Endo, A. (author), Pascual Laguna, A. (author), Hähnle, S.A. (author), Karatsu, K. (author), Thoen, David (author), Murugesan, V. (author), Baselmans, J.J.A. (author)Superconducting resonators and transmission lines are fundamental building blocks of integrated circuits for millimeter-submillimeter astronomy. Accurate simulation of radiation loss from the circuit is crucial for the design of these circuits because radiation loss increases with frequency, and can thereby deteriorate the system performance....conference paper 2020

Petitfrere, Martin (author), Nichita, Dan Vladimir (author), Voskov, D.V. (author), Zaydullin, Rustem (author), Bogdanov, Igor (author)Several compositional reservoir simulators based on equations of state (EoS) have been designed. Yet, few of them can deal with thermal processes such as steam injection and no fully compositional thermal simulation of the steam injection process has been proposed with extra-heavy oils yet. Those simulations appear essential and will offer...journal article 2020

Anand, C. (author), Groves, R.M. (author), Shroff, S. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)In this paper we ultrasonic signals from array transducers are simulated using the Thompson and Gray measurement model. The measurement model consists of a beam model, a system efficiency factor which characterizes the response of the electro-mechanical and electrical components of the system, and a flaw scattering model. To inspect layered...conference paper 2020

van Bilsen, Daniël (author), Huang, Yilin (author), Li, Fen (author)China is undergoing large changes to tackle carbon dioxide emissions and air pollution. While the top-down governance allows for clear setting of emission reduction targets for industrial sectors and major cities, reducing emissions in residential sectors in smaller (the so-called low-tier) cities remain challenging and often unaddressed.

Landman, H.M. (author)After several recent flight safety events, such as the accident of Air France flight 447 in 2009, investigators determined that surprise and startle can severely disrupt pilot responses. They concluded that pilots need to be better prepared for unexpected and potentially startling situations. In response, aviation safety authorities have...doctoral thesis 2019
