Wang, Yixia (author), Lin, Shu (author), Wang, Yibing (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author), Xu, Jungang (author)Currently, with the development of driving technologies, driverless vehicles gradually are becoming more and more available. Therefore, there would be a long period of time during which self-driving vehicles and human-driven vehicles coexist. However, for a mixed platoon, it is hard to control the formation due to the existence of the manual...journal article 2023

Vermani, Sanjay (author)Industrial processes are estimated to be responsible for about 20 % of the total greenhouse gas emissions within the European Union (EU). The majority of the industrial energy demand is related to the thermal energy required for process heating. Thus, there is a need to make radical changes to the industrial heating supply to achieve net-zero...master thesis 2022

Mirzaie Yegane, M. (author), Boukany, P. (author), Zitha, P.L.J. (author)Due to increased energy demand, it is vital to enhance the recovery from existing oilfields. Polymer flooding is the most frequently used chemical enhanced oil recovery (cEOR) method in field applications that increases the oil sweep and displacement efficiencies. In recent years, there has been growing interest to assess the use of polymer...journal article 2022

Wikkerink, D.P. (author), Mor, A. R. (author), Polinder, H. (author), Ross, Robert (author)Detection of the magnetic signature of ships can be avoided by using a degaussing system; a set of on-board copper coils that compensates for the magnetic signature. High temperature superconductors (HTS) are currently investigated as a replacement for copper degaussing coils. By using HTS, we have to deal with higher currents and therefore...journal article 2022

Jones, S.A. (author), Bos, Robert (author), Lastovka, Vaclav (author), Farajzadeh, R. (author), Riyami, Mohammed (author)The efficiency of oil processes depends on the product of volumetric sweep and microscopic sweep. In oil recovery by steam injection the microscopic sweep is generally good; however, obtaining a good volumetric sweep can be challenging. This is caused by low density and viscosity of the injected steam combined with the reservoir heterogeneity...conference paper 2022

França de Mendonça Filho, F. (author), Romero Rodriguez, C. (author), Schlangen, E. (author), Copuroglu, Oguzhan (author)Industries such as metal, ceramics and petrochemicals suffer from high temperature spills. Such events exert a unique form of loading in concrete structures that cannot be accurately simulated by heating of samples in an oven. Calcium aluminate cement (CAC) based concrete is the industry standard for such environment, and while much is known...journal article 2022
