Digital Bastards for a Safe & Climate Resilient Delta
SUCCESSFUL LORENTZ WORKSHOP
 
Digital twins are digital representations of complex human-environment-technology interactions for decision support. Digital twins of the Earth are a means for scientists, policymakers, and the industry to engage with society and extract the best value from existing data and models to understand and interact with 'system Earth'. We look back at a successful workshop, which brought together the designer perspective and the more comprehensive ‘user-perspective’. A position paper about modular digital twins of the earth is still in the making - stay tuned.

FIELD PERSPECTIVE
 
New developments in safety & security research must be swiftly and skillfully translatable into practice, in which various public organisations and government institutions play a significant role. We posed five questions to some of these partners of the TU Delft Safety & Security Institute, focusing on their perspectives and insights.

INTERVIEW
 
Safety science and practice are all about preventing harmful incidents. But sometimes things still go wrong, unfortunately; a plane may crash, a bridge may collapse, or a medical device may give people an infection. Often, such events are human tragedies that raise many questions about how and why they happened. This is where a forensic engineer enters the scene. We talk about this with Michiel Schuurman, one of the three founding fathers of the TU Delft approach to Forensic Engineering.
