Chan, Ji Fan (author)Geopolymer concrete, a relatively new building material has been suggested as an alternative to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) based concretes for within the building sector, due to it having a relatively low CO2 emission during production. An issue with geopolymer concrete however, is that high amounts of early age creep, shrinkage and decrease...master thesis 2023

Bedon, Chiara (author), Louter, P.C. (author)Purpose: Glass material is largely used for load-bearing components in buildings. For this reason, standardized calculation methods can be used in support of safe structural design in common loading and boundary conditions. Differing from earlier literature efforts, the present study elaborates on the load-bearing capacity, failure time and...journal article 2023

Yang, Haocheng (author)Tactile internet enables communication in a new layer of immersion, touch. It has the potential to transform the landscape of digital communication. However, the achievable scale of tactile internet is severely limited by its 1 ms round-trip latency. We propose a workaround for the latency through tactile simulation, which can bypass the...bachelor thesis 2022

Bruinenberg, Ingmar (author)Composite structures are used more frequently in newly designed aircrafts. This results in new difficulties compared to conventional metals during operational life. Especially, the material properties of two different materials can cause side effects, which are unwanted in a structure, for example thermal stresses. Many reports have been written...master thesis 2022

Kurucz, Daniel (author)Introduction: Atherosclerosis is characterised by the buildup of plaque within the arterial wall and it is often the underlying cause effect of deaths related to cardiovascular diseases. Thin cap fibroatheromas are plaques with a high risk of causing clinical events due to rupture and espousal of thrombogenic components to the bloodstream. The...master thesis 2022

Tankova, T. (author), Andrade, David (author), Branco, Ricardo (author), Zhu, Carlos (author), Rodrigues, Dulce (author), Simões da Silva, Luís (author)This paper analyses the microstructural and mechanical properties of carbon steel coupons produced by CMT-WAAM. The strategy adopted in the fabrication of the test specimens using a robotised facility is explained. Then, the results of the mechanical characterization performed using as-built and machined samples, extracted in several...journal article 2022

van Zuijlen, M.J.P. (author)The world around us is filled with materials. Our ability of visual material perception informs us how to navigate and interact with our environment. It tells us, for example, whether food is fresh, if a chair is strong enough to sit on, how much force to use to pick up a glass, etc. Painters have studied how to depict the world and the...doctoral thesis 2021

Alkadri, M.F. (author)As part of the passive design strategy, the development of computational solar envelopes plays a major role to construct a cooperative environmental performance exchange between new buildings and their local contexts. However, the state-of-the-art computational solar envelopes pose a great challenge in understanding site characteristics from a...doctoral thesis 2021

Abdul Madhar, S. (author), Mor, A. R. (author), Mraz, Petr (author), Ross, Robert (author)This paper presents the investigation on surface discharge behavior of various dielectric samples under DC. It sequentially develops the knowledge base for the study and analysis of the partial discharge (PD) defect with the goal of PD defect identification under DC. In order to facilitate this, the material properties of the dielectric are...journal article 2021

Kotteman, Geerte (author)Additive manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, is emerging as a technology for different applications made of steel. It is expected that in the coming years the construction industry will benefit from the free and lightweight forms that can be fabricated and the possible material savings. A few experimental results of 3D printed stainless steel...master thesis 2020

Alkadri, M.F. (author), De Luca, Francesco (author), Turrin, M. (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author)As a passive design strategy, solar envelopes play a significant role in determining building mass based on desirable sun access during a predefined period. Nowadays, advancements in the area of computational tools permit designers to develop new methods for establishing solar envelopes. However, current approaches lack an understanding of the...journal article 2020

(author)Zeolite 13X and 5A supported Ni catalysts were synthesized for CO<sub>2</sub> methanation using the evaporation impregnation method. The influence of using different Ni precursors (nitrate, citrate, and acetate) as well as calcination temperatures on the catalyst properties and performance were investigated.

Chhabra, Arjun (author)Suzlon's wind turbine blades are connected to the pitch bearing and hence the hub using a T-Bolt (Ikea) connection. The merits of this bolted connection and the experience in its usage has led to its continuous use in the wind industry. Engineers at Suzlon believe that this connection can be optimized by improving the net-tension strength and...master thesis 2019

van den Berg, Ronald (author)The majority of cardiovascular clinical events, which are the main causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide, are caused by atherosclerotic plaque rupture. This biomechanical event occurs when the local plaque stresses exceed its strength. The plaque stresses can be assessed by computational models to predict these events. Current approaches...master thesis 2019

Lantsoght, E.O.L. (author), van der Veen, C. (author), De Boer, Ane (author), van der Ham, Herbert (author)In 1997, the Second Stichtse Bridge was built in the Netherlands using the balanced cantilever method. The use of high-strength concrete was proposed. At that time, the long-term behaviour of this material was not known, and no code provisions were applicable. Therefore, it was proposed to monitor the material behaviour and the deflections of...journal article 2018
