Atzampou, P. (author), Meijers, P.C. (author), Tsouvalas, A. (author), Metrikine, A. (author)Current offshore wind turbine installation and positioning methods require mechanical equipment attached on the lifted components and human intervention. The present paper studies the development of a contactless motion compensation technique by investigating a magnetically controlled pendulum. The technique involves the interaction of a...journal article 2024

Diaz, Vitali (author), van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author), Meijers, B.M. (author), Verbree, E. (author), Ahmed, N. (author), Van Lankveld, T. (author)Cloud-to-cloud (C2C) distance calculations are frequently performed as an initial stage in change detection and spatiotemporal analysis with point clouds. There are various methods for calculating C2C distance, also called inter-point distance, which refers to the distance between two corresponding point clouds captured at different epochs....conference paper 2024

Zhang, Xiang (author), Touya, Guillaume (author), Meijers, B.M. (author)Automated map generalization has been a major area of research for decades but has still not reached maturity. Besides the needs for more adaptive algorithms, a fundamental question remains: How can we transfer human generalization knowledge into a computational system more effectively? Previous efforts do not seem capable to fully overcome the ...contribution to periodical 2024

Atzampou, P. (author), Meijers, P.C. (author), Tsouvalas, A. (author), Metrikine, A. (author)The present study introduces a modified version of PD Control for the<br/>case of a magnetically controlled pendulum. The response was observed in both<br/>experimental and numerical simulations taking into consideration the non-linearity posed by the system. The modified PD controller was compared to the simple counterpart for further concrete...abstract 2023

Meijers, P.C. (author), Atzampou, P. (author), Metrikine, A. (author)An experiment has been performed on a magnetic pendulum, which interacts with an electromagnet. The free non-linear vibrations of the pendulum-magnet system are studied to identify and analyse the system’s characteristics. Due to the presence of the electromagnet, a modulation of the pendulum’s natural frequency is observed. A mathematical model...abstract 2023

Tongjing, Wang (author), Meijers, E.J. (author), Bao, Ziyu (author), Wang, H. (author)Compared to the burgeoning literature discussing the importance of agglomeration externalities for development, limited attention has been given to network externalities. This is largely due to limited data availability. We propose a general measure to proxy city network externalities based on toponym co-occurrences that indicate the...journal article 2023

Peng, D.L. (author), Meijers, B.M. (author), van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author)When users zoom in or out on a digital map, the map should change correspondingly to present geographical information at proper levels. A way to help map users better keep track of their interested objects is to change the map smoothly instead of discretely switching between several levels of detail. This paper focuses on the problem of...journal article 2023

Van den Berghe, K.B.J. (author), Peris, A.F.T. (author), Meijers, E.J. (author), Jacobs, Wouter (author)This paper enacts a dialogue between planning literature on polycentric urban regions (PUR) and port geography literature on multi-port gateways. The main proposition is that polycentric systems are the emergent outcome of the interactions between three dimensions of polycentricity: morphological, functional and institutional. The focus is on...journal article 2022

(author)Point cloud is made up of a multitude of three-dimensional (3D) points with one or more attributes attached. Point cloud is the third data paradigm in addition to the well-established object (vector) and gridded (raster) representations, since point cloud data can be directly collected, computed, stored, and analyzed without converting to other...conference paper 2022

(author)To study the irreversible changes in the magnetic stray field surrounding a steel structure caused by impact-induced elastic and plastic deformations, a steel cylinder was repeatedly subjected to axial impacts of various magnitudes. Due to impacts that induce elastic deformation, the measured magnetic stray field of the structure converges to...journal article 2022

To manage the huge amount of data, the point clouds are traditionally organized on location and map-scale; e.g. in an octree structure, where top-levels of the tree contain few points suitable for small scale overviews and lower...journal article 2022

Tongjing, Wang (author), Meijers, Evert (author), Wang, H. (author)Cities relate to other cities in many ways, and much scholarly effort goes into uncovering those relationships. Building on the principle that strongly related cities will co-occur frequently in texts, we propose a novel method to classify those toponym co-occurrences using a lexicon-based text-mining method. Millions of webpages are analysed...journal article 2022

Meijers, B.M. (author)We investigate how PCServe, a web service for disseminating massive point clouds, performs for read-only access (i.e. a visualization application). PCServe is backed by a database model based on Space Filling Curves. By adding a virtual hierarchy of blocks to the database, we can support different visualization applications for retrieval of...journal article 2022

Meijers, P.C. (author)Increasing demand for energy from renewable sources has resulted in ambitious plans to construct a large number of offshore wind farms in the coming years. In relatively shallow water depths, the preferred support structure for wind turbines is the steel monopile, which is a thin-walled cylindrical structure. To decrease the cost of the...doctoral thesis 2021
