Cross-Sectional Validation of a Novel Computed Tomography-Based Carotid Mean Calcium Density Measurement

Background The purpose of this study was to validate a technique for measuring mean calcium density and to determine associations of cardiovascular risk factors with carotid calcium density. Methods and Results We performed a cross-sectional study in a random sample of 100 stroke-free participants from the population-based Rotterdam Study....

Monitoring Co2 Injection into Basaltic Reservoir Formations at the HellisheiÐi Geothermal Site in Iceland: Laboratory Experiments

In the ACT Consortium funded project SUCCEED, researchers study the potential for monitoring the process of (re-)injecting produced and captured CO2 into the Hellisheiði geothermal field for the aid of enhancing geothermal deployment as well as permanently storing CO2 through mineralization. The Hellisheiði site provides an excellent opportunity...

Double curved concrete printing: Printing on non-planar surfaces

It is no secret that there have been some great advances in the realm of concrete additive manufacturing. However, one of the major drawbacks of this fabrication technique is that the elements must be self-supporting during printing. While most other additive manufacturing materials can overcome this by using a secondary printed support...

Onderzoek naar de generieke productiviteitsontwikkeling in de reguleringsmethode van TenneT TSO BV

Dit rapport analyseert de reguleringsmethode van TenneT door de NMa en beantwoordt drie door de NMa voorgelegde vragen. De eerste vraag betreft de mate waarin de huidige reguleringsmethode leidt tot de juiste prikkels voor TenneT om de doelmatigheid van de bedrijfsvoering te bevorderen. De tweede vraag betreft de mate waarin de huidige...

Effect of Electron Traps on Scintillation of Praseodymium Activated Lu3Al5O12

In this paper we present the studies performed on a set of Lu3Al5O12:Pr (LuAG:Pr) crystals with praseodymium concentration between 1.5 and 10%, grown by the micro-pulling-down (muPD) technique. The research comprises the measurements of X-ray excited emission spectra and 137Cs gamma-ray pulse height spectra in a range from 78 to 600 K, and...
