges current models of how ice sheets contribute to global sea level rise.
