Liu, Z. (author)Garments, one of the human basic needs, were customized and handmade before the Industrial Revolution. After the realization of mass production, the cost of a piece of clothing became lower, but some disadvantages arose. Garments were no longer made to measure and overproduction caused environmental problems. The new developments in digital...doctoral thesis 2023

Templated Synthesis of Diamond Nanopillar Arrays Using Porous Anodic Aluminium Oxide (AAO) MembranesZhang, C. (author), Liu, Z. (author), Li, Chun (author), Buijnsters, J.G. (author)Diamond nanostructures are mostly produced from bulk diamond (single- or polycrystalline) by using time-consuming and/or costly subtractive manufacturing methods. In this study, we report the bottom-up synthesis of ordered diamond nanopillar arrays by using porous anodic aluminium oxide (AAO). Commercial ultrathin AAO membranes were adopted as...journal article 2023

(author)Chromatin replication involves the assembly and activity of the replisome within the nucleosomal landscape. At the core of the replisome is the Mcm2-7 complex (MCM), which is loaded onto DNA after binding to the Origin Recognition Complex (ORC). In yeast, ORC is a dynamic protein that diffuses rapidly along DNA, unless halted by origin...journal article 2023

Liu, Z. (author), Doubrovski, E.L. (author), Geraedts, Jo M.P. (author), Yam, Y (author), Wang, W. (author), Wang, C.C.L. (author)In this paper, we propose a method to reconstruct a digital 3D model of a stolen/damaged statue using photogrammetric methods. This task is challenging because the number of available photos for a stolen statue is in general very limited – especially the side/back view photos. Besides using standard structure-from-motion and multi-view stereo...conference paper 2023

Liu, Z. (author), Schraven, D.F.J. (author), de Jong, Martin (author), Hertogh, M.J.C.M. (author)Rapid global urbanization, urban renewal and changes in people's lifestyles have led to both an increase in waste generation and more complex waste types. In response to these changes, many local governments have invested in municipal solid waste infrastructure (MSWI) to implement circular strategies. However, matching and bridging the costly...journal article 2023
