Ekstrand, Michael D. (author), Beattie, Lex (author), Pera, M.S. (author), Cramer, Henriette (author)Information Retrieval (IR) systems have a wide range of impacts on consumers. We offer maps to help identify goals IR systems could—or should—strive for, and guide the process of scoping how to gauge a wide range of consumer-side impacts and the possible interventions needed to address these effects. Grounded in prior work on scoping...conference paper 2024

Fraaije, A. (author), van der Meij, Marjoleine G. (author), Vermeeren, A.P.O.S. (author), Kupper, Frank (author), Broerse, Jacqueline E.W. (author)The ‘smart city’ vision is popular, but it lacks citizen perspectives. The aim of this study was to gain insight into whether and how art-based citizen engagement can create more room for citizen perspectives in smart cities by developing and testing an art-based citizen engagement project in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. To that end, a...journal article 2023

Alcaraz, Mathilde (author), Alderliesten, R.C. (author), Mosleh, Yasmine (author)Fibre metal laminates (FML) were originally developed as a hybrid material, to create synergy between the impact resistance of metals and excellent fatigue and corrosion resistance of fibre reinforced polymers, and to overcome the shortcomings of monolithic materials. Yet, the scope of the FML concept is predominantly limited to GLAss REinforced...abstract 2023

Van Vuure, Aart Willem (author), Mosleh, Yasmine (author), Vanderbeke, Jan (author), Verpoest, Ignaas (author)Silk fibers combine good stiffness and strength with a very high strain to failure and are as such highly promising to realize composites with high impact resistance. It is shown that to realize this potential it is quite beneficial to employ matrix materials of high strain to failure, particularly thermoplastic matrices. High impact...journal article 2023

Tao, N. (author), Anisimov, A. (author), Elenbaas, Marcel (author), Groves, R.M. (author)The use of thick composites and sandwich structures is increasing rapidly in marine, aerospace, and wind energy industries [1–3]. For example in the marine sector, sandwich structures consisting of glassfiber laminate skins bonded to a foam core are attractive because of the advantages of being light-weight, resistant to corrosion and underwater...conference paper 2022

Broer, Agnes A.R. (author), Galanopoulos, Georgios (author), Benedictus, R. (author), Loutas, Theodoros (author), Zarouchas, D. (author)Conducting damage diagnostics on stiffened panels is commonly performed using a single SHM technique. However, each SHM technique has both its strengths and limitations. Rather than straining the expansion of single SHM techniques going beyond their intrinsic capacities, these strengths and limitations should instead be considered in their...journal article 2021

van Dam, S.S. (author), Sleeswijk Visser, F. (author), Bakker, C.A. (author)Designers play an important role in service transformation and the development of product-service systems by applying co-creation methods. This paper presents a case of how we applied co-creation in practice and the impact this has had on developing a circular product-service system. It details the method used in the co-creation process and...journal article 2021

(author)Recent developments in the concept of UAS operations in urban areas have led to risk concerns of UAS collision with human. To better understand this risk, head and neck injuries due to UAS collisions have been investigated by different research teams using crash dummies. Because of the limitations in biofidelity of a crash dummy, head injury...journal article 2020

Kozowyk, P.R.B. (author), Poulis, J.A. (author), Langejans, G.H.J. (author)Adhesives are an important yet often overlooked aspect of human tool use. Previous experiments have shown that compound resin/gum adhesive production by anatomically modern humans was a cognitively demanding task that required advanced use of fire, forward planning, and abstraction among other traits. Yet the oldest known adhesives were produced...journal article 2017

Liu, Y. (author), Janssen, G.C.A.M. (author)The wear of pipelines, used in slurry transport, results in high costs for maintenance and replacement. The wear mechanism involves abrasion, corrosion, impact, and the interaction among them. In this work, we study the effect of impact on the wear mechanism and wear rate. Results show that when the effect of impact is small, the wear mechanism...journal article 2017

Rotte, G.M. (author), Zverkhovskyi, Oleksandr (author), Kerkvliet, Maarten (author), van Terwisga, T.J.C. (author)Air lubrication techniques are very promising in reducing ship drag. It has been demonstrated that air cavity applications can realise propulsive power reduction percentages of 10-20% due to the reduction of the frictional resistance [1, 2]. However, a complete understanding of the two-phase flow physics involved with air cavity flows is still...conference paper 2016
