Amanda Hwa De Ai, Amanda (author)This thesis examines the impact of colonialism on the urban development of Kuching, a city in Sarawak, Malaysia. Many port cities in the greater Southeast Asia region were born from their strategic location along the trade route between India and China, which attracted Western powers to establish control over these coastal entrepots and their...student report 2023

Rutten, Martijn (author)Grabs are essential in the process of unloading a bulk carrier by grabbing bulk material such as iron ore from the cargo hold. Due to varying operational conditions, the consistency and the amount of payload can vary significantly. One of the largest varying operational conditions is the occurrence of irregular bulk surfaces. Therefore, it is...master thesis 2023

Jaarsma, Ruurd (author)Echosounders are used to monitor suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) in coastal management studies and to monitor dredge plumes. Due to the dependency on sediment properties like particle size, shape and density, performance of single frequency measurements is limited when sediment properties are changing.<br/><br/>Using multi-frequency...master thesis 2023

Palin, D. (author), Kunitake, Jennie A.M.R. (author), Chang, Marina P. (author), Sutter, Stephan (author), Estroff, Lara A. (author)The production of synthetic crystals with controlled shapes and properties is an enticing prospect, yet, the production of such materials is an ongoing challenge. Here, we present a strategy for chemo-mechanically directing the growth of crystals with non-equilibrium structures using a custom-designed double-diffusion cell. We combine...journal article 2023

Chen, Bei (author), Yu, Xin (author), Dong, Fuqiang (author), Wu, Wenxiu (author), Zu, Yuanzhe (author), Ren, S. (author)High-viscosity modified asphalt (HVMA) is the most commonly applied method in drainage asphalt pavements. However, some disadvantages of hot-mix HVMA, including high energy consumption and unavoidable environmental pollution, should be improved. Therefore, warm-mix additive (WMA) was introduced. In this paper, the effects of WMA on the...journal article 2023

(author), Wang, Zhengbing (author)Many estuaries and tidal basins are strongly influenced by various human interventions (land reclamations, infrastructure development, channel deepening, dredging and disposal of sediments). Such interventions lead to a range of hydrodynamic and morphological responses (a changing channel depth, tidal amplitude and/or suspended sediment...journal article 2023

Aouissi, Khalil Bachir (author), Madani, Said (author), Hein, C.M. (author), Benacer, Hamza (author)Researchers from multiple disciplines have proposed classification systems for waterfront transformations: generational (according to the date of their construction) and functional (based on the function assigned to the land post-harbor use). However, an analysis based on the spatial features of the former port areas and their meaning for the...review 2023

(author)Conventional Molecular Dynamics (MD) models of bitumen are built by homogeneously mixing molecules in a volume without considering that the molecules in bitumen are known to exhibit phase behavior and form distinctive molecular arrangements. These are known to have a significant impact in the behavior of bitumen, and considering their...journal article 2023

(author), Schlösser, Tom P.C. (author)Introduction: To date the aetiology of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is still not completely understood. There are mechanical theories that suggest symptomatic FAI is linked to sagittal pelvic morphology and spinopelvic-femoral dynamics. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relation of sagittal pelvic morphology and orientation to...journal article 2023

The Development and Stability of Palladium-based Thin Films for Hydrogen-related Energy ApplicationsVerma, N. (author)Hydrogen has been contemplated as a desirable energy source of the future with enormous possibilities to create a carbon-neutral society. Since palladium (Pd) readily absorbs hydrogen even at low pressure and room temperature, Pd and its alloys are suitable for hydrogen production, purification, storage, gas sensors, and fuel cell catalyst....doctoral thesis 2022

Langhorst, Lars (author)To keep the Panama Canal operational year round, the water level in the canal is maintained above the minimum depth. As water is passed through the locks and into the oceans on either side, the canals main reservoir looses fresh water, and this water is then replaced by the canals secondary reservoir which is Lake Alajuela. The Lake Alajuela...master thesis 2022

Wakker, Alexander (author)Currently, morphological measurements on conventional radiographs are used to assess calcaneal fractures. The two most commonly used angles for determining the degree of depression and displacement of such a fracture are Böhler’s angle (BA) and the Critical angle of Gissane (CAG). However, conventional radiographs only provide limited amount of...master thesis 2022

Diepeveen, Bas (author)The behaviour of tidal basins has been predicted using a modelling approach in which a morphological equilibrium for an entire basin was used frequently in the past. Because tidal basins have, to an certain extend, a fractal nature, it is expected that this approach could be used with a morphological equilibrium for subbasins as well.<br/><br/...master thesis 2022
