Abstract This study evaluated the effects of vegetation and internal water storage (IWS) on evapotranspiration (ET), hydrologic performance, and water quality in bioretention mesocosms. Twelve mesocosms were configured as planted/free-drainage (PF), planted/IWS (PI), unplanted/free-drainage (UF), and …

This research held two main intentions, the first being to analyze what subsurface layouts have what kinds of effects on pipe length for the dike failure mechanism, and the second being to create a model using this information and knowledge. The first intention was completed using two different programs: …

In conclusion, the research objective was met. The objective was to identify and structure the key factors and value creation mechanisms that shape the prospects for financial sustainability of NbS interventions, or projects with a central NbS component, in order to support the assessment of what makes …

Flash powder, typically a 70:30 w/w mixture of potassium perchlorate and aluminium powder, is currently the most frequently encountered explosive material in the Netherlands, accounting for hundreds of attacks per year. Perchlorate is a characteristic analytical marker that, even when present at low …

To broaden the application of biomethanation for energy storage and renewable integration, this study investigates the performance of a trickle-bed reactor (TBR) for hydrogen (H2) utilisation in biogas upgrading, using both pure Carbon dioxide (CO2) and biogas-derived CO2 as substrates for methane (CH4) …

Efficient hydrogen (H2) storage remains a major challenge for clean energy applications. This study presents an AI-driven methodology to optimize H2 storage in porous carbon adsorbents. A comprehensive dataset of 917 literature-derived entries was used to develop two machine learning models: Random Forest …

Bloxxgame is a digital education platform for higher education students and teachers. It teaches blockchain fundamentals in an interactive, risk-free environment—no technical background needed. The platform is tailored for teachers who want to introduce students to key blockchain concepts, including …

In this study, eye-tracking and deep learning are employed to classify pilot experience during a twin-engine Piper Seneca flight simulator based on the potential to enhance aviation training and safety through the integration of human cognitive behaviors with artificial intelligence to optimize inter-cognitive …

Objective: Simulation training in medical settings is a cornerstone in medical education to practice technical and non-technical skills. The objective of this study was to evaluate user experiences and initial reactions to a multiplayer virtual reality (VR) simulation designed for anaesthesiologists. Methods: …

Timber construction is rapidly advancing in structural engineering due to its benefits, such as light weight, ease of prefabrication, and contribution to societal goals. With an increase in building height, however, knowledge garnered by coupling advance modelling and experimental testing will enable …
