Chowdhury, M. Kifayath (author), Blom, A. (author), Ylla Arbos, C. (author), Schielen, R.M.J. (author)Climate change is responsible for global shifts in precipitation patterns and an overall in-crease in global temperatures. The transi-tions are anticipated to modify the river hydro-graph and sea level. The changes to the hy-drograph are also likely to influence sediment flux. These alterations imply shifts in both up-stream and downstream...abstract 2024

Liptiay, E.J.A. (author), Blom, A. (author), Sloff, C.J. (author)Over the past century, the main channel of the Waal has experienced erosion of approx-imately 1-2 metres (Ylla Arb´os et al., 2021; Chowdhury et al., 2023). This erosion leads to various problems such as instability of struc-tures or disruption to shipping. To address this ongoing degradation, a potential solution is the implementation of...abstract 2024

Gautam, K. (author), Wolf, M.E. (author), Bogaard, T.A. (author), Blom, A. (author)The dynamics of the bifurcating Karnali river in the western plains of Nepal and India is governed by the geomorphological processes in an alluvial fan. The dynamic branches showcase a notable degree of braiding, dominant channel switching and unequal discharge partitioning. Since recent switching of the dominant channel of Karnali system...abstract 2024

Dercksen, J.A. (author), Stancanelli, L.M. (author), Trimbos, Krijn B. (author), Blom, A. (author)River restoration is an established method for the rehabilitation of river ecosystems in order to combat the current declines of freshwater biodiversity (Wohl et al., 2005; WWF, 2022). The urgency of restoration is recognized internationally, as the IUCN has proclaimed 2021-2030 to be the ‘Decade on Ecosystem Restoration’ (Cooke et al., 2022)....abstract 2024

Ylla Arbos, C. (author), Schielen, R.M.J. (author), van Vuren, Saskia (author), Snoek, Yvo (author), Blom, A. (author)Channel adjustment in engineered rivers is often associated with channel bed incision (e.g., Chowdhury et al., 2023, Czapiga et al., 2022a, 2022b, Ylla Arbós et al., 2021). Channel bed incision reduces the stability of in-river structures, exposes river-crossing cables and pipelines, and the spatial variability of channel bed incision due to...abstract 2024

Blom, Y. (author), Vogt, M.R. (author), Isabella, O. (author)Lead halide perovskites are a promising class of materials for solar cell applications. The perovskite bandgap depends on the material composition and is highly tunable. Opto-electrical device modelling is commonly used to find the optimum perovskite bandgap that maximizes device efficiency or energy yield, either in single junction or multi...journal article 2024

Blom, T. (author), Jenkins, Andrew (author), van den Dobbelsteen, A.A.J.F. (author)The urban energy transition requires innovative heating and cooling systems, as well as enhanced flexibility in electricity usage. This paper explores the theoretical potential for vertical farms to contribute to the energy transition by supplying residual heat to local district heat networks and flexible electricity usage. A stepped approach...journal article 2024

Sun, Y. (author), Chen, B. (author), Zhang, Shizhe (author), Blom, C.B.M. (author), Lukovic, M. (author), Ye, G. (author)With the development of waste recovery techniques, previous research has revealed that coarse fractions of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash (BA) after proper treatment could be applied in the construction sector, while the fines are seldom recovered in practice and normally landfilled. This study explores the potential...journal article 2024

Ylla Arbos, C. (author), Blom, A. (author), White, S. R. (author), Patzwahl, R. (author), Schielen, R.M.J. (author)Erosion-control measures in rivers aim to provide sufficient navigation width, reduce local erosion, or to protect neighboring communities from flooding. These measures are typically devised to solve a local problem. However, local channel modifications trigger a large-scale channel response in the form of migrating bed level and sediment...journal article 2024

Blom, H.A.P. (author)Abstract.: The transition kernel of an ℝ<sup>n</sup>-valued diffusion or jump diffusion process {X<sub>t</sub>} is known to satisfy the Feller property if {X<sub>t</sub>} is the solution of an SDE whose coefficients are Lipschitz continuous. This Lipschitz route to Feller falls short if {X<sub>t</sub>} is the solution of an SDE whose...journal article 2024

(author)A bifurcation in an engineered river system (i.e., fixed planform and width) has fewer degrees of freedom in its response to interventions and natural changes than a natural bifurcation system. Our objective is to provide insight into how a bifurcation in an engineered river responds to peak flows and human interventions. To this end, we analyze...journal article 2023

(author)In this paper, we show the mathematical equivalence of two popular modulation schemes: OSDM and OTFS. The former is mainly used in underwater acoustic communications, while the latter scheme is a promising modulation technique in radio-frequency communications. Although literature suggests a link between the two modulation schemes by connecting...journal article 2023

Ma, H. (author), Blom, H.A.P. (author)For diffusions, a well-developed approach in rare event estimation is to introduce a suitable factorization of the reach probability and then to estimate these factors through simulation of an Interacting Particle System (IPS). This paper studies IPS based reach probability estimation for General Stochastic Hybrid Systems (GSHS). The...journal article 2023

Blom, T. (author), Jenkins, A.J. (author), van den Dobbelsteen, A.A.J.F. (author)Vertical farms use some resources very efficiently. However, their electricity use is considerable, and a significant amount of waste heat is produced. This paper investigates how the integration of vertical farms in buildings could reduce the use of energy, water, and nutrients collectively across both entities by leveraging potential resource...journal article 2023

The sudden change in slope results in deposition of nutrient-rich sediment, which forms large alluvial or fluvial fans that enhance biodiversity and economic activities in the region.
