Polymeric Electromagnetic Metamaterials created by flow-induced Structure PRINTing. KU Leuven
The increasing miniaturization and integration of numerous components in electronic devices and the booming use of wireless technologies leads to an explosion in the amount of electromagnetic waves and resulting crosstalk. In addition, with the recent 5G mobile network, a major challenge is to enhance the range of the electromagnetic waves, which could be accomplished by suitable wave bending around obstacles. To make these upcoming ...
Uncertainty quantification of airborne time-domain electromagnetic imaging & characterisation of saltwater intrusion KU Leuven
Developing sustainable polymer based electromagnetic shields using functional coatings KU Leuven
In this thesis, the potential of cold spraying for the generation of EM shielding coatings on polymers will be investigated. Spray formulations will be developed that optimally balance superior electromagnetic shielding performance with durability during mechanical and thermal loading, good scratch resistance and adhesion, and enable a sustainable end-of-use option. Thereby, apart from more traditional metallic coating formulations, coatings ...
MSCA Doctoral Network on In-Situ Monitoring of Electromagnetic Interference KU Leuven
PhD in electromagnetic risk assessment of wireless communications KU Leuven
The electromagnetic environment is changing rapidly, increasing the chance of interference with other devices severely. While at the same time the number of wireless connections for various applications, including mission- and safety-critical applications, is also increasing. This electromagnetic environment has the chance to interfere with these wireless connections and could lead to costly or dangerous consequences in mission- and ...
Improving salinity estimation from electromagnetic data using Bayesian Evidential Learning Ghent University
Imaging the subsurface is of prime importance for many geological applications. Among geophysical
techniques, electromagnetic methods (EM) have become popular for rapidly covering large areas.
However, the solution of the inversion of EM data is not unique. In this research we are quantifying the
uncertainty of salinity estimation from EM data using a new framework called Bayesian evidential
learning.
Creating Electromagnetic Metamaterials via Flow-Induced Assembly with Static Mixers KU Leuven
For many applications, polymers have substantial advantages as compared to other materials, e.g. they are light-weight, flexible, easy to process and corrosion-resistant. Polymer nanocomposites containing functional conductive and magnetic particles have been shown to have large potential as flexible, easily processable and efficient EM shielding materials. Recently, increasing miniaturization and integration of numerous components in ...
Generalized Space-Time Electromagnetic Metamaterials (GSTEMs) KU Leuven
This project explores Generalized Space-Time Electromagnetic Metamaterials – GSTEMs –, metamaterials formed by the modulation of a host medium with arbitrary space-time profile, as one of the next potential frontiers in contemporary research. As an extension of previously reported Uniform STEMs – USTEMs – they merge general relativity and classical electrodynamics towards uncharted territories of huge scientific and technological potential. ...
Inventory and critical reviewn of international reports on health effects of exposure to extremeley low-frequency electromagnetic fields Ghent University
This study aims to identify and interpret evidence-based international review reports on
health effects of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields - at either acute, subacute or chronic exposure - and interpret them in terms of methodology used and results. In addition, specific attention should be paid to possible health effects in the vicinity of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields, the occurrence or non-occurrence ...
