Yang, Vincent (author)
This thesis investigates a container drayage problem involving terminals, depots, and shippers. Each terminal operates a homogeneous fleet of trucks that start and end at their respective terminals, carrying either one 40ft or two 20ft containers, and can make multiple trips within a single planning horizon. Terminals handle full containers and...

Dust emissions developed during the handling of dry bulk products pose increased risks for health, safety and the environment. Legislation drives bulk handling facilities to face the challenge of maintaining dust emissions within limitations. At the bulk terminal of Verbrugge multiple bulk products are handled, making the dust control problem...

The building sector's substantial environmental impact, responsible for 40% of total energy consumption and one-third of CO2 emissions globally, emphasises the urgency to enhance energy efficiency. While there are potentials for energy savings, there are still challenges that need to be faced. In particular, a significant ‘performance gap’...

The evolution of malware presents an ever-growing challenge to cybersecurity, impacting individuals, organisations, and nations alike. As malicious actors continue to adapt their tactics to bypass security measures, it becomes imperative to understand the evolutionary patterns of malware to stay ahead in the ongoing arms race between defenders...

Empirical studies indicate an increasing inclination towards the adoption of integrated software systems that contribute to project management. To this moment, studies on the implementation of these integrated software systems tended to emphasise the benefit of such software. However, the analytical evidence to support such assumptions is...

Several incidents involving the installation of temporary traffic signs by road workers have raised concerns about the effectiveness of these signs. Even in the absence of incidents, effectiveness is a relevant question, made more urgent by the incidents and the high risk of collision faced by road workers installing the signs. This paper...

Large Language Models (LLMs) have emerged as pivotal in content generation, offering profound societal impacts. Previous research has highlighted their propensity to generate content that breaches societal norms. Misuse of LLMs poses significant ethical concerns, including misinformation spread, social unrest, and political manipulation. To...

The dissertation focussed on the kind of closure methods used, in the past and at present, to repair breached dikes and to close tidal channels by simple means. By simple means one must think about the application by (mainly) manual labour of local materials and small-scale tools and equipment. The closure of tidal channels is also required in...

Because of the large uncertainties associated with rising sea levels, present coastal management is inclined towards utilizing soft, nature-inclusive, and adaptive measures over traditional hard protection structures. This shift towards more sustainable and multi-functional solutions is often called Building with Nature. In the coastal zone,...

Early-stage design of complex ships is of an iterative nature due to a coevolving problem definition and solution generation. In addition, design decisions are often made based on assumptions early on. To inform the stakeholder dialogue to support the definition of the design problem, designers need to gain insight into the technical feasibility...

Supramolecular hydrogels that are formed from low molecular weight gelators are a new class of soft materials which are gaining prominence. Depending on their molecular make up, these soft gel materials are formed based on different triggers, pH being one among them. In order to build applications with pH-triggered supramolecular gelators, it is...

Laser light reflection mitigation in Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is crucial for accurate flow<br/>field measurements. While numerous methods exist for planar PIV, fewer have been developed for volumetric PIV systems, especially for coaxial setups like Robotic PIV. Light reflections in volumetric PIV experiments result in high-intensity...

Quad-planes combine hovering and vertical takeoff and landing capability with fast and efficient forward flight. Regular Quad-planes with dedicated pusher motor can be subject to gust disturbances, and are not well-equipped to deal with actuator faults. Dual-axis Tilt-Rotor quad-planes are more maneuverable due to their overactuation. This also...

Synthetic tabular data generated by tabular generative models represent an effective means of augmenting and sharing data. It is of paramount importance to trace and audit such synthetic data, avoiding potential harms and risks associated with inappropriate usage. While watermarking techniques are increasingly used for synthetic images, little...

Decision-making in professional fields has made a stark transition away from utility as the comparative metric in neoclassical economic frameworks. The result of which means a step towards the use of non-equatable variables for calculating the comparability between material, energy, and fiscal costs. While the traditional methods have their...

Greenhouse horticulture is a key sector in the Netherlands, significantly contributing to the economy and society but also heavily reliant on natural gas, leading to substantial CO2 emissions. The sector, in partnership with the government, aims to achieve climate neutrality by 2040 as part of the Energy Transition Covenant for Greenhouse...

Over the past decades, the majority of research into coastal development has been carried out with a focus on open-sea beaches. However, sheltered beaches make up a larger part of the coastlines in the world. Recent studies have shown that the system of sheltered beaches cannot be approached as an open-sea beach with a lower wave energy climate....

In developing countries with increased industrialization, much research is carried out in order to recover the maximum ammonium from the environment. One of the methods to recover ammonium is Bipolar Membrane Electrodialysis (BPMED), a chemical-free technology that enables recovery and purification of the corresponding acid and base by the...

In the upcoming years more train passengers are expected and with more trains on the tracks railway systems require greater resilience. Switches can play a major role during disruptions as they enable trains to be rerouted onto other tracks, allowing them to bypass the disruption but switches also facilitate overtaking, meet-pass operations at...

The congestion of orbits around the Earth, particularly in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), necessitates the implementation of space-based Space Situational Awareness (SSA) missions. This increasing orbital congestion, driven by the proliferation of mega constellations, poses significant challenges to satellite operations and collision avoidance. In...
