Climate Adaptation in the Built Environment: A hollistic approach to barriers in the climate adaptation process

Let’s play outside: Children’s safety in the Swedish Million Program

The main research question of this paper is “How do concepts about urban planning stemming from the Swedish Million Program relate to children’s safety in Tensta nowadays?” This question will be answered through literature research on the history and critiques of the Swedish Million Program, site visits and interviews with residents in Tensta,...

Quantum Annealing for Seismic Imaging: Exploring Quantum Annealing Possibilities For Residual Statics Estimation using the D-Wave Advantage System and Hybrid Solver

Recent developments in quantum annealing have shown promising results in logistics, life sciences, machine learning and more. However, in the field of geophysical sciences the applications have been limited. A quantum annealing application was developed for residual statics estimation. Residual statics estimation is a highly non-linear problem...

The influence of concrete printed lost formwork on the load bearing capacity of a column

Concrete columns, in almost every shape, can be created by concrete printing. The formwork will be printed and subsequently filled with traditional concrete. Within this research, the influence of concrete printed formwork on the load bearing capacity of a printed column is determined. The research is performed on a small concrete column, from...

Steering towards Stiffness: A preliminary analysis method for local deformations in a yacht structure caused by wave-induced loads

The superyacht industry faces an increasing trend of larger dimensions, more open spaces, larger hull openings and more exotic shapes. This puts more effort on the structural design and especially for superyacht longitudinal stiffness is important, since the luxurious interior and delicate systems installed in a superyachts are not allowed to...

Flood defenses Washington D.C.

The United States of America have a safety standard for flood protection of 1/100 year. However the flood protections in the Washington D.C. do not comply with this requirement. During this study the levees in Washington D.C. area were analysed and it was found, that in order to comply with the 1/100 safety standard the levees in the...

Posits als vervanging van floating-points: Een vergelijking van Unum Type III Posits met IEEE 754 Floating Points met Mathematica en Python

In dit verslag worden de resultaten van literatuuronderzoek naar de voor- en<br/>nadelen van floats en posits gepresenteerd. Naar aanleiding van de resultaten is de hypothese opgesteld dat posits een goede "drop-in replacement" zouden zijn voor floats vanwege het grotere bereik, de afwezigheid van overflow en underflow en omdat ze enkel één NaN...
