Teunissen, P.J.G. (author), De Bakker, P.F. (author)In this contribution the integrity of single- receiver, single-channel, multi-frequency GNSS models is studied. The uniformly most powerful invariant test statistics for spikes and slips are derived and their detection capabilities are described by means of minimal detectable biases (MDBs). Analytical closed-form expressions of the phase-slip,...journal article 2013

Qiu, J. (author), Molenaar, A.A.A. (author), Van de Ven, M.F.C. (author), Wu, S. (author), Yu, J. (author)Self healing of asphalt mixes is known for more than four decades. However, it is a complex phenomenon which depends on the duration of the rest period, temperature, crack size, etc. In order to quantify the self healing behaviour of asphalt mixes, a test setup was proposed in this research using an asphalt beam on an elastic foundation. Within...journal article 2012

(author)There is a growing international recognition that flood risk management in optima forma should be a programmed and flexible process of continuously improving management practices by active learning about the outcome of earlier and ongoing interventions and drivers of change. In the Netherlands, such a long-term, adaptive flood risk management...journal article 2012

Freudenthal, A. (author), Van Stuijvenberg, M. (author), Van Goudoever, J.B. (author)Noise is a direct cause of health problems, long-lasting auditory problems and development problems. Preterm infants are, especially, at risk for auditory and neurocognitive development. Sound levels are very high at the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and may contribute to the frequently observed detrimental outcomes of prematurely born...journal article 2012

Araya, A.A. (author), Huurman, M. (author), Molenaar, A.A.A. (author), Houben, L.J.M. (author)In many developing countries, where resources are at premium, thin asphalt layers or chip seals are widely used to provide a durable all weather pavement surfacing. In such pavements the role of granular layers is very important in the general performance of the structure. Pavement designs in these countries are empirical in nature and rely on...journal article 2012

McClain, M.E. (author)Sustainable development in Africa is dependent on increasing use of the continent’s water resources without significantly degrading ecosystem services that are also fundamental to human wellbeing. This is particularly challenging in Africa because of high spatial and temporal variability in the availability of water resources and limited amounts...journal article 2012

Gustus, A. (author), Stillfried, G. (author), Visser, J. (author), Jörntell, H. (author), Van der Smagt, P. (author)An overview of mathematical modelling of the human hand is given. We consider hand models from a specific background: rather than studying hands for surgical or similar goals, we target at providing a set of tools with which human grasping and manipulation capabilities can be studied, and hand functionality can be described. We do this by...journal article 2012

A computer-assisted model for detection of MRI signs of Crohn’s disease activity: Future or fiction?Tielbeek, J.A.W. (author), Vos, F.M. (author), Stoker, J. (author)Magnetic resonance imaging is increasingly used for abdominal evaluation and is more and more considered as the optimal imaging technique for detection of mural inflammation in patients with Crohn’s disease. Grading the disease activity is important in daily clinical practice to monitor the medical treatment and is assessed by evaluating...journal article 2012

Yuan, C. (author), Bergsma, O. (author), Beukers, A. (author)Increase of sound transmission loss(TL) of the fuselage is vital to build a comfortable cabin environment. In this paper, to find a convenient and accurate means for predicting the fuselage TL, the fuselage is modeled as a composite cylinder, and its TL is predicted with the analytical, the statistic energy analysis (SEA) and the hybrid FE&SEA...journal article 2012

Goel, A. (author), Wortel, M.T. (author), Molenaar, D. (author), Teusink, B. (author)Performance of industrial microorganisms as cell factories is limited by the capacity to channel nutrients to desired products, of which optimal production usually requires careful manipulation of process conditions, or strain improvement. The focus in process improvement is often on understanding and manipulating the regulation of metabolism....journal article 2012

Morinière, F.D. (author), Alderliesten, R.C. (author), Tooski, M.Y. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)An experimental study was performed on the repeated low-velocity impact behaviour of GLARE. Damage evolution in the material constituents was characterised with successive number of impacts. Records were correlated with visual inspection, ultrasound C-scan and chemical etching. The stiffness of the plate varied when cumulating the number of...journal article 2012

Pommeranz, A. (author), Detweiler, C. (author), Wiggers, P. (author), Jonker, C. (author)Explicitly considering human values in the design process of socio-technical systems has become a responsibility of designers. It is, however, challenging to design for values because (1) relevant values must be identified and communicated between all stakeholders and designers and (2) stakeholders’ values differ and trade-offs must be made. We...journal article 2012

Lennartz, C. (author), Haffner, M. (author), Oxley, M. (author)Housing policies in many countries have become more market orientated as the role of governments has shifted from the direct supply and funding of non-market housing towards the role of a regulator and facilitator. Central to this development is the notion that providers of social housing have to become more competitive. Arguably, these social...journal article 2012

Cooke, R.M. (author)This article traces the development of uncertainty analysis through three generations punctuated by large methodology investments in the nuclear sector. Driven by a very high perceived legitimation burden, these investments aimed at strengthening the scientific basis of uncertainty quantification. The first generation building off the Reactor...journal article 2012

(author)Modern ICT (Information and Communication Technology) has developed a vision where the “computer” is no longer associated with the concept of a single device or a network of devices, but rather the entirety of situated services originating in a digital world, which are perceived through the physical world. It is observed that services with...journal article 2012

Tempelman, E. (author), Dwaikat, M.M.S. (author), Spitas, C. (author)Portable products can suffer critical damage due to drop impact and thus, such load cases must be taken into account in the conceptual and detailed design phases of such products. One method explored in the current study for alleviating the peak accelerations resulting from impact is to isolate fragile components from the product housing using...journal article 2012
