Finally finished my minor MSc-thesis (18 ECTS), A priori study of subgrid models in large-eddy simulation using direct numerical simulation of a turbulent channel flow. It is available under meteorology & study together with my other theses (BSc and MSc).

Because of a recent update of PHP (->5.3) parts of my old website were no longer working. Time for a new website! I already had this template floating around for about half a year, but never had time to finish it and always wanted to connect it to MySQL. The latter still needs to be done, but at least I've got a working website now!

The database of my old picture album (Gallery2) seems to be corrupted and as there are much nicer semi-free services like Flickr I started using that. See the weblink at the top of this page or simply click here.

The applet to plot atmospheric soundings is still available at skewtp.vanstratum.com. I once had plans to incorporate a lot of calculations to make it useful for gliding-weather predictions, but since the introduction of BLIPMAP (which has nice prognostic soundings!) I no longer have plans to invest time in this. The applet to plot (theoretical) polars of different gliders is working again, it is available at wisb.vanstratum.com/

If you are using Internet Explorer the layout may look a bit crooked. I coded this website following the W3C XHTML standards, but some fancy new CSS3 options aren't implemented yet in Internet Explorer (Micro$oft is always a bit slow... ) Try using Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari or basically.. every browser that is != Internet Explorer (theoretically it should work in IE9..)
