Effect of external vehicle perturbations on tactile perception by electrovibration

Navigating touchscreens in vehicles becomes increasingly challenging when subjected to external perturbations like air turbulence or bumpy roads. These perturbations can lead to a loss in task performance, reduced finger accuracy, and increased frustration among users. To address these issues, electrovibration has emerged as a promising...

Structural Optimization of the Monopile Installation Frame Design

Wind energy plays an important role in the global energy supply and is obtained by wind turbines placed on- and offshore. The expected growth of offshore wind farms will generate a lot of work in the future. Seaway Heavy Lifting is an offshore company which offers Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Installation (EPCI) solutions worldwide...

Limiting and shock detection for discontinuous Galerkin solutions using multiwavelets

Many areas such as climate modeling, shallow water equations, and computational fluid dynamics use nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDE’s) to describe the behaviour of some unknown quantity. In general, the solutions of these equations contain shocks, or develop discontinuities. To solve these equations, various types of...

Numerical modeling of sediment transport over hydraulic structures

Hydraulic structures are present in the designs of different Room for the River projects in the Netherlands. Examples are longitudinal weirs, groins, summer dikes and weirs in the inlet of a side channel. Morphological simulations with Delft3D are frequently carried out to investigate the effect of such projects on for example hindrance for...
