Failure is a popular topic of research. It has long been a source of study in fields such as sociology and anthropology, science and technology studies, privacy and surveillance, cultural, feminist and media studies, art, theatre, film, and political science. When things go awry, breakdown, or rupture …

The flexible strain sensors have been a topic of interest for multiple studies in the past years. These sensors are soft, bendable mechanisms, which can be applied to substrates through printing or other means. They can indicate longitudinal strain through resistance change, which means that they can …

Limestone is a sedimentary rock that is composed mostly of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Limestone is, among many applications, used as a raw material for the manufacture of quicklime. When limestone is heated, the stone calcinates and quicklime is formed. The primary use of quicklime is in the steel and …

A main challenge in single emitter microscopy is that it is difficult to efficiently collect all the emitted light from single photon sources. Due to the dipole nature of the single photon sources, is it hard to measure the brightness of these molecules in a calibrated manner, since the light is not …

Voor het meten van elektrochemische processen van micro- tot nanoschaal wordt een techniek ontwikkeld die elektrochemische impedantiemetingen met een AFM naald mogelijk maken. Hierbij bevindt zich actief materiaal op een AFM naald en worden er metingen verricht in elektrolyt. Tijdens dit onderzoek …

From the thesis: SUMMARY Raspberry-like particles were made with spherical positively charged seed particles and spherical negatively charged smaller particles. The attraction from the small particles onto the surface of the seed particles is a heterocoagulation technique. It has been proven that it …

Population size increase at the Balgzand intertidal in the western Dutch Wadden Sea suggested a growth decrease in both plaice and flounder populations over summer. Research into the seasonal growth of 0-group plaice, Pleuronectes platessa, confirmed this suspicion. The years 1995 and 1996 had contrasting …

De klanten van Tata Steel stellen steeds hogere eisen aan het productenpakket dat zij afnemen. Het product moet voldoen aan de productspecificaties en moet van zeer consistente kwaliteit zijn.

To analyze, interpret and evaluate microscopic images, used in medical diagnostics and forensic science, video images for educational purposes were made with a very high resolution of 4096 × 2160 pixels (4K), which is four times as many pixels as High-Definition Video (1920 × 1080 pixels). The unprecedented …
