Bakker, Tije M. (author), Antolínez, José A. Á. (author), Leijnse, T.W.B. (author), Pearson, S.G. (author), Giardino, Alessio (author)Tropical Cyclones (TCs) are singular storms causing intense wind, large waves, extreme water levels, and heavy rainfall. TCs prove every year to be one of the most destructive natural phenomena worldwide. The quantitative assessment of the hazards resulting from TCs (i.e., flooding and extreme winds) is challenging since satellite data are...journal article 2022

Ökmen, Ö. (author), Bosch-Rekveldt, M.G.C. (author), Bakker, H.L.M. (author), Leijten, M. (author), Andringa, Lise (author)In today’s construction projects, which are getting more complex as a consequence of especially technical, organizational, and external aspects, complexities are considered a major source of risks. Moreover, risks may turn to complexity-creating elements and propagate additional risks through a bidirectional interaction. Complex construction...journal article 2022

Boorsma, Nina (author), Peck, David (author), Bakker, Tanya (author), Bakker, C.A. (author), Balkenende, R. (author)Remanufacturing offers an approach to extend product lifetime beyond its first use. After restoring products to original quality, they are reintroduced to the market. To make products more suited for this approach, and to increase resource-efficiency, design for remanufacturing can be incorporated for new product development. Academic...journal article 2022

Bakker, N.J. (author), Assen, Suzanne (author), Rasia, Alix (author), Barreau, Nicolas (author), Weeber, A.W. (author), Theelen, Mirjam (author)Partial shading of PV modules can lead to degradation of the shaded cells. The degradation originates from a reverse bias voltage over the shaded cells. In order to mitigate reverse bias damage in Cu(In, Ga)Se2 (CIGS) modules, a good understanding of the fundamental mechanisms governing the reverse characteristic is required. In this study, a...journal article 2022

Bakker, Jesse (author)Noise pollution is a growing health concern in cities, especially in busy streets with parallel reflective facades, known as urban street canyons. Here, high flows of vehicular traffic generate a broadband noise, with high noise levels in the low-frequency (LF) spectrum. In the canyons, noise decays slowly due to multiple reflections. To counter...master thesis 2021

Bakker, Christiaan (author)Vacuum extraction is a form of assisted vaginal birth where a vacuum cup is attached onto the fetal head by means of suction on which traction force is then exerted to facilitate birth. Vacuum extraction is often regarded as a safer option than the cesarean section and forceps delivery, due to decreased risk of maternal en fetal complications....master thesis 2021

Bakker, Geert (author)Microgrids are a promising tool that can help transition the electricity grid towards a smart grid. They can provide significant benefits to the power grid in the form of increased reliability and flexibility. The microgrid controller sets the electricity consumption and generation of all controllable devices within the microgrid and controls...master thesis 2021

Inglezaki, Katerina (author), Bakker, Boris (author), Petter, Lilly (author), Elango, oviya (author), Erami, Yoran (author)The future poses a major problem of feeding 9 billion people by 2050, while the current system of agriculture in itself is unsustainable and demands resources which exceed the planetary boundaries. Further continuing this trend of exploitation and destruction of ecology will only worsen the planetary stresses the Anthropocene has established....student report 2021

Bakker, Michael (author)Design decisions which are made in the preliminary ship design phase have a significant influence on the performance and total cost of a ship. These design decisions are mostly made with very little knowledge of the ship design problem. In fact, it is the personal experience of the naval architect which plays a significant role in this phase of...master thesis 2021

Bakker, Leander (author)Hospitals fulfill an important function within the healthcare systems, providing complex and specialized care. Healthcare continues to evolve into more effective forms of care and thus benefiting those in need. While care changes the physical hospital rarely does, resulting in hospital architecture which leaks the quality to contribute to and...master thesis 2021

(author)Hyaluronan is a biopolymer that is essential for many biological processes in the human body, like the regulation of tissue lubrication and inflammatory responses. Here, we study the behavior of hyaluronan at aqueous surfaces using heterodyne-detected vibrational sum-frequency generation spectroscopy (HD-VSFG). Low-molecular-weight hyaluronan...journal article 2021

Ökmen, Ö. (author), Bosch-Rekveldt, M.G.C. (author), Bakker, H.L.M. (author)Scheduling of a construction project using an activity network can be done using the Critical Path Method (CPM). CPM scheduling, since it was first developed in the USA in 1950’s, has been widely applied in various sectors including the construction sector. CPM, however, is incapable of reflecting the influence of uncertainty on schedules and...conference paper 2021
