Li, L. (author), Hoefsloot, H. (author), de Graaf, A.A. (author), Acar, E. (author), Smilde, A.K. (author)Background: Analysis of dynamic metabolomics data holds the promise to improve our understanding of underlying mechanisms in metabolism. For example, it may detect changes in metabolism due to the onset of a disease. Dynamic or time-resolved metabolomics data can be arranged as a three-way array with entries organized according to a subjects...article 2022

(author)Last spring, super dust storms reappeared in East Asia after being absent for one and a half decades. The event caused enormous losses in both Mongolia and China. Accurate simulation of such super sandstorms is valuable for the quantification of health damage, aviation risks, and profound impacts on the Earth system, but also to reveal the...article 2022

(author), Verweij, M.D. (author)Shear wave elastography (SWE) has the potential to determine cardiac tissue stiffness from non-invasive shear wave speed measurements, important, e.g., for predicting heart failure. Previous studies showed that waves traveling in the interventricular septum (IVS) may display Lamb-like dispersive behaviour, introducing a thickness-frequency...article 2021

Nägele, T. (author), Hooman, J. (author)Gaining insight in the properties of an Internet of Things (IoT) system during the design phase is difficult. The cosimulation of such a system would be very useful, but creating it is usually time consuming. By means of domain specific languages (DSLs) we support the fast construction of large co-simulations of IoT systems. This approach...conference paper 2019

van der Kleij, R. (author), Hueting, T.F. (author), Schraagen, J.M.C. (author)Dynamic Positioning (DP) is a computer-controlled process to automatically keep a floating vessel at a specific position or to follow a pre-defined path (tracking) by using its own propellers and thrusters. The human supervisory controller has no direct need to constantly know what the status is of all parts of the automation and the system it...article 2018

Verreault, J. (author)The PELE ammunition is characterized by a low-density filling material surrounded by a high-density brittle jacket material. An analytical model describing the fragmentation of this ammunition behind a target plate is presented. This model assumes uniaxial strain in the filling and uses the RankingeHugoniot relations to calculate the material...article 2015

van der Hulst, A. (author), Boonekamp, R. (author), van den Homberg, M. (author)This paper describes the field tests of a simulation based game aiming at raising awareness and creating a deeper understanding of the dynamics of the comprehensive approach (CA). The setting of this game is that of a failed state where an UN intervention takes place after massive conflict that requires a CA to stabilize the situation. That is,...conference paper 2014

Leeuwenburgh, O. (author), Egberts, P. (author), Chitu, A. (author), Wilschut, F. (author)Life-cycle optimization is the process of finding field operation strategies that aim to optimize recovery or economic value with a long-term (years to decades) horizon. A reservoir simulation model is therefore generally appropriate and sufficient to explore the impact of different recovery scenarios. A number of challenges arise when trying to...conference paper 2014
