. Drs Ing JMM Bruijnen, MSc -John Bruijnen is a Hydrogen Safety Assurance Engineer within the Dutch Armed Forces. He has more than 30 years experience as an Operations HSE Engineer in the international energy industry with a track record on delivering HSE projects. John's expertise stems from extensive experience acquired within an International Oil and Gas Multinational where he established new methods pertaining to critical issues in safety-cases and Bow-Tie analysis to verify and improve safety standards. In the past three years he studied Hydrogen Safety Engineering in close cooperation with Dr Arief Dahoe. In his current role John supports HSE implementation plans pertaining to innovation projects within the Dutch Ministry of Defense. Ir BDW Remes, MSc - Bart Remes is in charge of the Micro Air Vehicles Laboratory (MAVlab) at Delft Univeristy of Technology and engaged with the
in close cooperation with the Dutch Armed Forces. After obtaining an MSc in Aerospace Engineering (specialism Sustainable Engineering and Technology) he established the MAVlab in 2003. He was involved in the first Dutch BVLOS flight, design and construction of various Micro Air Vehicles, such as the DelftAcopter, the DelFly II and the DelFly Micro. All these Micro Air Vehicles have won multiple awards. In 2009 and 2018, these devices were included into the Guiness Book of Records as the Smallest Camera Airplane, DelFly Micro. In 2018 the DelFly Nimble featured on the cover of the September 14 issue of the Science Magazine. Besides Flapping Wing Micro Air Vehicles, he has initiated and worked on Hybrid Air Vehicles and the design of the smallest open source autopilot in the world, the Lisa S, a 2x2 cm device, based on the Paparazzi open source software. Other projects where Bart Remes played a significant role include Dutch UAS and RoboSwift. Prof PV Aravind - Purushothaman Vellayani Aravind is the Professor of Energy Conversion at the University of Groningen and concurrently in charge of a research group at Delft University of Technology. He did his MSc thesis research at Delft University of Technology on Generation of Electricity and Heat using Biomass Gasification, Solid Oxide Fuel Cells and Micro Turbines and received his MSc degree from the University of Oldenburg (Germany). In 2007 he completed his PhD at Delft University of Technology with a thesis titled High efficiency energy systems based on biomass gasifiers, SOFCs with Ni/GDC anodes and gas turbines and thereupon continued to teach at Delft University of Technology. Prof Aravind is involved in supervision of research activities related to the development of fuel cell systems, electrochemistry of fuel oxidation at SOFC anodes, biomass gasifier / fuel cell systems, high temperature gas cleaning, and thermodynamic modelling of power plants. He teaches courses on fuel cell systems and thermodynamics of energy conversion. He supervises a group of 10 PhD students and several researchers/research students on topics related to fuel cells . He is a member of the International Energy Agency and acts as a member of the European Energy Research Alliance Joint Program on Fuel Cells and Hydrogen. Dr AE Dahoe -Arief Dahoe is an Explosion, Hydrogen Safety and Combustion Scientist. He conducts scientific investigations into problems pertaining to explosion dynamics and hydrogen safety for a clientele comprising military establishments, research institutions and industrial corporations. Dr Dahoe obtained an MSc in Chemical Engineering (specialism Particle Technology and Fluid Dynamics), and, a PhD in Explosion Dynamics (Gas and Dust Explosions) from Delft University of Technology. Thereafter he continued to apply and extend his expertise at Delft University of Technology, Cambridge University, Eindhoven University of Technology, Ulster University, the European Network of Excellence HySafe, Wageningen University, and, within the Dutch Armed Forces. His research interests are in: fire and explosion hazards of hydrogen, gas and dust explosions, simulation of explosion dynamics, application of mitigation technologies, decay of turbulence in transient flows, specific forms of turbulent combustion modelling pertaining to gas and dust explosions, turbulence modification in the gas phase by a dispersed phase consisting of small particles, thermobaric weapons, nuclear weapons, flame retardants, application of pulsed electric fields to microbial food safety, and, the Applied Mathematics of Explosions (tensor analysis, least-squares gradient reconstruction in conjunction with stiff time integration). Dr Dahoe is the creator of World's First Higher Educational Program in Hydrogen Safety (i.e. the MSc in Hydrogen Safety Engineering) and he coordinates the development of the International Curriculum on Hydrogen Safety Engineering654 kB for the European Commission.
