Mutikanga, H.E. (author), Sharma, S.K. (author), Vairavamoorthy, K. (author)Water utilities particularly in the developing countries continue to operate with considerable inefficiencies in terms of water and revenue losses. With increasing water demand and scarcity, utilities require effective strategies for optimum use of available water resources. Diverse water loss reduction options exist. Deciding on which option to...journal article 2011

Adam, A.J.L. (author)In the last decades, many research teams working at Terahertz frequencies focused their efforts on surpassing the diffraction limit. Numerous techniques have been investigated, combining methods existing at optic wavelength with THz system such as Time Domain Spectroscopy. The actual development led on one side to a resolution as high as ?/3000...journal article 2011

Wolterbeek, N. (author), Nelissen, R.G.H.H. (author), Valstar, E.R. (author)Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare a broad range of total knee prostheses with different design parameters to determine whether in vivo kinematics was consistently related to design. The hypothesis was that there are no clear recognizable differences in in vivo kinematics between different design parameters or prostheses. Methods: At...journal article 2011

De Bruin, M. (author), Bode, P. (author)The development on neutron activation analysis (NAA) into a technique of practical interest effectively started about 60 years ago, when nuclear reactors became available and widely accessible as intense sources of neutrons. During 50 out these 60 years, the series of Modern Trends in Activation Analysis (MTAA) Conferences acted as a true...journal article 2011

(author)The effect of salinity on the activity of nitrifying bacteria, floc characteristics, and microbial community structure accessed by fluorescent in situ hybridization and polymerase chain reaction–denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis techniques was investigated. Two sequencing batch reactors (SRB1 and SBR2) treating synthetic wastewater were...journal article 2011

Van Bree, R.J.P. (author), Tiberius, C.C.J.M. (author)The performance of real-time single-frequency precise point positioning is demonstrated in terms of position accuracy. This precise point positioning technique relies on predicted satellite orbits, predicted global ionospheric maps, and in particular on real-time satellite clock estimates. Results are presented using solely measurements from a...journal article 2011

De Boer, J. (author)Our closest relative the chimpanzee seems to display proto-moral behavior. Some scholars emphasize the similarities between humans and chimpanzees, others some key differences. This paper aims is to formulate a set of intermediate conditions between a sometimes helpful chimpanzee and moral man. I specify these intermediate conditions as...journal article 2011

Reilingh, M.L. (author), Tuijthof, G.J.M. (author), Van Dijk, C.N. (author), Blankevoort, L. (author)Background: Malalignment of the hindfoot can be corrected with a calcaneal osteotomy (CO). A well-selected osteotomy angle in the sagittal plane will reduce the shear force in the osteotomy plane while walking. The purpose was to determine the presence of a relationship between the foot geometry and loading of the calcaneus, which influences the...journal article 2011

Van der Heijden, H.M.H. (author), Dol, K. (author), Oxley, M. (author)The central proposition advanced in this paper is that differences in the structure of housing systems, and specifically the differences between dynamic and static housing systems, are crucial to an explanation of the varying impacts between countries of the international financial crisis. The proposition is illustrated with reference to Ireland...journal article 2011

Bode, P. (author)Neutron activation laboratories worldwide are at a turning point at which new staff has to be found for the retiring pioneers from the 1960s–1970s. A scientific career in a well-understood technique, often characterized as ‘mature’ may only be attractive to young scientists if still challenges for further improvement and inspiring new...journal article 2011

The proposed protocol, called Noent, is based on cryptographic puzzles to avoid the indiscriminate disclose of the confidential information stored on tags and on an innovative role...journal article 2011

Van Ham, M. (author), Tammaru, T. (author)Ethnic minority–majority unions—also referred to as mixed ethnic unions—are often seen as the ultimate evidence of the integration of ethnic minorities into their host societies. We investigated minority–majority unions in Estonia, where ethnic minorities account for one-third of the total population (Russians 26%, followed by Ukrainians,...journal article 2011

Pommeranz, A. (author), Wiggers, P. (author), Brinkman, W.P. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)We investigate people’s attitudes toward the possible use of negotiation support systems (NSS) in different social contexts and the consequences for their design. To explore functional requirements and social acceptance in different use contexts, we followed a threestep approach. In the first step, we conducted a number of focus groups with...journal article 2011

Dodds, P.G. (author), De Pagter, B. (author)It is shown that order continuity of the norm and weak sequential completeness in non-commutative strongly symmetric spaces of ? -measurable operators are respectively equivalent to properties (u) and (V?) of Pelczynski. In addition, it is shown that each strongly symmetric space with separable (Banach) bidual is necessarily reflexive. These...journal article 2011

Van der Pijl, S.P. (author), Oosterlee, C.W. (author)This work aims to model the optimal control of dike heights. The control problem leads to so-called Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) variational inequalities, where the dike-increase and reinforcement times act as input quantities to the control problem. The HJB equations are solved numerically with an Essentially Non-Oscillatory (ENO) method. The...journal article 2011

Santofimia, M.J. (author), Zhao, L. (author), Sietsma, J. (author)The application of the quenching and partitioning (Q&P) process in steels involves a microstructural evolution that is more complex than just the formation of martensite followed by carbon partitioning from martensite to austenite. Examples of this complexity are the formation of epitaxial ferrite during the first quenching step and the...journal article 2011

(author)In experiments of machining hardened tool steels (such as AISI H11, H13, and D2, up to 56 HRC) by commercial Ø 0.5 mm square endmills, it is observed that the tested micro endmills showed severe wear at an early stage of the process due to chipping off around cutting edge corners, resulting in unsatisfactory tool life and product appearance ...journal article 2011
