Hoogreef, M.F.M. (author), Van Dijk, R.E.C. (author), La Rocca, G. (author), d'Ippolito, R. (author)The Product Development Process (PDP) of manufacturing companies requires the efficient management of huge amounts of data from different sources and their integration in the sub-processes that compose the product development chain. This is a very challenging endeavor for which an integrated approach does not yet exist. The EC FP7 Project iProd...conference paper 2014

Damen, K. (author), Faber, R. (author), Gnutek, R. (author), Van Dijk, H.A.J. (author), Trapp, C. (author), Valenz, L. (author)This paper summarizes the final results of the pilot plant operation and R&D programme of the CO2 Catch-up project (2008- 2013). The objective of the CO2 Catch-up project is to demonstrate pre-combustion CO2 capture at the pilot plant in Buggenum, the Netherlands, in order to verify the technology performance and to generate knowledge in the...journal article 2014

Van Dijk, H.A.J. (author), Damen, K. (author), Makkee, M. (author), Trapp, C. (author)In the Nuon/Vattenfall CO2 Catch-up project, a pre-combustion CO2 capture pilot plant was built and operated at the Buggenum IGCC power plant, the Netherlands. The pilot consist of sweet water-gas shift, physical CO2 absorption and CO2 compression. The technology performance was verified and validated models were obtained. This paper describes...journal article 2014

Stunt, J.J. (author), Wulms, P.H. (author), Kerkhoffs, G.M. (author), Dankelman, J. (author), Van Dijk, C.N. (author), Tuijthof, G.J.M. (author)Background: Since simulators offer important advantages, they are increasingly used in medical education and medical skills training that require physical actions. A wide variety of simulators have become commercially available. It is of high importance that evidence is provided that training on these simulators can actually improve clinical...journal article 2014

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

Picelli, R. (author), Van Dijk, R. (author), Vicente, W.M. (author), Pavanello, R. (author), Langelaar, M. (author), Van Keuen, A. (author)This paper presents an evolutionary topology optimization method for applications in design of completely submerged buoyant devices with design-dependent fluid pressure loading. This type of structures aid rig installations and pipeline transportation in all water depths in offshore structural engineering. The proposed optimization method seeks...conference paper 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

(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)Steels are among the most widely used construction materials as their mechanical properties can be tuned over a very wide range of desired combinations of strength formability and other properties. However, when exposed for long times to high temperatures steel components can exhibit premature and low-ductility creep fracture, which arises from...conference paper 2013
