This deliverable focuses on the construction industry of the Netherlands.The construction industry has a reputation for being inefficient. Innovation in construction logistics is needed to ensure that cities stay liveable. To create innovation in constructionlogistics, collaboration between stakeholders is necessary. However, the lack of reliable quantitative data is a problem. Reliable quantitative data are necessary to convince stakeholders for new collaborations that are needed for innovations in construction logistics. There is, therefore, a need to examine the current state of construction logistics calculation models. The integrated logistics concept (ILC) is used to examine construction logistics processes and to address factors that obstruct the development of construction logistics calculation models.
Several studies have shown that flying electric between the so-called ABC-islands in the Caribbean (i.e., Aruba, Bonaire and Curaçao) is feasible with the upcoming first generation of battery-electric aircraft. This paper presents a real-world case study that deals with the technical and operational characteristics of electric flight in that region. With that purpose, the Aruba Airport Authority (AAA) commissioned this investigation, which involved numerous local stakeholders, such as airlines, energy providers and navigation services. This study involves two commuter electric aircraft under development, aiming to investigate how they fit in the current operational scheme of three local airlines and three conventional aircraft types in terms of technology, capacity, schedule, performance, CO2 emissions and fuel costs. Conclusions indicate that a transition to batter-electric aircraft is feasible with regards to the aforementioned criteria and with the current technology and energy density of batteries.
Kinderen zijn beduidend zwaarder en minder actief dan vroeger. Docenten Lichamelijke Opvoeding (LO) zouden een belangrijke rol kunnen spelen in het ombuigen van deze trends, onder andere door zich meer te richten op de motorische vaardigheid van kinderen, een belangrijke voorspeller van een meer actieve leefstijl op latere leeftijd. Uit de Nulmeting Bewegingsonderwijs (Reijgersberg et al., 2013) komt naar voren dat niet duidelijk is in hoeverre docenten LO bijdragen aan de motorische vaardigheid van kinderen. Om hier meer inzicht in te krijgen is behoefte aan een valide, betrouwbaar en praktisch toepasbaar meetinstrument. In dit artikel wordt ingegaan op het meten van de motorische vaardigheid binnen de context van de lichamelijke opvoeding met een nieuw meetinstrument: het Athletic Skills (AS)-beweegparcours.
