Marine spray from wave run-up to a hull as input to icing models

Ships at sea will encounter deck wetness events that usually are just annoying and rarely lead to damage. Discomfort is experienced by spray, as it is limiting view and hampering deck work. In freezing conditions, deck wetting will lead to icing. This study is a continuation of publications regarding the development of a marine icing model...

Modelling the ballistics and thermodynamics of bow spray droplets for marine icing

In preparation to the SALTO JIP (Safe Arctic Logistics, Transport & Operations) work was done towards developing an improved model for icing due to sea spray at the bow of a ship. The so-called SHIPICE model may be used in a probabilistic risk-based approach and consists of two main segments: 1. Probabilistic modeling of spray water volumes...

Towards a sustainable campus: Visions for the future of higher education

Since 2008 long-term agreements on energy efficiency have become effective in the Netherlands. Participating organisations of forty-six sectors have agreed with the Dutch government to make efforts to realise energy efficiency of 30 percent in the period 2005- 2020 and 50 percent - as a guideline - before 2030. Higher education is represented...

Improved command and data handling system for the Delfi-n3Xt nanosatellite

The Delfi-C3 nanosatellite successor, Delfi-n3Xt, is currently under development at Delft University of Technology. This nanosatellite based on a three-unit CubeSat form factor has been improved through the implementation of a high-speed downlink, three-axis active attitude control and a single-point-failure free implementation of batteries in...

Place-based and race-based exclusion from mortgage loans: New evidence from the Netherlands

Workshop 1. Session A. Abstract. In most West-European countries outright ownership is the exception and most households are highly dependent on mortgage loans to be able to become and to sustain homeownership. Do place and race matter in mortgage loan applications? This paper presents evidence from mortgage markets in the Dutch cities of Arnhem...
