de Vries, Sietse (author), Schuller, Tomás (author), Galindo-Rosales, Francisco J. (author), Fanzio, P. (author)Fused Filament Fabrication is an additive manufacturing technique in which molten thermoplastic polymers are extruded through a nozzle. Therefore, the interplay between the viscoelastic nature of the polymer melt, temperature, printing conditions and nozzle shape may lead to inconsistent extrusion. To improve the extrusion control and...journal article 2024

Zou, Shibo (author), Picella, Sergio (author), de Vries, Jelle (author), Kortman, V.G. (author), Sakes, A. (author), Overvelde, Johannes T.B. (author)Soft robots are intrinsically capable of adapting to different environments by changing their shape in response to interaction forces. However, sensory feedback is still required for higher level decisions. Most sensing technologies integrate separate sensing elements in soft actuators, which presents a considerable challenge for both the...journal article 2024

Hubert, Naomi D. (author), Biely, Katharina (author), Kamp, L.M. (author), de Vries, G. (author)The installation of solar panels by residential households is vital for the energy transition. However, the rapid uptake of solar panels by households leads to congestion in the electricity grid. Specifically, when the sun shines, these solar panels simultaneously produce a lot of electricity that is fed into the grid, which is inefficient and...journal article 2024

Kantorowicz, Jaroslaw (author), Kantorowicz-Reznichenko, Elena (author), de Vries, G. (author)In democratic societies, governments cannot act in isolation from public opinion. This is especially true regarding terrorism, where public perception is the instrument targeted by terrorists to achieve their political goals. Nevertheless, governments must also be able to resist public pressure and preserve individual rights. All this suggests...journal article 2023

de Vries, G. (author)Climate change is one of the biggest global challenges the earth faces. It comes with a need to change the way we produce, supply, distribute and use energy. For this energy transition, we not only need money and technology, we also need a change in behaviour on multiple levels. Psychological perspectives, theories, and research methods are...journal article 2023

de Vries, R. (author), Lantsoght, E.O.L. (author), Steenbergen, Raphaël D.J.M. (author), Fennis, Sonja A.A.M. (author)In the evaluation of existing bridges and viaducts, relying solely on a desk study is often inadequate for determining their structural reliability. Performing a proof load test provides valuable field data that offers detailed information about the structural integrity. However, the relation between the magnitude of the load and the...journal article 2023
