Universal and contextualized public services: Digital public service innovation framework
PublicationIn view of the rising social and economic inequalities, public service delivery should be both universal, i.e. independent of the recipients' social or economic status, and contextualized, i.e. able to compensate for different local needs and conditions. Reconciling both properties requires various forms of innovations, chief among them innovations in digital public services. Building upon the four-stage model underpinning the...

Determination of causes of accelerated local corrosion of austenitic steels in water supply systems
PublicationThis paper concerns an inspection of a water supply system, made of AISI 304 steel, which showed signs of local corrosion at the weld.
