Self-healing short-circuits in organic light-emitting diodes and solar cells

Organic materials open the way for large-scale applications of Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLED) and solar cells (OPV). These materials can be large-scale processed using printing and coating on rigid and flexible substrates. The resulting devices can therefore be fabricated at low cost for various applications. Production yields suffer,...

Towards a Practical Application of Numerical Models to Predict Wave-Structure Interaction: An Initial Validation

A more detailed understanding of porous flow inside a rubble-mound structure may have potential benefits in breakwater design. Numerical models are expected to be a useful additional research tool in this field, provided that their calculation results can be validated against measurements. This paper presents the results of a systematic effort...

Notional Permeability

Different layer design of a rock slope and under layers has a large effect on the strengths on the rock slope itself. In the stability formula developed of VAN DER MEER [1988] this effect is represented by the term Notional Permeability with symbol P. A more open, or permeable, structure underneath the armour layer has the ability to dissipate...

Low-mobility transport of coarse-grained bed material under waves and currents

The Paintal (1967) formula can be used to estimate transport rates of coarse-grained bed material (such as stones from a bed protection) under low hydraulic loads just above the threshold of motion; the application however is limited to steady currents. This paper presents research aimed at extending the range of application to a combination of...

Numerical modelling of wave reflection and transmission in vertical porous structures

This paper presents the results of a systematic validation of numerical simulation of reflection and transmission of rubble-mound breakwater structures. The aim of the study is to provide a body of validation measurements for increasingly complex situations, starting simple and building up the comlexity in terms of breawater geometry, wave...

Estimation of parameters of linear systems using periodic test signals

Spatio-temporal variability of behavioral patterns in hydrology in meso-scale basins of the Rhineland Palatinate (1972–2002)

Changes in spatio-temporal rainfall patterns have an effect on the hydrological behavior of river basins, the magnitude of the effects depending among others on the physiographic basin characteristics. To assess climate and discharge fluctuations, a visualization tool was developed as a contribution to exploratory data analysis. The tool...

Drying Effects on Corrosion Properties of Cr(VI) and Cr(III) Treated Electrogalvanized Steel

Car drivers’ preferences for ISA policy measures

Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA), an in-vehicle system that can either warn the driver or directly limit the vehicle’s speed when the speed limit is reached, is generally believed to have a large potential to increase road safety. However, policy makers hesitate to take policy measures that may increase ISA use. Public acceptance of ISA or...

A Cramer-Rao lower bound for complex parameters

Drying Effects on Corrosion Properties of Cr(VI) and Cr(III) Treated Electrogalvanized Steel

Drying effects on corrosion performance of Cr(VI)- and Cr(III)-treated electro-galvanized steel have been studied in NaCl solution using potentiodynamic measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The Cr(VI) and the Cr(III) treated specimens were dried at three different temperatures: 60, 110 and 210°C. The surface layers were...

Quadrature modulator and demodulator

Quadrature demodulator (10) and quadrature modulator (30) which comprise a first oscillator (11) and a second oscillator (12), a separate excitation signal being fed to the first osciallator (11) and second oscillator (12) in order to determine the point in time at which switching between two stable states takes place, and the quadrature...

Reflection and transmission trough a vertical, permeable breakwater: For the purpose of validating mathematical models

Results of labtests on reflection and transmission trough a vertical permeable breakwater for the purpose of validating mathematical models. In the laboratory a model of a vertical, permeable breakwater was constructed with elastocoast and tests were done with regular and irregular waves.
