Mokveld, T.O. (author)Genomics is a field devoted to understanding the differences in genetics between populations, individuals, and even within individuals. By constantly comparing and contrasting data from diverse sources, genomics can refine our understanding of life and identify new ways to improve our lives. However, this often presents technical and biological...doctoral thesis 2023

Tijs, B.H.A.H. (author)Thermoplastic composites enable new manufacturing techniques such as conduction welding to make the aviation industry more sustainable, while at the same time, provide great benefits to cost-efficient high-volume production. One of the benefits of welding is that it reduces the amount of mechanical fasteners required. Fastener-free joining also...doctoral thesis 2023

Birchler, Christian (author), Khatiri, Sajad (author), Derakhshanfar, P. (author), Panichella, Sebastiano (author), Panichella, A. (author)Testing with simulation environments helps to identify critical failing scenarios for self-driving cars (SDCs). Simulation-based tests are safer than in-field operational tests and allow detecting software defects before deployment. However, these tests are very expensive and are too many to be run frequently within limited time constraints...journal article 2023

Derakhshanfar, P. (author), Devroey, Xavier (author), Panichella, A. (author), Zaidman, A.E. (author), van Deursen, A. (author)Search-based approaches have been used in the literature to automate the process of creating unit test cases. However, related work has shown that generated tests with high code coverage could be ineffective, i.e., they may not detect all faults or kill all injected mutants. In this paper, we propose Cling, an integration-level test case...journal article 2023

van Meerten, M.C. (author), Kulahcioglu Ozkan, Burcu (author), Panichella, A. (author)Blockchain systems are prone to concurrency bugs due to the nondeterminism in the delivery order of messages between the distributed nodes. These bugs are hard to detect since they can only be triggered by a specific order or timing of concurrent events in the execution. <br/>Systematic concurrency testing techniques, which explore all possible...conference paper 2023

Sabzehee, F. (author), Amiri Simkooei, A. (author), Iran Pour, S. (author), Vishwakarma, B.D. (author), Kerachian, R. (author)The Urmia lake in north-west Iran has dried up to perilously low levels in the past two decades. In this study, we investigate the drivers behind the decline in lake water level with the help of in-situ and remote sensing data. We use total water storage (TWS) changes from the gravity recovery and climate experiment (GRACE) satellite mission....journal article 2023

Faucon, L.E.K. (author), Boot, T. (author), Riemslag, A.C. (author), Scott, S.P. (author), Liu, Ping (author), Popovich, V. (author)In this work, the hydrogen fatigue of pipeline steel X60, its girth welds and weld defects were investigated through in situ fatigue testing. A novel in situ gaseous hydrogen charging fatigue set-up was developed, which involves a sample geometry that mimics a small-scale pipeline with high internal hydrogen gas pressure. The effect of hydrogen...journal article 2023

Freites, Alfredo (author), Corbett, P. W.M. (author), Rongier, G. (author), Geiger, S. (author)Understanding the impact of fractures on fluid flow is fundamental for developing geoenergy reservoirs. Pressure transient analysis could play a key role for fracture characterization purposes if better links can be established between the pressure derivative responses (p′) and the fracture properties. However, pressure transient analysis is...journal article 2023

Nedeljković, Marija (author), Tošić, Nikola (author), Schlangen, E. (author), Fennis, Sonja (author)Demand for high quality recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) to offset the use of primary materials is significantly rising due to circular economy goals and high-value reuse of concrete. The quality of RCA significantly affects their availability for new concrete production due to the variability of parent concrete streams. The optimization of...journal article 2023

Applis, L.H. (author), Panichella, A. (author), Marang, R.J. (author)More machine learning (ML) models are introduced to the field of Software Engineering (SE) and reached a stage of maturity to be considered for real-world use; But the real world is complex, and testing these models lacks often in explainability, feasibility and computational capacities. Existing research introduced meta-morphic testing to...conference paper 2023

Xu, Z. (author), Ye, G. (author)One of the key problems that affect the durability of reinforced concrete structures is the corrosion of rebar induced by chloride. Despite the complicated transport mechanism of chloride ions in cementitious materials, diffusion is still the key mechanism of chloride ingress. The determination of the chloride diffusion coefficient will help to...journal article 2023

Winter, Levin N. (author), Buşe, Florena (author), de Graaf, Daan (author), von Gleissenthall, Klaus (author), Kulahcioglu Ozkan, Burcu (author)Byzantine fault-tolerant algorithms promise agreement on a correct value, even if a subset of processes can deviate from the algorithm arbitrarily. While these algorithms provide strong guarantees in theory, in practice, protocol bugs and implementation mistakes may still cause them to go wrong. This paper introduces ByzzFuzz, a simple yet...journal article 2023

Cheng, Xiaoyang (author), Ibraim, Erdin (author), Liu, Haoyuan (author), Pisano, F. (author), Diambra, Andrea (author)This paper uses 3D numerical analyses to investigate the stress path experienced by soil elements around large diameter piles in sand subjected to monotonic drained lateral loading. Inspection of the loading-induced stresses in the soil revealed the multiaxial nature of these stress paths, which are characterised by rotation of one or more...journal article 2023

Amoroso, Pedro (author), Vrcek, Aleks (author), de Rooij, Matthijn B. (author)This study introduces a method based on fine torque control to evaluate traction in rolling—liding line contacts under small slide-to-roll ratios (SRRs). To accomplish this, we engineered an innovative testing machine—a two-roller tribometer capable of precisely applying resisting torques to one of the rollers. Two types of tests were designed...journal article 2023

Chao, C. (author), Jommi, C. (author), Muraro, S. (author)Element testing of soft soils is challenging due to the large strains attained in the pre-failure range. Besides the heterogeneity of natural samples, the set-up configuration is the main driving factor for non-homogenous response. Stress, strain and pore pressure non-uniformities induced by the loading system affect the observed behaviour and...conference paper 2023
