(author), Vogt, Carsten (author), Franke, Steffi (author), Kümmel, Steffen (author), Stams, Alfons J.M. (author)Methanol is generally metabolized through a pathway initiated by a cobalamine-containing methanol methyltransferase by anaerobic methylotrophs (such as methanogens and acetogens), or through oxidation to formaldehyde using a methanol dehydrogenase by aerobes. Methanol is an important substrate in deep-subsurface environments, where...journal article 2018

Eekhout, A.J.C.M. (author), Van Gelder, B.L. (author), Lockefeer, W.A.A.M. (author), Veltkamp, M. (author), Vollers, K.J. (author)The success of the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, designed and engineered by Frank O. Gehry and inaugurated in 1997, opened the eyes of the world to the plastic possibilities of Free Form Design. That is, on the side of architects and their admiring clients. Some architects draw up complicated but surprising and attractive Free Form Designs and...book 2016

Mei, X. (author), Dai, Z. (author), Van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author), Gao, J. (author)The magnitude of anthropogenic influence, especially dam regulation, on hydrological system is of scientific and practical value for large river management. As the largest dam in the world by far, Three Gorges Dam (TGD) is expected to be a strong evidence on dam impacts on downstream hydrological regime. In this study, statistical methods are...journal article 2015

Fasihi Harandi, M. (author), Yarahmadian, S. (author), Sepehrifar, M. (author), Van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)We use the Dichotomous Markov Noise (DMN) model with constant transition rates to describe the dynamics of fluctuations in the water level as a stochastic process, which is imposed on river discharge changes. By applying this model, two different regimes are determined for the long-term behaviour of the river. Based on these regimes, we define...journal article 2014

(author), Hulscher, S.J.M.H. (author), Lansen, A.J. (author)This paper explores an alternative method to determine extreme surge levels at the Dutch Coast. For this exploration, specific focus is on the extreme water level at Hoek van Holland, The Netherlands. The alternative method has been based on a joint probability model of the storm characteristics at the North Sea. The intent of this method is to...conference paper 2014

Wagner, W. (author), Van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)The Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment of The Netherlands and Rijkswaterstaat (RWS) aim to launch a risk-driven maintenance concept named RAMSSHEEP. Engineering and consultancy companies are expected to develop the RAMSSHEEP concept in order to create better maintenance strategies. The objective is to investigate whether RAMSSHEEP...conference paper 2013

Odijk, M.A. (author), Van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)Let Z1, ..., Zn be i.i.d. standard normal variables, Mn the extreme among their absolute values, and Qn their rooted sum of squares. Here we study the ratio ?n =Mn /Qn. We show that ?(?n ) = ?(Mn )/?(Qn )~ bn / Vn ~ V2log(n)/n, where cn ~ dn denotes that cn /dn ?1 for n??. Moreover, convergence happens in a stable manner, i.e. ?n ~ ?(?n ) in...conference paper 2013

A joint probability analysis of the astronomical tide, the wind induced storm surge, the Rhine flow and...journal article 2013

(author)The Dutch Lower Rhine Delta, a transitional area between the Rivers Rhine, Meuse and the North Sea, is at risk of flooding induced by infrequent events of storm surges or fluvial floods, or the combination of both. To protect the delta from storm surges, it can be closed off from the sea by large dams and controllable storm surge barriers. Also,...conference paper 2013

(author)To guarantee a safe flood defence in a changing environment, the adaptation to climate change needs to be considered in the design of river dikes. However, the large uncertainty in the projections of future climate leads to varied estimations of future flood probability. How to cope with the uncertainties in future flood probability under...conference paper 2013

(author)The dam-break induced loads and their effects on buildings are of vital importance for assessing the vulnerability of buildings in flood-prone areas. A comprehensive methodology, for risk assessment of buildings subject to flooding, is nevertheless still missing. This research aims to take a step forward by following previous research. To this...journal article 2013

Ke, Q. (author), Jonkman, S.N. (author), Van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author), Rijcken, T. (author)Flood damage estimation is essential to flood risk analysis. Flood hazards, values of elements at risk and vulnerability of elements determine flood damage. However, these determinants entail uncertainties. In this study, water depth, values of elements at risk and damage function are selected as three key parameters. The local sensitivity...conference paper 2012
