(author), Laplanche, Guillaume (author)This work aims to predict the microstructure of recrystallized medium and high-entropy alloys (MEAs and HEAs) with a face-centered cubic structure, in particular the density of annealing twins and their thickness. Eight MEAs and five HEAs from the Cr-Mn-Fe-Co-Ni system are considered, which have been cast, homogenized, cold-worked and...journal article 2024

den Besten, N.I. (author)Waterlogging is the accumulation of excess water in the rootzone. When soils are waterlogged the rootzone is either saturated or submerged with water. As a result, waterlogging prevents aeration of the rootzone which has adverse effects on crop growth. Waterlogging is an issue in both irrigated and rain-fed agriculture and crop productivity...doctoral thesis 2023

Atreya, V. (author)Dual-phase (DP) steels are an important class of advanced high-strength steels (AHSS) and constitute a major share of steels for the automotive industry. A microstructure consisting of hard martensite embedded in a soft ferritic matrix gives them a good combination of strength and ductility. The martensite formation in the microstructure from...doctoral thesis 2023

Jaarsma, Ruurd (author)Echosounders are used to monitor suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) in coastal management studies and to monitor dredge plumes. Due to the dependency on sediment properties like particle size, shape and density, performance of single frequency measurements is limited when sediment properties are changing.<br/><br/>Using multi-frequency...master thesis 2023

Bai, Q. (author), Mestdagh, S.M.F. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Simons, D.G. (author)To facilitate the conservation of seafloor habitats and planning of offshore activities, there is a growing need for mapping marine benthos in an effective and efficient way. Acoustic data acquired by multi-beam echosounders (MBES) have been extensively used for large-scale and high-resolution seafloor characterization. A deeper understanding of...journal article 2023

Bai, Q. (author), Mestdagh, S.M.F. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Amiri Simkooei, A. (author)Acoustic classification using single-beam and multi-beam echosounders has been widely applied in characterizing seabed sediments. Although previous studies have shown a better discrimination of fine and coarse sediments using multi-spectral echosounder data, analysis regarding comprehensive seabed sediment properties is still needed. In this...conference paper 2023

Mestdagh, S.M.F. (author), Bai, Q. (author), Snellen, M. (author)Detailed knowledge of both the sedimentological and ecological characteristics of the seafloor is essential when undertaking bottom-disturbing activities, but can be a challenge to obtain. Through backscatter data at different frequencies, collected with a multi-spectral multi-beam sonar, information on the structure of both the sediment...conference paper 2023

de Groot, Lucan (author), Xu, M. (author), Zuniga, Marco (author)We explore a new alternative for drones to gather information from sensors. Instead of using the traditional radio-frequency spectrum, whose broadcast nature makes it more difficult to poll specific objects, we utilize the light spectrum. In our system, the drone carries a light, and flies to an area that it is interested in polling. Only the...conference paper 2023

Sierra Soraluce, A. (author), Li, G. (author), Santofimia, Maria Jesus (author), Molina-Aldareguia, J. M. (author), Smith, A. (author), Muratori, M. (author), Sabirov, I. (author)Quenching and partitioning (Q&P) treatment has been proven effective in manufacturing advanced high strength steels with high content of retained austenite, showing the improved balance of high strength and sufficient ductility. This method has been very well elaborated for carbon steel processing over the last two decades. Though it can...journal article 2023

(author), Xiong, Jie (author), Giustiniano, Domenico (author)Radio-Frequency (RF) backscatter has emerged as a low-power communication technique. Backscatter systems either rely on active signal generators (spectrum efficient, but dedicated infrastructure) or existing ambient wireless transmissions (existing infrastructure, but spectrum inefficient). In this paper, we aim to make RF backscatter...conference paper 2023

Holzapfel, L.F.M. (author), Giagka, Vasiliki (author)Implantable devices need to communicate information to the outside world. For deep-seated miniaturized implants ultrasound communication can be favourable. However, implants need to operate during movement, and the selected communication scheme should be assessed accordingly. In this work, we implemented a simple protocol to transfer data...conference paper 2023

de Groot, Lucan (author)Visible Light Communication (VLC) has been gaining interest in the industry and academia for the last decade. VLC enables a high-speed communication alternative to conventional radio such as Bluetooth or WiFi and presents a solution to the 'spectrum crunch'. More recently, the combination of energy harvesting and VLC has been explored to enable...master thesis 2022

Koop, L. (author)Because the seafloor is a complex ecosystem, a multidisciplinary approach must be adopted in order to produce comprehensive habitat maps. Such multidisciplinary projects have been lacking for the Dutch area of the North Sea. To address this lack, the Distribution, structure and functioning of low resilience seafloor communities and habitats of...doctoral thesis 2022

Vermunt, P.C. (author), Steele-Dunne, S.C. (author), Khabbazan, S. (author), Kumar, V. (author), Judge, Jasmeet (author)For a good interpretation of radar backscatter sensitivity to vegetation water dynamics, we need to know which parts of the vegetation layer control that backscatter. However, backscatter sensitivity to different depths in the canopy is poorly understood. This is partly caused by a lack of observational data to describe the vertical moisture...journal article 2022
