This paper investigates smart charging strategies for battery-electric construction machinery (non-road mobile machinery, NRMM) through a case study of a large-scale housing project in The Hague, Netherlands. The study develops a methodology to estimate energy demands and simulate charging profiles during …

Cold spray is an emerging technology that shows great promise for the repair of civil aircraft components. However, certification of such repairs requires a comprehensive evaluation of repair performance, including a detailed assessment of repair strength and the associated failure mechanisms. The present …

3D lithography by two-photon photopolymerization enables the fabrication of complex microstructures that incorporate nanomaterials assembled in a controlled manner. This technology holds promise in various fields such as optics, photonics, biology, and nanomedicine. It is also being used in the renewable …
