(author)Atomically engineered artificial lattices are a useful tool for simulating complex quantum phenomena, but have so far been limited to the study of Hamiltonians where electron-electron interactions do not play a role. However, it is precisely the regime in which these interactions do matter where computational times lend simulations a critical...journal article 2022

Yaghoubi Nasrabadi, V. (author), Setayeshnasab, Hamed (author), Mosaddegh, Peiman (author), Kadkhodaei, Mahmoud (author)IntraOcular Pressure (IOP) is one of the most informative factors for monitoring the eye-health. This is usually measured by tonometers. However, the outputs of the tonometers depend on the physical and geometrical properties of the cornea. Therefore, the common practice is to develop a numerical model to generate some correction factors. The...journal article 2022

Kulkarni, Devendra (author)The Medium Voltage (MV) network in the Netherlands is almost entirely composed of underground cables. The failure statistics show that the interruptions in the medium voltage have a high contribution in the mean outage time per year per customer. The interruptions in the medium voltage grid are often caused by failure of circuit components...master thesis 2020

Korevaar, A. (author)In this study an analysis of the efficacy of using satellite data, in the form of InSAR measurements, as an extension of the volcanic monitoring network on Saba and St. Eustatius is performed. For this research, data from three different satellites that operate at three different wavelengths are available: ALOS-2 (L-band SAR), Sentinel-1 (C-band...master thesis 2020

Ziar, H. (author), Mishra, Sandeep (author), Isabella, O. (author), Zeman, M. (author)This paper suggests a measurable parameter, the so-called Shading Tolerability (ST), to be added on PV modules datasheet. Using this parameter, PV modules can be compared and classified regarding the ability to oppose shading effects. The parameter is extracted based on mathematical and probability analysis, then measured using a Large Area...conference paper 2018

Bakx, G.C.H. (author)There is still much debate in the safety literature about how to deal with the complexi- ties and dynamics of large-scale socio-technological systems especially. How, for in- stance, comes safety about in ‘high-tech’ complex systems? Also, how should assess- ments of technological (or artefactual) safety be performed in these kinds of systems?...doctoral thesis 2016
