Contactless Size Reference in Forensic Photography: Design and Verification of the Novel FreeRef-1 System

In photographs of evidence in forensic investigations, physical size references (e.g., rulers or stickers) are often placed next to a trace to allow us to take measurements from photos. However, this is laborious and introduces contamination risks. The FreeRef-1 system is a contactless size reference system that allows us to take forensic...

Classical HPCN geared to application in industry

In The Netherlands as a result of a national HPCN initiative a Foundation HPCN was established in 1995. The purpose of this Foundation is to stimulate structural and lasting cooperation of universities, technological institutes and industry in economically relevant applications of HPCN. Projects have been selected and since the beginning of 1996...

De invloed van CAD op research

NLR has developed an infrastructure of hardware and software for support of aerodynamic design of aircraft. Organizational and technical aspects of this development are described.

CAD-systemen voor overdracht van kennis

The NLR in the Netherlands renders scientific support and technical assistance for the design and operation of aircraft and spacecraft. The approach of NLR can be characterized by integration of experimental and theoretical investigations. For this an integrated computer and terminal network has been developed that links both NLR laboratory...

De ingenieur in een instituut voor toegepast wetenschappelijk onderzoek

In this paper aspects are discussed that determine the functioning of engineers in a research and development environment. Emphasis is put on multi-disciplinary activities in a matrix organization that are based in a good knowledge of mono-disciplines. It is indicated how the Technical University can improve some aspects of the education....

De wijze waarop wiskunde wordt gebruikt bij het onderzoek door het Nationaal Lucht- en Ruimtevaartlaboratorium

In deze voordracht is gepoogd om aan te geven wat er wordt verwacht van het toepassen van wiskunde in het Nationaal Lucht- en Ruimtevaartlaboratorium NLR. Hierbij staat centraal dat de bepaling van de waarde van de toepassing van de wiskxinde plaatsvindt binnen niet-wiskundige technische disciplines. Na een beschrijving van de taken van het NLR...
