Smit, J.J. (author), Andritsch, T. (author), Chevtchenko, O.A. (author)Assets in high voltage technology have to meet harsh service conditions over long lifetimes of 40 years or more. Due to environmental concerns, substitution of conventional insulating materials becomes a necessity. Because robustness and sustainability are serious requirements, only few new materials are really breaking through. At present some...journal article 2012

Smit, G. (author), Bongers, R.M. (author), Van der Sluis, C.K. (author), Plettenburg, D.H. (author)Quantitative data on the mechanical performance of upper-limb prostheses are very important in prostheses development and selection. The primary goal of this study was to objectively evaluate the mechanical performance of adult-size voluntary opening (VO) prosthetic terminal devices and select the best tested device. A second goal was to see...journal article 2012

Smit, P.B. (author), Janssen, T.T. (author)Wave fields traveling through a varying medium (e.g. topography, currents), can develop well-defined focal zones and caustics, where the wave field is highly coherent and wave statistics vary rapidly. However, the presence and evolution of such coherent structures in the wave field are not resolved in a quasi-homogeneous description of the wave...conference paper 2011

(author)For the design of cost-effective coastal defence a precise estimate is needed of the 1/10 000 per year storm surge. A more precise estimate requires more observations. Therefore, the three greatest storm surges that hit the northern part of the Holland Coast in the 18th century are reconstructed. The reconstructions are based on paintings,...journal article 2011

Kochetov, R. (author), Korobko, A.V. (author), Andritsch, T. (author), Morshuis, P.H.F. (author), Picken, S.J. (author), Smit, J.J. (author)In this paper the thermal conductivity of epoxy-based composite materials is analysed. Two and three-phase Lewis–Nielsen models are proposed for fitting the experimental values of the thermal conductivity of epoxy-based polymer composites. Various inorganic nano- and microparticles were used, namely aluminium oxide, aluminium nitride, magnesium...journal article 2011

Baarveld, M.Y. (author), Smit, M. (author)Due to technological, economic and spatial developments, various inner-city industrial areas have lost their former use and their original economic value. Many of these areas have elements of cultural-historical value. Preserving this cultural heritage means managing it for the benefit of current and future generations, and by doing so -...conference paper 2011

Martin, C.A. (author), Smit, R.H.M. (author), Van Egmond, R. (author), Van der Zant, H.S.J. (author), Van Ruitenbeek, J.M. (author)We present a modular high-vacuum setup for the electrical characterization of single molecules down to liquid helium temperatures. The experimental design is based on microfabricated mechanically controllable break junctions, which offer control over the distance of two electrodes via the bending of a flexible substrate. The actuator part of the...journal article 2011

Smit, M. (author), Reniers, A. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author)Nearshore sandbars appear with various patterns which may change over time. From observations, these changes seem to be related to changes in hydrodynamic conditions, although observed length scales could not be related directly to occurring wave conditions. The current work investigated the role of both the concurrent and previous hydrodynamics...conference paper 2010

Smit, M.W.J. (author)The aim of this study is to understand whether hydrodynamic processes or geometrical characteristics play a dominant role in the response of the nearshore sandbar system to hydrodynamic conditions. To that end a depth-averaged (2DH) process-based model has been used to compute the morphological evolution of nearshore sandbars. The morphological...doctoral thesis 2010
