Foam is remarkably effective in the mobility control of gas injection for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes and CO<sub>2</sub> sequestration. Our goal is to better understand immiscible three-phase foam displacement with oil in porous media. In particular, we investigate (i) the displacement as a function of initial (I) and injection (J)...

Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (DAOs) have the capability of being a disruptive Web3 technology. Their usage of cryptographically secure distributed ledgers shows promise of replacing existing technical and financial intermediaries. However, this promise has not been fully materialised yet: existing attempts typically rely on...

In this one-day workshop we are going to make access. We aim to counteract the phenomenon that access to making (e.g., in makerspaces, fablabs, etc.) is not equally distributed, with certain groups of people being underrepresented (e.g., women∗1). After brief introductions from participants and a set of three impulse keynotes, we will...

The speed of energy transition in the Netherlands is low, in contrast to its<br/>2050 climate change target of net-zero emissions. The transition requires 7.5 million households with natural gas connections, to move to renewable energy sources. The main challenge is not technical, many viable options are already available, but social: people...

Many new logistics initiatives arise based on the principles of resource sharing through crowdsourcing. Sharing unused and/or underused resources can deliver new efficiencies in the logistics value chain in an industry where efficiency is the name of the game. The benefits of applying sharing economy concepts in logistics in terms of higher...

In de wegenbouw is duurzaamheid een belangrijk speerpunt. Daarom wordt er gezocht naar nieuwe bindmiddelen en modificaties om duurzame oplossingen te vinden voor de alsmaar groeiende verkeersstromen. Met de introductie van asfalt met epoxygemodificeerde bitumen wordt een grote stap gezet in het realiseren van robuuste wegen met een langere...

In the Dutch freeway geometric design guidelines, there is a rule that in connector roads, the second curve should not be smaller than the first curve in a connector road, so there is no need to decelerate further inside the connector road. By this it is assumed to match the expectation of the driver. Based on speed profiles in free flow...

In a world influenced by climate change and consequently sea-level rise, extreme floods are expected to become more frequent in the future, representing a serious threat for riverine and coastal settlements. Therefore, flood protection is a large component of climate adaptation and should be closely related to other measures of climate...

Volumetric PIV measurements are performed to study the flow development around a 1:12 scale model of a thrust reverser in a low-speed wind tunnel. The thrust-reverser operates in a freestream flow of 3-5 m/s and with a jet to freestream velocity ratio Vjet/Vinf ranging from 1.5 to 6. Making use of sub-millimeter helium-filled soap bubbles, large...

Solar sailing is a flight-proven low-thrust propulsion technology with strong potential for innovative scientific missions. All previous solar-sail missions employed a solar-sail system design consisting of four triangular sail quadrants supported by deployable booms. As an alternative to such a fixed and flat sail-system design, this paper...

Through numerous survey efforts over the past decades, humanity has achieved substantial knowledge of the near-Earth asteroid (NEA) population. Nevertheless, survey completeness at small asteroid sizes is still limited, and unannounced impacts, such as the 2013 Chelyabinsk meteor, are common enough to warrant further identification efforts....

A planetary sunshade is a large, reflecting disk built to shield the Earth from a small fraction of solar irradiance and partly compensate global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions. As a specific form of solar geoengineering, the sunshade is an emergency solution that would be implemented to prevent catastrophic climate change, while...

In 2018, the geothermal project Nature's Heat started its operations to supply heat to 64 hectares of greenhouses in Kwintsheul, Netherlands. The operation involves the extraction and reinjection of geothermal fluids at a depth of about 2.4km. Several studies suggested that geothermal operations in these parts of The Netherlands are unlikely to...

The increasing demand for decarbonisation to achieve the green transition leads to a higher required capacity for all types of renewable energy farms, including offshore wind. Due to the large required spacing between turbines to maximise their efficiency, their individual size is constantly increasing. A direct consequence for heavy lift and...

This article focuses on the OMA’s IJ-plein master plan located on a former shipping wharf in Amsterdam North (1980-1988). Particularly in the domesticity of the different dwellings, which were designed by six other offices, including the one by Koolhaas, and were 100% for social housing. This project is considered one of the turning points of...

To solve complex problems, researchers are increasingly working in large, integrated research programmes. Integration of projects within a single programme rather than supporting a range of individual, more autonomous projects, is supposed to lead to several benefits, including: creating and enhancing synergies amongst projects, improving...

Quantum many-core processors are envisioned as the ultimate solution for the scalability of quantum computers. Based upon Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) chips interconnected in a sort of quantum intranet, they enable large algorithms to be executed on current and close future technology. In order to optimize such architectures, it is...
