SRP-Groeifinanciering: A system identification framework for multi-fidelity modelling Vrije Universiteit Brussel
In practice, everything in thermodynamics and fluid mechanics is to some extent unsteady, turbulent, and/or nonlinear. FLOW has developed a strong expertise in using high-fidelity numerical and experimental techniques to study these complex phenomena. However, high-fidelity techniques are often too computationally ...

The main object of the research is the analysis of the Epicurean position towards politics, as a doctrine, and towards effective political action.

Why then, did early modern title pages regularly name women-led businesses as their place of production? This dissertation investigates how women participated in the production and sale of rare books and ...
