Season 6, Episode 1 of “Kunnen we het maken?”. Welkom to the first episode of season 6. and we look back proudly at another successful season. The previous season was filled with another large variety of episodes and interesting, do make sure to check them out! For instance, the previous episode was with Ramon van der Heijden where we discussed a new method of designing.
For the first episode of the new season, we delve back into the research world here at the university. At the university, a plethora of topics are researched, many of which have already been discussed in one of the previous podcasts such as episode 8 of season 5 with Marta Gil Perez. The topic that we haven’t discussed enough of yet is steel structures and structural health monitoring. While the built environment is steadily moving toward more bio-based construction methods, the performance, reliability, and maintenance of steel structures remain crucial topics, especially for infrastructure like bridges, wind turbines, and rail systems. To discuss this topic we have asked an assistant professor in this field at the Eindhoven University of Technology to talk with us today, Davide Leonetti. Together, we will dive into this fascnating field of the built environment. Questions like “ What are the current developments being made regarding steel structures and SHM?” and “ How do you balance between experimental testing vs. numerical modelling for assessing fatigue and residual life of steel elements?” will be discussed as well as Davide’s past and current project. You can listen to it all in this first episode of season 6 of “Kunnen we het maken?”

Fatih Yalniz – Challenges of engineering the tallest skyscraper in New York
Season 5, Episode 1 of “Kunnen we het maken?”. Welcome to the first episode of season 5. In this podcast we are discussing the wonders of the construction world, skyscrapers. The topic of integrated design is something we have discussed in a couple of episodes. However, never this special type of integrated design. Integrated design for which knowledge is required about a lot of topics: advanced concrete and steel design, three-dimensional computational design, super complex wind calculations, geotechnical calculations, tuned mass dampeners, construction management, and a deep understanding of the design-to-construction process. We are going to discover new heights as we climb into a world in which you cannot just rely on the rules of thumb, and where a simple 2D structural scheme of your building is not enough: today we are going to learn all about slender and supertall skyscrapers with our expert guest of today, Fatih Yalniz from the WSP office in New York City. With Fatih we will talk about the countless skyscrapers that he and his team have worked on, not only in New York City but throughout the entire world. Do you want to know what goes into designing skyscrapers and what structural engineers from WSP are doing in terms of research for skyscrapers? You can listen to it all in this first episode of season 5 of “Kunnen we het maken?"
