Blom, Y. (author), Vogt, M.R. (author), Isabella, O. (author)Lead halide perovskites are a promising class of materials for solar cell applications. The perovskite bandgap depends on the material composition and is highly tunable. Opto-electrical device modelling is commonly used to find the optimum perovskite bandgap that maximizes device efficiency or energy yield, either in single junction or multi...journal article 2024

Blom, T. (author), Jenkins, Andrew (author), van den Dobbelsteen, A.A.J.F. (author)The urban energy transition requires innovative heating and cooling systems, as well as enhanced flexibility in electricity usage. This paper explores the theoretical potential for vertical farms to contribute to the energy transition by supplying residual heat to local district heat networks and flexible electricity usage. A stepped approach...journal article 2024

Sun, Y. (author), Chen, B. (author), Zhang, Shizhe (author), Blom, C.B.M. (author), Lukovic, M. (author), Ye, G. (author)With the development of waste recovery techniques, previous research has revealed that coarse fractions of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash (BA) after proper treatment could be applied in the construction sector, while the fines are seldom recovered in practice and normally landfilled. This study explores the potential...journal article 2024

Ylla Arbos, C. (author), Blom, A. (author), White, S. R. (author), Patzwahl, R. (author), Schielen, R.M.J. (author)Erosion-control measures in rivers aim to provide sufficient navigation width, reduce local erosion, or to protect neighboring communities from flooding. These measures are typically devised to solve a local problem. However, local channel modifications trigger a large-scale channel response in the form of migrating bed level and sediment...journal article 2024

Blom, H.A.P. (author)The transition kernel of an ℝ <sup>n</sup>-valued diffusion or jump diffusion process {X <sub>t</sub>} is known to satisfy the Feller property if {X <sub>t</sub>} is the solution of an SDE whose coefficients are Lipschitz continuous. This Lipschitz route to Feller falls short if {X <sub>t</sub>} is the solution of an SDE whose coefficients...journal article 2024

Chowdhury, M. Kifayath (author), Blom, A. (author), Ylla Arbos, C. (author), Verbeek, Merel C. (author), Schropp, Max H.I. (author), Schielen, R.M.J. (author)A bifurcation in an engineered river system (i.e., fixed planform and width) has fewer degrees of freedom in its response to interventions and natural changes than a natural bifurcation system. Our objective is to provide insight into how a bifurcation in an engineered river responds to peak flows and human interventions. To this end, we analyze...journal article 2023

van der Werf, I. (author), Dol, H. S. (author), Blom, K. (author), Heusdens, R. (author), Hendriks, R.C. (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author)In this paper, we show the mathematical equivalence of two popular modulation schemes: OSDM and OTFS. The former is mainly used in underwater acoustic communications, while the latter scheme is a promising modulation technique in radio-frequency communications. Although literature suggests a link between the two modulation schemes by connecting...journal article 2023

Ma, H. (author), Blom, H.A.P. (author)For diffusions, a well-developed approach in rare event estimation is to introduce a suitable factorization of the reach probability and then to estimate these factors through simulation of an Interacting Particle System (IPS). This paper studies IPS based reach probability estimation for General Stochastic Hybrid Systems (GSHS). The...journal article 2023

Blom, T. (author), Jenkins, A.J. (author), van den Dobbelsteen, A.A.J.F. (author)Vertical farms use some resources very efficiently. However, their electricity use is considerable, and a significant amount of waste heat is produced. This paper investigates how the integration of vertical farms in buildings could reduce the use of energy, water, and nutrients collectively across both entities by leveraging potential resource...journal article 2023

Climate change alters the river controls through hydrograph changes and sea level rise. We assess how channel response to climate change compares to channel response to human...journal article 2023

Bannenberg, L.J. (author), Blom, Larissa (author), Sakaki, Kouji (author), Asano, Kohta (author), Schreuders, H. (author)Nanostructured metal hydrides could play a key role in a hydrogen economy. The nanostructuring or confinement of these materials as, e.g., thin films significantly affects the structural and functional properties. For tantalum hydride, a versatile hydrogen sensing material, we show that the confinement of tantalum as a thin film extends the...journal article 2023
