This research investigates Aeolian sand transport in the dynamic dune area of Kop van Schouwen Meeuwenduinen, Netherlands. Despite previous studies, many aspects of sand transport in this region remain unexplored. This study aims to provide new insights into sand erosion and transport dynamics. Two …

In this research there was looked at the connection between the Zeta potential and the pressure sensitivity of a chloroprene dispersion in order to gain insight in dispersion stability. This was done by varying the pH and ionic strength of the chloroprene dispersion. There was also looked at whether …

Wood is an increasingly demanded renewable resource and an important raw material for construction and interiors and other applications. Yet, 25% of the annually used wood turns into waste, which is mostly incinerated or - in much smaller proportions - turned into particle board. Attention for wood recycling …

Particle image velocimetry has been widely used in various sectors from the automotive to aviation, research, and development, energy, medical, turbines, reactors, electronics, education, refrigeration for flow characterization and investigation. In this study, articles examined in open literature containing …

Oil extraction from Andean lupin beans (Lupinus mutabilis SWEET) via supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) was studied on both lab scale and pilot scale. On the lab scale, the effect of pressure, solvent-to-feed ratio (S/F), sample particle size and temperature on oil yield were evaluated. The oil quality …

Drinking water utilities are responsible for providing safe drinking water. As water directly impacts public health, water utilities follow stringent water treatment standards and processes. However to keep pace with the dynamic environment and tackle challenges such as water stress, water pollution, …

Pneumatic conveying is a transportation method for particulate materials commonly employed in industrial processes. Specifically, dilute phase pneumatic conveying, characterized by high gas velocities, low solid to air ratio, and low pressure drop, is utilized. In this report, three types of materials …

The research concerns a currently developed project of implementing a tidal power harnessing system in the structure of Brouwersdam. The system would exploit hydraulic head difference between two water bodies and using gravity caused flow, generate electricity. As a side-effect to such system, hydraulic …

The Borculo Storm Project aims to create a realistic VR experience of a storm disaster. The Storm hit the Netherlands in 1925. The project also aims to raise awareness of natural disasters and climate change. It is supposed to be an exhibit of a future weather museum. Previously, the project has been …
