Kamran, K. (author), Van Soestbergen, M. (author), Pel, L. (author)The removal of salt from porous building materials under the influence of an applied voltage gradient normally results in high pH gradients due to the formation of protons and hydroxyl ions at the electrodes. The formed acidic and alkaline regions not only lead to disintegration of the porous material, but also affect the salt transport. In this...journal article

Pikulin, D.I. (author), Nazarov, Y.V. (author)Motivated by recent developments in the field of one-dimensional topological superconductors, we investigate the topological properties of s-matrix of generic superconducting junctions where dimension should not play any role. We argue that for a finite junction the s-matrix is always topologically trivial. We resolve an apparent contradiction...journal article

Doerr, C. (author), Tang, S. (author), Blenn, N. (author), Van Mieghem, P. (author)The key feature of online social networks is the ability of users to become active, make friends and interact with those around them. Such interaction is typically perceived as critical to these platforms; therefore, a significant share of research has investigated the characteristics of social links, friendship relations, community structure,...conference paper 2011

(author)The ammonia-oxidizing bacterial community (AOB) was investigated in two types of laboratory-scale bioreactors performing partial oxidation of ammonia to nitrite or nitrate at high (80 mM) to extremely high (428 mM) concentrations of ammonium bicarbonate. At all conditions, the dominant AOB was affiliated to the Nitrosomonas europaea lineage as...journal article 2011

Abbas, L.K. (author), Rui, X. (author), Marzocca, P. (author), Abdalla, M. (author), De Breuker, R. (author)In this paper, the effect of the system parameters on the flutter of a curved skin panel forced by a supersonic/hypersonic unsteady flow is numerically investigated. The aeroelastic model investigated includes the third-order piston theory aerodynamics for modeling the flow-induced forces and the Von Kármán nonlinear strain-displacement relation...journal article 2011

Su, J.F. (author), Wang, X.Y (author), Huang, Z. (author), Zhao, Y.H. (author), Yuan, X.Y. (author)Microencapsulated phase change materials (microPCMs) have been widely applied in solid matrix as thermal-storage or temperature-controlling functional composites. The thermal conductivity of these microPCMs/matrix composites is an important property need to be considered. In this study, a series of microPCMs have been fabricated using the in...journal article 2011

Mirzaee, H. (author), Ryan, J.K. (author), Kirby, R.M. (author)The discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods provide a high-order extension of the finite volume method in much the same way as high-order or spectral/hp elements extend standard finite elements. However, lack of inter-element continuity is often contrary to the smoothness assumptions upon which many post-processing algorithms such as those used in...journal article 2011

(author), Oefner, P.J. (author)A sensitive, selective, and comprehensive method for the quantitative determination of tryptophan and 18 of its key metabolites in serum, urine, and cell culture supernatants was developed. The analytes were separated on a C18 silica column by reversed-phase liquid chromatography and detected by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry...journal article 2011

Elfeki, A.M.M. (author), Uffink, G.J.M. (author), Lebreton, S. (author)The combined influence of temporal fluctuations and spatial heterogeneity on non-reactive solute transport mechanisms in porous media can be understood by performing simulations of steady and unsteady flow and transport in heterogeneous media. The study focuses on issues such as the degree of heterogeneity, correlation length, separation of the...journal article 2011

Kolfschoten, G.L. (author), De Vreede, G.J. (author), Pietron, L.R. (author)This paper presents a training approach to support the deployment of collaboration process support according to the Collaboration Engineering approach. In Collaboration Engineering, practitioners in an organization are trained to facilitate a specific collaborative work practice on a recurring basis. To transfer the complex skill set of a...journal article 2011

Nazarov, S.A. (author), Slutskij, A.S. (author), Sweers, G.H. (author)Asymptotically optimal Korn inequalities are derived for a composite material that consists of two families of stiff rods surrounded by a homogeneous soft material. The composite plate is fixed through the protruding stiff rods only. The asymptotic behaviour is shown to be crucially different for families of connected rods and for those where...journal article 2012

Paris, R. (author), Thurner, T. (author), Berndorfer, T. (author), Yoo, H.W. (author), Schitter, G. (author)Due to their reconfigurability and sensor-near signal processing, smart cameras are ideally suited for applications in optical metrology. This article describes ongoing research activities in this area and demonstrates the efficient implementation of complex algorithms on limited hardware through intelligent systems integration. This enables the...journal article 2012

Steininger, J. (author), Kuiper, S. (author), Schitter, G. (author), Ito, S. (author)In atomic force microscopy (AFM) high-performance and high precision control of the scanning-system is crucial. At high imaging speeds the dynamic behaviour of the scanner may cause imaging artefacts limiting the maximum imaging rate. This contribution discusses recent improvements for faster imaging by utilizing modern mechatronic and control...journal article 2012

Glas, E. (author)Using history of mathematics for studying concepts, methods, problems and other internal features of the discipline may give rise to a certain tension between descriptive adequacy and educational demands. Other than historians, educators are concerned with mathematics as a normatively defined discipline. Teaching cannot but be based on a pre...journal article 2012

Ge, X. (author), Wang, H. (author)Many networks are characterized by the presence of communities, densely intra-connected groups with sparser inter-connections between groups. We propose a community overlay network representation to capture large-scale properties of communities. A community overlay Go can be constructed upon a network G, called the underlying network, by (a)...journal article 2012

Eickhoff, C. (author), De Vries, A.P. (author)Crowdsourcing successfully strives to become a widely used means of collecting large-scale scientific corpora. Many research fields, including Information Retrieval, rely on this novel way of data acquisition. However, it seems to be undermined by a significant share of workers that are primarily interested in producing quick generic answers...journal article 2012

(author)The organisational specification of a multi-agent system supports agents’ effectiveness in attaining their purpose, or prevent certain undesired behaviour from occurring. This requires that agents are able to find out about the organisational purpose and description and decide on its appropriateness for their own objectives. Organisational...journal article 2012

Nevejan, C. (author), Brazier, F. (author)Witnessing in merging biological, social and algorithmic realities is crucial to trust, as modelled in the YUTPA framework. Being witness and bearing witness is fundamental to human interaction. System participation in human communities of practice challenges the notion of witnessing and therefore the ability to build trust. Nevertheless,...journal article 2012
