FWO sabbatical bench fee professor Finke Ghent University
The focus of my sabbatical leave is to increase the process coverage of my soil development model SoilGen by implementing functionality that (i)
was designed by my PhD-students and myself and (ii) has been developed by researchers at the SLU in Sweden. This will increase the application
domain of SoilGen so that both physical and chemical protection of soil organic matter (SOM) is simulated by the model. Hereto, in addition ...

fdi
1) Lay the foundation for a monograph on imprecision in probability theory.
2) Finalise current research on tree transformations, non-binary choice/preference models, and their connection with a propositional
logic of desirability statements.
3) Initialise research on alternative characterisations of imprecise Schnorr randomness, and on algorithms for ...
Transcriptome analysis on tissues of Pietrain pigs fed with diet of higher fiber-rich byproduct. KU Leuven
Byproduct is a secondary product derived from a production or manufacturing process that can be of animal, cereals, vegetable, etc origin. Byproducts are higher in fiber and lower in starch and monosacharides (Lackey, 2010) and are variable in composition and nutrient digestibility (Pahm et al. 2008). Gondret et al. ( 2014) observed a lower fat content in the musculus longissimus dorsi of gilts fed a high fiber diet. Partanen et al. (2007) ...

Essays on the impact of mandatory audit fee disclosure on the market for audit services KU Leuven
The focus of this study is to examine consequences of mandatory audit fee disclosure on the market for audit services. More specifically, this study investigates the following questions. First, does public disclosure of audit fees impact audit pricing and competition in the audit market? We aim to provide insights into the impact of mandatory audit fee disclosure on the relationships between clients and their auditor on the one hand, and ...
Efficient Representations of Wavenumber Dependent BEM Matrices: Construction and Analysis for the 3D Scalar Helmholtz Equation KU Leuven
Scattering of waves, whether it be acoustic, electromagnetic, seismic or otherwise, is an important topic in mathematics, physics and engineering. Its study touches on several interesting domains of knowledge, including elliptic differential equations, integral equations, potential theory, geometric optics, singular and oscillatory integration and many more. Thorough understanding of the governing equations coupled with efficient simulations ...
High resolution electromagnetic landscape mapping with multi-channel FDEM instruments Ghent University
While frequency domain electromagnetic induction (FDEM) sensors are often used in soil and environmental studies, their application remains largely limited to coarse resolution surveys. Particularly in comparison to use of magnetometry or ground penetrating radar arrays that integrate multiple sensors in large setups to enable efficient large-area prospecting, the deployed survey speeds and spatial resolution obtained with FDEM lags behind. ...
