• The hype cycle model: A review and future directions (2016, background): “And in the third article, van Lente et al. (2013) propose three variables to determine the hype curve: shape of the peak, depth of the trough, and overall length of the hype, and further, that variations in hype patterns with respect to these variables rely upon two dimensions.”
• Guidance for transport planning and policymaking in the face of an uncertain future (2016, background): “A hype cycle’s shape is likely to be context dependent and hence vary a lot in form (van Lente et al., 2013).”
• Dealing with the game-changing technologies of Agriculture 4.0: How do we manage diversity and responsibility in food system transition pathways? (2020, unknown): “1 Perhaps some technologies are already at the ‘peak of inflated expectations’ in the hype cycles that drive expectations as regards to technology developments (van Lente et al., 2013) and they may eventually never materialize.”
