Verma, Amrit Shankar (author), Yan, Jiquan (author), Hu, Weifei (author), Jiang, Zhiyu (author), Shi, Wei (author), Teuwen, Julie J.E. (author)A fiber-reinforced composite wind turbine blade (WTB) is exposed to numerous impact threats during its service life causing damages that can be detrimental to its structural integrity. Currently, impact loads are not considered during blade design, so high safety factors are introduced, which result in a conservative design. However, as wind...review 2023

(author), van der Meer, Marijn (author), Long, David (author), Wouters, B. (author)While the influence of surface melt on Antarctic ice shelf stability can be large, the duration and affected area of melt events are often small. Therefore, melt events are difficult to capture with remote sensing, as satellite sensors always face the trade-off between spatial and temporal resolution. To overcome this limitation, we developed...journal article 2023

(author), Bosch, Johannes G. (author)It has been previously demonstrated that applying an aberrating mask for 2D compressive imaging using a low number of sensors (elements) can significantly improve image resolution, as evaluated via the point spread function. Here we investigate the potential to apply a similar approach for 3D flow monitoring. We conducted a 3D k-Wave simulation...conference paper 2023
