Myopic Optimisation of Generation and Storage Investment for Long-Term Electricity System Planning

<br/>Power system planning is a strenuous exercise for both people and computers. As carbon goals and geopolit- ical complexities intensify, the number of scenarios for electricity system development is limitless. In search of robust policy and profitable investments, policymakers and investment managers rely on long-term elec- tricity system...

The Self-Organization of Stuff

The common description of the configuration of stuff in a room, one of order (tidy) and chaos (messy), fails to explain the phenomenon that artifacts create structures around people and activities in a space, with both functional and cognitive properties. This form of organization, that is recognizable on various scale levels, emerges...

Mechanical properties and deformation behaviour of highly porous pure titanium structures: A first step towards the design of a plastically deformable acetabular implant

Massive acetabular bone defects are difficult to treat with the currently available implants. Advances in additive manufacturing create new design possibilities, which allow the production of patient specific implants. These endless possibilities will enable to tune the mechanical properties of porous implants and to distribute the loads in such...

Modellering morfodynamisch gedrag van de Drempel van Hansweert

Onderdeel van dit project is het simuleren van het morfologisch gedrag van ren van de drempels, de Drempel van Hansweert, met een morfologisch computermodel. Dit verslag beschrijft de eerste van twee fasen van dit projekt waarin de modelbouw en de simulatie van de huidige situatie wordt beschreven. In de tweede fase zullen diverse...

Three-line modelling of the Terschelling supply

In the framework of the NOURTEC project experimental nourishments have been executed. The NOURTEC project is an EU-research project in the scope of the program for Marine Science and Technology (Mast II). NOURTEC stands for Innovative Nourishment Techniques Evaluation. Full-scale experiments have been carried out in three different countries ...

Effect of submerged breakwater on profile development

This study is part of a Human Capital and Mobility Project called 'Dynamics of Beaches'. This project is a co-operation of six European universities which work together in solving some unknown aspects of a submerged breakwater by means of model experiments. Several agreements about the experiments were made between the partners. These agreements...
