Increasing pressure on the reduction or elimination of the use of fossil fuels in shipping requires the application of new maritime fuel alternatives. Green and circular produced hydrogen as a maritime fuel in fuel cell systems offers a great solution for these concerns. A fuel cell system has a zero emission performance, solid state silent...

Current EEDI (Energy Efficiency Design Index) regulations striving to reduce the installed engine power on new ships for a low EEDI may lead to underpowered ships having insufficient power when operating in adverse sea conditions. In this paper, the operational safety of a low-powered ocean-going cargo ship operating in adverse sea conditions...

We report measured T<sub>c</sub> of superconducting Ti/Au bilayer strips with a width W varying from 5 to 50 µm. The strips were fabricated based on a Ti/Au bilayer that consists of a 41-nm-thick Ti layer to which a 280-nm-thick Au layer was added. We find that the T<sub>c</sub> drops as W decreases and the declining trend almost perfectly...

Specifying and mechanically verifying type safe programming languages requires significant effort. This effort can in theory be reduced by defining and reusing pre-verified, modular components. In practice, however, existing approaches to modular mechanical verification require many times as much specification code as plain, monolithic...

As shipping is setting sail for a sustainable future, the application of fuel cells is increasingly regarded as a promising technology to reduce or fully eliminate emissions. Fuel cells convert the chemical energy in fuels directly into electricity, achieving high efficiencies while emitting no hazardous compounds and producing little noise...

Background: Applying Continuous Experimentation on a large scale is not easily achieved. Although the evolution within large tech organisations is well understood, we still lack a good understanding of how to transition a company towards applying more experiments. Objective: This study investigates how practitioners define, value and apply...

Intra-cortical extracellular neural sensing is being rapidly and widely applied in several clinical research and brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), as the number of sensing channels continues to double every 6 years. By distributing multiple high-density extracellular micro-electrode arrays (MEAs) in vivo across the brain, each with 1000's of...

Fast analysis response times in IDEs are essential for a good editor experience. Incremental type-checking can provide that in a scalable fashion. However, existing techniques are not reusable between languages. Moreover, mutual and dynamic dependencies preclude traditional approaches to incrementality. This makes finding automatic approaches to...

This paper introduces a machine learning approach for optimizing propellers. The method aims to improve the computational cost of optimization by reducing the number of evaluations required to find solutions. This is achieved by directing the search towards design clusters with good performance, i.e. high propulsive efficiency and low...

Context. In the near future, dedicated telescopes will observe Earth-like exoplanets in reflected parent starlight, allowing their physical characterization. Because of the huge distances, every exoplanet will remain an unresolved, single pixel, but temporal variations in the pixel’s spectral flux contain information about the planet’s surface...

When reconstructing natural satellites' ephemerides from space missions' tracking data, the dynamics of the spacecraft and natural bodies are often solved for separately, in a decoupled manner. Alternatively, the ephemeris generation and spacecraft orbit determination can be performed concurrently. This method directly maps the available data...

Copernicus Sentinel–1 is a C-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite mission within the European Copernicus Programme. The two satellites Sentinel-1A and -1B were launched in April 2014 and 2016, respectively. The Copernicus POD (Precise Orbit Determination) Service is responsible for the determination of orbital and auxiliary products...

Fluctuating electricity prices offer potential economic savings for the consumption of electricity by flexible assets such as Electric Vehicles (EVs). This study proposes an operational bidding framework that minimizes the charging costs of an EV fleet by submitting an optimized bid to the day-ahead electricity market. The framework consists...

Analysis of ship propulsion system performance is often performed using detailed hydrodynamic models to assess load changes, which are subsequently compared to static engine limits, or by detailed engine models that are rarely integrated with sufficiently detailed propulsion models for load change estimation. To investigate the dynamic engine...

We propose and analyse an optimization method that uses a machine learning approach to solve multi-objective, constrained propeller optimization problems. The method uses an online learning strategy where explainable supervised classifiers learn the location of the Pareto front and advise search strategies. The classifiers are trained with...

Treatment planning of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) includes distinguishing GISTs from other intra-abdominal tumors and GISTs’ molecular analysis. The aim of this study was to evaluate radiomics for distinguishing GISTs from other intra-abdominal tumors, and in GISTs, predict the c-KIT, PDGFRA, BRAF mutational status, and mitotic...

Cold Atom technology has undergone rapid development in recent years and has been demonstrated in space in the form of cold atom scientific experiments and technology demonstrators, but has so far not been used as the fundamental sensor technology in a science mission. The European Space Agency therefore funded a 7-month project to define the...

Ship designers hardly ever receive feedback from the actual operation of their designs apart from sea acceptance trials. Similarly, crews operating the vessels do not receive a clear picture of the energy performance and environmental footprint of different options. This paper proposes a methodology based on operational data from continuous...

Solar sailing is a spacecraft propulsion method relying solely on solar radiation pressure to provide thrust and is therefore propellantless by nature. Although it represents a practical and promising propulsion system particularly suited for heliocentric flight regimes, the majority of sailcraft missions flown to date have remained Earth...
