Membership of occupational pension schemes for employees. A comparative legal research and empirical study on the functioning of rules concerning the affiliation to an occupational pension scheme KU Leuven
For employees, an occupational pension is an increasingly important part of their income after retirement. The access to such an occupational pension plan is therefore the first and most crucial element or starting point in the accumulation of the additional income. Affiliation rules regulate which employees have access to an occupational pension scheme. These rules directly determine the participation rates. Both at national and European ...
Eurocode-Compliant Optimal Design of Steel Structures KU Leuven
The built environment is responsible for a large share of global greenhouse gas emissions. About 25 % of these emissions is due to the manufacturing and processing of structural building materials. Nevertheless, in current building practice, large amounts of structural material are wasted, as load-bearing structures are often grossly overdimensioned. Numerical optimization tools have the potential to reduce both material consumption and ...

Algorithms for solving 3D cutting and packing problems with real-world constraints KU Leuven
Three-dimensional cutting and packing problems consist of allocating a number of smaller items inside one or more larger items. Most existing research regarding 3D packing problems involves a single container, a set of identical containers or a set of identical items. The majority of individual papers employ heuristics in their approach, a situation explained by the difficulty of solving such problems. This causes the few existing modeling ...

Studying the Early Stage of Zeolite Synthesis using Molecular Simulations Ghent University
Zeolites are extensively used in chemical industry as shape-selective catalysts and adsorbents in
novel sustainable technologies. Despite their importance, the rational design of new zeolites
toward specific applications is still very challenging: 218 zeolite framework topologies were
synthesized of which only a small fraction is used at large in industry. Still, millions of hypothetical
zeolites ...
