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

Singh, A. (author), Romero Herrera, N.A. (author)In this paper, we report on an interactive visualization that served multiple purposes and diverse roles in a research-through-design (RtD) study. The visualization is part of the study on the sociocultural factors that shape energy exchanges between households. It showcases an ethnographic data combined with quantitative logs collected for<br/...conference paper 2019

Jacobsen, Niels G. (author), Bakker, Wout (author), Uijttewaal, W.S.J. (author), Uittenbogaard, Rob (author)The work presents an experimental investigation into the motion of and hydrodynamic forces along a single flexible stem in regular waves. The experiment covers a large range in relevant non-dimensional parameters: the drag-to-stiffness ratio, the inertia-to-stiffness ratio, the Keulegan-Carpenter number and the Reynolds number. The two first...journal article 2019

Lupetti, M.L. (author), Bendor, R. (author), Giaccardi, Elisa (author)This paper suggests robot citizenship as a design perspective for attending to the sociality of human robot interactions (HRI) in the near future. First, we review current positions regarding robot citizenship, which we summarise as: human analogy, nonhuman analogy and socio-relationality. Based on this review, we then suggest an understanding...conference paper 2019

Lamon, Edoardo (author), De Franco, Alessandro (author), Peternel, L. (author), Ajoudani, Arash (author)The deployment of industrial robotic cells based on lean manufacturing principles enables the development of fast-reconfigurable assembly lines in which human and robotic agents collaborate to achieve a shared task. To ensure the effective coordination of the shared effort, each task must be decomposed into a sequence of atomic actions that can...journal article 2019

Kreyenschulte, Moritz (author), Schiirenkamp, David (author), Kuhling, Volker (author), Brühl, M. (author), Goseberg, Nils (author), Schiittrumpf, Holger (author)Many sea dikes along the coast of the North Sea are protected against wave loading and currents by riprap revetments that are grouted with mortar. The mortar bonds the individual stones of the top layer, thereby forming a coherent structure that is able to withstand normal forces and shear forces as well as momentums, thus leading to a planar...journal article 2019

Teruna, C. (author), Ragni, D. (author), Avallone, F. (author), Casalino, D. (author)This manuscript presents a rod-linear cascade model for emulating rotor-stator interaction noise. The model is intended as a test platform for studying noise mitigation techniques for a turbofan fan stage, while it also extends the classical rod-airfoil configuration by considering a row of blades based on realistic geometrical details. The...journal article 2019

Two artistic EEG KISS orchestrations, both multi-modal, multi-brain BCIs, are shown to create novel shared experiences of social touch in public space. These orchestrations purposefully disrupt and...book chapter 2019

Vroon, Jered (author), Englebienne, Gwenn (author), Evers, Vanessa (author)What if a robot could detect when you think it got too close to you during its approach? This would allow it to correct or compensate for its social ‘mistake’. It would also allow for a responsive approach, where that robot would reactively find suitable approach behavior through and during the interaction. We investigated if it is possible to...conference paper 2019

Fu, W. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Haptic displays can greatly facilitate manual control tasks. Their capacity of allowing the operator to perceive the desired dynamics is an important design parameter. However, attempts to evaluate haptic displays on the basis of what dynamics humans actually perceive are scarce. This paper proposes a two-step framework which incorporates the...journal article 2019
