For the degree of Doctor of Engineering Sciences and Technology   The need for high-resolution 3D imaging of biological tissues is a driving force behind the development of innovative technologies. Among these technologies, microfocus computed tomography (MicroCT) stands out for its exceptional spatial resolution, user-friendliness, and cost-effectiveness.

For the degree of Doctor of Engineering Sciences and Technology   Parkinson's disease results in various gait impairments such as reduced gait speed, stride length and cadence, as well as a reduced level of long-range autocorrelations in series of stride durations, a subtle aspect of natural gait variability.

This presentation focuses on the development and application of Extended Discontinuous Galerkin (XDG) methods, initially motivated by the need to accurately simulate incompressible multiphase flows, such as interactions between oil and water or air bubbles in liquids.

Simulations of human movement that predict how a person moves based on a neuro-musculoskeletal model can be used to enhance our understanding of the interaction between motor control and musculoskeletal dynamics, and ultimately to design optimal treatments for neuro-musculoskeletal disorders.

Water scarcity is one of the problems caused by global industrialization. In developing countries, population increase, rural exodus and environmental degradation are major threats to humanity. Inadequate wastewater treatment is a major concern, as it contributes greatly to the destruction of water resources when discharged into the environment.

Characterization is a sole day-to-day activity at IMAP. It is an essential act for understanding the fundamental behavior of processed materials, whether they are metals, thin films, chemical reactions, membranes, or polymers. In this seminar, I will introduce the potential of neutrons for characterizing materials in research.

A series of three seminars on the topic of sustainable iron fuel:   Closing the metal fuel cycle Research on the reduction process of iron-ore at the TU/e The impact of climate change due to greenhouse gasses has been acknowledged and countries across the world are introducing policies to reduce these emissions.

Many well-known examples exist of elastic structures displaying distinctly different states under load, most commonly when they buckle, and there is considerable interest to design materials and structures capable of switching from one deformation state to another for functional purposes.

      Part 1: Nathan Klavzer How doing some simulations can be insightful - an example in polymer composites Have you had some finite element (i.e. numerical simulations) classes in the past and got scared or, perhaps, disgusted ?  Well, let me help you regain faith in the usefulness of simulations in your PhD/work !!

In new-generation nuclear reactors, liquid metals are used to cool down the reacting core. Due to the opacity of liquid metals and their harsh operating conditions, a digital design approach based on CFD simulations is useful to study the thermal-hydraulics conditions.
