Huijgens, L.J.G. (author)Requirements on ships are rapidly increasing. In particular, safety and environmental impact are under increasing scrutiny. At the same time, cost and profitability remain as important as they have ever been. These increasingly stringent constraints are beginning to pose problems during the design process. For example, the energy efficiency...doctoral thesis 2021

Bobbink, I. (author)The course AR1LA051, which is part of the landscape architecture master of the TU Delft, explores the water system of the Dutch lowlands. In a collaborative effort 15 students, split in seven teams, work together to transform a “boezem”-system on the fringe of Rotterdam. The individual efforts of each group and the overall group strategy are...report 2021

Xin, Haohui (author), Correia, José A.F.O. (author), Veljkovic, M. (author), Berto, Filippo (author)Accurately obtaining the material parameters of the damage model is very important for the ductile fracture simulation of steel structures made of high strength steel (HSS). The combination of micromechanics with the uncoupled phenomenological fracture model can be used to obtain the material parameters of ductile fracture locus only from the...journal article 2021

Recovery of rare earths from glass polishing waste for the production of aluminium-rare earth alloysBorra, C.R. (author), Vlugt, T.J.H. (author), Yang, Y. (author), Spooren, Jeroen (author), Nielsen, Peter (author), Amirthalingam, Murugaiyan (author), Offerman, S.E. (author)The circular economy demands waste utilization for the production of high-value products, and this requires the development of novel processing routes. In this study, rare earth (La and Ce) oxides were completely (>99%) recovered from polishing waste by a combined novel reductive acid leaching and alkali treatment process. About 70% of...journal article 2021

(author), Mulder, Max (author)Non-normal event resolution in-flight can be challenging on the flight crew with increased time pressure, workload, stress. Other competing tasks impose a risk on flight safety and burdens the decision-making process. Pilots rely on checklists to aid in their effort, which in its state-of-the-art form are presented on the dedicated Electronic...conference paper 2021

Palomba, Fabio (author), Tamburri, Damian Andrew (author), Arcelli Fontana, Francesca (author), Oliveto, Rocco (author), Zaidman, A.E. (author), Serebrenik, Alexander (author)Code smells are poor implementation choices applied by developers during software evolution that often lead to critical flaws or failure. Much in the same way, community smells reflect the presence of organizational and socio-Technical issues within a software community that may lead to additional project costs. Recent empirical studies...journal article 2021

Park, Shinkyu (author), Cáp, M. (author), Alonso-Mora, J. (author), Ratti, Carlo (author), Rus, Daniela (author)In this article, we propose a trajectory planning algorithm that enables autonomous surface vessels to perform socially compliant navigation in a city's canal. The key idea behind the proposed algorithm is to adopt an optimal control formulation in which the deviation of movements of the autonomous vessel from nominal movements of human...journal article 2021

Betge, J.N. (author), Droste, Barbera (author), Heres, Jacco (author), Tindemans, Simon H. (author)Identifying future congestion points in electricity distribution networks is an important challenge distribution system operators face. A proven approach for addressing this challenge is to assess distribution grid adequacy using probabilistic models of future demand. However, computational cost can become a severe challenge when evaluating...conference paper 2021

Yu, W. (author), Mahfouz, A.M.E.T.A. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author)The power of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) in detecting cell heterogeneity or developmental process is becoming more and more evident every day. The granularity of this knowledge is further propelled when combining two batches of scRNA-seq into a single large dataset. This strategy is however hampered by technical differences between...journal article 2021

Wierbos, M.J. (author), Knoop, V.L. (author), Bertini, R.L. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Congestion in bicycle traffic is a daily occurrence at many urban intersections. It is known that a higher density in the queue leads to a higher discharge rate. In theory, higher jam densities than those currently observed in practice are feasible. This leads to our hypothesis that the delay at intersections can be further reduced when cyclists...journal article 2021
