Ganesan, Abiseka Akash (author), Houtepen, A.J. (author), Crisp, R.W. (author)From a niche field over 30 years ago, quantum dots (QDs) have developed into viable materials for many commercial optoelectronic devices. We discuss the advancements in Pb-based QD solar cells (QDSCs) from a viewpoint of the pathways an excited state can take when relaxing back to the ground state. Systematically understanding the fundamental...review 2018

Abbel, Robert (author), Galagan, Yulia (author), Groen, W.A. (author)The production of electronic devices using solution based (“wet”) deposition technologies has some decisive technical and commercial advantages compared to competing approaches like vacuum based (“dry”) manufacturing. Particularly, the potential to scale up production processes to large areas and high volumes by introducing continuous roll-to...review 2018

Tonin, F. (author), Arends, I.W.C.E. (author)Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is a pharmaceutical ingredient widely used in clinics. As bile acid it solubilizes cholesterol gallstones and improves the liver function in case of cholestatic diseases. UDCA can be obtained from cholic acid (CA), which is the most abundant and least expensive bile acid available. The now available chemical routes...review 2018

Swuste, P.H.J.J. (author), van Nunen, K. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Khakzad, N. (author)Major accidents in Western countries, receiving a lot of media attention in the 1970s, are starting point for research into internal and external domino effects in the chemical and petrochemical sectors and clusters. Initially, these reports are published by government institutions and government-related research centres. With the upcoming...review 2019

Scharenborg, O.E. (author), van Os, Marjolein (author)There is ample evidence that recognising words in a non-native language is more difficult than in a native language, even for those with a high proficiency in the non-native language involved, and particularly in the presence of background noise. Why is this the case? To answer this question, this paper provides a systematic review of the...review 2019

Gholinejad, M. (author), Loeve, A.J. (author), Dankelman, J. (author)The vital role of surgeries in healthcare requires a constant attention to improvement. Surgical process modelling is an innovative and rather recently introduced approach for tackling the issues in today’s complex surgeries. This modelling field is very challenging and still under development, therefore, it is not always clear which...review 2019

Pasqualetto Cassinis, L. (author), Fonod, R. (author), Gill, E.K.A. (author)The relative pose estimation of an inactive target by an active servicer spacecraft is a critical task in the design of current and planned space missions, due to its relevance for close-proximity operations, i.e. the rendezvous with a space debris and/or in-orbit servicing. Pose estimation systems based solely on a monocular camera are...review 2019

Wang, G. (author), Marradia, Chiara (author), Albayrak, A. (author), van der Cammen, T.J.M. (author)Co-designing with people with dementia (PwD) can uncover their needs and preferences, which have been often overlooked. It is difficult for PwD to understand designers and express themselves in a conventional co-design session. This study aims to evaluate the effects of involving PwD in design research on both PwD and the design process; to...review 2019

(author), Bruen, Michael (author), Cayuela, Carles (author), Creed, Irena F. (author), van de Giesen, N.C. (author), Grasso, Domenico (author)Nature-based solutions for water-resource challenges require advances in the science of ecohydrology. Current understanding is limited by a shortage of observations and theories that can further our capability to synthesize complex processes across scales ranging from submillimetres to tens of kilometres. Recent developments in environmental...review 2020

(author), Benamor, Abdelbaki (author), Al-Naemi, Fatima (author), Onwusogh, Udeogu (author)Gas-to-liquid (GTL) technology involves the conversion of natural gas into several liquid hydrocarbon products. The Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) process is the most widely applied approach for GTL, and it is the main source of wastewater in the GTL process. The wastewater is generally characterized by high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total...review 2020

Boyce, William Paul (author), Lindsay, Anthony (author), Zgonnikov, A. (author), Rañó, Iñaki (author), Wong-Lin, Kong Fatt (author)Multimodal integration is an important process in perceptual decision-making. In humans, this process has often been shown to be statistically optimal, or near optimal: sensory information is combined in a fashion that minimizes the average error in perceptual representation of stimuli. However, sometimes there are costs that come with the...review 2020

Wang, M. (author), Ge, Daohan (author), Zhang, Liqiang (author), Herder, J.L. (author)Compliant micromechanisms (CMMs) acquire mobility from the deflection of elastic members and have been proven to be robust by millions of silicon MEMS devices. However, the limited deflection of silicon impedes the realization of more sophisticated CMMs, which often require larger deflections. Recently, some novel manufacturing processes have...review 2021
