Pirmana, V. (author), Alisjahbana, A.S. (author), Yusuf, A.A. (author), Hoekstra, R. (author), Tukker, A. (author)The use of fossil fuel-based vehicles may gradually be replaced by electric vehicles in the future. The trend indicates that the number of users of electric vehicles, especially electric cars, continues to increase. Indonesia is well-positioned to take advantage of this opportunity as it has the world’s largest nickel reserves, an essential raw...article 2023

(author)Digital light processing (DLP) is an accurate and fast additive manufacturing technique to produce a variety of products, from patient-customized biomedical implants to consumer goods. However, DLP's use in tissue engineering has been hampered due to a lack of biodegradable resin development. Herein, a library of biodegradable poly(esters)...article 2023

Peysakhovich, V. (author), Ledegang, W. (author), Houben, M. (author), Groen, E. (author)Eye movements analysis has great potential for understanding operator behaviour in many safety-critical domains, including aviation. In addition to traditional eye-tracking measures on pilots’ visual behavior, it seems promising to incorporate machine learning approaches to classify pilots’ visual scanning patterns. However, given the multitude...conference paper 2022

Veraar, R.G. (author), Oosthuisen, R. (author), Andersson, K. (author)Ramjet propulsion for gun-launched projectiles has received substantial attention since the invention of the ramjet engine concept in 1913. After the second World War, projectiles using solid fuel gained interest due to their inherent simplicity and robustness. Throughout the world, research and development programs have been and still are being...article 2022

Sastry, S. (author), Garg, P. (author), Silvas, E. (author), Willems, F. (author)Complexity of engine control systems is continuously growing due to an increased number of subsystems and the need for robust performance. For traditional map-based as well as state-of-the-art model-based approaches, this will lead to unacceptable development costs and time for future engines. Parametrization of the embedded models using...conference paper 2022

Zhang, J. (author), Zhebel, E. (author), van den Boom, S.J. (author), Liu, D. (author), Aragon, A.M. (author)In this work, an object-oriented geometric engine is proposed to solve problems with discontinuities, for instance, material interfaces and cracks, by means of unfitted, immersed, or enriched finite element methods (FEMs). Both explicit and implicit representations, such as geometric entities and level sets, are intro duced to describe...article 2022

van der Ploeg, C. (author), Smit, R. (author), Teerhuis, A. (author), Silvas, E. (author)Developing safe automated vehicles that can be proactive, safe, and comfortable in mixed traffic requires improved planning methods that are risk-averse and that account for predictions of the motion of other road users. To consider these criteria, in this article, we propose a nonlinear model-predictive trajectory generator scheme, which...conference paper 2022

Maljaars, J. (author), Leonetti, D. (author), Hashemi, B. (author), Snijder, H.H.B. (author)This paper presents a probabilistic framework to derive the safety factors for fatigue of steel and composite steel concrete road bridges. Engineering models are used for the design and the safety factor is derived in such a way that the design meets the target reliability set by international Eurocode and ISO standards, estimated using measured...article 2022

Bearfield, G. (author), van Gulijk, C. (author), Thomas, R. (author)Safety critical functions of the engineered railway need to perform at levels of integrity that are so high that an acceptable failure rate cannot be demonstrated through testing alone. Where such functions need to be implemented in complex programmable electronic systems certain design, build and test requirements are defined in technical...article 2022
