The bergambacht deformation prototype experiment in a broader perspective

In the nineties, the stability of the Dutch river dykes along the Rhine could not be guaranteed. Hence many people were evacuated. None of the dykes failed and the damage was mainly restricted to the evacuations costs. Several recommendations were made to anticipate the treats of the near by future. Within this framework a prototype experiment...

Development and assessment of two fixed-array microphones for use with hearing aids

Hearing-impaired listeners often have great difficulty understanding speech in situations with background noise (e.g., meetings, parties) . Conventional hearing aids offer insufficient directivity to significantly reduce background noise relative to the desired speech signal . Based on array techniques, microphone prototypes have been developed...

Turbulentiemetingen in de Waal bij Druten

In de praktijk en met name in de rivieren zijn nog maar weinig turbulentie metingen gedaan. Ofschoon wel reeds vele modelmetingen zijn verricht is zodoende nog maar weinig bekend over turbulente fluctuaties in de praktijk. Daar komt nog bij dat de schaling van turbulente grootheden van model naar praktijk nog steeds vrij onzeker is. In een model...
