Singh, A. (author)Conventional computing systems involve physically separated storing and processing units. To perform the processing, data is shuttled from the storing unit to the processing unit followed by the actual processing, and the processed data is shuttled back into the storing unit. Unfortunately, this data shuffling contributes significantly to the...doctoral thesis 2024

Best, Ivo (author)This masters thesis investigates the influence of various printing parameters on the shape memory effect of 3D printed objects, with a focus on fixity and recovery rates. Through a series of experimental tests, it was observed that printing temperature had minimal impact on fixity and recovery rates. However, correlations were identified between...master thesis 2024

Henkes, Casper (author)From formal hardware models to programming language implementations concurrency is everywhere. While there has been a lot of work done on verifying concurrent systems a large part of it is focused on SC. In practice, it is more common to encounter weak memory models for which the techniques developed for SC do not work. There exists previous...master thesis 2024

Regina Tania Tan, Regina (author)The paper investigates the social production of space in Taman Anggrek Mall, a luxury mixed-use superblock built in 1996 in Jakarta, Indonesia, through social media narratives. Once the largest mall and home to the first ice rink in Southeast Asia, Taman Anggrek Mall was designed to embody modernity and the consumerist middle-class of 1990s...student report 2024

Stražinska, K. (author)Despite nearly three decades having passed since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Soviet-era housing remains a significant component of major cities’ housing stocks. Often perceived as outdated and socially stigmatized, these housing estates surpass their intended lifespan, leading to difficulties in maintenance and renovation. In this study,...student report 2024

Dijkstra, Bas (author)This research investigates the challenges a user faces in the activation step in shape-changing products. First, previous research on the topic of 4DP is reviewed and important factors are described. Namely, activation temperature, print temperature, print speed, and layer height have a signifi cant impact on the shrinkage...master thesis 2024

Saveur, Tom (author)The promotion of desirable behaviours, such as socially appropriate or health-promoting actions, can be bolstered through a deeper understanding and awareness of the values that underpin the associated behavioural choices. Various implementations for promoting behaviour change based on goals already exist in Human-Robot Interaction, but, since...master thesis 2024

Shahroodi, T. (author)Modern applications like Genomics and Machine Learning (ML) hold the potential to reshape our understanding of diseases’ genetic origins and guide machines in executing tasks and making predictions without our explicit programming. The successful, widespread integration of these modern applications can usher in advancements in di-agnostics,...doctoral thesis 2024

Nijhuis, Max (author)This study investigates the integration of shape memory materials into bolster systems to enhance automotive seating design efficiency. By bridging the gap between morphing materials and seat ergonomics, it proposes a shape memory-based bolster adjustability system. Validation is achieved through the development of a working prototype, offering...master thesis 2024

Chakraborty, S.S. (author), Krishna, Shankara Narayanan (author), Mathur, Umang (author), Pavlogiannis, Andreas (author)Weak-memory models are standard formal specifications of concurrency across hardware, programming languages, and distributed systems. A fundamental computational problem is consistency testing: is the observed execution of a concurrent program in alignment with the specification of the underlying system? The problem has been studied...journal article 2024

Liu, Q. (author), Ghodrat, S. (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)Conventional hinge actuators often face limitations including excessive weight, large size and unpleasant noise. Shape memory alloys (SMAs) offer a solution to address these issues due to their favorable characteristics, such as lightweight, high actuation force and small form factor. However, most existing SMA-based hinge actuators rely on...journal article 2024

(author)Macrophages are key regulators in bone repair and regeneration. Recent studies have shown that long-term epigenetic changes and metabolic shifts occur during specific immune training of macrophages that affect their functional state, resulting in heightened (trained) or reduced (tolerant) responses upon exposure to a second stimulus. This is...journal article 2024
