Noffke, Deborah (author)The problem of global warming is becoming every day more and more pressing, leading to the necessity of reducing harmful emissions especially in the shipping sector. Most ships sail with Internal Combustion Engines, reason why it is beneficial to keep using this system, with the prospect of being able, though, to cut down on the emissions. This...master thesis 2024

Hsu, Sing-Chi (author)Magnetometers are widely equipped in smartphones. They measure the direction and the magnitude of the magnetic field of the environment. Since the measurements are not transition data, there is no drift when estimating position and orientation using a magnetometer. Furthermore, magnetic field localization using magnetometers requires no extra...master thesis 2024

de Weerd, Jeltes (author)Over recent decades, global emissions have surged, raising environmental concerns. Academics have developed models to predict transport patterns, regional sensitivities, and global impacts. This research addresses gaps in understanding global civil aviation emissions by enhancing the accuracy of current models, particularly during climb and...master thesis 2024

Piera, Hielke (author)A decades-long steady rise in air movements has disproportionally impacted airport-neighbouring communities. These communities bear the brunt of the aviation industry's air, and noise pollution, detrimental to their livelihood. Airports near densely populated areas face increasing societal and governmental scrutiny to reduce their noise...master thesis 2024

Dekker, Joris (author)Urbanisation has increased the worlds' cities populations and influenced the living conditions within these cities. Temperatures rise, the air becomes more polluted and noise levels increase. It has been proven that types of vegetation such as plants and trees can reduce the negative effects of urbanisation by for instance cooling cities,...master thesis 2024

Ketelaar, Bas (author)Artificial intelligence has a strong need for faster and more energy-efficient solutions, especially for computation performed at the sensor edge. On-chip photonic neural networks (PNNs) offer a promising solution for high speeds and energy efficiency. A less explored side of PNNs is their application to time-series data, which is often the case...master thesis 2024

Hagen, Koen (author)As data centers worldwide consume more power than ever, lowering the energy consumption of software is increasingly important. Software energy testing is often unclear due to a lack of comparable baselines. In this paper, we look at the use of regression testing to alleviate some of the struggles with energy testing. We introduce E-Compare, a...master thesis 2024

van der Ree, Chris (author)There is a growing demand of various metals originating from the sustainable energy transition. The current supply and investments plans for these critical minerals are insufficient to enable this green energy transition. Other problems are the dependency of third countries and multiple drawbacks of land-mining. Deep-sea mining could be a great...master thesis 2024
