Han, Li (author), Wang, Yan (author), Ao, Yibin (author), Ding, Xuan (author), Li, Mingyang (author), Wang, T. (author)Introduction: Rural roads and built environment in China have been developed enormously, but it is not clear whether these roads fulfill the needs of school children as they need to travel long to school every day.<br/><br/>Objective: It is crucial to understand the influencing factors of their travel mode choices to better design future country...journal article 2022

Chrysochoidis-Antsos, N. (author), van Bussel, G.J.W. (author), Bozelie, Jan (author), Mertens, Sander M. (author), van Wijk, A.J.M. (author)Micro wind turbines can be structurally integrated on top of the solid base of noise barriers near highways. A number of performance factors were assessed with holistic experiments in wind tunnel and in the field. The wind turbines underperformed when exposed in yawed flow conditions. The theoretical cosθ theories for yaw misalignment did not...journal article 2021

Janssen, M.F.W.H.A. (author), Hartog, M.W. (author), Matheus, R. (author), Ding, Aaron Yi (author), Kuk, George (author)Computational artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms are increasingly used to support decision making by governments. Yet algorithms often remain opaque to the decision makers and devoid of clear explanations for the decisions made. In this study, we used an experimental approach to compare decision making in three situations: humans making...journal article 2020

Truong, S.H. (author), Li, Un (author), Uijttewaal, W.S.J. (author)Transverse exchange processes of mass and momentum in floodplain regions of channels are of primary importance regarding the sediment transport and riverbank stability. The presence of large horizontal coherent structures (LHCSs) at the interface of the floodplain and main channel regions may contribute up to 90% the amount of transverse...conference paper 2020

Mäs, Michael (author), Helbing, D. (author)Many sociological theories make critically different macropredictions when their microassumptions are implemented stochastically rather than deterministically. Deviations from individuals’ behavioral patterns described by microtheories can spark cascades that change macrooutcomes, even when deviations are rare and random. With two experiments...journal article 2020

Sodja, J. (author), Martinez, M.J. (author), Simpson, John C. (author), De Breuker, R. (author)This article presents an experimental evaluation of a morphing leading edge demonstrator by investigating its morphed shape, the level of induced strains in the airfoil skin, the actuation force, and the morphing mechanism’s capability to lock and transfer the applied loads. In addition, a finite element model of the demonstrator is assembled...journal article 2019

Scaling Effective Learning Strategies: Retrieval Practice and Long-Term Knowledge Retention in MOOCsDavis, D.J. (author), Kizilcec, René F. (author), Hauff, C. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)Large-scale online learning environments such as MOOCs provide an opportunity to evaluate the efficacy of learning strategies in an informal learning context with a diverse learner population. Here, we evaluate the extent to which retrieval practice — recognized as one of the most effective learning strategies — facilitates long-term knowledge...journal article 2018

Quaeghebeur, Erik (author), Wesseling, C. (author), Beauxis-Aussalet, E. (author), Piovesan, T. (author), Sterkenburg, T. (author)We present an interface for eliciting sets of acceptable gambles on a three-outcome possibility space, discuss an experiment conducted for testing this interface, and present the results of this experiment. Sets of acceptable gambles form a representation for imprecise probabilities that is close to human behavior and eliciting them directly may...journal article 2017

Naeimi, M. (author), Li, Z. (author), Petrov, R.H. (author), Sietsma, J. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author)A new downscale test rig is developed for investigating the contact between the wheel and rail under impact-like loading conditions. This paper presents the development process of the setup, including review and synthesis of the potential experimental techniques, followed by scalability, mechanical and operational analysis of the new setup. The...journal article 2017

Van de Poel, I.R. (author)How are we to appraise new technological developments that may bring revolutionary social changes? Currently this is often done by trying to predict or anticipate social consequences and to use these as a basis for moral and regulatory appraisal. Such an approach can, however, not deal with the uncertainties and unknowns that are inherent in...journal article 2015

Werter, N.P.M. (author), Sodja, J. (author), De Breuker, R. (author)The design methodology and testing of an aeroelastically tailored wing subjected to manoeuvre loads is presented in this paper. The wing is designed using an aeroelastic analysis tool that is composed of a closely coupled nonlinear beam model and a vortex lattice aerodynamic model. The globally convergent method of moving asymptotes is used to...conference paper 2015

Ensink, S.W.H. (author), Van der Veen, C. (author), De Boer, A. (author)Experimental results of four shear tests on two large prestressed concrete beams are compared to nonlinear analysis and design code calculations. The beams have a length of 12 m and a depth of 1.3 m and are reinforced with stirrups and pre-tensioning. The four tests consist of a single point load at a distance of 2.7d from the support. A priori...conference paper 2015

D'Acunto, L. (author), Redi, J.A. (author), Niamut, O.A. (author)This paper reports on the evaluation of the concept of interactive camera-based coaching and training (iCaCoT), which focuses on using interactive video navigation for coaching and training purposes. The iCaCoT concept leverages tiled streaming technology, which allows users to navigate freely through high-resolution video feeds while minimising...conference paper 2015

(author)Debriefing is an overlooked topic in the gaming simulation literature, especially in the context of gaming for applied research and design. Building upon existing frameworks, mostly in the fields of policy and educational games, and linking the design of the debriefing with the intricacies of innovation in complex networked infrastructures, we...conference paper 2014

Fan, H. (author)Natural or hydraulic fractures are of major importance for the productivity of hydrocarbon reservoirs. Besides fracture detection, also the aperture and extension of the fractures are essential for a correct reservoir productivity estimate. There are many ways to detect and measure fractures, such as borehole televiewers and electrical borehole...doctoral thesis 2014

Hoang, A.D. (author)Segmented-flow microreactors have emerged as an attractive tool for fine chemical synthesis and (bio)chemical analysis, owing to their high heat and mass transfer rate, low axial dispersion, as well as rapid mixing. A key challenge for the use of segmented-flow microreactors in large-scale processing is their low throughput. This can be overcome...doctoral thesis 2013

(author)A convenient way to test Urban Search And Rescue (USAR) robots would be in virtual environments (VEs). Evaluations in VEs are generally accepted as alternative for real scenarios. There are obvious differences between operation in a real and virtual environment. Nonetheless, the current experiment showed no significant differences in situation...conference paper 2013

(author)are: a cable has to fit in an annulus of 160 mm, with two cooling stations at the cable ends only. Existing solutions for HTS cables would lead to excessively high coolant pressure drop in the cable, potentially affecting public acceptance of the project. A way out would be to substantially reduce AC losses from 1 down to about 0.1 W/m per phase...journal article 2012
