This chapter discusses the factors that influence the development aspirations of skilled Indians living in Europe and those who have returned to India. While India is seen as a country that benefits from the positive effects of skilled migration, it lacks ...
We present design and performance of a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) that operates at temperatures down to 10 mK providing ultimate energy resolution on the atomic scale. The STM is attached to a dilution refrigerator with direct access to an ultra h ...
Important texts about the work of OMA (and by Rem Koolhaas himself) have been written in English. In this article, the reception in the Dutch-speaking world is examined, from 1978 until 1990. As the writings of critics such as Geert Bekaert, Hans van Dijk, ...
There is a paucity of data and insight in the mechanisms of, and controls on flow separation and recirculation at natural sharply-curved river bends. Herein we report on successful laboratory experiments that elucidate flow structure in one constant-width ...
We here describe the result of simulations of 15 generic neutron instruments for the long-pulsed European Spallation Source. All instruments have been simulated for 20 different settings of the source time structure, corresponding to pulse lengths between ...
Transmission electron microscopy has witnessed rampant development and surging point resolution over the past few years. The improved imaging performance of modern electron microscopes shifts the bottleneck for image contrast and resolution to sample prepa ...
Two headrace tunnels and the drainage tunnel were excavated by tunnel boring machines (TBMs) in Jinping II Hydropower Station. During TBM excavation, two types of slabbing failure were encountered in these deep buried marble tunnels. One is rock bursting a ...
This paper presents the design of a flexure based focusing system, part of the Close-Up Imager (CLUPI) instrument which is planned to be integrated on the future ExoMars NASA-ESA Mars Rover to be launched in 2018. Various design trade-offs are discussed, i ...
The reconstruction of a diffusion field, such as temperature, from samples collected by a sensor network is a classical inverse problem and it is known to be ill-conditioned. Previous work considered source models, such as sparse sources, to regularize the ...
In stochastic optimal control the distribution of the exogenous noise is typically unknown and must be inferred from limited data before dynamic programming (DP)-based solution schemes can be applied. If the conditional expectations in the DP recursions ar ...
