Face-centered cubic single-phase high-entropy alloys (HEAs) containing multi-principal transition metals have attracted significant attention, exhibiting an unprecedented combination of strength and ductility owing to their low stacking fault energy (SFE) and large misfit parameter that creates severe local lattice distortion. Increasing both stren...
This research thesis explores the transformation potential of different types of shops in the Netherlands. The outcome is a typology, of which one type was developed into a design project. / Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences

Understanding the interplay between the gut microbiome and arsenolipids can help us manage the potential health risk of consuming seafood, but little is known about the bioconversion fate of arsenolipids in the gastrointestinal tract. We use an in vitro mucosal simulator of the human intestinal microbial ecosystem (M-SHIME) to mimic the digestive t...
The availability of the genomic sequence of the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae has in recent years sparked the development of transgenic technologies with the potential to be used as novel vector control tools. These technologies rely on genome editing that confer traits able to affect vectorial capacity. This can be achieved by either reducing...

Calcium looping based on alternation between uptake and release of CO2 is a promising technology for hightemperature CO2 capture. In this study, CaO sorbents were obtained from different precipitated CaCO3 precursors. Two additives, cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and triblock copolymer (P123), were used to modify CaCO3 precursors. Physical ...
Halobenzoquinones (HBQs) are highly toxic disinfection byproducts (DBPs) and are also precursors of other DBPs such as trihalomethanes (THMs). The formation of THMs from HBQs during chlorine-only and UV/chlorine processes with or without bromide was investigated experimentally. Density functional theory (DFT) reactivity descriptors were also applie...
