End zone design and detailing of pre-tensioned concrete elements KU Leuven
Optimisation of building elements towards more efficient and sustainable use of materials is an ever present drive for innovation within an industry. In order to achieve an optimised design for a building element, a detailed knowledge of the construction materials, structural behaviour, manufacturing process and design process are important.
This thesis focusses on the design of end-zone detailing of pre-tensioned elements. Even though ...
Towards an Improved Understanding and Numerical Simulation of Wave and Sediment Dynamics in the Shoaling Zone KU Leuven
Coastal regions worldwide are popular destinations for human beings to live, work and recreate, yet they are widely threatened by erosion and flood risks associated with sea rise and severe storms. The understanding and both short and long-term predictions with numerical simulations of nearshore hydro- and morphodynamics remain thus essential in helping the policy makers to ensure coastal safety and develop cost-effective protection ...

An important part of these management plans are the search zones, which indicate the zones to be protected from pressures in order to realise nature ...
Mechanisms of triggers and substrate of ventricular tachycardia in the myocardial infarction border zone KU Leuven
Sudden death because of abnormal electrical activity of the heart is an important complication in patients who suffered a heart attack. The clogging of the blood vessel during an attack will leave a part of the heart damaged. The scar that replaces the lost heart tissue cannot maintain the normal heartbeat and the other cells in the heart will grow and adapt to maintain the heartbeat. Between this living tissue and the scar is a border zone. ...
