Derks, M. (author), Berkers, F. (author), Tukker, A. (author)Sustainability transitions are purposeful and require deliberate collective action from multiple organizations, leading to the necessity to adopt new business models and redesign value networks. In both business model and sustainability transition research, the explicit activities needed to re-shape value creation and capture systems of...article 2022

Prediction of the Magnetic State of Ferromagnetic Objects by Assimilating Data into a Physical ModelVijn, A. (author), Peet, B.J. (author), Schaaphok, M. (author), Lepelaars, E. (author), Heemink, A. (author)This paper presents a hybrid model to estimate the magnetic behaviour of a ferromagnetic structure. The mathematical-physical model has been developed using the Method of Moments combined with a hysteresis model. The mathematical model was derived by a linearisation of the hysteresis curve. The initial magnetic state of a ferromagnetic object is...article 2022

(author)Last spring, super dust storms reappeared in East Asia after being absent for one and a half decades. The event caused enormous losses in both Mongolia and China. Accurate simulation of such super sandstorms is valuable for the quantification of health damage, aviation risks, and profound impacts on the Earth system, but also to reveal the...article 2022

(author)Numerical models are proposed that are able to describe the current-voltage (I-V) behaviour of two Cu2ZnGeSe4 (CZGSe) solar cells measured under different illuminations at 300 K. In the model, the doping density of the CZGSe layer and the mobility of carriers are determined by capacitance-voltage (C-V) profiling and AC field Hall effect...article 2020

Paap, B. (author), Kraaijpoel, D. (author), Wassing, B. (author), van Wees, J.D. (author)Numerical simulations of seismic wave propagation usually rely on a simple source modelconsisting of an idealized point location and a moment tensor. In general, this is a validapproximation when the source dimensions are small relative to the distance of points at whichthe seismic wave motions are to be evaluated. Otherwise, a more realistic...article 2020

Paap, B. (author), Kraaijpoel, D. (author), Bakker, M. (author), Gharti, H.N. (author)Gas extraction from the Groningen natural gas field, situated in the Netherlands, frequently induces earthquakes in the reservoir that cause damage to buildings, and pose a safety hazard and a nuisance to the local population. Due to the dependence of the national heating infrastructure on Groningen gas, the short-term mitigation measures are...article 2018

(author)The numerical LOTOS-EUROS model that provides information on the regional distribution of aerosols was implemented for a new domain, Southern Africa. The first set-up for the study areas is discussed and a comparison of model products to experimental data is presented. The model compares favorably to MODIS satellite products on a regional scale....conference paper 2018

(author)In this study, we investigate a strategy to accelerate the data assimilation (DA) algorithm. Based on evaluations of the computational time, the analysis step of the assimilation turns out to be the most expensive part. After a study of the characteristics of the ensemble ash state, we propose a mask-state algorithm which records the sparsity...article 2017

(author)The presence of convective fluid flow in permeable layers can create zones of anomalously high temperature which can be exploited for geothermal energy. Temperature measurements from the Luttelgeest-01 (LTG-01) well in the northern onshore region of the Netherlands indicate variations in the thermal regime that could be indicative of convection....article 2016

Verreault, J. (author)The PELE ammunition is characterized by a low-density filling material surrounded by a high-density brittle jacket material. An analytical model describing the fragmentation of this ammunition behind a target plate is presented.
