Ravi, A.M. (author), Kumar, A. (author), Herbig, Michael (author), Sietsma, J. (author), Santofimia, Maria Jesus (author)The rate of bainite formation depends on several factors such as austenite grain size, decomposition of austenite into other phases and austenite composition. Although studies have been carried out to understand various factors affecting bainite formation, open lines of investigation still remain. In this work, the effect of ferrite formation...journal article 2020

(author)Power Doppler (PD) imaging has become a staple in high frame rate ultrasound imaging due to its ability to image small vessels and slow-moving flows, such as in the case of imaging blood flow in the brain. Alternatively, color Doppler (CD) can be used to determine the one-dimensional directional information of the blood scatterers. This can help...conference paper 2020

Koeze, D.J. (author), Hong, Lingtjien (author), Kumar, Abhishek (author), Tighe, B.P. (author)Numerous soft materials jam into an amorphous solid at a high packing fraction. This nonequilibrium phase transition is best understood in a model system where particles repel when they overlap. Recently, however, it was shown that introducing any finite amount of attraction between particles changes the universality class of the transition....journal article 2020

Kumar, Kavisha (author), Ledoux, H. (author), Schmidt, Richard (author), Verheij, Theo (author), Stoter, J.E. (author)This paper presents our implementation of a harmonized data model for noise simulations in the European Union (EU). Different noise assessment methods are used by different EU member states (MS) for estimating noise at local, regional, and national scales. These methods, along with the input data extracted from the national registers and...journal article 2020

(author), Hollmann, F. (author)Long-chain aliphatic amines such as (S,Z)-heptadec-9-en-7-amine and 9-aminoheptadecane were synthesized from ricinoleic acid and oleic acid, respectively, by whole-cell cascade reactions using the combination of an alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) from Micrococcus luteus, an engineered amine transaminase from Vibrio fluvialis (Vf-ATA), and a...journal article 2020

Liu, Z. (author), Hedayati, Pegah (author), Sudhölter, Ernst J. R. (author), Haaring, Robert (author), Shaik, A.R. (author), Kumar, N. (author)Adsorption behavior of surfactants to rock surfaces is an important issue in oil recovery, especially in the process of surfactant flooding. The surfactant loss through adsorption to rock surfaces makes such process economically less feasible. Here, we investigated the adsorption behavior of anionic surfactants (alcohol alkoxy sulfate, AAS)...journal article 2020

Kumar, Siddhant (author), Tan, S. (author), Zheng, Li (author), Kochmann, Dennis M. (author)After a decade of periodic truss-, plate-, and shell-based architectures having dominated the design of metamaterials, we introduce the non-periodic class of spinodoid topologies. Inspired by natural self-assembly processes, spinodoid metamaterials are a close approximation of microstructures observed during spinodal phase separation. Their...journal article 2020

Kumar, P. (author), Frouws, Jan (author), Langelaar, Matthijs (author)In various applications, design problems involving structures and compliant mechanisms experience fluidic pressure loads. During topology optimization of such design problems, these loads adapt their direction and location with the evolution of the design, which poses various challenges. A new density-based topology optimization approach...journal article 2020

Kumar, P. (author), Rodrigo, Carmen (author), Gaspar, Francisco J. (author), Oosterlee, C.W. (author)We present a multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) method for the uncertainty quantification of variably saturated porous media flow that is modeled using the Richards equation. We propose a stochastic extension for the empirical models that are typically employed to close the Richards equations. This is achieved by treating the soil parameters in...journal article 2019

Kumar, P. (author)Uncertainty is ubiquitous in many areas of science and engineering. It may result from the inadequacy of mathematical models to represent the reality or from unknown physical parameters that are required as inputs for these models. Uncertainty may also arise due to the inherent randomness of the system being analyzed. For many problems of...doctoral thesis 2019

Ledoux, H. (author), Arroyo Ohori, G.A.K. (author), Kumar, Kavisha (author), Dukai, B. (author), Labetski, A. (author), Vitalis, S. (author)The international standard CityGML is both a data model and an exchange format to store digital 3D models of cities. While the data model is used by several cities, companies, and governments, in this paper we argue that its XML-based exchange format has several drawbacks. These drawbacks mean that it is difficult for developers to implement...journal article 2019

(author)LandInfra is a relatively new open standard for modelling and representing land and infrastructure features. As it overlaps with other open standards in BIM (IFC) and 3D GIS (CityGML), it has been recognised as a potential candidate to bridge the gap between the two domains. However, the knowledge of this standard in both communities is low, and...journal article 2019
