Van Dijk, T. (author)Wherever there are problems with flooding defences, broken levees or other water-related threats, often one of the things you’ll hear is the call to ‘bring in the Dutch’. But are we still as successful as all that? Many of those in the water construction sector think not.journal article 2014

(author)The martensitic transformation behaviour of the metastable austenite phase in low-alloyed transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) steels has been studied in situ using high-energy X-ray diffraction during deformation. The austenite stability during tensile deformation has been evaluated at different length scales. A powder diffraction analysis...journal article 2014

Miao, X.F. (author), Caron, L. (author), Roy, P. (author), Dung, N.H. (author), Zhang, L. (author), Kockelmann, W.A. (author), De Groot, R.A. (author), Van Dijk, N.H. (author), Brück, E. (author)Neutron-diffraction experiments on the (Mn,Fe)2(P,Si)-type compounds have shown a site preference of Si atoms in the hexagonal structure. The degree of ordering of Si depends on the Si/P ratio, while it is independent of the Mn/Fe ratio. The ferromagnetic-paramagnetic magnetoelastic transition is closely related to the size of the magnetic...journal article 2014

(author)While earlier studies on transformation-induced-plasticity (TRIP) steels focused on the determination of the austenite-to-martensite decomposition in uniform deformation or thermal fields, the current research focuses on the determination of the local retained austenite-to-martensite transformation behaviour in an inhomogeneous yet carefully...journal article 2014

Guillou, F. (author), Porcari, G. (author), Yibole, H. (author), Van Dijk, N.H. (author), Brück, E. (author)Large magnetically driven temperature changes are observed in MnFe(P,Si,B) materials simultaneously with large entropy changes, limited (thermal or magnetic) hysteresis, and good mechanical stability. The partial substitution of B for P in MnFe(P,Si) compounds is found to be an ideal parameter to control the latent heat observed at the Curie...journal article 2014

(author)The new German standard on the calculation of calcite saturation in drinking water, DIN 38404-10, 2012 (DIN), marks a change in drinking water standardization from using simplified equations applicable for nomographs and simple calculators to using extensive chemical modeling requiring computer programs. The standard outlines the chemical...journal article 2013
