Immersive technologies are redefining user interactions in the evolving digital landscape, promising deeper and almost physical digital experiences (Alpers et al., 2020). Concurrently, the mobility world is undergoing a paradigm shift, with an emphasis on advanced autonomous solutions. Such autonomy enables users to reclaim and repurpose their...

The National Library of the Netherlands boasts an extensive collection of Pop-up books. However, due to their age, some of these Pop-up books have deteriorated over time, making it impossible to display them to the public. Nonetheless, emerging VR/AR technologies offer a solution to this issue. By recreating these Pop-up books within the VR/AR...

The Noordtunnel is an immersed tunnel open to roadway service since 1990 in The Netherlands. Over the past thirty years of its operation time, a significant differential settlement behaviour has been observed, and this ongoing settlement potentially imposes safety concerns to the tunnel, such as joint leakage. However, the underlying factor...

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) offers numerous benefits, notably the ability to study flows that are challenging or costly to investigate using experiments. A central challenge in CFD lies in simulating fluid flow around complex geometries. Additionally, the governing equations follow conservation laws. This thesis aims to establish the...

Wall-modeled large eddy simulations (WMLES) are becoming an increasingly viable tool to study complex unsteady turbulent flows. Conventional wall models applied in these simulations are however not applicable to laminar boundary layers. While these encompass only a tiny fraction of the total surface area, erroneous predictions in this region of...

In this thesis new dielectric metasurfaces in immersion were explored with a periodic distribution of unit cells with multiple silicon cylinder structures on a reflective gold slab with a fused quartz spacer in between. These new metasurfaces were designed with 60 nm and 130 nm gaps in order to improve manufacturability and enable larger...

Virtual Reality allows for the ultimate immersion in environments not naturally encountered. Still, hyperbolic environments are extremely difficult to get used to. This paper explores whether immersion in virtual hyperbolic environments can be enhanced by introducing a procedurally generated world. We propose a Wave Function Collapse (WFC)...

Monitoring the deformations of immersed tunnels is important during the entire tunnel service life to assess the structural integrity of the tunnel. Conventional joint deformation monitoring is based on manual levelling measurements and normally occurs only at multi-year intervals, which does not allow to capture short term deformation...

This paper presents an immersed, isogeometric finite element framework to predict the response of multi-material, multi-physics problems with complex geometries using locally refined discretizations. To circumvent the need to generate conformal meshes, this work uses an extended finite element method (XFEM) to discretize the governing...

Immersive reality technologies, such as Virtual and Augmented Reality, have ushered a new era of user-centric systems, in which every aspect of the coding-delivery-rendering chain is tailored to the interaction of the users. Understanding the actual interactivity and behaviour of the users is still an open challenge and a key step to enabling...

Virtual reality (VR) is the experience in a simulated interactive virtual space. It provides synthetic sensory feedback to users' actions that can physically and mentally immerse the users. Social VR is one type of VR system that allows multiple users to join a collaborative virtual environment and communicate with each other, usually by...

A conservative cut-cell immersed boundary (IB) method including gas-surface interactions (GSI) for the simulation of atmospheric entry flows under thermochemical nonequilibrium (TCNE) conditions is presented. The performance<br/>of the method is demonstrated for three test cases: a compression ramp, a cylinder, and a plasma wind tunnel ablator...

Seasonal joint deformations within an immersed tunnel are important indicators to assess structural behavior and therefore should be monitored in detail. In this study, distributed optical fiber sensors (DOFS) are applied to precisely measure the seasonal joint deformations in an immersed tunnel for the first time. Measurements over a one...

In this study, the impacts of tap water immersion on the pore solution, phase assemblages, gel chemistry and structure, and pore structure of alkali-activated slag (AAS) pastes were studied. AAS degrades under such condition and the potential mechanisms can be concluded as lower reaction rates, gel decomposition and carbonation. The leaching...

Many immersed tunnels have already reached or are about to reach the halfway point of their intended lifespan of 100 years. Around this time, several structural problems were noticed during inspection which have led to performance deterioration and durability issues of the tunnel. Often large- scale maintenance was required to meet the design...

The 1st Heinenoordtunnel is an immersed tube which has been open for service in the Netherlands since 1969. Over the past 50 years, a large and increasing settlement has been measured along the tunnel alignment. The greatest value of settlement (65 mm) occurs in tunnel element 1 from 1978 to 2018. The maximum differential settlement has reached...

The Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) is an appealing framework to apply to unsteady, incompressible, low Reynolds number flow due to its simplicity and potential for massive parallelisation. The immersed boundary method is often used in conjunction with the LBM to simulate flow around curved, moving boundaries in the interior of the fluid domain....

People are reluctant to talk about death. However, death is going to happen, so it is important to discuss the topic while people still can. Discussing death on a more regular basis is beneficial for all people involved. End-of-life conversations can be held to discuss wishes and decisions concerning death and dying. However young adults do not...
