A power system is composed of various components such as generators, transformers, transmission lines, switching devices and loads. They have their mathematical model and graphical representation. Sometimes, a power system’s change of topology occurs due to events like short circuits, lightning striking a transformer, or a reconfiguration of the...

Task 3.3 of the REPAiR project is dealing with the linkages between socio-cultural and socio-moral features and social sensitiveness and awareness about general environmental issues, and particularly about waste and resource management. The basic assumption is that the different agents’ understandings and behaviors related to ecological...

Overland transport of goods mainly goes by road. Road freight transport, trucking in particular, has a large share in the energy consumption, CO2-emissions and air pollution by human activities. This will become an even bigger issue with the expected massive growth of road freight transport.<br/>Climate change mitigation asks for a major...

The optoelectronic properties of hybrid perovskites can be easily tailored by varying their components. Specifically, mixing the common short organic cation (methylammonium (MA)) with a larger one (e.g., butyl ammonium (BA)) results in 2-dimensional perovskites with varying thicknesses of inorganic layers separated by the large organic cation...

In Paris, France, December 2015, the Conference of the Parties (COP) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) invited the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to provide a &lt;q&gt;special report in 2018 on the impacts of global warming of 1.5 °C  above pre-industrial levels and related global...

Nanoparticles are increasingly applied in a range of fields, such as electronics, catalysis, energy and medicine, due to their small sizes and consequent high surface-volume ratio. In many applications, it is attractive to coat the nanoparticles with a layer of different materials in order to gain new functionalities. For instance, a coated...

Integrated Catchment Modelling aims to simulate jointly urban drainage systems, wastewater treatment plant and rivers. The effect of rainfall input uncertainties in the modelling of individual urban drainage systems has been discussed in several studies already. However, this influence changes when simultaneously simulating several urban...

Multiscale computational materials science has reached a stage where many complicated phenomena or properties that are of great importance to manufacturing can be predicted or explained. The word “ab initio study” becomes commonplace as the development of density functional theory has enabled the predictions to be independent of experimental...

A large number of new products and services, such as electric cars, solar panels, and electric boats are introduced and play an important role during sustainability transitions. However, when introduced, these new products do not fit with established aspects of society such as expectations, habits, and infrastructures, leading to low levels of...

Selective oxyfunctionalizations of inert C−H bonds can be achieved under mild conditions by using peroxygenases. This approach, however, suffers from the poor robustness of these enzymes in the presence of hydrogen peroxide as the stoichiometric oxidant. Herein, we demonstrate that inorganic photocatalysts such as gold–titanium dioxide...

Coherent Fourier scatterometry is an optical metrology technique that utilizes the measured intensity of the scattered optical field to reconstruct certain parameters of test structures written on a wafer with nano-scale accuracy. The intensity of the scattered field is recorded with a camera and this information is used to retrieve the...

Circulating fluidized beds (CFB) play a major role in the chemical industry especially as heterogeneous catalytic reactors. Research on hydrodynamic properties of Liquid - Solid CFBs (LSCFB) is significantly under-reported as compared to Gas - Solid CFBs (GSCFB). Steadily, prominent research is being established in fields like food industry ...

We present an 8-beam local oscillator (LO) for the astronomically significant [OI] line at 4.7 THz. The beams are generated using a quantum cascade laser (QCL) in combination with a Fourier phase grating. The grating is fully characterized using a third order distributed feedback (DFB) QCL with a single mode emission at 4.7 THz as the input....

A scientific consensus is emerging on the benefits of direct current (DC) distribution in medium voltage (MV) power systems of ships and cities. At least 50% space savings and increased power transfer capacity are estimated with enhanced voltage DC operation of electric cables. The goal of this research is to contribute to developing the...

Models and simulators have been widely used in urban contexts for many decades. The drawback of most current models is that they are normally designed for specific objectives, so the elements considered are limited and they do not take into account the potential synergies between related systems. The necessity of a framework to model complex...

LIKE many complex and time-critical domains, air traffic control (ATC) is facing a fundamental modernization that builds on the use of more advanced automation (represented by SESAR in Europe and NextGen in the United States). The current function allocation-based relationship between controller and machine is envisioned to evolve to a more...

Vorig jaar verdween de laatste nachttrein (in de zin van overnachtingstrein) uit Nederland. Het verdwijnen hiervan is een soort sluitstuk van een lange periode van afkalving van het aanbod van nacht- en andere langeafstandstreinen in West-Europa. Vertrokken 50 jaar geleden dagelijks nog 11 reguliere nachttreinen in Nederland, 30 jaar later was...

In Nederland is bij veel grotere treinstations een tekort aan stallingscapaciteit voor fietsen. Dit is het gevolg van zowel een stevige groei in het treingebruik als een toename van het marktaandeel van de fiets in de voor- en natransportmiddelen. In de paper worden de mogelijkheden verkend om het capaciteitstekort te verkleinen door een vorm...

Homes are renovated a number of times during their lifespan. Although we can regard each of these renovations as new, it is more prudent to implement a future-proof solution to renovation. <br/><br/>The purpose of this study is to gain an insight into how future-proof renovation solutions are for homes built between 1975 and 1991 that are...

Over the past decade, many different strategies were developed to introduce selfhealing properties in structural polymer composite materials. Although many of the investigated routes show promising results on an academic scale, the first commercially feasible self-healing structural polymer composite has yet to be developed. The main objective...
