Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to examine policies and planning for sustainable city tourism in Amsterdam and Rotterdam and relate them to the notions of ‘tourism reset’ that emerged during the COVID pandemic period. Amsterdam is a prime European tourist city and has been suffering from problems associated with overtourism. Rotterdam receives much less tourists and can be seen as an emerging tourist city. Both cities have recently adopted new tourism policies, essentially future tourism visions. The case of Amsterdam and to a lesser extent that of Rotterdam show that formulating and agreeing on a tourism policy vision is easier than the decision-making process and implementing a vision. The instruments and powers of local government to manage the quantity and qualities of tourism are limited. Overtourism problems have stimulated carrying capacity thinking, which is considered inadequate for a multi-faceted problem like urban tourism.

Abstract:
This article discusses the significance of night-time spaces associated with the Cape Verdean community in Rotterdam, home to the third largest Cape Verdean diaspora in the world. Through interdisciplinary approaches including interviews with key figures in music production and nightlife, mapping of key historical and contemporary sites, and close analysis of artefacts and music lyrics, this article considers how music practices of huge historical and cultural significance have been deeply embedded in the night-time cartography of the city. Following Doreen Massey’s formulations, it considers urban space as a mobile junction of historical, sociopolitical and cultural layers, in constant transformation, and argues that night-time spaces were, and continue to be, integral to the development of a political–cultural consciousness among the Cape Verdean community in Rotterdam, in colonial and postcolonial contexts. These discussions are also relevant given current debates on the value of the ‘night-time economy’ in Rotterdam’s post-industrial landscape.

Abstract:
The social housing project at Persoonshaven in the Feijenoord district of Rotterdam in the Netherlands provides an adaptation of a common late 19th-century speculative house type. The changes in its appearance, spatial organization, details and structure result from standardized contemporary Dutch construction techniques and current regulations and spatial standards. The house types and building methods will be described in the context of Martin Steinmann’s characterization of traditionalist design as practiced by the Danish architect Kay Fisker.

Abstract:
Background Age-friendly neighbourhoods seem to promote physical activity among older individuals. Physical activity is especially important for chronically ill individuals. In the Netherlands, older Surinamese individuals are more likely to have chronic diseases than are their native Dutch counterparts. This study examined relationships of neighbourhood characteristics with physical activity among older Surinamese individuals in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Methods Of 2749 potential participants, 697 (25%) community-dwelling older (age ≥ 70 years) Surinamese individuals living in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, completed a questionnaire on personal and neighbourhood characteristics between March and June 2020. Correlation and multilevel regression analyses were performed to identify associations between missing neighbourhood characteristics for ageing in place and physical activity. Results Scores for the neighbourhood domains communication and information (r = -0.099, p ≤ 0.05), community support and health services (r = -0.139, p ≤ 0.001), and respect and social inclusion (r = -0.141, p ≤ 0.001), correlated negatively with participants’ PA. In the multilevel analysis, overall missing neighbourhood characteristics to age in place scores were associated negatively with physical activity (p ≤ 0.05). Conclusion This study showed the importance of age-friendly neighbourhoods for physical activity among older Surinamese individuals in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Our findings suggest that the neighbourhood plays an important role in supporting older individuals’ leading of physically active lifestyles. Further research is needed to support the development of interventions to create age-friendly neighbourhoods.

Abstract:
In 1932, Nellie van Rijsoort (1910–1996), the Dutch embroidery maker and designer, opened her atelier in Rotterdam. Among her clients were prestigious fashion stores in the Netherlands as well as wealthy middle-class customers. After the Second World War, van Rijsoort left Rotterdam and continued her career in Melbourne in the rapidly developing fashion network of Australia. Today, samples of embroidered fabrics and fashion drawings by Nellie van Rijsoort are part of the collections of the Museum Rotterdam and the National Trust of Australia in Melbourne. These collections provide insight into half a century of history of embroidered fabrics. This article illustrates the largely forgotten career of the embroidery designer. The first part of the article outlines the position and meaning of van Rijsoort's atelier in the fashion networks of the Netherlands and Australia, while the second part provides an analysis of embroidery samples and drawings, which reveal the place and function of embroideries as dress decorations.

Abstract:
Thesis (M.C.P.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Urban Studies and Planning, 2005.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 90-92).
This thesis examines the planning process for a major expansion project in the Port of Rotterdam, the Netherlands (Maasvlakte 2), as a case study of mutual gains-oriented consensus building and interactive problem solving. After years of formal negotiations between a broad range of local, regional, and national stakeholders, the project planning came to an impasse when environmental organizations and port expansion proponents could not reconcile their positions on if and under what conditions the port should be extended. I posit that at this critical juncture certain environmental organizations took an uncharacteristically proactive role in altering the relationships between stakeholders in a way that was crucial to the ultimate achievement of a consensus among them. The case demonstrates how actors other than those who are formally responsible for structuring negotiations can profoundly influence them so as to promote a sense of interdependence and shared vision among even the seemingly most oppositional factions. This conclusion supports the assertion by network theorists that in the modern era effective planning and policy formulation cannot be achieved solely through government decision-making.
(cont.) Instead, they must rely upon more deliberative processes that incorporate a wider range of actors. Based upon this analysis, I prescribe a model of interaction for actors in complex, multi-stakeholder negotiations, which, while particularly relevant to contemporary port planning projects, is broadly applicable to diverse contexts.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines the current debate in the Netherlands on norms and values. Specifically, it addresses the question of whether norms and values can be described, and if so, whether policy reveals the way that education plays a role in their acquisition by adult newcomers. The data collected consist of national and local (city of Rotterdam) integration policy, and in addition, interviews with politicians, policy analysts, and academics involved in the integration process. The analysis of policy and interviews was conducted using a grounded theory approach. The data revealed that the assimilation of Dutch norms and values is considered essential to the integration process, even though defining a Dutch norm and value is difficult, and contradictions and ironies appear when a norm or value is practiced. The data also revealed that 'education' is regarded as one of the most important means by which adult newcomers assimilate into Dutch norms and values. The conclusions based on these findings have several implications for education, some of which are: assimilation does not allow education to explore the complexity or abstractness of Dutch norms and values; provisions in policy regarding sanctions make education an instrument of enforcement and coercion; other policy provisions make education an instrument of exclusion rather then inclusion.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the various meanings and implications of transparency in architecture and in learning environments in particular. Architectural transparency, achieved through choice of materials and principles of formal composition, creates a diversity of relationships and can facilitate visual, conceptual, and functional clarity as well as offering simultaneous perception of different spaces. It offers a range of phenomenological qualities and so provides an opportunity to explore and complicate such dichotomies as translucency and opacity, openness and closure, and public space and private space. While celebrated throughout modern and contemporary architecture, transparency raises issues of privacy and safety even as it breaks down hierarchies and social boundaries. The research-based design of transparency in a school building necessitates careful planning to achieve a balance between the access to views, natural light, fresh air, and social interaction that transparency may bring and the continuing obligation to provide a safe, secure environment for schoolchildren.

"The impact of urban form on thermal comfort across street zones." 2014. http://library.cuhk.edu.hk/record=b6116380.

Abstract:
全球變暖現象在最近幾年的高漲，引發了城市中不斷發生的嚴峻局部炎熱氣候，也令戶外熱舒適度課題不斷得到更多關注。這篇論文中作者從城市設計角度考察熱舒適度的分佈，並且著眼于通過定量模型研究城市形態因子與熱舒適度之間的關係，以模型作爲客觀數據實測和人主觀感受之間的橋梁。文中以荷蘭城市鹿特丹為典型代表研究了輻射爲主情況下城市設計對熱能動力學的影響，用平均輻射溫度為關鍵變量基於SOLWEIG軟件模擬探討這個變量的時空分佈。同時爲了在更長時間段中對熱舒適度作校準，輻射模擬的結果也通過RayMan軟件和氣象學觀測結果結合得出更加符合人體感受的熱環境評判結論。
文中主要考慮三种城市形態因子：高寬比，街道方向，和建築物外形。街道被分成中間區域和兩邊行人區域，以力圖得到最接近事實上熱舒適度感覺的結果。通過分析模型輸出和模擬結果，我們確認了城市形態因子對熱舒適度有顯著影響。從不同角度進一步研究不同城市因子的變化和熱舒適度變化之間的定量關係，我們發現所考慮的三种形態因子都會改變熱舒適度的分佈，並且各個因子的影響之間也有相關性。這些影響和相關性讓我們可以從結果中總結出更深層的機理，其中最重要的分別是日間太陽短波輻射的阻擋陰影效果和夜間長波散熱的束縛效果。在這兩個原理的作用下模型結果可以得到統一的解釋歸納，並且給出基於這些結果的城市設計方面的建議，包括在日照最充足的區域減小天空開闊度，通過調整街道方向減少日光直接照射等等。
文中所給出的結果和研究方法展現了城市形態對熱舒適度的動態影響，並可以作爲進一步研究的基礎。我們給出了一些可行的擴展，討論了更多可以研究的重要效應，以進一步加深對這些影響的理解和拓寬改善城市熱環境的手段。經由定量建模和多變量分析，城市設計對熱舒適度的影響可以得到更好理解和利用。
The outdoor thermal comfort is becoming an increasingly important topic in recent years because of the global warming effect and the severe heat events experienced by cities. In this thesis we address the thermal comfort from the urban design perspective and aim at quantitatively modeling the relationship between urban form factors and thermal comfort output from a data-based human-oriented approach. Selecting Rotterdam of the Netherlands as a target city, we focus upon the radiation component of thermal environment when connecting urban design to thermal equilibrium dynamics. The radiation is represented by the Mean Radiant Temperature (Tmrt) variable, and simulated using the Solar Long Wave Environmental Irradiance Geometry (SOLWEIG) model. To evaluate the long-term calibrated thermal comfort using data over longer periods the RayMan model is also used to combine the radiation simulation output with meteorological parameters for a more human-oriented comparison.
The urban form factors considered include the height-to-width ratio (h/w), the street orientations, and the urban forms. To enable a more realistic evaluation of pedestrian thermal comfort we also divide the street into three separate zones so that the center and two side pavement zones can be individually studied and placed together for a comparison. The results confirm the impact of urban forms on thermal comfort and quantitatively evaluate such effects from all different perspectives. We find that all the urban form factors impose variations of the simulated thermal variables, and they also have correlated interactions revealing deeper connections and principles governing such relations. The most significant principles found for the scenario studies are the shading of solar short-wave radiation during the day and the trapping of long-wave emission at night, summarizing all the individual effects into a coherent body of knowledge. Utilizing these discoveries we can make design recommendations toward a better thermal environment, including reducing the sky view factor at the locations with the most solar radiation exposure, orienting the streets to utilize the building shades, etc.
As a precursor into the dynamic nature of urban form impact over thermal comfort, the results and methodology presented in this thesis serve as a foundation of more research in the same direction. Several possible extensions are proposed and more important effects are mentioned, revealing the potential and strength of our approach. Both the current research and possible extensions contribute to the field of urban thermal comfort and provide unique perspectives for rigorous quantitative investigations into a realistic urban thermal comfort model.

Shezi island is a peninsula alluvium made by Keelung river and Tamsui river. Since there is the lower urban development, more green land than constructions and less population in Shezi, there are some more abundant land hasn’t been used properly. Close to two rivers, Keelung river and Tamsui river, Shezi has good natural environment. But the land is below the horizon line, it also has flooding issues. Thereford, the water could be either good or bad element for Shezi. In this study, the Dutch Rotterdam as the object, because of its low position and often the risk of flooding the river. They have taken in recent years with the water symbiosis and the concept of water. The risk of flooding, and at the same time to develop their own characteristics of the ecological tourism. We use questionnaires, interviews and SWOT analysis to understand the local community residents and the environment profile. The results show that local residents are neutral attitude towards ecotourism, but it is still low in ecotourism development. The qualitative interview, according to the relevant stakeholders of the interview, we can find the local community has the potential to develop eco-tourism and opportunities （such as wetlands, riverbank landscape and policy lifted, etc.）, but there are also some worries or Threats （such as consortia, interest groups and low-lying, etc.）. Finally, this study suggests that in addition to the promotion of ecotourism, the community should focus on the overall development of the environment, and that will bring the greatest benefits to the local residents.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter sets out to explore how urban agriculture can contribute to the development of the capabilities of gardeners and the larger urban community. Our study of cases in Aarhus (Denmark) and Rotterdam (the Netherlands) aimed to understand how different municipalities facilitate urban agriculture and how different urban agriculture initiatives perform in public space. In the analysis of the initiatives, we drew on a conceptualization of publicness focused on interactions in and products from physical space that link people. With an emphasis on a definition of public that is greater than the gardeners involved in each initiative, we identify four trajectories in urban agriculture’s public service, which include increasing access and animation in public space, contributing to social services, producing and distributing food, and building communities to spread cultivation knowledge. These trajectories structure our presentation and discussion of selected urban agriculture initiatives. While not mutually exclusive, the four areas of service place different strains upon the public space ideal of physical access. We find that food production and social services may be little suited for urban spaces that demand high levels of public access, though these benefits can reach broad public if localized and facilitated appropriately.

In 2016 the City of Rotterdam joined the 100 Resilient Cities of The Rockefeller Foundation. The 100 Resilient Cities is an initiative emphasizing the need for cities to build resilience. Rotterdam was one of the first to heed the call of the 100 Resilient Cities highlighting the city’s position as a frontrunner in addressing climate adaptive urban planning projects and innovative means in dealing with flood risks and vulnerabilities. Learning from the great North Sea flood of 1953 disaster experience, the Netherlands ensured strong preventive measures making the country safe from flooding. The City of Rotterdam benefits from these strong preventive measures as this safeguards the city and the biggest and most important port in Europe from any disaster. However, these strong preventive measure have also muted the concept of resilience on the stakeholders. This is also further weighed down by the many different initiatives present in the city. The paper seeks to investigate the institutional and non-institutional actors perspective on resilience and the environmental threats in the City of Rotterdam. The research assumes that knowledge and experience on Rotterdam’s environmental vulnerabilities and threats lead to better collaboration between and among stakeholders in making the city resilient. This knowledge and experience also leads to the mutual adaptation of roles between the government and other stakeholders of the city such as the citizens, businesses, academe, civil society organizations among others. The research explores questions related to stakeholders perception on risk and vulnerability of the city to disasters, disaster awareness and concern, and their definition of resilience and a resilient city.

Abstract:
<p>The city of Rotterdam in the Netherlands has been involved in the North West European Interreg URBCON program. This program includes the development of geopolymer concrete based on the client demands and the application in demonstration projects. Rotterdam acts as client willing to tender for a geopolymer concrete bridge including recycled concrete aggregates. A major difficulty is that the newly developed material has no track record, there is no tendering and building experience and the existing framework (i.e. EC2) is not formally applicable.</p><p>This paper shows the interesting observations and the learnings from the client’s point of view, based on being part of the URBCON program and the actual design, tendering process and realisation of the geopolymer concrete bridge.</p>

Abstract:
This paper gives an impression of the developments made in using steam as a source of power in the Netherlands from 1750-1885. Without a substantial national engineering industry, early steam engines had to be imported from England and were mainly used for land drainage stations (stoomgemaal). As a maritime nation sending merchant ships all over the world, and where wind power by traditional windmills was well developed, there was little initial interest in the atmospheric engine innovations of Thomas Newcomen from 1712. Later, Dutch philosophers like Steven Hoogendijk (1698-1788), together with other fellows of the Batavian Society, promoted scientific developments and the application of steam engines in particular. Nevertheless it took a further sixty years (1776) before the first atmospheric engine (vuurmachine) was built in Rotterdam. It did not turn out to be a success, but a second engine built shortly afterwards performed well and further installations followed.

Abstract:
In 2006, in the Netherlands the Betuweline will be realized between the port of Rotterdam and the German Hinterland. The Betuweline is a dedicated high-speed freight railway for all kinds of freight transport, including hazardous materials. The Betuweline crosses multiple built environments and comprises 5 tunnels. As a result, safety is a main issue for various stakeholders such as railway engineers, spatial planners and emergency responders. For this railway, however, the juridical character of the safety topics differs widely from (hard) legal risk criteria such as individual risk to (soft) safety guidelines such as accessibility by emergency responders. In this article, safety topics of the Betuweline are described and analyzed with regard to the available laws and guidelines in order to search for opportunities to reduce societal risk and society’s vulnerability.

Abstract:
After the storm surge disaster in 1953, which caused more than 1800 casualties in the Southwestern part of The Netherlands, a large dyke-strengthening and coastline-shortening programme was agreed upon and laid down by law. Work on the first projects commenced in the early sixties of the last century and the last phase of the programme was planned to start in 1990 and comprised of the dyke-strengthening programme in the Rhine Delta upstream from Rotterdam. This large project encountered growing public resistance as the required safety standards were established at the expense of both social and cultural values as well as ecological values. A feasibility study was started to ensure the required safety requirements of a storm surge barrier. The outcome was positive and the project was started in 1990 and was completed in 1996. In 1987, six contractors were invited to tender for the design and construction of a storm surge barrier, with only four “demand” specifications: (1) Reduction of the design water level in Rotterdam by 1.6 metres. (2) Reduction of the design water level 25 km (15 miles) upstream by 0.6 meter. (3) Lifetime of 100 years. (4) No obstacles to navigation. This set of requirements pertained to failure criteria. Based on this set of requirements, a full probabilistic method was adopted for the design of the storm surge barrier. A breakdown was made, starting from the basic probabilities of failure. The breakdown was based on failure trees with parallel and serial connected components and elements. In that way the design engineers were provided with centrally distributed failure criteria. This full probabilistic method, however, did not appeared to be adequate for several reasons. After a few months the full probabilistic design method was changed into a semi probabilistic method. Nevertheless, for the assessment of the load cases, a probabilistic approach was used, but for the design work on components and elements a traditional method introducing partial safety factors was used. Throughout the design period it was very difficult to prove that the actual designed system as well as, the designed sub systems and designed components met with the basic failure requirements. In order to avoid discussions, the designers embraced higher limits for their dimensioning calculations, resulting in a safer and more reliable storm surge barrier than was initially required.

Abstract:
The regeneration of Zorrotzaurre is the largest current urban development project in the city of Bilbao. Since the final Master Plan for the project was approved in 2012, progress in the development has already resulted in the opening of the Deusto canal and the construction and renovation of buildings on the northern and southern parts of the island. However, certain challenges have arisen throughout this phase that must be solved in order to guarantee further successful development of the island. These challenges can be summarised in four key factors: Governance, Talent Creation, Real Estate and Mobility. This report gathers a case analysis of six city districts in order to obtain pragmatic and robust findings and recommendations for the development process in Zorrotzaurre: Waterfront Toronto (Canada), 22@ -Barcelona (Spain), HafenCity – Hamburg (Germany), Innovation District- Porto (Portugal), Kalasatama -Helsinki (Finland) and Innovation District - Rotterdam (The Netherlands). The result of the analysis leads to seven core conclusions: Centrality multiactor spaces as governance structures for district development Holistic system for a bottom-up approach and citizens’ participation Comprehensive information sharing system Importance of district development facilitators and agency Living lab approach Compliance of real estate with social and environmental standards Mobility as an essential part of the district development process The analysis is part of Bilbao Next Lab, the action research project facilitated by Orkestra in collaboration with Bilbao City Council in order to advance within the smart specialization process of the city. According to the cogeneration model of action research, this report will be one of the contributions of the team of researchers from Orkestra to the process with the aim of defining specific policy instruments and actions for the development of the Zorrotzaurre district. Specific workshops, arranged by researchers, will take place in 2020 for such purpose.
