Zhao, D (author), Asadi, Kamal (author), Groen, W.A. (author), Blom, PWM (author), de Leeuw, D.M. (author)A homogeneous ferroelectric single crystal exhibits only two remanent polarization states that are stable over time, whereas intermediate, or unsaturated, polarization states are thermodynamically instable. Commonly used ferroelectric materials however, are inhomogeneous polycrystalline thin films or ceramics. To investigate the stability of...journal article 2016

Pozo, Susana Del (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Rodríguez-Gonzálvez, Pablo (author), Blom, J.C. (author), González-Aguilera, Diego (author)Variation in the mineral composition of rocks results in a change of their spectral response capable of being studied by imaging spectroscopy. This paper proposes the use of a low-cost handy sensor, a calibrated visible-very near infrared (VIS-VNIR) multispectral camera for the recognition of different geological formations. The spectral data...journal article 2015

Orru, C. (author), Chavarrias Borras, V. (author), Ferrara, V. (author), Stecca, G. (author), Blom, A. (author)A flume experiment was conducted to examine the evolution of a sand-gravel reach under a lack of sediment supply. A bed composed of a bimodal sediment mixture was installed with a uniform slope and an gradual fining pattern. At the upstream end of the flume the initial bed consisted of 100% gravel, which decreased stepwise (10% steps) in...conference paper 2015

Fernandes, O. (author), Blom, D.S. (author), Frey, S. (author), Van Zuijlen, A.H. (author), Bijl, H. (author), Ertl, T. (author)We present an integrated in-situ visualization approach for partitioned multi-physics simulation of fluid-structure interaction. The simulation itself is treated as a black box and only the information at the fluid-structure interface is considered, and communicated between the fluid and solid solvers with a separate coupling tool. The...conference paper 2015

Blom, D.S. (author), Krupp, V. (author), Van Zuijlen, A.H. (author), Klimach, H. (author), Roller, S. (author), Bijl, H. (author)Multi-physics simulations, such as fluid-structure-acoustics interaction (FSA), require a high performance computing environment in order to perform the simulation in a reasonable amount of computation time. Currently used coupling methods use a staggered execution of the fluid and solid solver [6], which leads to inherent load imbalances. In ...conference paper 2015

Blom, H.A.P. (author), Sharpanskykh, A. (author)There is broad consensus that situation awareness (SA) plays a key role in agent-based modelling of complex sociotechnical systems. However in the social sciences and human factors literature there are different views on what SA is and how it could be modelled. More specifically, one school of research considers SA as the process of gaining...journal article 2015

Stecca, G. (author), Siviglia, A. (author), Blom, A. (author)Sediment of different size are transported in rivers under the action of flow. The first and still most popular sediment continuity model able to deal with mixed sediment is the so-called active layer model proposed by Hirano (1971, 1972). In this paper, we consider the one-dimensional hydromorphodynamic model given by the Saint-Venant equations...journal article 2014

Blom, D.S. (author), Van Zuylen, A.H. (author), Bijl, H. (author)Strongly coupled partitioned fluid-structure interaction problems require multiple coupling iterations per time step. The fluid domain and the structure domain are solved multiple times in each time step such that the kinematic and dynamic interface conditions on the fluid-structure interface are satisfied. Quasi-Newton methods have been...conference paper 2014

Viparelli, E. (author), Blom, A. (author), Ferrer-Boix, C. (author), Kuprenas, R. (author)A one-dimensional model that is able to store the stratigraphy emplaced by a prograding delta is validated against experimental results. The laboratory experiment describes the migration of a Gilbert delta on a sloping basement into standing water, i.e., a condition in which the stratigraphy emplaced by the delta front is entirely stored in the...journal article 2014

Orru, C. (author), Chavarrias Borras, V. (author), Uijttewaal, W.S.J. (author), Blom, A. (author)Measurements of spatial and temporal changes in the grain-size distribution of the bed surface and substrate are crucial to improving the modelling of sediment transport and associated grain-size selective processes. We present three complementary techniques to determine such variations in the grain-size distribution of the bed surface in sand...journal article 2014

Walhout, W. (author), Wever, R. (author), Blom, E. (author), Addink-Dölle, L. (author), Tempelman, E. (author)Many entrepreneurial businesses have attempted to create value based on the residual material streams of third parties. Based on ‘waste’ materials they designed products, around which they built their company. Such activities have the potential to yield sustainable products. Many of such companies remain in the more artistic domain, with...conference paper 2013

Stecca, G. (author), Blom, A. (author)Modelling the morphodynamic evolution of rivers due to flow-driven sediment transport requires the adoption of a flow model, such as the shallow water equations, and a conservation equation for sediment mass (the Exner equation). When dealing with mixtures of grain sizes, one can account for the interaction among sediment transport, bed level...conference paper 2013
