As airborne wind energy is a relatively new field, much of the current research is rapidly progressing towards the development of larger commercial systems with larger airborne components. Farms of airborne wind energy systems can provide higher power generation than a single kite system and offer a potential solution to issues that single kite...

Quasi-Normal Modes (QNMs) are a key concept in reduced-order models. In this thesis, we use Finite-Difference approach to create a discretized model of an open electromagnetic system in order to identify its QNMs and the Perfectly Matched Layer (PML) modes. We develop a structure of the QNMs and the PML modes and identify different regions of...

DNA aligning is a compute-intensive and time-consuming task required for all further DNA processing. It consists in finding for each DNA string from a sample its location in a reference genome. Usual techniques for short reads (hundreds of bases) involve seed-extension, where a small matching seed is found with quick search through FM-index and...

Indonesia is currently facing a housing deficit of 15 million units. In order to try and resolve this problem, 800.000 units of formal housing are being build every year and the most popular typology in this fast growing housing market is the Indonesian housing cluster. The goal within this project is to do a redesign of the housing cluster...

In this study, a data-driven, generic and transfer-based methodology for separation and ranking the PTNs has been put forward. With the hierarchy of a network, this is beneficiary for the management and operation of operators for focusing on the higher level network layer and in turn provide better service for passengers. The study introduces...

The concept of business model innovation (BMI) has taken off significantly over the last decade in the academic as well as the business environment. It is seen as an important source of competitive advantage and is increasingly being used to achieve superior firm performance. Nevertheless, the field is yet to embrace the organizational dimension...

Personalising patient education is an important aspect that is needed for patients to become active in decision making and their treatment. Standardised methods are not enough and personalisation can make an improvement in healthcare by focussing more on the patient. This report focusses on patient education at the Albert Schweitzer Hospital...

Nearly all major glaciers in Greenland have reduced in size over the last two decades. An increase in the amount of ice transported from the Greenland ice sheet to the oceans is predicted following an increase in Arctic air and ocean temperatures. One of the last glaciers with a floating ice shelf and draining a substantial area of the Greenland...

The technological advances of the last decades eventually have led to systems with growing complexity. As a consequence, the task of supervising their condition has become increasingly challenging. Especially for the case of turbocharged diesel engines, this task is even more difficult due to the interaction of the turbocharger with the engine....

In this research, a new measuring method to detect shear parameters in fluid mud is proposed, namely using shear waves, or S-waves opposed to the conventional pressure waves, or P-waves. Currently, detecting fluid mud is done by the use of P-waves. This paper shows that conventional P-waves velocity measurements are unsuitable for linking...

Huge amounts of log data are generated every day by software. These data contain valuable information about the behavior and the health of the system, which is rarely exploited, because of their volume and unstructured nature. Manually going through log files is a time-consuming and labor-intensive procedure for developers. Nonetheless logging...

Shear tension failure in thin-webbed prestressed concrete elements is yet to be predicted in an accurate manner. The analytical method uses assumptions to simplify the theory. This makes it less accurate. The calculated resistance to web-shear cracking is based on the principle tensile stress reaching the tensile strength of concrete. Failing in...

With the rapidly growing service economy, firms must address the fundamental needs of the customers to sustain their competitive advantage. The role of the customer is being increasingly stressed by both academia and practice. However, an important implication from this is to make a distinction between the business customer and the general...

The hot water produced from a geothermal doublet possesses energy, which once utilized, the water cools down and is re-introduced back into the same reservoir at a sufficient distance using an injector well. As cold water flows through the reservoir, it acquires thermal energy from surrounding in-situ rocks. This process recurs until a...

Given its geographical location and history, water defense is of utmost importance for the Netherlands. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) offers a promising approach for system identification of hydraulic structures in this water defense system. The aim of SHM is to set sensors on structures and use the monitored responses to identify...
