Adam, A.J.L. (author), Van der Valk, N.C.J. (author), Planken, P.C.M. (author)We present measurements and calculations of the terahertz (THz) electric field measured in the near field of a metal tip used in THz apertureless near-field optical microscopy (THz-ANSOM). An analytical model in which we treat the metal tip as a linear wire antenna allows us to predict almost all of the features observed in the measurements,...journal article 2007

De Vries, J.C. (author)Steeds vaker wordt vastgoed gebruikt om op een of andere wijze de prestatie van de organisatie te verbeteren. Bijvoorbeeld door een verbeterde uitstraling, een kostenreductie of verhoging van de motivatie van medewerkers. Probleem is dat niet op te maken is in hoeverre de effecten het gevolg zijn van de vastgoedingreep of van een verandering in...doctoral thesis 2007

Khalili Amiri, P. (author), Zhuang, Y. (author), Schellevis, H. (author), Rejaei, B. (author), Vroubel, M. (author), Ma, Y. (author), Burghartz, J.N. (author)This work presents a series of high-resistivity nanogranular Co–Al–O films with maximum resistivity of ? 110?m??cm. The films were deposited using pulsed dc reactive sputtering of a Co72Al28 target in an oxygen/argon ambient. The samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), M-H loop measurements, and s-parameter measurements...journal article 2007

Schoen, E. (author), Schelman, J. (author)Asfalt dijkbekledingen moeten periodiek beoordeeld worden op weerstand tegen golfklappen. Daartoe worden op diverse plaatsen van de dijk kernen uitgeboord. Van elke kern worden twee proefstukken gemaakt. Het ene wordt onderworpen aan een vermoeiingsproef. Een belasting F wordt volgens een vaste frequentie opgelegd en weer weggenomen. Na N...report 2007

Van Beinum, A.S. (author)Dit rapport beschrijft verschillende rekenmethodes voor het bepalen van de rotondecapaciteit van enkel- en meerstrooksrotondes die tot op heden zelden werden toegepast in Nederland. Deze studie is gericht op het toepasbaar maken van deze formules voor de Nederlandse verkeerssituatie, en resulteert dan ook in een complete set, gekalibreerde en...master thesis 2007

Hutter, G. (author)The report Strategies for Pre-Flood Risk Management Case Studies and Recommendations proposes (1) a theoretical framework to analyse the content, process, and context of strategies for reducing flood risk within catchments. (2) Three case studies illustrate why researchers and practitioners alike can benefit from using the framework to...report 2007

Meijer, K.S. (author)This dissertation discusses how the importance of river flow-sustained ecosystems for local communities can be quantified for the purpose of balancing water supply and demand in Integrated Water Resources Management. Due to the development of water resources, for example through the construction of reservoirs, the natural flow regime is altered...doctoral thesis 2007

Yuan, C.A. (author), Zhang, G.Q. (author), Han, C.N. (author), Chiang, K.N. (author), Cui, Y. (author)The mechanical characteristics of the long-chain double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) molecule under the axial stretching and lateral unzipping are studied by the clustered atomistic-continuum method (CACM). The CACM consisted of the clustered atom method (CAM) and the atomistic-continuum method (ACM). The CAM treats the specific atomic group as the...journal article 2007

Reeve, D. (author)This report is the deliverable from the FLOODsite partners contributing to Task 5. Research has been undertaken to improve understanding, models and techniques for the analysis of the performance of the whole flood defence system and its diverse components, including natural and man-made defences (e.g. seawalls, embankments, dunes). In...report 2007

Quist, J.N. (author)"Backcasting for a sustainable future: the impact after 10 years" is the first book that systematically investigates the follow-up and spin-off of various participatory backcasting experiments seven to ten years after completion. Backcasting literally means looking back from a desirable future that is constructed first. Since the 1990s...doctoral thesis 2007

Sandrine, A. (author)Flash floods result from the concatenation of meteorological and hydrological conditions. Recognition of the coupled meteorological/hydrological nature of flash floods is now evident in interpretative studies and in the development of predictive models. Therefore, the work performed within Task 1 aims at improving our understanding of the...report 2007

Plug, W.J. (author), Slob, E.C. (author), Bruining, J. (author), Moreno Tirado, L.M. (author)We present a tool that simultaneously measures the complex permittivity and the capillary pressure characteristics for multiphase flow. The sample holder is a parallel plate capacitor. A precision component analyzer is used to measure the impedance amplitude and phase angle as a function of frequency (1 kHz to 3 MHz). The complex impedance of...journal article 2007

Wetzels, W. (author)Most applications in electronics are based on manipulation of the electron charge. Currently, there is also a lot of research into the possibility to make use of the electron spin, for example in magnetoelectronics. This field of research studies hybrid systems consisting of ferromagnetic metals, paramagnetic metals and insulators. In this...doctoral thesis 2007

van Rijswijk, K. (author)Due to the increasing costs of fossil fuels and the improved efficiency of wind turbines in the last decade, wind energy has become increasingly cost-efficient and is well on its way of becoming a mainstream source of energy. To maintain a continuous reduction in costs it is necessary to increase the size of the turbines. For the blades a...doctoral thesis 2007

Rejaei, B. (author), Vroubel, M. (author)The high-frequency impedance of a planar solenoid with a thin magnetic core is theoretically investigated using the magnetostatic Green’s function formalism. It is shown that the electrical behavior of the solenoid depends on how the magnetic field induced by the current-carrying coil is coupled to the different magnetostatic modes of the core....journal article 2007

Sonneveld, M.H. (author)From the moment we are born, we are surrounded, touched, supported, protected, attacked and equipped by man-made objects. We are continuously in physical interaction with this man-made world. Yet tactual experience in human-product interaction is a neglected domain in product design education and research. This thesis contributes to a design...doctoral thesis 2007
