Bogdanovic, N. (author), Driessen, J.N. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)We consider a target selection problem for multitarget tracking in a multifunction radar network from a gametheoretic perspective. The problem is formulated as a noncooperative game. The radars are considered to be players in this game with utilities modeled using a proper tracking accuracy criterion and their strategies are the observed...journal article 2018

Wilding, D. (author), Pozzi, P. (author), Soloviev, O.A. (author), Vdovin, Gleb (author), Verhaegen, M.H.G. (author)In life sciences, interest in the microscopic imaging of increasingly complex three dimensional samples, such as cell spheroids, zebrafish embryos, and in vivo applications in small animals, is growing quickly. Due to the increasing complexity of samples, more and more life scientists are considering the implementation of adaptive optics in...conference paper 2018

(author), Fearnhead, Paul (author), Lienart, Thibaut (author), Roberts, Gareth (author), Vollmer, Sebastian J. (author)Piecewise Deterministic Monte Carlo algorithms enable simulation from a posterior distribution, whilst only needing to access a sub-sample of data at each iteration. We show how they can be implemented in settings where the parameters live on a restricted domain.journal article 2018

Zlatanovic, L. (author), Knezev, A (author), van der Hoek, J.P. (author), Vreeburg, Jan (author)Drinking water and fire safety are strongly bonded to each other. Actual drinking water demand and fire flows are both delivered through the same network, and are both devoted to public health and safety. In The Netherlands, the discussion about fire flows supplied by the drinking water networks has drawn fire fighters and drinking water...journal article 2018

Gerasimou, Simos (author), Kechagia, M. (author), Kolovos, Dimitris (author), Paige, Richard (author), Gousios, G. (author)Software libraries, typically accessible through Application Programming<br/>Interfaces (APIs), enhance modularity and reduce development time. Nevertheless, their use reinforces system dependency on third-party software. When libraries become obsolete or their APIs change, performing the necessary modifications to dependent systems, can be time...conference paper 2018

Naderpour, Mohsen (author), Khakzad, N. (author)On February 2007, a massive fire in a propane de-asphalting unit in an oil refinery in Texas, USA happened due to liquid propane release from a cracked pipe in a control station injuring four people, damaging extensive equipment, causing significant business interruption, and resulting in more than $50 million losses. The accident was...journal article 2018

Yang, Ning (author), Yang, Daoguo (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author), Chen, Liangbiao (author), Liu, Dongjing (author), Cai, Miao (author), Fan, Xuejun (author)The effects of graphene stacking are investigated by comparing the results of methane adsorption energy, electronic performance, and the doping feasibility of five dopants (i.e., B, N, Al, Si, and P) via first-principles theory. Both zigzag and armchair graphenes are considered. It is found that the zigzag graphene with Bernal stacking has...journal article 2018

Gaisser, F. (author), Peeters, Suzanne H.P. (author), Lenseigne, B.A.J. (author), Jonker, P.P. (author), Oepkes, Dick (author)A Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS) is a condition that occurs in about 10% of pregnancies involving monochorionic twins. This complication can be treated with fetoscopic laser coagulation. The procedure could greatly benefit from panorama reconstruction to gain an overview of the placenta. In previous work we investigated which steps...journal article 2018

(author), Romero, Osvaldo Romero (author), Dewulf, Jo (author)BACKGROUND: Microbial community dynamics during the anaerobic digestion of vinasse has been little studied. However, having knowledge about it is essential for early detection of reactor operational difficulties to apply preventive actions. This research studies the microbial community dynamics in the anaerobic digestion of vinasse, linking...journal article 2018

Milakis, D. (author), Kroesen, M. (author), van Wee, G.P. (author)In this paper, possible accessibility impacts of fully automated vehicles (AVs) are explored. A conceptual framework for those impacts is developed based on the model of four accessibility components (i.e. land use, transport, temporal and individual) of Geurs and van Wee (2004). Q-method is applied among a sample of seventeen international...journal article 2018

Rezaeiyan, Y. (author), Zamani, M. (author), Shoaei, Omid (author), Serdijn, W.A. (author)There is an increasing demand for low power, low voltage, and small size analog readout bio-potential systems. This paper presents an analog front-end for measuring the intra-cardiac signals in implantable and also external ambulatory ECG cardiac recording applications. The analog front-end benefits from voltage to frequency conversion...journal article 2018

Rahrah, M. (author), Vermolen, F.J. (author)Stress and water injection induce deformations and changes in pore pressure in the soil. The interaction between the mechanical deformations and the flow of water induces a change in porosity and permeability, which results in nonlinearity. To investigate this interaction and the impact of mechanical vibrations and pressure pulses on the flow...journal article 2018

Vermolen, F.J. (author), Segal, A. (author)In finite-element computations, one often needs to calculate integrals of products of powers of monomials over simplexes. In this manuscript, we prove a generalisation of the exact integration formula that was reported and proved for two-dimensional simplexes by Holand & Bell in 1969. We extend the proof to n-dimensional simplexes and to...journal article 2018

Feng, Q. (author), Oosterlee, C.W. (author)We study the impact of wrong way risk (WWR) on credit valuation adjustment (CVA) for Bermudan options. WWR is modeled by a dependency between the underlying asset and the intensity of the counterparty's default. Two WWR models are proposed, based on a deterministic function and a CIR-jump (CIRJ) model, respectively. We present a nonnested...journal article 2018
