Çetinay Iyicil, H. (author), Soltan, Saleh (author), Kuipers, F.A. (author), Zussman, Gil (author), Van Mieghem, P.F.A. (author)In this paper, we study cascading failures in power grids under the nonlinear AC and linearized DC power flow models. We numerically compare the evolution of cascades after single line failures under the two flow models in four test networks. The cascade simulations demonstrate that the assumptions underlying the DC model (e.g., ignoring power...journal article 2017

Alpeggiani, F. (author), Parappurath, N. (author), Verhagen, E. (author), Kuipers, L. (author)It is well known that the quasinormal modes (or resonant states) of photonic structures can be associated with the poles of the scattering matrix of the system in the complex-frequency plane. In this work, the inverse problem, i.e., the reconstruction of the scattering matrix from the knowledge of the quasinormal modes, is addressed. We develop...journal article 2017

(author), Singh, Chandramani (author), Turkovic, B. (author), van Wijk, Bryan (author)The Tactile Internet presently constitutes a vision of an Internet over which, in addition to current communications modalities, a sense of touch can be transported. In that case, people would no longer need to be physically near the systems they operate, but could control them remotely. The main problem that needs to be solved to realize the...journal article 2017

De, S. (author), Kuipers, J. A. M. (author), Peters, E. A. J. F. (author), Padding, J.T. (author)We investigate creeping flow of a viscoelastic fluid through a three dimensional random porous medium using computational fluid dynamics. The simulations are performed using a finite volume methodology with a staggered grid. The no slip boundary condition on the fluid-solid interface is implemented using a second order finite volume immersed...journal article 2017

Mahajan, V.V. (author), Nijssen, Tim M.J. (author), Fitzgerald, B. (author), Hofman, Jeroen (author), Kuipers, Hans (author), Padding, J.T. (author)Multiphase (gas-solid) flows are encountered in numerous industrial applications such as pharmaceutical, food, agricultural processing and energy generation. A coupled computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and discrete element method (DEM) approach is a popular way to study such flows at a particle scale. However, most of these studies deal with...journal article 2017

Kuipers, Derek (author), Terlouw, Gijs (author), Wartena, B.O. (author), Veer, Job (author), Prins, Jelle (author), Pierie, Jean Pierre EN (author)Background: The usefulness and importance of serious games and simulations in learning and behavior change for health and health-related issues are widely recognized. Studies have addressed games and simulations as interventions, mostly in comparison with their analog counterparts. Numerous complex design choices have to be made with serious...journal article 2017

Keulen, L. (author), van der Ham, LV (author), Kuipers, N.J.M. (author), Hanemaaijer, J.H. (author), Vlugt, T.J.H. (author), Kjelstrup, S (author)Membrane distillation is an attractive technology for production of fresh water from seawater. The MemPower®MemPower® concept, studied in this work, uses available heat (86 °C) to produce pressurized water (2.2 bar and 46 °C) by membrane distillation, which again can be used to power a turbine for co-production of electricity. We develop a non...journal article 2017

Buist, Kay A. (author), Jayaprakas, Pavithra (author), Kuipers, J.A.M. (author), Deen, Niels G. (author), Padding, J.T. (author)In granular flow operations, often particles are nonspherical. This has inspired a vast amount of research in understanding the behavior of these particles. Various models are being developed to study the hydrodynamics involving nonspherical particles. Experiments however are often limited to obtain data on the translational motion only. This...journal article 2017

Jansen, Bart (author), Goodwin, Timothy (author), Gupta, Varun (author), Kuipers, F.A. (author), Zussman, Gil (author)WebRTC has quickly become popular as a video conferencing platform, partly due to the fact that many browsers support it. WebRTC utilizes the Google Congestion Control (GCC) algorithm to provide congestion control for realtime communications over UDP. The performance during a WebRTC call may be influenced by several factors, including the...journal article 2017

Yang, S. (author), Trajanovski, S. (author), Kuipers, F.A. (author)Background Solving the shortest path and min-cut problems are key in achieving high-performance and robust communication networks. Those problems have often been studied in deterministic and uncorrelated networks both in their original formulations as well as in several constrained variants. However, in real-world networks, link weights (e.g.,...journal article 2016

Van de Bovenkamp, R. (author), Kuipers, F.A. (author), Van Mieghem, P.F.A. (author)When two viruses compete for healthy nodes in a simple network and both spreading rates are above the epidemic threshold, only one virus will survive. However, if we prevent the viruses from dying out, rich dynamics emerge. When both viruses are identical, one virus always dominates the other, but the dominating and dominated virus alternate. We...journal article 2014
