Liang, X. (author), Bos, Cornelis (author), Hermans, M.J.M. (author), Richardson, I.M. (author)A cellular automata (CA) model has been developed for solidification simulation considering the kinetic undercooling at the interface. The state-of-the-art model incorporates a decentered growth algorithm to suppress the grid anisotropy and a generalized height function method to calculate the curvature accurately. To develop a CA model which...journal article 2023

(author), Marcos, Marta (author), Hernandez-Carrasco, Ismael (author), Slangen, Aimée B.A. (author)Attribution of sea-level change to its different drivers is typically done using a sea-level budget approach. While the global mean sea-level budget is considered closed, closing the budget on a finer spatial scale is more complicated due to, for instance, limitations in our observational system and the spatial processes contributing to regional...journal article 2023

Mishra, V. (author), Babu, A. (author), Schreurs, R. (author), Wu, K. (author), Hermans, M.J.M. (author), Ayas, C. (author)Wire and Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) emerged as a manufacturing process for large scale structures with extensive form and design freedom. WAAM can be fully exploited once the relation between the transient thermal history and its relation to microstructure development and resultant mechanical properties is established. This relation...journal article 2023

(author), Kopp, Robert E. (author), Oppenheimer, Michael (author), Slangen, Aimée B.A. (author)Sea-level rise amplifies the frequency of extreme sea levels by raising their baseline height. Amplifications are often projected for arbitrary future years and benchmark frequencies. Consequently, such projections do not indicate when flood risk thresholds may be crossed given the current degree of local coastal protection. To better support...journal article 2023

Sharko, Anastasiia (author), Spitzbarth, B. (author), Hermans, Thomas M. (author), Eelkema, R. (author)Shunts, alternative pathways in chemical reaction networks (CRNs), are ubiquitous in nature, enabling adaptability to external and internal stimuli. We introduce a CRN in which the recovery of Michael-accepting species is driven by oxidation chemistry. Using weak oxidants can enable access to two shunts within this CRN with different kinetics...journal article 2023
