Valdesueiro Gonzalez, D. (author), Meesters, G.M.H. (author), Kreutzer, M.T. (author), Van Ommen, J.R. (author)We have deposited aluminium oxide films by atomic layer deposition on titanium oxide nanoparticles in a fluidized bed reactor at 27 ± 3 °C and atmospheric pressure. Working at room temperature allows coating heat-sensitive materials, while working at atmospheric pressure would simplify the scale-up of this process. We performed 4, 7 and 15...journal article 2015

Ariananda, D.D. (author)At the heart of digital signal processing (DSP) are the sampling and quantization processes, which convert analog signals into discrete samples and which are implemented in the form of analog to digital converters (ADCs). In some recent applications, there is an increased demand for DSP applications to process signals having a very wide...doctoral thesis 2015

Bensdorp, S. (author)In petroleum production and exploration, having good information about a hydrocarbon reservoir is paramount to successful exploitation. A popular tool is to probe the electric conductivity in a well to obtain direct information of the well surrounding. As wells are nowadays mostly horizontally drilled, this information is becoming more important...doctoral thesis 2015

Ansari, M.H. (author), Nazarov, Y.V. (author)We evaluate Rényi entropy flows from generic quantum heat engines (QHE) to a weakly coupled probe environment kept in thermal equilibrium. We show that the flows are determined not only by heat flow but also by a quantum coherent flow that can be separately measured in experiment apart from the heat flow measurement. The same pertains to Shannon...journal article 2015

Liang, K. (author), Zhang, Y. (author), Sun, Q. (author), Ruess, M. (author)A knock-down factor is commonly used to take into account the obvious decline of the buckling load in a cylindrical shell caused by the inevitable imperfections. In 1968, NASA guideline SP-8007 gave knock-down factors which rely on a lower-bound curve taken from experimental data. Recent research has indicated that the NASA knock-down factors...journal article 2015

Dal Gesso, S. (author)The clouds that form in the atmospheric region close to the Earth surface work as a parasol for our planet. Their primary effect is to reflect the incoming solar radiation and in this way to cool the Earth. Tlie more extensive and the thicker they are, the more radiation is reflected back to space. The extension is generally quantified by the...doctoral thesis 2015

Van Essen, G.M. (author)The process of depleting an oil reservoir can be poured into an optimal control problem with the objective to maximize economic performance over the life of the ?eld. Despite its large potential, life-cycle optimization has not yet found its way into operational environments. The objective of this thesis is to improve operational applicability...doctoral thesis 2015

(author)Background The number of older adults with dementia is expected to increase. Dementia is not only characterized by a decline in cognition, also other functions, for example, physical functioning change. A possible means to decrease the decline in these functions, or even improve them, could be increasing the amount of physical activity. A...journal article 2015

Belmonte Rivas, M. (author), Veefkind, J.P. (author), Eskes, H. (author), Levelt, P.F. (author)We derive a global climatology of tropospheric NO2 profiles from OMI cloudy observations for the year 2006 using the cloud slicing method on six pressure levels centered about 280, 380, 500, 620, 720 and 820 hPa. A comparison between OMI and the TM4 model tropospheric NO2 profiles reveals striking overall similarities, which confer great...journal article 2015

Ansuini, C. (author), Cavallo, A. (author), Koul, A. (author), Jacono, M. (author), Yang, Y. (author), Becchio, C. (author)Research on reach-to-grasp movements generally concentrates on kinematics values that are expression of maxima, in particular the maximum aperture of the hand and the peak of wrist velocity. These parameters provide a snapshot description of movement kinematics at a specific time point during reach, i.e., the maximum within a set of value, but...journal article 2015

Vermolen, F.J. (author), Gefen, A. (author)A phenomenological model is formulated to model cellular forces on extracellular material. The model is capable of modelling both expansion and contractile forces. This work is based on the assumption of linear elasticity, which allows a superposition argument to arrive at fundamental expressions for cellular forces. It is also shown how the...journal article 2015

(author)Introducing the notion of Participatory Demand-Supply (PDS) systems as socio-technical systems, this paper focuses on a new approach to coordinating demand and supply in dynamic environments. A participatory approach to demand and supply provides a new frame of reference for system design, for which the engagement of all stakeholders plays an...journal article 2015

Solis Escalante, D. (author)Glycolysis, a biochemical pathway that oxidizes glucose to pyruvate, is at the core of sugar metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (bakers’ yeast). Glycolysis is not only a catabolic route involved in energy conservation, but also provides building blocks for anabolism. From an applied perspective, several glycolytic intermediates are key...doctoral thesis 2015
