Modeling and optimization of a sink-float separator incorporating a pulsation flow system for plastic separation using Computational Fluid Dynamics KU Leuven
In recent years, the European Union has given priority to a number of actions to work towards a more sustainable use of plastics and a new strategy was developed with recycling very high up on the agenda. A common technique for the separation of plastics with different densities is by gravity separation in a sink-float separator. The fraction to be separated is dropped at the inlet into a bath containing a solution or a suspension. Materials ...
Mathematical and Computational Modeling of Metallic Biomaterials Biodegradation KU Leuven
A validated computational model of the degradation process can facilitate tuning of biodegradation properties and optimizing the design for specific applications. In this study, we have developed a mathematical and computational model to predict the biodegradation behavior of biodegradable metallic biomaterials, focusing on Mg. Our developed model captures the release of metallic ions, changes in pH, the formation of a protective film, the ...
The mystery of instruction following: Computational modeling and EEG studies Ghent University
People can implement without effort instructions that are typically completely novel (e.g., “Please give me the blue cup”). How they do so, is still a mystery. In the current project this will be addressed from a conceptual framework that has not been used for this purpose, called binding by synchrony. Binding by synchrony has proven very fruitful in the perception and attention literatures. Binding by synchrony entails that elements (e.g., ...
Computational Modeling of Social Cognition and associated Deficits by means of Artificial Neural Networks KU Leuven
T-EX: Technology-based exercise protocols for knee osteoarthritis: A computational modeling framework combined with wearable technology, to support patient-specific exercise protocols in knee OA patients. KU Leuven
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common chronic joint disease, for which no cure exists to reverse or stop progression. Joint loading plays an important role in cartilage homeostasis and therefore atypical joint loading is known to accelerate OA progression. Patientspecific exercise protocols, aiming to restore typical joint loading during daily life activities, therefore, holds the potential to slow down OA progression. We will leverage the ...
