Knapper, A.S. (author), Hagenzieker, M.P. (author), Brookhuis, K.A. (author)Distracted driving is considered to be an important factor in road safety. To investigate how experienced user's driving behaviour is affected by in-vehicle technology, a fixed-base driving simulator was used. 20 participants drove twice in a rich simulated traffic environment while performing secondary, i.e. mobile phone and navigation system...journal article 2014

Kuiper, E. (author), Van Dam, F. (author), Reiter, A. (author), Janssen, M.F.W.H.A. (author)Cloud adoption in the public sector is taking off slowly, which is perceived as a problem. Models of factors influencing cloud adoption are derived for better understanding using literature and results obtained via desk research and surveys by the Cloud for Europe project. We conclude that several factors require further research, such as the...conference paper 2014

Trung, L.H. (author), Van der Meer, J.W. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author)Little is known about the strength of the land-side slopes of the Vietnamese sea dikes under overtopping attack. Some grass-covered slopes were tested by a wave overtopping simulator. The paper describes the simulator and presents the test results. The tested grass covers could withstand overtopping rates varying from 20 l/s to 100 l/s per meter...journal article 2014

Purniawan, A. (author)The American Cancer Society reported that the major public health problem is cancer. Based on the report, colonic cancer is the major cancer type in the digestive system. In addition, the percentage of death rate due to this cancer is 50%. Surgery to remove the part of the colon infected by the cancer and then reconnect the healthy one is called...doctoral thesis 2014

(author)Competition for water between humans and ecosystems is set to become a flash point in the coming decades in many parts of the world. An entirely new and comprehensive quantitative framework is needed to establish a holistic understanding of that competition, thereby enabling the development of effective mediation strategies. This paper presents...journal article 2014

Babal, P. (author)In summary, this thesis shows the development and nanostructure analysis of doped silicon oxide layers. These layers are applied in thin-film silicon single and double junction solar cells. Concepts of intermediate reflectors (IR), consisting of silicon and/or zinc oxide, are applied in tandem cells. Multi-stack Bragg reflector IRs are tested in...doctoral thesis 2014

Majcen, D. (author), Itard, L.C.M. (author), Visscher, H.J. (author)In 2002 EU adopted the Energy Performance of Buildings directive which was subsequently adopted by the member states. However, more than a decade later, no national registers of certificates have become available publicly or to research institutions in order to give feedback on the introduced regulation. By exploring the 4 million certificates...conference paper 2014

Kaelen, J.W.E.N. (author)The financial crisis and the introduction of low-budget companies have brought major changes to the air freight community. Competition became stronger and cost control became more important. This led to new ways of organizing aircraft Maintenance, Repair, Overhauls and Upgrades (MRO&U), which became performance oriented. For the triad of...doctoral thesis 2014

Hudl, M. (author), Campanini, D. (author), Caron, L. (author), Höglin, V. (author), Sahlberg, M. (author), Nordblad, P. (author), Rydh, A. (author)The specific heat and thermodynamics of Fe2P single crystals around the first-order paramagnetic to ferromagnetic (FM) phase transition at TC?217K are empirically investigated. The magnitude and direction of the magnetic field relative to the crystal axes govern the derived H?T phase diagram. Strikingly different phase contours are obtained for...journal article 2014

Roupioz, L.F.S. (author), Nerry, F. (author), Jia, L. (author), Menenti, M. (author)Several methods currently exist to efficiently correct topographic effects on the radiance measured by satellites. Most of those methods use topographic information and satellite data at the same spatial resolution. In this study, the 30 m spatial resolution data of the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) from ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal...journal article 2014

Van Heck, B. (author), Mi, S. (author), Akhmerov, A.R. (author)We show how the superconducting phase difference in a Josephson junction may be used to split the Kramers degeneracy of its energy levels and to remove all the properties associated with time-reversal symmetry. The superconducting phase difference is known to be ineffective in two-terminal short Josephson junctions, where irrespective of the...journal article 2014

Ali, Y.S.A. (author)Population growth in the Blue Nile Basin has led to fast land-use changes from forest to agricultural land, which resulted in speeding up the soil erosion processes producing highly negative impacts on the local soil fertility and agricultural productivity. The eroded sediment is transported downstream by water and sinks in the lower basin where...doctoral thesis 2014

Hiller, C. (author), Hasselaar, E. (author), Gervind, P. (author)The general goal of tenant involvement is to ensure that retrofitting projects are successful not only from a technical point of view but also from a social perspective. When possible, strategies should be included to reward users for energy efficient behaviour. Energy monitoring and feedback are tools in support of energy savings. But how do...conference paper 2014
