(author)In situ high-temperature laser scanning confocal microscopy is applied to study solidification cracking in a TRIP steel. Solidification cracking was observed in the interdendritic region during the last stage of solidification. Atom probe tomography revealed notable enrichment of phosphorus in the last remaining liquid. Phase field...journal article 2018

Kuitert, L. (author), Volker, L. (author), Hermans, M.H. (author)For financial and strategic reasons, public and semi-public construction clients increasingly depend on private parties to carry out public service delivery. They subcontract operational responsibilities to private parties while remaining socio-politically responsible for ensuring public values. Public administration literature mainly...journal article 2018

Hermans, L.M. (author)Er is de laatste tijd veel aandacht voor het omgaan met onzekerheid en dynamiek in beleid. Zo is er recent de roep om leren door doen, door een overheid die samen met de samenleving het experiment aan durft te gaan. Zo’n benadering van beleid als gezamenlijk experiment is veelbelovend, maar vergt ook passende methoden voor beleidsevaluaties....journal article 2017

Gao, H. (author), Agarwal, G. (author), Amirthalingam, M. (author), Hermans, M.J.M. (author)Hot cracking during laser welding of advanced high-strength steels is reported to be a serious problem by automotive manufacturers. In this work, hot cracking susceptibilities of transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) and dual-phase (DP) steels are studied based on a multi-scale modelling approach. Transient temperatures measured from...journal article 2017

Pazooki, A.M.A. (author), Hermans, M.J.M. (author), Richardson, I.M. (author)Welding residual stress and distortion are strongly linked together. One of the ways to control or reduce the welding distortions is the manipulation of the generated stresses during welding, and final residual stresses exist in the workpiece (stress engineering). In this paper, the control of gas metal arc butt welding distortion of 500 × 250 ×...journal article 2017

Hermans, L.M. (author), Haasnoot, M. (author), ter Maat, Judith (author), Kwakkel, J.H. (author)Adaptation pathways approaches support long-term planning under uncertainty. The use of adaptation pathways implies a systematic monitoring effort to inform future adaptation decisions. Such monitoring should feed into a long-term collaborative learning process between multiple actors at various levels. This raises questions about who should...journal article 2017

Eftekharimilani, P. (author), van der Aa, EM (author), Hermans, M.J.M. (author), Richardson, I.M. (author)This paper presents the effects of double pulse resistance spot welding (RSW) on the microstructural evolution, elemental distribution and mechanical properties of a 3rd generation 1 GPa advanced high strength steel (AHSS). In order to investigate the effect of double pulsing, the steel was exposed to single and various double pulse RSW...journal article 2017

T M (author), van Halsema, G (author)Sectoral planning on water, agriculture and urban development has not been able to prevent increased flood risks and environmental degradation in many deltas. Governments conceive strategic delta planning as a promising planning approach and develop strategic delta plans. Such plans are linked to actions and means for implementation in the...journal article 2016

(author)Background Respiratory viral infections follow an unpredictable clinical course in young children ranging from a common cold to respiratory failure. The transition from mild to severe disease occurs rapidly and is difficult to predict. The pathophysiology underlying disease severity has remained elusive. There is an urgent need to better...journal article 2015

(author)The partitioning behaviour of carbon, phosphorous and boron during the solidification of a resistance spot weld pool was studied using experimental simulations and a phase field model. Steels with varying carbon, phosphorous and boron contents were designed and subjected to a range of resistant spot welding thermal cycles. Mechanical properties...journal article 2015

Jansen, B. (author), Hermans, F.F.J. (author)It is known that spreadsheets are error-prone. It is very diffcult for users to get an overview of the design of the spreadsheet, and this is causing errors. Furthermore users are not always aware of the best way to structure a spread- sheet and just start modeling. To address this we will build a visual language to develop spreadsheet models...journal article 2014

Van Veen, Joeri (author), Hermans, F.F.J. (author)In spreadsheet risk analysis, we often encounter spreadsheets that are confidential. This might hinder adoption of spread- sheet analysis tools, especially web-based ones, as users do not want to have their confidential spreadsheets analyzed. To address this problem, we have developed AnonymousXL, an Excel plugin that makes spreadsheets...journal article 2014
