Deinega, Mariia (author), Anghileri, E. (author), Wang, Yuanjie (author), Dijkstra, M.C.J. (author)Cities are responsible for a great amount of CO2 emissions related to transportation (CBS). However, the greatest amount of CO2 is caused by private transport and is mainly associated with peri-urban (the peri-urban area is a common place to live for the natural environment and also near accessibility to city facilities) and rural areas due to...student report 2024

Penners, Jorgi (author)The transverse stability of timber terraced houses can be provided by CLT stability walls where decoupled timber terraced houses are preferred to meet acoustic requirements leading to rather large thicknesses for the CLT stability walls and many large connections for anchorage to the foundation. The main goal of this research was to investigate...master thesis 2024

den Haan, Adriaan (author)With the ever so rapid transition towards renewable energy, the offshore electricity transmission system has to expand. Towards 2050, a meshed offshore network is seen as a cost-effective solution to bring electricity to shore. Although there is no "one size fits all", a Cross-Border Cost Allocation procedure is the designated procedure to...master thesis 2024

Papenhuijzen, Daan (author)The importance of climate change is getting increasingly more attention from all stakeholders in urban development. This results in the energy network operator being increasingly involved in the partnerships needed to realize new urban area development projects. Current projects have been experiencing delays due to the electricity grid not being...master thesis 2024

van Daalhuizen, Thomas (author)There is a need to broaden discussions on sustainable mobility beyond the prevalent focus on electric cars, particularly considering the challenges faced by border regions and marginalized groups that rely on public and soft transport. This study aims to fill this gap by examining the intricate dynamics of cross-border mobility transitions in...master thesis 2024

Kostaras, Christos (author), Pavlou, C. (author), Galiotis, Costas (author), Dassios, Konstantinos G. (author)As an emerging class of materials, nanocarbons have attracted significant interest for practical applications due to their remarkable mechanical, electrical and thermal properties coupled with high surface areas and tunable surface chemistry. However, challenges like high aspect ratios and poor dispersibility in polymer matrices hinder their...review 2024

Bouwmeester, W. (author), Fioranelli, F. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)Incoherent backscattering of mm-waves from natural rough surfaces is considered. A novel method is proposed to determine the statistical properties of surface scattering from range profile measurements. The method is based on modeling the road surface as a grid of uncorrelated scattering elements, described by normalized scattering matrices....journal article 2024

Hussein, Abdelrahman (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author), Kim, Byungki (author)In recent years, a new class of super saturated binary and ternary alloys have demonstrated the ability for the self-healing of creep-induced voids formed at the grain boundaries. However, a clear understanding of the parameters affecting the self-healing mechanism is still not yet complete. One of the main challenges is understanding the...journal article 2024

Xia, Z. (author), Booij, O. (author), Kooij, J.F.P. (author)We propose a novel end-to-end method for cross-view pose estimation. Given a ground-level query image and an aerial image that covers the query&#x0027;s local neighborhood, the 3 Degrees-of-Freedom camera pose of the query is estimated by matching its image descriptor to descriptors of local regions within the aerial image. The...journal article 2024

Li, Minglei (author), Peng, Shu (author), Nan, L. (author)We propose a concept of hybrid geometry sets for registering cross-source geometric data. Specifically, our method focuses on the coarse registration of geometric data obtained from laser scanning and photogrammetric reconstruction. Due to different characteristics (e.g., variations in noise levels, density, and scales), achieving accurate...journal article 2024

Veltman, M.M. (author), van Keulen, J. (author), Smits, A. E.H. (author), Voogt, J. M. (author)When addressing problems with wicked tendencies in higher professional education, students experience complexity, uncertainty, and value divergence. Furthermore, they are confronted with disciplinary, organisational, and sector boundaries. Prior research has revealed variability in students’ experiences and boundary-crossing behaviour when...journal article 2024

Kettler, T.T. (author), de Schipper, M.A. (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author)Projections of high rates of sea level rise have stimulated proposals for adaptation strategies with increasingly high nourishment volumes along sandy beaches. An underlying assumption is that coastal profiles respond rapidly to nourishments by redistributing sediments towards a (new) equilibrium shape. However, this perception may not be...journal article 2024

(author)Background: In baseball, repetitive pitching leads to medial elbow injuries, particularly to the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL). To prevent pitchers from UCL injuries, it is important to quantify the response to elbow stress. Repetitive elbow external valgus torque and muscular fatigue induced by repetitive pitching could affect markers of...journal article 2024

Maass Morales, C.E. (author), Stigter, Tibor (author), Fraser, Christina (author), van Breukelen, B.M. (author), Jewitt, G.P.W. (author)Attention on the use of transboundary aquifers (TBAs) and their cross-border impacts is growing as countries become increasingly concerned about their long-term water security. Cross-border impacts, in groundwater quality and quantity, tend to concentrate in specific parts of TBAs, as they largely depend on the transboundary flow dynamics...review 2024
