Abkar, Leili (author), Aghili Mehrizi, Amirreza (author), Jafari, Morez (author), Beck, Sara E. (author), Ghassemi, Abbas (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author)Reverse osmosis (RO) systems offer a viable solution for treating brackish water (BW), a common but underutilized water resource. However, the energy-intensive nature of brackish water reverse osmosis (BWRO) systems poses affordability challenges to water supply, necessitating a focus on minimizing their energy consumption to support SDG6's...journal article 2024

Ophorst, M. (author), Grooth, Joris de (author), Heijman, Sebastiaan (author), Vaudevire, Elisabeth M.H. (author), Jafari, Morez (author)This study investigated the performance of direct hollow fiber nanofiltration (dNF40) membranes from NX Filtration BV on a pilot scale for the treatment of pre-treated IJsselmeer water from Waterwinstation Prinses Juliana (WPJ) in Andijk, as well as the direct treatment of raw IJsselmeer water. The objective was to evaluate the long-term...journal article 2024

Jafari, E. (author)This dissertation puts together planning documents and multiple archival sources to demonstrate how urban planning and the role of planners have evolved in an ever-changing transnational context of Iran. It challenges the prevailing approach in the literature of Tehran urban studies that simply flattens the complexity of local-foreign...doctoral thesis 2022

Ferretti, Francesca (author), Jafari, S. (author), Esposito, R. (author), Rots, J.G. (author), Mazzotti, Claudio (author)The shove test (ASTM Standard C1531) is an experimental technique aimed at studying the shear-sliding behavior of brick masonry. It can be executed according to various testing methods that differ in the way the vertical compression load is applied and in the way bricks and/or joints are locally removed for inserting jacks. One of the most...journal article 2022

Jafari, S. (author), Rots, J.G. (author), Esposito, R. (author)To date, several different structural representations of masonry are available for use in the numerical and analytical assessment methods, each calling for a distinct level of refinement regarding the material input. To determine material properties, in terms of strength, stiffness, and toughness under compression, bending, and shear loading,...journal article 2022

Teo, Ying Shen (author), Jafari, Iman (author), Liang, Fei (author), Jung, Youmi (author), van der Hoek, J.P. (author), Ong, Say Leong (author), Hu, Jiangyong (author)The UV/Cl2 process (also known as chlorine photolysis, which is the combination of chlorine and simultaneous irradiation of UV light) is conventionally applied at acidic mediums for drinking water treatment and further treatment of wastewater effluents for secondary reuse. This is because the quantum yield of HO• from HOCl (ϕHO•, 254 = 1.4) is...journal article 2022

Jafari, S. (author)Understanding the behaviour of unreinforced masonry (URM) structures requires in-depth insight into the mechanical properties of its constituents and their interaction under compression, tension, and shear loading. As a result, a complete picture of masonry characteristics, accounting for its full nonlinear response and its statistical...doctoral thesis 2021

Jafari, S. (author), Rots, J.G. (author), Esposito, R. (author)In this study, tests on cores and companion tests on triplets are compared with respect to the evaluation of the nonlinear shear-sliding behaviour of masonry, including the determination of post-peak softening response. Due to its slightly-destructive sampling nature and its good agreement with triplet results, the core testing method is...journal article 2020

Jafari, E. (author), Hein, C.M. (author)In the late 1960s, the first Tehran Master Plan (TMP) was envisioned by a constellation of local and foreign experts. The TMP, which has been extensively studied, is usually credited to big-name planner and architect Victor Gruen. Scholars have neglected the contributions of local professionals in shaping the plan. Many depict the TMP as the...journal article 2020

Jafari, E. (author), De Togni, Nicole (author)Decentralization has actively engaged various fields of sociology, economy, and governance in the development of urban regions and territories. As a multifaceted strategy, decentralization contributes to enrich our understanding of national and international forces, power struggles, economic factors, and their impacts on the built environment....journal article 2019

Jafari, S. (author), Rots, J.G. (author), Esposito, R. (author)This study investigates the applicability of the core testing method to assess the complete nonlinear behavior of masonry in compression. A comparative experimental approach was adopted performing compressive tests on cores and companion wallets. Via a correlation study on seven objects, including literature data, a one-to-one correlation for...journal article 2019

Jafari, Morez (author), Derlon, Nicolas (author), Desmond, Peter (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Morgenroth, Eberhard (author), Picioreanu, C. (author)Poroelastic fluid-structure interaction models were coupled to experimental data to determine the effects of biofilm spatial distribution of mechanical and hydraulic properties on the biofilm hydraulic resistance and compressibility in membrane filtration processes. Biofilms were cultivated on ultrafiltration membranes for 20 and 30 days...journal article 2019

Jafari, S. (author), Esposito, R. (author), Rots, J.G. (author)To accurately assess the performance of existing unreinforced masonry (URM) structures, the mechanical characteristics of masonry under compressive loading are required. The compression properties of existing URM can be evaluated through different methods, either performing destructive tests (DTs) or slightly destructive tests (SDTs). DTs can be...conference paper 2018

Esposito, R. (author), Jafari, S. (author), Ravenshorst, G.J.P. (author), Schipper, H.R. (author), Rots, J.G. (author)In recent years induced seismicity in the Netherlands considerably increased. This phenomenon has a wide impact on the built environment, which is mainly composed by unreinforced masonry (URM) structures. These buildings were not designed for seismic loading, and present peculiar characteristics include very slender walls (100 mm thickness and 2...conference paper 2018

(author)In recent years, induced seismicity in the north of the Netherlands significantly increased. As a consequence, the seismic assessment of the built environment, which mainly consists of unreinforced masonry (URM) structures not designed for seismic loads, became of high relevance. Within this context, an extensive multiscale testing program has...conference paper 2018

(author)Biofilm formation in membrane systems negatively impacts the filtration system performances. This study evaluated how biofilm compression driven by permeate flow increases the hydraulic resistance and leads to reduction in permeate flux. We analysed the effect of biofilm compression on hydraulic resistance and permeate flux through...journal article 2018
