Software testing is important to make sure that code works as intended. Traditionally, this verification process has relied on manual testing, which is not only time-consuming but also susceptible to human errors. Through the use of automated test case generation techniques, we can automate this process and reduce the time and effort needed to...

Induced seismicity refers to seismic events (earthquakes) triggered by human activities. Such events, even when characterized by relatively modest magnitudes, have the potential to jeopardize the safety of individuals, the surrounding environment, and infrastructure. <br/><br/>Production from hydrocarbon reservoirs can alter the in-situ stress...

This study focuses on enhancing the performance and reliability of piezoelectric bistable vibration energy harvesters. The research systematically classifies and evaluates different design strategies, aiming to maximize power density through strategic stress manipulation. Five designs are selected for optimization using a finite element model...

This report presents a hybrid model- and data-based method for detecting and isolating faults in the ink channel of a printer using the self-sensing capability of piezo actuators. Grey-box system identification is used to identify the parameters of the model of the ink channel. The model is used to construct the fault detection (FD) filter. The...

To stay on track for the 1.5°C pathway of the Paris Agreement, an accelerated energy transition is essential. Efficient offshore energy infrastructure planning, incorporating novel methods, is crucial and requires transparent, industry-wide discussion. However, two main challenges emerge: (i) the often-overlooked integration of energy islands in...

We will study the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients of the modular double of the quantum group Uq(sl(2, R)). This will be done by studying and taking a good look at how B. Ponsot and J. Teschner showed how to compute the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients [1]. Moreover, we will also take an introductory look at the concept of quantum groups by looking at...

The loss of an upper limb significantly impacts an individual's life, directly affecting their ability to perform activities of daily living. Prosthetic devices play a crucial role in aiding amputees' rehabilitation in society, primarily driven by advancements in externally powered prostheses. Although prosthetic devices on the market offer...

Drag reduction in ships is a key approach to decreasing their energy consumption. Besides saving fuel costs, it also decreases greenhouse gas emissions. One of the most promising techniques for drag reduction in ships is air lubrication, which reduces drag due to friction. Despite its great potential, application of air lubrication in the...

With fluctuating market demands, the tugboat industry confronts the challenge of adapting its supply chain to meet customer customisation needs while managing low order predictability. This study examines the shift from a Make-to-Stock (MTS) to three alternative production configurations based on the Assemble-to-Order (ATO) and Make-to-Order ...

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common tachyarrhythmia in the heart. Irregular RR intervals and the absence of a P wave before the QRS complex characterize AF. Although many studies have been done to detect atrial fibrillation, many aspects of this intricate disease need further analysis. AF is often diagnosed by the interpretation of multi...

The spin of a single electron or hole provides an attractive candidate for implementing a quantum bit when confined in a semiconductor quantum dot. Such a spin qubit is characterized by long coherence and short gate times. High-fidelity single and two-qubit operations have been demonstrated as well. Additionally, semiconductor quantum dots have...

Climate change is the main global concern today, triggering a transformative shift in several sectors, especially the construction industry. High carbon emissions during Portland cement (PC) production necessitate a gradual shift toward more environmentally friendly alternatives, such as alkali-activated materials (AAMs). AAMs offer a promising,...

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...

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...

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’...

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...

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...
