Zgonnikov, A. (author), Beckers, N.W.M. (author), George, A. (author), Abbink, D.A. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)Understanding behavior of human drivers in interactions with automated vehicles (AV) can aid the development of future AVs. Existing investigations of such behavior have predominantly focused on situations in which an AV a priori needs to take action because the human has the right of way. However, future AVs might need to proactively manage...journal article 2024

Elgendy, R. (author), Mlecnik, E. (author)The need for energy efficient buildings has become increasingly important in climate change mitigation. Almost 75% of the building stock in Europe is energy inefficient. Residential buildings are responsible for 27% of the total energy consumption in Europe. Integrated home renovation services (IHRS) have emerged as a potential solution to...report 2024

Ale Ebrahim Dehkordi, Molood (author), Melnyk, A. (author), Ghorbani, Amineh (author), Herder, P.M. (author)Social disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic challenged existing institutional arrangements that govern the society. During that time, nation-states had to prevent the collapse of society and rapidly establish new institutions and adapt existing ones to address public health, job security, and freedom-of-movement concerns. At the same time...journal article 2024

Anand, N.R. (author), Motloung, T. (author), Quak, H.J. (author), van Duin, Ron (author)The number of activities in city logistics is growing rapidly causing an increase in emissions, and a decline in accessibility and safety in cities. Therefore, the Dutch government has introduced GreenDeal Zero-emission city logistics. The goal of this deal is to have 30-40 of the biggest municipalities in the Netherlands have zero-emission city...conference paper 2024

Sanchez Jimenez, I.J. (author), Ribo-Perez, D.G. (author), Cvetkovic, M. (author), Kochems, J. (author), Schimeczek, C. (author), De Vries, Laurens (author)Future power systems, in which generation will come almost entirely from variable Renewable Energy Sources (vRES), will be characterized by weather-driven supply and flexible demand. In a simulation of the future Dutch power system, we analyze whether there are sufficient incentives for market-driven investors to provide a sufficient level of...journal article 2024

(author)Inflicted shaking trauma can cause injury in infants, but exact injury mechanisms remain unclear. Controversy exists, particularly in courts, whether additional causes such as impact are required to produce injuries found in cases of (suspected) shaking. Publication rates of studies on animal and biomechanical models of inflicted head injury...review 2024

Ilardi, Davide (author), Kalikatzarakis, Miltiadis (author), Oneto, Luca (author), Collu, Maurizio (author), Coraddu, A. (author)Due to increasing environmental concerns and global energy demand, the development of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWTs) is on the rise. FOWTs offer a promising solution to expand wind farm deployment into deeper waters with abundant wind resources. However, their harsh operating conditions and lower maturity level compared to fixed...journal article 2024

Götz, Paula (author), Auping, Willem L. (author), Hinrichs-Krapels, S. (author)Background: Health systems worldwide struggled to obtain sufficient personal protective equipment (PPE) and ventilators during the COVID-19 pandemic due to global supply chain disruptions. Our study’s aim was to create a proof-of-concept model that would simulate the effects of supply strategies under various scenarios, to ultimately help...journal article 2024

Li, Qiang (author), Wang, Xinquan (author), Gavin, Kenneth (author), Jiang, Shengxiang (author), Diao, Hongguo (author), Wang, Kangyu (author)Extensive studies have been performed on the effectiveness of scour protection against scour erosion progression. But there is little research to date evaluating the effect of scour protection on vertical resistance behaviour of monopile foundations. This paper investigates the influence of scour protection on the vertical loading behaviour of...journal article 2024

Li, Qiang (author), Wang, Xinquan (author), Gavin, Kenneth (author), Jiang, Shengxiang (author), Diao, Hongguo (author), Wang, Mingyuan (author), Wang, Kangyu (author)Scour leads to the loss of soil around monopile foundations for offshore wind turbines, which affects their structural safety. In this paper, the effect of scour on the lateral behaviour of monopiles was extensively investigated using finite element analysis, and calibration and comparison were undertaken using centrifuge tests. Piles with three...journal article 2024

Chakraborty, S.S. (author), Krishna, Shankara Narayanan (author), Mathur, Umang (author), Pavlogiannis, Andreas (author)Weak-memory models are standard formal specifications of concurrency across hardware, programming languages, and distributed systems. A fundamental computational problem is consistency testing: is the observed execution of a concurrent program in alignment with the specification of the underlying system? The problem has been studied...journal article 2024

Siebinga, O. (author), Zgonnikov, A. (author), Abbink, D.A. (author)Traffic interactions between merging and highway vehicles are a major topic of research, yielding many empirical studies and models of driver behaviour. Most of these studies on merging use naturalistic data. Although this provides insight into human gap acceptance and traffic flow effects, it obscures the operational inputs of interacting...journal article 2024

(author)Wheel-rail high-frequency interaction is closely related to the formation of railway short-wave defects. Finite element (FE) method has been widely used to simulate wheel-rail dynamic systems, but its validity in modelling high-frequency interaction has not been fully demonstrated in three dimensions (3D). This work aims at comprehensively...journal article 2024

Klein, R.B. (author), Sanderse, B. (author)A novel hyper-reduction method is proposed that conserves kinetic energy and momentum for reduced order models of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The main advantage of conservation of kinetic energy is that it endows the hyper-reduced order model (hROM) with a nonlinear stability property. The new method poses the discrete...journal article 2024
