Liu, Z. (author), Htein, L. (author), Cheng, L.K. (author), Martina, Q. (author), Jansen, R. (author), Tam, H.Y. (author)In this paper, we present a miniature fluidic flow sensor based on a short fiber Bragg grating inscribed in a single mode fiber and heated by Co2+-doped multimode fibers. The proposed flow sensor was employed to measure the flow rates of oil and water, showing good sensitivity of 0.339 nm/(m/s) and 0.578 nm/(m/s) for water and oil, flowing at v ...article 2017

(author), Schleijpen, H.M.A. (author)In performance prediction of IR sensor systems for missile detection, apart from the sensor specifications, target signatures are essential variables. Very often, for velocities up to Mach 2-2.5, a simple model based on the aerodynamic heating of a perfect gas was used to calculate the temperatures of missile targets.

Volker, A.W.F. (author), van Neer, P.L.M.J. (author)Proper spatial sampling is critical for many applications. If the sampling criterion is not met, artifacts appear for example in images. Last year an iterative approach was presented using wave field extrapolation to interpolate spatially aliased signals. The main idea behind this approach is that after inverse wave field extrapolation the...conference paper 2017
