Influence of partial glycerides on the micorstructural development and breakdown of crystallized fats Ghent University
To control the macroscopic properties of fat-based foods, thorough understanding of the underlying mechanisms and kinetics of microstructure development and breakdown is needed. It will be investigated how partial glycerides affect crystallization of different fat systems. Cryo-SEM methodologies will be developed to reveal the microstructure of the fat crystal networks. Finally, relationships between microstructure and its breakdown will be ...

Investigation of reliability aspects of STT-MRAM magnetic memory cells. KU Leuven
In this thesis, the impact of self-heating on the reliability of the emerging STT-MRAM memory technology is studied. Memory devices are necessary to ensure the performance of computational electronic devices. In conventional memory devices, the performance is improved through scaling of the device dimensions. Increasingly multi-functional portable electronic devices demand a continued performance improvement at decreasing power densities. ...
The development of a care pathway in youth care for children and young people with (complex) emotional and behavioral disorders Ghent University
Children and young people with (complex) emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) are at the intersection between different "sectors" in youth care (VAPH, Agentschap Opgroeien, GGZ).
Despite efforts in the past to come to a more performant treatment and intersectoral cooperation (youth care networks, decree "Integrale Jeugdhulp", GES+, ...) youth care services indicate doubts related to how to deal with the children and young people ...

Combining plasma treatment and (photo)catalysis towards an energy-efficient technology for abatement of polluted air (COP-CAT) Ghent University
Plasma treatment is a technology for the breakdown of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from contaminated air. By combining it with oxidation catalysis and photocatalysis, we overcome a number of its limitations and unite the advantages of the three technologies. This synergy should lead to an energy-efficiënt and complete breakdown of VOCs for many applications.
