van Thienen-Visser, K. (author), Pruiksma, J.P. (author), Breunese, J.N. (author)The Groningen gas field in the Netherlands is Europe’s largest gas field. It has been produced since 1963 and production is expected to continue until 2080. The pressure decline in the field causes compaction in the reservoir which is observed as subsidence at the surface. Measured subsidence is characterized by a delay at the start of...article 2015

Pfahl, A. (author), Randt, M. (author), Meier, F. (author), Zaschke, M. (author), Geurts, C.P.W. (author), Buselmeier, M. (author)The AutoR-project takes a holistic approach to reduce the cost of heliostat fields: Wireless control and energy supply enables to use smaller heliostats which need less steel per mirror area (but usually have high wiring cost). A low cost but high efficient drive system is chosen which reduces energy consumption to a minimum amount and leads to...conference paper 2015

Alti-Veltin, B. (author), Vredeveldt, A.W. (author)Calculation of the energy absorption of marine structures at certain impact scenarios by means of finite element analysis is regularly being performed by researchers. Recent studies at TNO, focusing on the vulnerability of a liquefied natural gas tank, showed that in collisions the deformation of the structures is much more complex compared to...conference paper 2015

van Bentum, C.A. (author), Geurts, C.P.W. (author)Wind-induced pressure differences over rain screens are determined by the external pressures and the pressures inside the cavity. Minimizing this pressure difference decreases the risk of water leakage and also helps to minimize the local loads on the façade elements. Current rules to determine the wind loads on such structures are based on very...conference paper 2015

(author)This paper presents a monitoring and modelling methodology to assess the current and future conditions of steel bridges subjected to fatigue cracking. Steel bridges are subjected to fatigue cracking as a result of fluctuating stresses caused by the crossing of heavy vehicles. Specifically for orthotropic steel bridge decks, fatigue cracking is...conference paper 2015

Walters, C.L. (author), Przydatek, J. (author)It is vely well-known that fracture toughness depends on loading rate. Higher strain rates can shift the ductile to brittle transition curve to higher temperatures, resulting in a more brittle structure at the same temperature. However, there is little effort to relate the testing rate to the loading rate within the offshore and maritime...conference paper 2014

Ritzen, M.J. (author), Vroon, Z.A.E.P. (author), Rovers, R. (author), Geurts, C.P.W. (author)A significant amount of globat energy consumption takes place in the built environment, with as collateral effect CO2-related climate change. One of the strategies to realize a significant CO2 reduction is by integrating photovoltaic modules in the building envelope (BIPV). Disadvantages of BIPV include a possibly lower energy output and a...conference paper 2014

Walters, C.L. (author)Simulation of failure in plate materials (represented as shell elements) is critical for the correct determination of crash performance of ships and offshore structures. This need has traditionally been filled with failure loci that give the failure strain in terms of stress triaxiality. In recent years, a third dimension (Lode parameter) has...conference paper 2014

van Bentum, C.A. (author), Kalkman, I.M. (author), Geurts, C.P.W. (author)The net wind load on the outer layer of a façade consisting of multiple layers is determined by the external pressure and the cavity pressure. For an air-permeable outer layer, the cavity pressure is dependent on the extent to which the external pressure equalizes over the openings. Minimizing the pressure difference between external pressure...conference paper 2014
