Poliakov, Mykyta (author)Fibre Metal Laminates (FMLs) have been widely utilised in aircraft structures for their specific strength, durability and damage tolerance. Most aircraft structures, due to their size, require joining, and FMLs allow for a special type of joint called the splice, a unique but a lesser known joint.<br/><br/>The bulk of research into the splice...master thesis 2023

Landzaat, Tom (author)Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) allows aircraft to broadcast their own position, speed, altitude, and other information to ground stations and other nearby aircraft. This information is then used by air traffic control for situational awareness, and collision avoidance. ADS-B spoofing is possible due to the lack of...master thesis 2023

van Opstal, Doris (author)Interest in driving simulators has risen due to new technologies that better resemble real-world driving and the cost reduction of driving simulator development. In recent years, safety researchers commonly use driving simulators to examine complex driving behaviors in a controlled and safe environment. However, the question remains whether or...master thesis 2023

Trotta, Luca (author)High-frequency combustion instabilities represent the main technical risk faced by design engineers when developing new chemical rocket propulsion systems. Such instabilities are driven by the coupling between the flames’ heat release rate and the combustion chamber’s acoustic field. As such, they can only be assessed during detailed design...master thesis 2023

Lovato, S. (author)The increasing size of today's ships is a major concern for navigation in confined waters. In order to ensure safe manoeuvres, port authorities prescribe, among others, a minimum under-keel clearance that must be maintained by the ships during navigation. However, the seabed of ports situated at the estuaries or along rivers is often covered by...doctoral thesis 2023

Meijer, Iris (author)Abstract—Background: Vacuum extraction is a way to prevent unnecessary maternal deaths, by using a vacuum extractor to help deliver the baby in the second stage of labour. Vacuum extraction is still little-used in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) compared to high-income countries, due to the lack of sufficient devices on the market that...master thesis 2023

Perin, G. (author), Wu, L. (author), Picek, S. (author)The adoption of deep neural networks for profiling side-channel attacks opened new perspectives for leakage detection. Recent publications showed that cryptographic implementations featuring different countermeasures could be broken without feature selection or trace preprocessing. This success comes with a high price: an extensive...journal article 2023

Hobeika, N. (author), Garcia Sanchez, C. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)The corona pandemic accelerated a lot of studies about aerosol dispersion and different aerosol-generating tasks ranging in intensity from sneezing to breathing. Both measurements and numerical simulations were used to understand the behaviour of aerosols. For numerical simulations, Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) simulations were used;...conference paper 2023

Fransen, M.P. (author), Langelaar, Matthijs (author), Schott, D.L. (author)In design optimization of bulk handling equipment (BHE) we generally focus on the mean performance of the equipment. However, granular materials behave stochastic due to irregularities in particle shape and size which leads to stochastic performance of the equipment. To include the stochastic performance we propose robust metamodel-based...journal article 2023

Devia Pinzon, C.A. (author), Giordano, G. (author)We propose an agent-based opinion formation model characterised by a two-fold novelty. First, we realistically assume that each agent cannot measure the opinion of its neighbours about a given statement with infinite resolution and accuracy, and hence it can only perceive the opinion of others as agreeing much more, or more, or comparably, or...journal article 2023

(author), Petr, Jan (author)Preoperative clinical MRI protocols for gliomas, brain tumors with dismal outcomes due to their infiltrative properties, still rely on conventional structural MRI, which does not deliver information on tumor genotype and is limited in the delineation of diffuse gliomas.

Bakker, A.M.R. (author), Busnach, Tycho (author), Mooyaart, L.F. (author), Van Gijzen, L. (author)The efficacy of risk models and risk analyses critically hinges on sufficient model evaluation. Nevertheless, the usefulness for the intended purpose is rarely systematically assessed. Poor or even lacking model evaluation of the applied risk models and analyses also troubles the asset management of storm surge barriers in the Netherlands. In...conference paper 2023

Zwart, Robert H. (author), Bogaard, Jordi (author), Kana, A.A. (author)Trim optimization improves the energy efficiency of ships, thus reducing operational costs and emissions; however, trim tables are only available for a limited number of ships. There is thus a desire to develop additional, more accurate trim tables without the need for expensive model testing. The objective of this research was to develop a...journal article 2023

Thoring, K.C. (author), Mueller, Roland M. (author), Lecuna, Alejandro (author), Badke-Schaub, P.G. (author)Practitioners design artifacts of different kinds. Researchers and practitioners both create methods for designing such artifacts. The question arises whether those methods are actually valid and useful. In this conceptual paper, we argue that there is a need for “method corroboration”-the deliberate and reflected use and possible validation...conference paper 2023
