Pletzer, Johannes (author)At speeds roughly between five and ten thousand km/h, hypersonic aircraft offer the promise of an extremely fast means of transport. Growing concerns about climate warming, however, direct attention to sustainability. This thesis focuses on atmospheric composition and radiation changes by considering a range of individual hypersonic aircraft...doctoral thesis 2024

Domingos de Azevedo Quadros, F. (author)Global passenger air traffic has doubled in the 13 years prior to 2019, and is expected to double again over the next 20 years or so. Growing demand for aviation is met by a corresponding increase in jet fuel being burned by aircraft, releasing multiple pollutants into the atmosphere. Besides disturbing the Earth’s radiative balance, these...doctoral thesis 2024

Gill, E.K.A. (author), Akos, D. M. (author)This paper proposes a novel concept of using highly efficient Snapshot Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) receivers to provide precise position fixes of single or multiple satellites in Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) to improve upper atmospheric modeling and thus contribute to superior space situational awareness (SSA). While tracking of LEO...journal article 2024

Başkaya, A.O. (author), Capriati, Michele (author), Turchi, Alessandro (author), Magin, Thierry (author), Hickel, S. (author)The efficacy of immersed boundary (IB) methods with adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) techniques is assessed in the context of atmospheric entry applications, including effects of chemical nonequilibrium (CNE) and gas–surface interactions (GSI). We scrutinize a conservative cut-cell IB method and two non-conservative IB methods, comparing their...journal article 2024

Allam, Mona (author), Meng, Qingyan (author), Elhag, Mohamed (author), Giardino, Claudia (author), Ghirardi, Nicola (author), Su, Yi (author), Al-Hababi, Mohammed A.M. (author), Menenti, M. (author)Around 90% of the oceanic and inland waters’ reflectance registered in satellite detectors comes from the atmospheric contribution. Hence the water-leaving radiances in the Near-InfraRed (NIR) region are above the zero value over inland waters because of sediments and dissolved organic particles, this radiance cannot be ignored. To accurately...journal article 2024

(author)Non-thermal plasmas are used in various applications to inactivate biological agents or biomolecules. A complex cocktail of reactive species, (vacuum) UV radiation and in some cases exposure to an electric field together cause the detrimental effects. In contrast to this disruptive property of technical plasmas, we have shown previously that...journal article 2023

Roosenbrand, E.J. (author), Sun, Junzi (author), Hoekstra, J.M. (author)Contrails contribute to global warming by trapping outgoing terrestrial radiation, exerting an immediate warming influence on the climate. The climatic impact of contrails is potentially comparable to that of aviation’s carbon emissions. This underlines the importance of minimizing contrail formation to mitigate the climate effects of aviation,...conference paper 2023

Vardon, P.J. (author), Aguilar Lopez, J.P. (author), Dieudonné, A.A.M. (author)Soil-atmosphere interaction occurs frequently in most geotechnical situations. By including it in analyses, a high computational load can occur, and analyses are made more complex. This paper explores the key processes and demonstrates the impact and advantages of quantifying soil-atmosphere interactions. Possibilities of utilising the soil...conference paper 2023

Mahapatra, G. (author), Abiad, F. (author), Rossi, L. (author), Stam, D.M. (author)Context. Terrestrial-type exoplanets in or near stellar habitable zones appear to be ubiquitous. It is, however, unknown which of these planets have temperate, Earth-like climates or for example, extreme Venus-like climates. Aims. Technical tools to distinguish different kinds of terrestrial-type planets are crucial for determining whether a...journal article 2023

Sturm, Patrick Obin (author), Manders, Astrid (author), Janssen, Ruud (author), Segers, Arjo (author), Wexler, Anthony S. (author), Lin, H.X. (author)The chemical transport model LOTOS-EUROS uses a volatility basis set (VBS) approach to represent the formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) in the atmosphere. Inclusion of the VBS approximately doubles the dimensionality of LOTOS-EUROS and slows computation of the advection operator by a factor of two. This complexity limits SOA...journal article 2023
