Dutta, S. (author), Verbiest, G.J. (author)We report on the effect of Fabry-Pérot (FP) resonance on hot-carrier electroluminescence (EL) spectra and the optical power efficiencies of silicon (Si) avalanche-mode (AM) LEDs in the wavelength range from 500 nm to 950 nm. The LEDs, fabricated in a silicon-on-insulator photonics technology, consist of symmetric p-n junctions placed within a 0...journal article 2022

Guendel, Ronny (author), Fioranelli, F. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)Continuous Human Activity Recognition (HAR) in arbitrary directions is investigated in this paper using a network of five spatially distributed pulsed Ultra-Wideband radars. While activities performed continuously and in unconstrained trajectories provide a more realistic and natural scenario for HAR, the network of radar sensors is proposed...journal article 2022

(author), Hijazi, Frederick (author), Beaudoin, Grégoire (author), Pantzas, Konstantinos (author), Sagnes, Isabelle (author), Braive, Rémy (author), Groeblacher, S. (author)Mechanical resonators can act as excellent intermediaries to interface single photons in the microwave and optical domains due to their high quality factors. Nevertheless, the optical pump required to overcome the large energy difference between the frequencies can add significant noise to the transduced signal. Here we exploit the remarkable...journal article 2022

Fritz, E.K. (author), Ferreira, Carlos (author), Boorsma, Koen (author)<br/><br/>This article proposes an efficient correction model that enables the extension of the blade element momentum method (BEM) for swept blades. Standard BEM algorithms, assuming a straight blade in the rotor plane, cannot account for the changes in the induction system introduced by blade sweep. The proposed extension corrects the axial...journal article 2022

Zivari, A. (author), Fiaschi, N. (author), Burgwal, Roel (author), Verhagen, Ewold (author), Stockill, Robert (author), Groeblacher, S. (author)Distributing quantum entanglement on a chip is a crucial step toward realizing scalable quantum processors. Using traveling phonons-quantized guided mechanical wave packets-as a medium to transmit quantum states is now gaining substantial attention due to their small size and low propagation speed compared to other carriers, such as electrons...journal article 2022

Eltager, M.A.M.E. (author), Abdelaal, T.R.M. (author), Mahfouz, A.M.E.T.A. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author)Motivation: Single-cell multi-omics assays simultaneously measure different molecular features from the same cell. A key question is how to benefit from the complementary data available and perform cross-modal clustering of cells. Results: We propose Single-Cell Multi-omics Clustering (scMoC), an approach to identify cell clusters from data...journal article 2022

Guo, J. (author), Groeblacher, S. (author)Preparing macroscopic mechanical resonators close to their motional quantum groundstate and generating entanglement with light offers great opportunities in studying fundamental physics and in developing a new generation of quantum applications. Here we propose an experimentally interesting scheme, which is particularly well suited for...working paper 2022

van Kuik, G.A.M. (author)The first rotor performance predictions were published by Joukowsky exactly 100 years ago. Although a century of research has expanded the knowledge of rotor aerodynamics enormously, and modern computer power and measurement techniques now enable detailed analyses that were previously out of reach, the concepts proposed by Froude, Betz,...book 2022

Pearce, B.J. (author), Deutsch, Lisa (author), Fry, Patrica (author), Marafatto, Francesco Femi (author), Lieu, J. (author)In this paper, we develop and apply the concept of ‘insight discovery’ as a key competence for transdisciplinary research and learning. To address complex societal and environmental problems facing the world today, a particular expertise that can identify new connections between diverse knowledge fields is needed in order to integrate diverse...journal article 2022

Bazilinskyy, P. (author), Dodou, D. (author), Eisma, Y.B. (author), Vlakveld, Willem (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author)Automated vehicles (AVs) may feature blinded (i.e. blacked-out) windows and external human–machine interfaces (eHMIs), and the driver may be inattentive or absent, but how these features affect cyclists is unknown. In a crowdsourcing study, participants viewed images of approaching vehicles from a cyclist's perspective and decided whether to...journal article 2022

Wang, R. (author), Ponsard, Bernard (author), Wolterbeek, H.T. (author), Denkova, A.G. (author)Background: Radionuclide therapy (RNT) has become a very important treatment modality for cancer nowadays. Comparing with other cancer treatment options, sufficient efficacy could be achieved in RNT with lower toxicity. β<sup>−</sup> emitters are frequently used in RNT due to the long tissue penetration depth of the β<sup>−</sup> particles....journal article 2022

van Parijs, Vincent (author), Nijssen, J.P.A. (author), van Ostayen, R.A.J. (author)Hydrostatic bearings are superior in terms of their friction and load carrying characteristics when compared to contact based bearings, but non-usable in applications with non-constant curvature counter surfaces. A possible solution to this limitation is the introduction of deformable hydrostatic bearings components that cope with these...journal article 2021

(author), Bas, Michael (author), Goossens, R.H.M. (author)While there has been increasing interest in the use of gamification in mental health care, there is a lack of design knowledge on how elements from games could be integrated into existing therapeutic treatment activities in a manner that is balanced and effective. To help address this issue, we propose a design process framework to support...journal article 2021

To further develop offshore wind energy, investment in ever-larger construction vessels is necessary. However, this market is characterised by seemingly unpredictable growth of market demand, turbine capacity and...journal article 2021

Ahmad, T. (author), Al-Ars, Z. (author), Hofstee, H.P. (author)Background Recently many new deep learning–based variant-calling methods like DeepVariant have emerged as more accurate compared with conventional variant-calling algorithms such as GATK HaplotypeCaller, Sterlka2, and Freebayes albeit at higher computational costs. Therefore, there is a need for more scalable and higher performance workflows of...review 2021

Salles, Sebastien (author), Shepherd, Jami (author), Vos, Hendrik J. (author), Renaud, G.G.J. (author)Intraosseous blood circulation is thought to have a critical role in bone growth and remodeling, fracture healing, and bone disorders. However, it is rarely considered in clinical practice because of the absence of a suitable noninvasive in vivo measurement technique. In this work, we assessed blood perfusion in tibial cortical bone...journal article 2021
