Pillai, A. (author)Millimeter-wave passive radiometers have earlier been designed in III-V integrated circuit (IC) technologies, due to their higher carrier mobility when compared to silicon, resulting in higher transit frequencies (fT) thereby enabling to operate at higher frequencies. However, increased fT in SiGe BiCMOS technology has generated interest for...master thesis 2014

Pilania, G. (author), Thijsse, B.J. (author), Hoagland, R.G. (author), Lazic, I. (author), Valone, S.M. (author), Liu, X.Y. (author)We study the coherent and semi-coherent Al/?-Al2O3 interfaces using molecular dynamics simulations with a mixed, metallic-ionic atomistic model. For the coherent interfaces, both Al-terminated and O-terminated nonstoichiometric interfaces have been studied and their relative stability has been established. To understand the misfit accommodation...journal article 2014

Wu, W. (author), Long, J.R. (author), Staszewski, B. (author)A novel and useful millimeter-wave digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) that achieve a tuning range greater than 10% and fine frequency resolution less than 1 MHz. Switched metal capacitors are distributed across a passive resonator for tuning the oscillation frequency. To obtain sub-MHz frequency resolution, tuning step attenuation techniques...patent 2014

Yang, J. (author), Lutz, M. (author), Grzech, A. (author), Mulder, F.M. (author), Dingemans, T.J. (author)Self-assembled Cu-based coordination polymers derived from thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (Cu-TDC) and furan-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (Cu-FDC) were synthesized via a solvothermal method and their H2 adsorption behaviour was investigated and contrasted with isophthalic acid (Cu-m-BDC) and terephthalic acid (Cu-BDC) derivatives. Both heterocyclic...journal article 2014

Krzeminska, D.M. (author), Bogaard, T.A. (author), Debieche, T.H. (author), Cervi, F. (author), Marc, V. (author), Malet, J.P. (author)The unsaturated zone largely controls groundwater recharge by buffering precipitation while at the same time providing preferential flow paths for infiltration. The importance of preferential flow on landslide hydrology is recognised in the literature; however, its monitoring and quantification remain difficult. This paper presents a combined...journal article 2014

Hartanto, D. (author), Kampmann, I.L. (author), Morina, N. (author), Emmelkamp, P.G.M. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Brinkman, W.P. (author)Virtual reality exposure therapy has been proposed as a viable alternative in the treatment of anxiety disorders, including social anxiety disorder. Therapists could benefit from extensive control of anxiety eliciting stimuli during virtual exposure. Two stimuli controls are studied in this study: the social dialogue situation, and the dialogue...journal article 2014

Klein Haneveld, B.A. (author)Image registration is a technique where two images or volumes are mapped onto each other. In medical imaging this is used to combine and compare images from patients in order to find abnormalities or to track a patient’s treatment effects over time. There are registration algorithms and software packages available, but they are cumbersome and...master thesis 2014

Van der Blom, J.G. (author)As a result of rising operational costs, economic uncertainties and fierce competition KLM is pressurized on their European network. The ‘all-fits-one’ approach KLM precedes is no longer viable seen from an economic and customer point of view. Customer demand increased value for money, while KLM tries to further optimize its current way of...master thesis 2014

Van Meer, B.J. (author)In the near future, human cell based Organ-on-Chip models are likely to replace animal experimentation during the development of new drugs. Not only is animal testing associated with ethical issues, but human cell based models can also give a more accurate representation of the human physiology, resulting in more reliable results of drug...master thesis 2014

Dadvar, B. (author)This study deals with the finite element analysis to determine the behavior of reinforced concrete beams and high walls. It is assumed that the behavior of these members can be described by a plane stress field. This thesis consists of two major parts. The first part is about reinforcing of slender beams with the Linear Elastic Finite Element...master thesis 2014

He, Y. (author), Aubry, P. (author), Le Chevalier, F. (author), Yarovoy, A. (author)A new approach is proposed to extract the slow-time feature of human motion in high-resolution radars. The approach is based on the self-similarity matrix (SSM) of the radar signals. The Mutual Information is used as a measure of similarity. The SSMs of different radar signals (high-resolution range profile, micro-Doppler, and range-Doppler...journal article 2014

Dewan, A. (author)The offshore wind industry is growing fast with an average annual market growth rate of almost 7% in the next five years. Service of wind turbines has proven to be expensive and difficult, especially offshore. A well-coordinated support organisation, optimized logistic and maintenance strategies are required to effectively reduce the costs...master thesis 2014

Van den Brink, F. (author)Scour hole formation around offshore monopile foundations is a threat for the structure’s stability. Large uncertainty leads to conservatism in design codes and hence to high construction costs. Under the same hydrodynamic loading as for scour hole formation the soil can liquefy due to structural vibrations or waves. The aim of this study is to...master thesis 2014

(author)In this communication we report on the synthesis and charge mobility of highly soluble perylenebisimid derivatives.We show that introduction of alkylester side chains results in compounds combining a high solubility with charge mobilities up to 0.22 cm2 V_1 s_1. These materials are therefore interesting as an electron acceptor for solution...journal article 2014
