Hu, Zhongyang (author), Kuipers Munneke, Peter (author), Lhermitte, S.L.M. (author), Izeboud, M. (author), Van Den Broeke, Michiel (author)Accurately estimating the surface melt volume of the Antarctic Ice Sheet is challenging and has hitherto relied on climate modeling or observations from satellite remote sensing. Each of these methods has its limitations, especially in regions with high surface melt. This study aims to demonstrate the potential of improving surface melt...journal article 2021

Verma, Amrit Shankar (author), Jiang, Zhiyu (author), Ren, Zhengru (author), Hu, Weifei (author), Teuwen, Julie J.E. (author)The presence of rain-induced leading edge erosion of wind turbine blades (WTBs) necessitates the development of erosion models. One of the essential parameters for erosion modeling is the relative impact velocity between rain droplets and the rotating blade. Based on this parameter, the erosion damage rate of a WTB is calculated to estimate...journal article 2021
