Dynamische ruimtelijke vakwerkconstructies (Dynamic Space Frame Structure)

New generations of architecture are developing themselves towards dynamic and interactive designs. The graduation project is a first step in concretizing this conceptual future image by researching on possibilities of making space frames dynamic. The project has been approached from a practical point of view, striving for structural and...

Separation of Freeway Traffic Flows by Dynamic Lane Assignment

This thesis deals with separation of freeway traffic using dynamic lane assignment, based on ones destination; either or not to the next downstream exit. At freeway exits a high amount of lane changes lead to capacity reduction. Furthermore, when the flow to the exit exceeds the exit capacity (like at an IKEA on Sundays) a queue will form that...

Development of a dynamic ice-skate

Since the introduction of the klapskate it seems there is not much improvement going on in ice-skates. Nothing is further from the truth. This is specifically for the ice-skates used in short track skating which are bend in the direction of the corner to gain more grip. Several researches showed that the process of bending is difficult to master...

Dynamic Intelligent Algorithm for Navigation (DIANa): A Route Finding System using Historical Traffic Data

Traffic congestion has been one of the major problems in our everyday life. It has caused billions and billions of dollars including loss of productivity in our everyday life. Many institutions, governmental organizations, and academics have tried to come up with many initiatives and solutions to minimize congestion. Our research on dynamic...

Dynamic Port Planning under Competition: Development of a tool for strategic investment planning

Since the container revolution in the mid-sixties and the scale increase it caused, seaports face changing technological developments and economic circumstances. Terminal operators and port authorities have to deal with an increasing number of uncertainties. Especially in container transport competition plays a major role. Containers have a...
