Huisman, A.E. (author)In dit project worden vier vereenvoudigingen van de trebuchet onderzocht. Er wordt gekeken naar het rendement met betrekking tot de energie overdracht van het zware tegengewicht op het afgeschoten voorwerp. De invloed van het toevoegen van extra armen en wielen wordt onderzocht. Bij meer energie overdracht kan het voorwerp verder weg geschoten...bachelor thesis 2020

Knoppert, Daan (author)In 2019 werd er voor het eerst een foto van een zwart gat gepubliceerd. Het betreffende super zware zwarte gat ligt in het midden van het sterrenstelsel Messier 87. In dit onderzoek willen we simulaties maken van hoe een foto van een zwart gat eruit ziet. Zowel voor een achtergrond (zoals de sterrenhemel) als de accretieschijf die eromheen zit....bachelor thesis 2020

Analikwu, Brendan (author)In this thesis, an algorithm to model the magnetic perturbation field caused by ships is designed and implemented. A systematic description of methods used for modelling the magnetic signature of ships is given. The algorithm fits coefficients of a prolate spheroidal harmonic expansion of the scalar potential of the magnetic field using a least...bachelor thesis 2020

Bosma, Jan (author)The first part of this thesis provides a mathematical description for bipartite quantum correlations, aiming to analyze the geometry of several sets of correlations. We explain why quantum entanglement can be used to simulate shared randomness: C<sub>loc</sub>(Γ) ⊆ C<sub>q</sub><sup>d</sup>(Γ) for a sufficiently large d. The known bound for this...bachelor thesis 2020

Gangapersad, Ravish (author)In this report, our goal is to find a way to get some information such as the mean out of high dimensional densities. If we want to calculate the mean we need to calculate integrals, which are difficult to do for high dimensional densities. We cannot use the analytical or classical (deterministic) numerical rules for high dimensional problems...bachelor thesis 2020

Heijnders, Tom (author)In dit verslag wordt het gedrag van een dief die huizen besteelt wiskundig bekeken. Het dievenspel is de aanleiding van dit verslag. In dit spel bepaalt een dief zijn optimale strategie voor het bestelen van één huis uit verschillende huizen met verschillende waarden. Daarnaast is er een agent die op zoek is naar zijn optimale strategie om de...bachelor thesis 2020

Nijensteen, Ilse (author)In this thesis, a model for air flow and temperature in urban areas is studied. In particular, the influence of vegetation in a street canyon is investigated. This includes the effect of vegetation on air flow and the cooling property of vegetation to lower temperature in street canyons. Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations with vegetation...bachelor thesis 2020

van den Berg, M.R. (author)In dit verslag bekijken we zes topologische tegenvoorbeelden. Eerst bestuderen we de topologie van Appert. Deze topologie is gedefinieerd op een aftelbare verzameling, maar heeft overaftelbaar veel open verzamelingen. In de ruimte van Appert zijn de triviale rijtjes de enige rijtjes die convergeren. De ruimte is separabel, maar voldoet niet aan...bachelor thesis 2020

Budko, Ariena (author)In this paper the research behind the parallelization on the GPU of the time parallel time integration method Parareal. Firstly, the theory behind Parareal and its convergence theorems will be detailed. Then, two test models, the Lorenz system and Heat diffusion equation, will be introduced. Additionally, the derivation of the Forward Euler and...bachelor thesis 2020

Sindy, F. (author)In this thesis the water motion and sediment dynamics are investigated in a periodically closed and opened estuary. The water motion in an estuary is mainly driven by the semi-diurnal tide with an period of 12h25m and river discharge. An example of such an estuary is the Ems-Dollard estuary. Recent observations show an increase in tidal range ...bachelor thesis 2020

Husanović, Selma (author)A common tool for exploring the space of phylogenetic networks is applying rearrangement moves, such as <i>tail moves</i>. Recently, it has been shown by Janssen et al that, given a rooted binary phylogenetic network, it is possible to generate any other alternative network, using only tail moves. The aim of this report is to translate this...bachelor thesis 2020

Borsboom, Silvester (author)This thesis investigates two types of classical capacities of both classical and quantum channels, giving rise to four different settings. The first type of classical capacity investigated is the ordinary capacity of a channel to transmit classical information with a probability of error which becomes arbitrarily small as the channel is used...bachelor thesis 2020

Weerheim, M.W. (author)Complex quantum systems, such as a quantum computer, will always be coupled in some way to the environment. This can cause what's called decoherence, a destructive process by which information is lost from the system into the environment. In this bachelor thesis paper, we discuss decoherence-free subspaces within networks of coupled quantum...bachelor thesis 2020

van Laarhoven, Menno (author)The concept of entanglement is one of the distinguishing features in quantum mechanics. Information about one particle can determine the state of another particle. This information and entanglement in subsystems is quantified by the entanglement entropy. The entanglement entropy has become an important research topic in recent years....bachelor thesis 2020

Roelvink, Y. (author)In this report, we will focus on simulating galaxy observations with the Deep Spectroscopic High-redshift Mapper (DESHIMA). To do so, we will discuss and evaluate two main parts needed to accurately perform such a simulation:<br/><br/>Firstly, we will answer the question whether Time-dependent End-to-end Model for Post-process Optimization ...bachelor thesis 2020

Voskamp, R. (author)Mankind has always adapted materials to fullfil a need. Recent developments in nano-science allows us to construct objects with varying permittivity and permeability. One possible structure is an invisibility cloak device. This device is put around an object. Any plane wave that enters the cloak should go around this object. The wave exits the...bachelor thesis 2020

Wasei, E.A.A. (author)Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) are a new class of numerical methods for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) that have been very promising. In this paper, four different implementations will be tested and compared. These include: the original PINN functional with equal weights for the interior and boundary loss, the same...bachelor thesis 2020

Rang, J. (author)In recent years the importance of sum of squares and semidefinte pro-gramming has been seen in the field of combinatorial optimisation. Alllinear programs can be rewritten into a semidefinte one and by usinghierarchies of semidefinite programs these can be solved for polynomialoptimisation problems. Recently, in 2019, A.A. Ahmadi and A....bachelor thesis 2020
