Yang, Y. (author), Walraven, J.C. (author), den Uijl, J.A. (author)In this paper a brief overview on the effect of tension stiffening in normal strength concrete and High Performance Fiber Concrete (HPFC) is given. On the basis of an existing model, several simplifications are proposed to describe the post-cracking performance of HPFC, and a simplified model for practical application is developed. This model is...journal article 2009

Yang, Z. (author)In many public places multiple sensing devices, such as cameras, are installed to help prevent unwanted situations such as aggression and violence. At the moment, the best solution to reach a safe environment requires human operators to monitor the camera images and take appropriate actions when necessary. In the wake of the terrorist attacks of...doctoral thesis 2009

(author)The size-dependent elastic behavior of silicon nanocantilevers and nanowires, specifically the effective Young’s modulus, has been determined by experimental measurements and theoretical investigations. The size dependence becomes more significant as the devices scale down from micro- to nano-dimensions, which has mainly been attributed to...journal article 2010

(author)This paper presents an experimental investigation of two approaches to short-range radar imaging at microwaves by means of ultra-wideband (UWB) technology. The first approach represents a classical synthetic aperture radar (SAR) that employs a transmit–receive antenna pair on mechanical scanner. The second one makes use of a multiple input...journal article 2010

(author), Sanquer, M. (author), Rogge, S. (author), Jamieson, D.N. (author)We demonstrate single dopant implantation into the channel of a silicon nanoscale metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistor. This is achieved by monitoring the drain current modulation during ion irradiation. Deterministic doping is crucial for overcoming dopant number variability in present nanoscale devices and for exploiting single...journal article 2010

Scheepers, E. (author), Yang, Y. (author), Adema, A.T. (author), Boom, R. (author), Reuter, M.A. (author)This article presents a process model of a phosphorus-producing, submerged arc furnace. The model successfully incorporates accurate, multifield thermodynamic, kinetic, and industrial data with computational flow dynamic calculations and thus further unifies the sciences of kinetics and equilibrium thermodynamics. The model is structurally three...journal article 2010

(author), Van Keulen, F. (author)Micro/nano resonant cantilevers with a laser deflection readout have been very popular in sensing applications over the past years. Despite the popularity, however, most of the research has been devoted to increasing the sensitivity, and very little attention has been focused on effects-induced errors. Among these effects, the surface effects...journal article 2010
