Veerman, H.E.T. (author), Schleijpen, H.M.A. (author), Brettschneider, S.A. (author), Amram, R. (author)The observable infrared signature of naval platforms is crucial in determining survivability and is therefore an important issue in warfare. Increased detectability in the EM spectrum leads to higher susceptibility against threats like sea skimming anti-ship missiles. The infrared platform signature is not a fixed quantity but a highly dynamic...conference paper 2020

Rangnau, T. (author), van Buijtenen, R. (author), Fransen, F. (author), Turkmen, F. (author)Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) have become a well-known practice in DevOps to ensure fast delivery of new features. This is achieved by automatically testing and releasing new software versions, e.g. multiple times per day.

Rath, S.S. (author), Hoedemaekers, E.R.G.E. (author), Wilkins, S.S. (author)Lithium ion (Li-ion) batteries in electric vehicle (EV) applications must operate within a narrow temperature range to ensure safety, performance and longevity. Hence, advanced thermal management strategies should have access to internal cell temperatures in a battery pack. In real world application, surface temperatures can be measured, but it...conference paper 2020
