The Future of all glass structures

Nijsse, R. (author)

This paper is new developments in structural engineering related especially to the use of the material glass. After a philosophical discussion about why glass is the material for the Future, all glass elements and related techniques are presented from which an all glass building can be assembled. To conclude this paper ,all glass structures like...

The significance of the evanescent spectrum in structure-waveguide interaction problems

Tsouvalas, A. (author), Van Dalen, K.N. (author), Metrikine, A. (author)

Modal decomposition is often applied in elastodynamics and acoustics for the solution of problems related to propagation of mechanical disturbances in waveguides. One of the key elements of this method is the solution of an eigenvalue problem for obtaining the roots of the dispersion equation, which signify the wavenumbers of the waves that may...

Reservoir potential of thin-bedded sandstone in continental mudrock successions - The search for hidden treasures

Donselaar, M.E. (author), Bouman, L. (author), Noordijk, N. (author), Van Toorenenburg, K.A. (author), Weltje, G.J. (author)

The subsurface of the West European gas province contains up to several hundred meters thick continuous Upper Rotliegend and Lower Triassic mud rock sequences which have to date been labelled as nonreservoir ‘waste zone’. The mud rock formed as fluvial floodplain deposits in a semi-arid climate. The sequences contain thin-bedded porous and...

A thick level set interface model for simulating fatigue-drive delamination in composites

Latifi, M. (author), Van der Meer, F.P. (author), Sluys, L.J. (author)

This paper presents a new damage model for simulating fatigue-driven delamination in composite laminates. This model is developed based on the Thick Level Set approach (TLS) and provides a favorable link between damage mechanics and fracture mechanics through the non-local evaluation of the energy release rate. Previously, this approach has been...

Performance study of a double crossover for facing and trailing directions

Liu, X. (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Shevtsov, I. (author)

This paper presented the performance study of two frogs in a double crossover in the railway network in the Netherlands. These frogs are located on the same track line. Each train passes through Frog 1 in the facing direction and Frog 2 in the trailing direction. Both frogs are monitored with ESAH-M crossing dynamic behaviour measurement tool...

Long term effects of climate on human adaptation in the middle Gila River Valley, Arizona, America

Zhu, T. (author), Ertsen, M.W. (author), Van de Giesen, N.C. (author)

The Hohokam, an irrigation-based society in the American South West, used the river valleys of the Salt and Gila Rivers between 500 and 1500 AD to grow their crops. Such irrigated crops are linking human agency, water sources and the general natural environment. In order to grow crops, water available through rain and river flows needs to be...

Recent developments in geostatistical resource evaluation - Learning from production data for optimized extraction of mineral resources

Benndorf, J. (author)

The resource model is the foundation for mineral project evaluation, mine planning and operations production control. The representativeness of such a model depends on both, the quality of data available and the modelling technique applied. This contribution reviews recent developments in geostatistical resource modelling first focusing on...

Protocols for communication and governance of risks

Vrouwenvelder, A.C.W.M. (author), Lind, N.C. (author), Faber, M.H. (author)

The aim of this paper is to explain the need to organize the development of standard protocols for communication about major public risks. Tragic events, such as inadequate earthquake preparedness or great unnecessary losses of life due to public misunderstandings underline the importance of such protocols to protect the public and support...

Toward industrial scale synthesis of ultrapure singlet nanoparticles with controllable sizes in a continuous gas-phase process

Feng, J. (author), Biskos, G. (author), Schmidt-Ott, A. (author)

Continuous gas-phase synthesis of nanoparticles is associated with rapid agglomeration, which can be a limiting factor for numerous applications. In this report, we challenge this paradigm by providing experimental evidence to support that gas-phase methods can be used to produce ultrapure nonagglomerated “singlet” nanoparticles having tunable...

Experimental study of key parameters investigation in turnout crossing degradation process

Liu, X. (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Shevtsov, I. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author)

The continuous increasing demand of public transportation capacity requires the railway network operating in tight schedule. The high transporting volumes not only aggravate the degradation of railway infrastructure but also shorten the time for maintenance. Well-arranged infrastructure maintenance contributes to the budget reduction and...
