Verhoeven, Thijs (author)In 2008, a new concept to extract tidal energy was introduced called Dynamic Tidal Power (DTP). In this concept, the natural tidal wave propagating along a coastline is blocked using a long dam, inducing a water level difference between both sides of the dam. This water level difference, called the hydraulic head, can be exploited by placing...master thesis 2023

Verhoeven, Cas (author)The urban heat island effect is a well-known and pressing problem in cities today related to urbanisation. It is the phenomenon of an increased ambient air temperature in cities compared to the surrounding rural areas. The use of nature-based solutions has been proposed as a way to help solve this problem. These interventions use nature and...master thesis 2023

(author), Kok, Koen (author)Due to the increasing penetration of distributed energy resources, congestion problems are already emerging in Dutch distribution grids. The available flexibility of assets in the built environment could have the potential to reduce congestion if prosumers are properly incentivized by distribution grid operators (DSOs). However, it is not yet...conference paper 2023

Verhoeven, Imrat (author), Spruit, Shannon (author), van de Grift, E.M.H.R. (author), Cuppen, Eefje (author)Local governments are at the heart of implementing increasingly ambitious national plans for wind energy. While support by local governments for these plans has been studied extensively, only few studies have looked into local governments’ contestation of wind energy development. In this paper we analyze contentious governance processes in which...journal article 2022

Karunanithi, Visweswaran (author), Verhoeven, C.J.M. (author), Silveira Vaucher, C. (author)As the complexity of nanosatellite missions have increased over time, the data generated on-board nanosatellites have increased multiple folds. As a result, there is a need to downlink large amounts of data. Multiple nanosatellite missions have started using spectral efficient modulation schemes recommended in DVB.S2 and DVB.S2X to make the best...conference paper 2022

Verhoeven, Gijs (author), Vergara Barrios, P.P. (author), Kok, Koen (author)Currently, the majority of the available test feeder models are based on the North American type of distribution systems, leaving an absence of representative feeder models for the European (and Dutch) types of distribution systems. Therefore, a standardized set of power flow models for typical Dutch LV distribution networks is developed using...conference paper 2021
