Mares Nasarre, P. (author), van Gent, M.R.A. (author), Morales Napoles, O. (author)Rising sea levels caused by climate change are increasing the risk of overtopping on coastal structures. Moreover, there is a growing societal concern about the visual impact of these structures, which leads to the lowering of their crest freeboards. In previous studies, safety during overtopping events was assessed considering the...journal article 2024

Chang, X. (author), Wellens, P.R. (author)The lack of suitable boundary conditions in practical surface wave simulations with maritime structures in current or at forward speed may cause energy in the computational domain to accumulate due to spurious wave reflection. The common way to prevent wave reflection is to use passive wave absorbers, such as damping zones or relaxation zones...journal article 2024

(author)Recent advances in electron microscopy techniques have led to a significant scale up in volumetric imaging of biological tissue. The throughput of electron microscopes, however, remains a limiting factor for the volume that can be imaged in high resolution within reasonable time. Faster detection methods will improve throughput. Here, we have...journal article 2024

Zwarts, S. (author), Lesueur, M. (author)The foundation of homogenisation methods rests on the postulate of Hill–Mandel, describing energy consistency throughout the transition of scales. The consideration of this principle is therefore crucial in the discipline of Digital Rock Physics which focuses on the upscaling of rock properties. For this reason, numerous studies have...journal article 2023

Buist, J.F.H. (author), Sanderse, Benjamin (author), Dubinkina, Svetlana (author), Oosterlee, C.W. (author), Henkes, R.A.W.M. (author)The pressure-free two-fluid model (PFTFM) is a recent reformulation of the one-dimensional two-fluid model (TFM) for stratified incompressible flow in ducts (including pipes and channels), in which the pressure is eliminated through intricate use of the volume constraint. The disadvantage of the PFTFM was that the volumetric flow rate had to...journal article 2023

Liu, Lingya (author), Hua, Cunqing (author), Xu, Jing (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author), Wang, Yiyin (author)This article focuses on greedy approaches to select the most informative k sensors from N candidates to maximize the Fisher information, i.e., the determinant of the Fisher information matrix (FIM), which indicates the volume of the information ellipsoid (VIE) constructed by the FIM. However, it is a critical issue for conventional greedy...journal article 2023

(author), Zeppenfeld, Katja (author)Background: Electroanatomical voltage mapping (EAVM) has been compared with late gadolinium enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR), which cannot delineate diffuse fibrosis. T1-mapping CMR overcomes the limitations of LGE-CMR, but it has not been directly compared against EAVM. Objectives: This study aims to assess the...journal article 2023

Vijai Kumar, S. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Möller, M. (author)Various computational fluid dynamic simulations in engineering, such as external aerodynamics, only need the silhouette of an input geometry. Often, it is a laborious process that can take up many human hours. In addition, the CAD geometries are too complex and contain intricate features and topological holes. We showcase an effortless way to...journal article 2023

van de Ruit, M. (author), Eisemann, E. (author)Spectral rendering is a crucial solution for photorealistic rendering. However, most available texture assets are RGB-only, and access to spectral content is limited. Uplifting methods that recover full spectral representations from RGB inputs have therefore received much attention. Yet, most methods are deterministic, while, in reality,...conference paper 2023
