Dosimetric and Biological Validation of a Proton Therapy Research Line using a Murine-Based Phantom

During pre-clinical research on proton therapy, validating the dosimetry is important for accurate and representable results. To ensure that research outcomes can eventually be implemented in clinical practices, it is equally as important to also take biological effects into account. The aim of this thesis was, therefore, to dosimetrically and...

Modelling and analysis of dynamic relations and trade-offs between security and efficiency in airport security operations

The two performance areas “security” and “efficiency” in airport security operations cannot be analyzed apart from each other, since influencing one has a large impact on the other. In this research agent-based modelling is used to analyze dynamic relations and trade-offs between security and efficiency within airport security operations....

COAT4Housing: Flexible air permeability combined with flexible sun shading equals complete control

This report answers a research question. This main <br/>research question of this report is: How can an extra<br/>shell of fabric improve the gallery flat, Bosboom-Toussaintplein<br/>in Delft, on both its comfort and its energy<br/>performance? A design is made using an extra fabric<br/>shell for the gallery flat.<br/>The methodology chosen for...

Thermal modelling of Selective Laser Melting: A semi-analytical approach

Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is a 3D-printing method to produce metal parts. In SLM a part is manufactured layer-by-layer by selectively melting a metal powder with a laser. Although SLM is a promising process for the production of high-quality parts, the implementation in high-tech industry is held back by a few barriers. One of the main...

Developing and evaluating a model for Surfactant-Foam Flooding

Many reservoirs are considered unsuitable candidates for Enhanced Oil Recovery. Surfactant-Foam flooding, also referred to as Low-Tension-Gas flooding, could be a solution to enhance the oil recovery in tight, saline or high temperature reservoirs. SF-flooding combines reduction of the oil-water interfacial tension by surfactant, with mobility...

Reservoir characterization of the Upper Slochteren Sandstone by integration of core data

In this Bsc-thesis the thin-sections of the Uithuizermeeden-1A well are studied on mineral content and diagenetic changes with a Leica polarisation microscope and digital camera. Photo’s that have been taken are bundled together in a photo book which can be of use as study material. During Middle and Late Permian times the Netherlands became...

Interaction of Lines

The main focus of my MSc3 was based upon an interest in a subject I couldn’t specify at the beginning of my project. It was an abstract subject to research, a lot became clear during the process of research in Odessa. The phenomena of the infrastructural lines in between the city and its harbor and the actual encounters of the city towards the...
