Henger, Max (author)Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) turbulence models are in widespread use in the commercial application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), but lack the capability to accurately compute unsteady flows and aeroacoustics due to its implied averaging of turbulent effects. In order to compute these kinds of flows, Large Eddy Simulation (LES)...master thesis 2020

Esseveld, J.R. (author)Records from ledgers of Dutch companies all across the Netherlands are used in this study. Records can be submitted in the ledgers with various lags, because the data of many different bookkeepers is involved with different workflows. Bookkeepers can be punctual or late, therefore records can be submitted with various lags in the ledgers. This...master thesis 2020

de Rooij, Steven (author)Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKIDs) are remarkable photon detectors, that have single photon detection and energy resolving capabilities in the near-infra red and higher frequency range. At lower frequencies, MKIDs are excellent radiation detectors as well, because of their high sensitivity and natural multiplexing capabilities, which...master thesis 2020

van der Laan, Jorik (author)Bone drilling is a crucial part of orthopaedic surgery. Internal fixation is a ommon orthopaedic procedure that requires drilling to improve healing of bone fractures. Tight spaces around hard to reach bone fractures impede the surgeon during the procedure. As a result there is an increased risk of complications such as thermonecrosis, overshoot...master thesis 2020

van den Munckhof, Gijs (author)The objective of this study is find out whether maximum daily discharge of the Geul and Rur catchments can be forecast using machine learning (ML) methods, and if so, to what extent. In addition, these ML models are compared to a conceptual model to see which performs better. A second objective is to test whether soil moisture content (SMC) and...master thesis 2020
