Altiparmaki, O. (author), Kleinherenbrink, M. (author), Naeije, M.C. (author), Slobbe, D.C. (author), Visser, P.N.A.M. (author)This article shows the first spectral analysis of fully-focused Synthetic Aperture Radar (FFSAR) altimetry data with the objective of studying backscatter modulations caused by swells. Swell waves distort the backscatter in altimetry radargrams by means of velocity and range bunching. These swell signatures are visible in the tail of the...journal article 2022

Ren, S. (author), Liu, X. (author), Lin, P. (author), Erkens, S. (author)This study investigated the effects of swelling-degradation degree on the rheological properties and thermal pyrolysis behaviors of crumb rubber modified bitumen (CRMB). The equilibrium viscosity of CRMB in 160 ◦Cswelling process is 10.5 Pa·s at 8 h. During the 200℃-degradation procedure, the viscosity increased to a maximum value of 20.58 Pa·s...journal article 2022

Mohanan, Vaisakh Vilavinalthundil (author), Mak, H.Y.L. (author), Gurung, Nishan (author), Xu, Qin (author)Soft polymeric gels are susceptible to buckling-induced instabilities due to their great compliance to surface deformations. The instability patterns at soft interfaces have great potential in engineering functional materials with unique surface properties. In this work, we systematically investigated how swelling-induced instability patterns...journal article 2022

Subramanian, N. (author), Nielsen Lammers, Laura (author)Crystalline hydrates of swelling clay minerals (smectites) exhibit a strong coupling between their ion exchange and hydration/dehydration reactions. The uptake or removal of water from smectite interlayers as a result of a change in the environmental conditions also leads to the partitioning of cations. Three factors, the solid ion...journal article 2022

Wang, H. (author), Apostolidis, P. (author), Zhu, Jiqing (author), Liu, X. (author), Scarpas, Athanasios (author), Erkens, S. (author)Waste tire rubber has been incorporated into asphalt modification for decades due to its various benefits. There are two main mechanisms during bitumen–rubber interaction: rubber swelling and chemical degradation. This study surveys these two processes from the viewpoint of polymer science. The kinetics of rubber dissolution and...journal article 2020

Wang, H. (author), Liu, X. (author), Zhang, H. (author), Apostolidis, P. (author), Erkens, S. (author), Scarpas, Athanasios (author)Crumb rubber modified bitumen (CRMB) can be considered as a binary composite system where rubber particles are embedded in the bitumen matrix. The bitumen-rubber interaction process (mainly swelling) significantly changes the mechanical properties of both bitumen and rubber phases. This study aims to predict the complex moduli of CRMB binders...journal article 2020

Hadi Mosleh, Mojgan (author), Turner, Matthew (author), Sedighi, Majid (author), Vardon, P.J. (author)Uncertainties exist on the efficiency of CO<sub>2</sub> injection and storage in deep unminable coal seems due to potential reduction in the permeability of coal that is induced by CO<sub>2</sub> adsorption into the coal matrix. In addition, there is a limited knowledge about the stability of CO<sub>2</sub> stored in coal due to changes in...journal article 2018

Lv, Leyang (author), Schlangen, E. (author), Xing, Feng (author)Water ingress into cracked concrete structures is a serious problem, as it can cause leakage and reinforcement corrosion and thus reduce functionality and safety of the structures. In this study, the application of water-swelling rubber particles for providing the cracked concrete a self-sealing function was developed. The feasibility of...journal article 2017

Hollander, W. (author)The crew of the Razende Bol had experienced that their work conditions were worse than measured by the waverider. They concluded that the wave height measured by the waverider should be multiplied with a factor of 1.5 to find the real wave conditions in the working area. A number of reasons have been discussed, but only a hypothesis was...report 2014

Holthuijsen, L.H. (author), Powell, M.D. (author), Pietrzak, J.D. (author)Waves breaking at the ocean surface are important to the dynamical, chemical and biological processes at the air-sea interface. The traditional view is that the white capping and aero-dynamical surface roughness increase with wind speed up to a limiting value. This view is fundamental to hurricane forecasting and climate research but it has...journal article 2012
