Marine debris is a growing global problem. Due to the wide ocean dynamics worldwide, predicting the transport of floating marine debris, such as plastic, is difficult. Although large-scale distribution patterns and accumulation zones are recognised and reproduced by numerical models, small-scale prediction …

Met toestemming overgenomen uit Microniek, 2020, nr. 5 A stereo-vision system that was developed for application in mobile robots turned outto lack depth resolution in the background of the pictures. A simulator was built togain understanding of the parameters that influence depth estimation in stereo …

Currently the advances in the field of 3D printing are causing a revolution in the (bio-)medical field. With applications ranging from patient-specific anatomical models for surgical preparation to prosthetic limbs and even scaffolds for tissue engineering, the possibilities seem endless. Today, the …

In 1990, livestock grazing was introduced in Meijendel, a 1800 ha lime-rich coastal dune area, at a density of 0.06–0.07 LLU.ha-1.year−1 (1:12–18 ha) to counteract encroachment of tall grasses and shrubland on dune grassland and increase the bare sand area. Monitoring was based on four digital orthophotos …

Most endogenous viruses, an important proportion of eukaryote genomes, are doomed to slowly decay. Little is known, however, on how they evolve when they confer a benefit to their host. Bracoviruses are essential for the parasitism success of parasitoid wasps, whose genomes they integrated ~103 million …

Many people on Earth are hungry or do not have a reliable source of drinking water. Drought-tolerantcrops do not need much water to grow and therefor usable in regions where water is an issue. Cropbreeders are working on crops that are more drought-tolerant and grow faster. Corp …

Neighborhood image processing operations on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) are considered as memory intensive operations. A large memory bandwidth is required to transfer the required pixel data from external memory to the processing unit. On-chip image buffers are employed to reduce this data …
