Carzana, L. (author), Visser, P.N.A.M. (author), Heiligers, M.J. (author)Solar sailing is a spacecraft propulsion method relying solely on solar radiation pressure to provide thrust and is therefore propellantless by nature. Although it represents a practical and promising propulsion system particularly suited for heliocentric flight regimes, the majority of sailcraft missions flown to date have remained Earth...journal article 2022

Li, Z. (author), Homborg, A.M. (author), Gonzalez Garcia, Y. (author), Kosari, A. (author), Visser, Peter (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author)The formation process of a lithium-based conversion layer on AA2024-T3 and its corrosion protective behavior are studied using electrochemical noise (EN). Wavelet transform, as well as noise resistance analysis, have been employed to interpret the EN data. The EN data confirmed five different stages during the conversion layer growth,...journal article 2022

(author), Sheinman, Michael (author), Fortunato, Angelo (author), Shah, Vandna (author), Hoogstraat, Marlous (author), Wessels, L.F.A. (author)Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is the most common form of preinvasive breast cancer and, despite treatment, a small fraction (5–10%) of DCIS patients develop subsequent invasive disease. A fundamental biologic question is whether the invasive disease arises from tumor cells in the initial DCIS or represents new unrelated disease. To address...journal article 2022

(author)The MICROSCOPE mission was designed to test the weak equivalence principle (WEP), stating the equality between the inertial and the gravitational masses, with a precision of 10-15 in terms of the Eötvös ratio η. Its experimental test consisted of comparing the accelerations undergone by two collocated test masses of different compositions as...journal article 2022

(author), Riva, R.E.M. (author)A devastating tsunami struck Palu Bay in the wake of the 28 September 2018 M<sub>w</sub> = 7.5 Palu earthquake (Sulawesi, Indonesia). With a predominantly strike-slip mechanism, the question remains whether this unexpected tsunami was generated by the earthquake itself, or rather by earthquake-induced landslides. In this study we examine the...journal article 2022

van der Rest, C.R. (author), Poulsen, C.B. (author), Rouvoet, A.J. (author), Visser, Eelco (author), Mosses, P.D. (author)Specifying and mechanically verifying type safe programming languages requires significant effort. This effort can in theory be reduced by defining and reusing pre-verified, modular components. In practice, however, existing approaches to modular mechanical verification require many times as much specification code as plain, monolithic...journal article 2022

Zwaan, A.S. (author), van Antwerpen, H. (author), Visser, Eelco (author)Fast analysis response times in IDEs are essential for a good editor experience. Incremental type-checking can provide that in a scalable fashion. However, existing techniques are not reusable between languages. Moreover, mutual and dynamic dependencies preclude traditional approaches to incrementality. This makes finding automatic approaches to...journal article 2022

Doijode, P.S. (author), Hickel, S. (author), van Terwisga, T.J.C. (author), Visser, K. (author)This paper introduces a machine learning approach for optimizing propellers. The method aims to improve the computational cost of optimization by reducing the number of evaluations required to find solutions. This is achieved by directing the search towards design clusters with good performance, i.e. high propulsive efficiency and low...journal article 2022

Meinke, K. (author), Stam, D.M. (author), Visser, P.M. (author)Context. In the near future, dedicated telescopes will observe Earth-like exoplanets in reflected parent starlight, allowing their physical characterization. Because of the huge distances, every exoplanet will remain an unresolved, single pixel, but temporal variations in the pixel’s spectral flux contain information about the planet’s surface...journal article 2022

(author)When reconstructing natural satellites' ephemerides from space missions' tracking data, the dynamics of the spacecraft and natural bodies are often solved for separately, in a decoupled manner. Alternatively, the ephemeris generation and spacecraft orbit determination can be performed concurrently. This method directly maps the available data...journal article 2022

Vasilikis, N. (author), Geertsma, R.D. (author), Visser, K. (author)Ship designers hardly ever receive feedback from the actual operation of their designs apart from sea acceptance trials. Similarly, crews operating the vessels do not receive a clear picture of the energy performance and environmental footprint of different options. This paper proposes a methodology based on operational data from continuous...journal article 2022
