(author), Capellini, G. (author)A strained Ge quantum well, grown on a SiGe/Si virtual substrate and hosting two electrostatically defined hole spin qubits, is nondestructively investigated by synchrotron-based scanning X-ray diffraction microscopy to determine all its Bravais lattice parameters. This allows rendering the three-dimensional spatial dependence of the six strain...article 2023

Mehrabani, B.B. (author), Erdmann, J. (author), Sgambi, L. (author), Snelder, M. (author)One of the potential capabilities of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) is that they can have different route choice behavior and driving behavior compared with human Driven Vehicles (HDVs). This will lead to mixed traffic flow with multiple classes of route choice behavior. Therefore, it is crucial to solve the multiclass Traffic...conference paper 2023

Koene, F.G.H.F. (author), Eslami-Mossallam, B.B. (author)Future energy infrastructures are expected to be smart, with the application of energy storage and demand-side management strategies. To size the energy storage and assess the flexibility of the heat demand in a district, insight into its heat demand profile is a prerequisite. A tool was developed to generate the hourly space heating demand of a...article 2023

Duijster, A. (author), Volker, A. (author), van den Berg, F. (author), Celada-Casero, C. (author)The applicability of laser ultrasonics for the determination of grain size and phase composition in steels under different temperatures was investigated. This was done by obtaining the velocity and attenuation of propagating ultrasonic waves in a simulated steel medium.

Landman, A. (author), Mol, D. (author), van Emmerik, M.L. (author), van Groen, E.L. (author)In this simulator study, we investigated the potential negative transfer of training that may result from situations where a correct decision made by the trainee is being overruled by the instructor to save training time. We hypothesized that discarding a correct decision in a training situation can introduce confusion when the trainee...report 2023

Vergara, P.P. (author), Giraldo, J.S. (author), Salazar, M. (author), Panda, N.K. (author), Nguyen, P.H. (author)A photovoltaic (PV)-rich low-voltage (LV) distribution network poses a limit on the export power of PVs due to the voltage magnitude constraints. By defining a customer export limit, switching off the PV inverters can be avoided, and thus reducing power curtailment. Based on this, this paper proposes a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP)...article 2023

(author)Conventional Molecular Dynamics (MD) models of bitumen are built by homogeneously mixing molecules in a volume without considering that the molecules in bitumen are known to exhibit phase behavior and form distinctive molecular arrangements. These are known to have a significant impact in the behavior of bitumen, and considering their existence...article 2023

Bontekoe, T. (author), Phillipson, F. (author), van der Schoot, W.E. (author)One of the first fields where quantum computing will likely show its use is optimisation. Many optimisation problems naturally arise in a quadratic manner, such as the quadratic knapsack problem. The current state of quantum computers requires these problems to be formulated as a quadratic unconstrained binary optimisation problem, or QUBO....conference paper 2023

Austin, P.C. (author), Giardiello, D. (author), van Buuren, S. (author)We examined the setting in which a variable that is subject to missingness is used both as an inclusion/exclusion criterion for creating the analytic sample and subsequently as the primary exposure in the analysis model that is of scientific interest. An example is cancer stage, where patients with stage IV cancer are often excluded from the...article 2023

Langidis, A. (author), Petrovic, V. (author), Mancini, S. (author), Boorsma, K. (author), Schepers, J.G. (author), Kühn, M. (author)Dynamic inflow effects occur due to the rapid change of the rotor loading under conditions such as fast pitch steps. The paper presents a setup suitable for the investigation of those effects for non-axisymmetric rotor conditions, namely individual pitch steps. Furthermore, insights into the relevant phenomena are gathered. An individual pitch...conference paper 2023

(author)Urban areas are becoming increasingly crowded, and as a result it is challenging to ensure that these areas remain liveable and accessible. Municipalities need to make strategic long-term decisions regarding urban planning, which is often a difficult and time-consuming task. Digital twins of cities can assist policy makers during this process,...article 2023

Adjenughwure, K. (author), Klunder, G. (author), Hogema, J. (author), van der Horst, R. (author)During driving in real traffic, often conflict situations arise which do not lead to an accident; however, they offer a good indication of traffic (un)safety. There are many methods and indicators for classifying whether a current driving situation can be considered as a conflict or not (e.g., time to collision, post-encroachment time). However,...article 2023
