van Damme, M. (author), den Ouden-van der Horst, D. (author)Methods have been developed to predict how hydrodynamic loads acting on nearly saturated porous media are transmitted to the subsoil. In line with the effective stress principle of Terzaghi, these methods apply the boundary conditions that the effective stresses at the surface of a porous medium are zero, and that the pore water pressures...journal article 2024

Wani, F.M. (author), Shipurkar, U. (author), Dong, J. (author), Polinder, H. (author)This paper compares active and passive cooling systems in tidal turbine power electronic converters. The comparison is based on the lifetime of the IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) power modules, calculated from the accumulated fatigue due to thermal cycling. The lifetime analysis accounts for the influence of site conditions, namely...journal article 2021

Dang, Y. (author), Grundel, D.A.J. (author), Youk, H.O. (author)Cells form spatial patterns by coordinating their gene expressions. How a group of mesoscopic numbers (hundreds to thousands) of cells, without pre-existing morphogen gradients and spatial organization, self-organizes spatial patterns remains poorly understood. Of particular importance are dynamic spatial patterns such as spiral waves that...journal article 2020

Maan, D.C. (author), van Prooijen, Bram (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author)We use the results of a one-dimensional morphodynamic model and the basis of the “Lagrangian equilibrium state” (Maan et al., 2015, https://doi.org/10.1002/2014JF003311) to derive a quantitative relationship between the progradation speed of tidal flats and the suspended sediment concentration in their adjacent waters and show that the speed...journal article 2019

Townend, I (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author), Zhou, Z. (author)Whilst much attention has been given to models that describe wave, tide and sediment transport processes in sufficient detail to determine the local changes in bed level over a relatively detailed representation of the bathymetry, far less attention has been given to models that consider the problem at a much larger scale (e.g. that of...journal article 2016

(author), Atkinson, J.H. (author), Tanaka, S. (author), Westerink, H.J. (author), Westerink, L.G. (author)Hurricane Ike (2008) made landfall near Galveston, Texas, as a moderate intensity storm. Its large wind field in conjunction with the Louisiana-Texas coastline's broad shelf and large scale concave geometry generated waves and surge that impacted over 1000 km of coastline. Ike's complex and varied wave and surge response physics included: the...journal article 2013

Ooms, G. (author), Pourquie, M.J.B.M. (author), Beerens, J.C. (author)A numerical study has been made of horizontal core-annular flow: the flow of a high-viscosity liquid core surrounded by a low-viscosity liquid annular layer through a horizontal pipe. Special attention is paid to the question how the buoyancy force on the core, caused by a density difference between the core and the annular layer, is...journal article 2013

De Haan, V. (author), Santbergen, R. (author), Tijssen, M. (author), Zeman, M. (author)A study is presented giving the response of three types of fiber-optic interferometers by which a standing wave through an object is investigated. The three types are a Sagnac, Mach–Zehnder and Michelson–Morley interferometer. The response of the Mach–Zehnder interferometer is similar to the Sagnac interferometer. However, the Sagnac...journal article 2011

Mols, B. (author)All over the world hundreds of thousands of initiatives are being developed to generate sustainable energy. The great majority of these are aimed at solar and wind energy, if only because they are available all over the world. Whats more, the initial investments required are relatively low and are often helped by government support, so even...journal article 2005

Metrikine, A.V. (author), Wolfert, A.F.M. (author), Vrouwenvelder, A.C.W.M. (author)Steady-state vibrations of periodically supported structures under a moving load are analytically investigated. The following three structures are considered: an overhead power line for a train, a long suspended bridge and a railway track. The study is based on the application of so-called 'periodicity condition', which implies that the shape of...journal article 1999
