Simons, L.P.A. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)Globally, the burden of disease is rising. High performance employees and organisations need to improve their health self-management options and skills. Unfortunately, there are an overwhelming number (> 500,000) of new health publications every year. We aim to design a health AI on top of Scholar Google, to support rapid employee do-it...journal article 2022

Vieira, A.E. (author), von den Hoff, B. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Simons, D.G. (author)The contribution of the engine and the airframe to the total noise generated by an aircraft varies with the operating conditions. Semi-empirical models are able to account for such variations but require detailed engine and airframe data as input that is not readily available for most aircraft types and operations. This hinders the validation of...journal article 2022

van As, K. (author), Simons, Bram A. (author), Kleijn, C.R. (author), Kenjeres, S. (author), Bhattacharya, N. (author)We study how the speckle contrast depends on scatterer velocity, with the goal of further developing laser speckle imaging as a quantitative measurement technique. To that end, we perform interferometric computer simulations on a dilute plug flow. The results of our numerical experiment, that we compare with known analytical expressions to...journal article 2022

Simons, D.G. (author), Besnea, I. (author), Mohammadloo, Tannaz H. (author), Melkert, J.A. (author), Snellen, M. (author)The impressive growth of the aviation industry and the number of flights entail several environmental repercussions, such as increased aircraft noise emissions. With the worrying number of complaints from the communities around airports comes also the distrust in numerical models used for aircraft noise prediction. In this study, we compare...journal article 2022

(author), Efendi, Joni (author), Elbanna, Ahmed E. (author), Dubernet, Pierpaolo (author), Abidin, Hasanuddin Z. (author)Hazardous tsunamis are known to be generated predominantly at subduction zones. However, the 2018 Mw 7.5 Palu (Indonesia) earthquake on a strike-slip fault generated a tsunami that devastated the city of Palu. The mechanism by which this tsunami originated from such an earthquake is being debated. Here we present near-field ground motion (GPS...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

Simons, G.W.H. (author)Downstream reuse of previously withdrawn water resources is a common phenomenon across river basins worldwide, particularly those with (semi-)arid climate conditions and intensive water resources development. Water reuse often occurs unplanned, remains undetected, and as a result is insufficiently considered in water saving attempts, water...doctoral thesis 2021

Koop, L. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Simons, D.G. (author)In this paper, object-based image analysis classification methods are developed that do not rely on backscatter in order to classify the seafloor. Instead, these methods make use of bathymetry, bathymetric derivatives, and grab samples for classification. The classification is performed on image object statistics. One of the methods utilizes...journal article 2021

Palu earthquake is a remarkable strike-slip event due to its nature as a shallow supershear fault rupture across several segments and a destructive tsunami that followed coseismic deformation. GPS offsets in the wake of the 2018 earthquake display a transient in the surface motions of northwest Sulawesi. A...journal article 2021

Simons, E.C. (author)Armour systems for ballistic protection can be made from many materials. One type of material used in armour systems is ceramic. Ceramic materials, such as alumina and silicon carbide, can be beneficial in an armour system because of their high hardness and relatively low weight. The high hardness of the ceramic potentially causes a projectile...doctoral thesis 2020
