van Nass, A.F. (author)We helped archaeological research by analysing, using X-Ray μ-computed tomography (μ-CT) and X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) data, three antique glass beads found in a cremation burial in Amersfoort. The μ-CT scans provided detailed information about the shape of the beads and their shaft and about the internal structure of the beads. Bubbles and...bachelor thesis 2017

Broeksma, R.E. (author)Several methods are used to measure fracture plane orientation. For these measurements manual, photogrammetric and laser scanning methods are in use. The latter method is used in this thesis to survey the geometry of an outcrop of the Devonian Condroz Sandstone Group in southern Belgium.The aim of this thesis is to develop a method with which...bachelor thesis 2016

Louwerse, D. (author)The aim of this thesis is to describe the rare earth element (REE) occurrences, reserves and resources in Brazil and India and to investigate future potentiality of these deposits and any other potential REE resources in South America. This report is completely based on literature studies, no experiments or fieldwork were carried out. Firstly,...bachelor thesis 2016

Glasbergen, T. (author)The aim of this research is to determine the effect of different fines contents on the strength of sand-fines mixtures. This was done with experimental research on mixed samples of sand and fines. The shear strength parameters of a soil can be determined in the laboratory primarily with two types of tests, either a direct shear test or a...bachelor thesis 2015

Koops, M. (author)Foam is a promising means of increasing sweep efficiency in enhanced oil recovery processes where gas is injected into a reservoir. However, the effectiveness of foam is hard to predict due to its complex behavior. Therefore accurate modeling is important to effectively predict field performance. This requires correct foam parameters in...bachelor thesis 2015

Doff, J.M. (author)The goals of this thesis were to understand the impact of uncertainties and modeling methods on the resulting stress and strain patterns and to see how 3D stress patterns can be linked to what was seen in the field. In 3 types of models simulations were done to carry out this goal. These are the 2D perturbation model, the 2D static model, and...bachelor thesis 2015

Van der Waal, K.T. (author)Bentonite is a clay that is used in many industrial applications. Company X required an investigation on the bentonite that is mined by Company Y. Currently Company X produces cat litter only from her bentonite, but other applications might be of economical interest to the company. After scoping down to 4 applications other than cat litter ...bachelor thesis 2014

Amin, A. (author)This research focuses on the analyze of the heterogeneity of the Groningen gas field, i.e. characterization of the reservoir rock and the sealing Zechstein salt on top of the reservoir, by modeling the rock properties of the formations. The aim of this study is twofold, namely to characterize the thickness, shale content and porosity of the...bachelor thesis 2014

Van Toorenenburg, R.W. (author)This project investigated the occurrence of compartmentalization by claystone interbeds and its impact on connectivity in the fluvial units of the Triassic Argilo-Gréseux Supérieur (TAGS) formation in the Toual field, Algeria. The TAGS is located in a N-S oriented anticline, with faults part of a flower structure acting as hydrocarbon migration...bachelor thesis 2014

Pennekamp, M.F. (author)Bihar is a densely populated area located in the Middle Ganga Plain (MGP) in India. The Ganges' sinuous nature in the MGP created a vast amount of point bar structures within the floodplain. In 2003 it was discovered that high arsenic concentrations are present in the shallow groundwater aquifers, especially in the elevated point bars. According...bachelor thesis 2014

Markesteijn, M. (author)The copper grade in the Aitik mine in northern Sweden is decreasing, therefore other deposits are investigated. One of these deposits is the satellite deposit discussed in this thesis. The grade of this deposit is higher than in Aitik and could thus be used to increase the copper production at the Aitik mine site. The goal of this thesis is to...bachelor thesis 2014

Van der Woude, T.I.S. (author)A 9-component seismic cone penetration test (SCPT) was conducted at a site near Delft. A sledge hammer striking horizontally a wooden plate was used to generate shear (S) waves polarized in the crossline and inline directions. A vertical hammer hitting a metal plate generated the P wave. The data were acquired using a recently developed array (7...bachelor thesis 2014

Althuis, K.Y. (author)The fracture patterns in an outcrop of the Alima anticline in central Tunusia is investigated. A 3D model of the outcrop is made in Photoscan. The fractures are digitized in 3D using OpenPlot software. OpenPlot can automatically calculate the orientation of every fracture. The length has to be calculated in Excel. Stereonet is used for further...bachelor thesis 2014

Pengel, A.S. (author)The characteristics of natural fracture systems is very valuable information when considering exploiting a fractured subsurface oil /gas reservoir. Open fractures are like highways for fluid flow and knowing the orientation, length and intensity of these fractures will greatly improve the accuracy of fluid flow models. Linking fracture...bachelor thesis 2014
