Zhu, T. (author), Woodson, Kyle C. (author), Ertsen, M.W. (author)We explore the concept of scales to examine emerging irrigation realities, i.e., connecting more agents within larger spaces - relates to the complexity of irrigation systems. Modern hydraulic models allow the inclusion of emerging multi-scale issues over time, including social issues related to different spatial and temporal scales. We show...journal article 2018

Gasparutto, X. (author), van der Graaff, E. (author), van der Helm, F.C.T. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)In baseball pitching, biomechanical parameters have been linked to ball velocity and potential injury risk. However, although the features of a biomechanical model have a significant influence on the kinematics and kinetics of a motion, this influence have not been assessed for pitching. The aim of this study was to evaluate the choice of the...journal article 2018

Scandolo, L. (author), Bauszat, P. (author), Eisemann, E. (author)Stereoscopic 3D technology gives visual content creators a new dimension of design when creating images and movies. While useful for conveying emotion, laying emphasis on certain parts of the scene, or guiding the viewer's attention, editing stereo content is a challenging task. Not respecting comfort zones or adding incorrect depth cues, for...journal article 2018

Versteylen, C.D. (author), Szymański, N. K. (author), Sluiter, M.H.F. (author), van Dijk, N.H. (author)In recently discovered self healing creep steels, open-volume creep cavities are filled by the precipitation of supersaturated solute. These creep cavities form on the grain boundaries oriented perpendicular to the applied stress. The presence of a free surface triggers a flux of solute from the matrix, over the grain boundaries towards the...journal article 2018

Farahani, H. (author), Xu, W. (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author)Predicting the effect of alloying elements on the degree of incomplete austenite to bainite transformation in low carbon steels is of great industrial importance. This study introduces an extended Gibbs energy balance model which makes use of an additive approach to calculate the coupled effect of Mn, Si and Mo on the fraction of bainitic...journal article 2018

Steenbeek, Jorden (author)High-fidelity hybrid RANS/LES methods are unable to accurately predict the transition from laminar to turbulent boundary layer flows. Usually resulting in an incorrect prediction of boundary layer characteristics. In this study, a hybrid RANS/LES model was developed for transitional boundary layer flows. The transitional kkL-omega turbulence...master thesis 2017

De Koning, R.J. (author)The study into sand wave dynamics in South Channel has commenced after large dune forms were observed in monitoring campaigns following the channel deepening project of the Port of Melbourne. The project involved deepening of the harbour berths and channels, but more importantly, it involved the deepening of South Channel in Port Phillip Bay....master thesis 2017

van Goeverden, C.D. (author), Milakis, D. (author), Janic, M. (author), Konings, J.W. (author)This paper deals with an analysis of performances of the HL (Hyperloop) transport system considered as an advanced transport alternative to the existing APT (Air Passenger Transport) and HSR (High Speed Rail) systems. The considered performances are operational, financial, social and environmental. The operational performance include capacity...conference paper 2017

Jittrapirom, Peraphan (author), Caiati, Valeria (author), Feneri, Anna-Maria (author), Ebrahimigharehbaghi, S. (author), Alonso González, M.J. (author), Narayan S., Jishnu (author)Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is a recent innovative transport concept, anticipated to induce significant changes in the current transport practices. However, there is ambiguity surrounding the concept; it is uncertain what are the core characteristics of MaaS and in which way they can be addressed. Further, there is a lack of an assessment...journal article 2017

Pouliot, Jacynthe (author), Hubert, Frédéric (author), Wang, Chen (author), Ellul, Claire (author), Rajabifard, Abbas (author)The 3D Cadastre has been investigated from many viewpoints (including legal, organizational and technical). However, to date little research has focused specifically on visualizationrelated aspects despite the value-added of the third dimension. The paper first proposes an overview of progress made in the last five years in 3D cadastral...conference paper 2016

Schilperoort, B. (author)In hydrological models evaporation is often still quite uncertain. Potential evaporation is used as input, but the modelling of plant stresses is not always accurate enough to describe the behaviour in reality. In situ measured actual evaporation data is rare, and doing measurements is time consuming and expensive. With the advance of satellite...master thesis 2016

Verwer, K. (author)Induction heating is used to heat offshore pipeline field joints to a required temperature for application of anti-corrosion coatings. The objective of induction heating is to obtain a uniform surface temperature of typically 230 ± 10 °C in a time-span of minutes. The desired temperature profile of the field joint, also known as heat profile is...master thesis 2016

Oborin, N. (author)Muscle spindle is an organ of proprioception that plays an important role in neuro-muscular control of the human joints. It is composed of intrafusal fibers, the mechanical properties of which determine the afferent response of the spindle. Intrafusal fibers are not homogenous: they are composed of many sarcomeres, have localized fusimotor...master thesis 2016
