Heikoop, D.D. (author), Nuñez Velasco, J.P. (author), Boersma, A.M. (author), Bjørnskau, Torkel (author), Hagenzieker, Marjan (author)Automated driving systems promise a tremendous amount of benefits. Especially when applied in the domain of public transport, economic and passenger advantages are thought to be manifold. As technology rapidly advances, and projects involving automated buses appear throughout the world, investigating how its users and surrounding road traffic...book chapter 2020

Wang, H. (author)Railway catenary is the main infrastructure that delivers electric power for train operation. It is a structure commonly constructed along the railway line with contact wires suspended above the track. One or multiple pantographs mounted on the roof of a moving train collects electric current from the catenary through the sliding contact with a...doctoral thesis 2019

Saad, E. (author), Broekens, D.J. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Hindriks, K.V. (author)This paper presents the design and evaluation of human-like welcoming behaviors for a humanoid robot to draw the attention of passersby by following a three-step model: (1) selecting a target (person) to engage, (2) executing behaviors to draw the target's attention, and (3) monitoring the attentive response. A computer vision algorithm was...conference paper 2019

Alderliesten, R.C. (author)With the introduction of fibre metal laminates (FMLs) as a (fatigue) damage tolerant material concept in aeronautics, an interesting field emerged where fatigue damage interaction plays a dominant role. The hybrid concept effectively demands evaluating fatigue damage growth based on fracture phenomena typical for both metals and fibre...journal article 2019

Symmetric interacting particle systems: Self-duality and hydrodynamics in dynamic random environmentSau, F. (author)In this thesis, we study scaling and detailed properties of a class of conservative interacting particle systems. In particular, in the first part we derive the hydrodynamic equation for the symmetric exclusion process in presence of dynamic random environment. The second part of the thesis focuses on a detailed property of conservative particle...doctoral thesis 2019

Groenevelt, W.G.M. (author), Giardina', C. (author), Redig, F.H.J. (author), Carinci, G. (author)We study self-duality for interacting particle systems, where the particles move as continuous time random walkers having either exclusion interaction or inclusion interaction. We show that orthogonal self-dualities arise from unitary symmetries of the Markov generator. For these symmetries we provide two equivalent expressions that are related...journal article 2019

Steinlechner, Harald (author), Rainer, Bernhard (author), Schwarzler, M. (author), Haaser, Georg (author), Szabo, Attila (author), Maierhofer, Stefan (author), Wimmer, Michael (author)In this work, we propose an interaction-driven approach streamlined to support and improve a wide range of real-time 2D interaction metaphors for arbitrarily large pointclouds based on detected primitive shapes. Rather than performing shape detection as a costly pre-processing step on the entire point cloud at once, a user-controlled...conference paper 2019

Qu, Y. (author)Vortex-induced vibration (VIV) is awell-known phenomenon for civil and offshore structures. Currently, the prediction of this type of vibration in practice currently mainly relies on the force-decomposition method. However, the limitations of this method have restricted the applicability of the method, and alternative models are therefore needed...doctoral thesis 2019

Maljaars, P.J. (author)Higher efficiencies, higher cavitation inception speeds and reduced acoustic signature are claimed benefits of flexible composite propellers. Analysing the hydrodynamic performance of these flexible propellers, implies that a coupled fluid-structure interaction (FSI) computation has to be performed. An FSI coupling can be monolithic, which means...doctoral thesis 2019

Armanini, S.F. (author), Caetano, J. V. (author), de Visser, C.C. (author), Pavel, M.D. (author), de Croon, G.C.H.E. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Despite significant interest in tailless flapping-wing micro aerial vehicle designs, tailed configurations are often favoured, as they offer many benefits, such as static stability and a simpler control strategy, separating wing and tail control. However, the tail aerodynamics are highly complex due to the interaction between the unsteady...journal article 2019

van Vlijmen, Bruis (author), Goudswaard, Reinier (author), Boere, Remco (author), Schneider, Thomas (author), Polinder, H. (author), Lavidas, G. (author)It is expected that several identical Point Absorber Wave Energy Converters (PAWECs) will be arranged in arrays to form a Wave Energy Farm. One of the key challenges in designing such a WEC array is their spatial configuration, as the WECs in the farm interact hydrodynamically with each other. This study focuses on different potential PAWEC...conference paper 2019
