Trujillo Cuellar, Roberto (author)In-depth water diversion is a chemical EOR method that has been winning acceptance over the last years because of several reasons. One of them is the fact that sodium silicate, active component, is considered a green chemical. Moreover, this component has shown the ability to generate thermally activated plugs at far away distances from the...master thesis 2017

de Groot, Jurriaan (author)Nature has found many interesting solutions to similar problems that we face with robots. Swarming in robotics is an interesting field to reduce cost and risk, and provide a scalable solution to certain problems. The Zebro Project of the TU Delft performs research in the field of swarm robotics using the six legged robot, called a Zebro. Swarm...master thesis 2017

de Hoop, Stephan (author)Under-sampling of the subsurface combined with scale differences in observations causes the estimation of geological parameters to be an ill-posed problem. As a result, only a subset of theoretically possible models can truly depict the reality. In reservoir modeling, we capture complexity and heterogeneity by representing the solution space...master thesis 2017

Roest, Raoul (author)In tegenstelling tot een Europese optie, is de prijs van een Amerikaanse optie vaak niet te berekenen met behulp van standaard analysemethoden. Om toch een optieprijs te kunnen bepalen, wordt er gebruik gemaakt van simulatiemethoden. In stochastische modellen, gebaseerd op zogenoemde arbitragevrije prijsbepalingen, is de optieprijs gelijk aan de...bachelor thesis 2017

Krzesiński, Paweł (author)The capacity of public roads has become a serious problem all over the world. The traffic is constantly increasing, while the capacity remains almost the same. This causes traffic jams and road accidents. An effective way to increase the road throughput employs vehicular platoons, which allow to decrease inter-vehicle distances without...master thesis 2017

Boumzaouad, Mohamed (author)During offshore installations in harsh sea conditions, the involved gangway system must satisfy rigorous requirements in terms of safety and accuracy. The forces resulting from the vessel motion have an extensive effect on the overall gangway structure and its lifetime. Moreover, vessel motion handicaps the operator during fine positioning of...master thesis 2017

Shi, Jing (author)With the development of the inland waterway transport, ship locks become more and more important as infrastructure in waterway network. Currently, there are a lot of studies about the capacity of locks, but the impact of the chamber’s horizontal dimension on the passing time and the costs-benefits should be studied more. In order to study the...master thesis 2017

Verschelling, Rutger (author)At large-scale events, the large inflow of visitors travelling by car often causes queues on the roads in the direct surroundings of the event. These queues can spill back to the main road network, where through traffic is driving as well: this through traffic will be hindered by the congestion, while those travellers don’t have the event venue...master thesis 2017

van Dam, Wirdmer (author)Freight transport is an essential component of the economy, as among other things it ensures the availability of finished goods to consumers. Synchromodal transport is a new transport method that aims to use real-time and flexible switching among different modes of transport according to the latest logistics information, to utilise the different...master thesis 2017

Roosendaal, Jasper (author)In order to limit the impacts of climate change, there is a pressing need to accelerate the development and implementation of sustainable transport technologies and to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This research provides an in-depth investigation into the impact of zero-emission vehicles on freight transport flows in terms of the...master thesis 2017

Both, Ambrus (author)The efficient and clean combustion of liquid fuels is a fundamental requirement in the design of future energy systems. Simulation plays a more and more important role in the design of such burners. In this work the spray combustion simulation approach introduced by Ma (2016) is improved, and validated against the CORIA Jet Spray Flame database ...master thesis 2017

Li, Ke (author)Due to the rapid increase of global trade and deepening integration within the European Union (EU), freight transport across the EU has had relatively fast growth. However, constraints of transport infrastructure, interoperability and governance issues do slow down the developments of freight transport. There is a need for transport planning...master thesis 2017

van der Meijden, Rune (author)The rapid and uncertain penetration of distributed energy resources is changing the way people are consuming electricity. This development increases the risk of instability and congestion in the grid, posing great challenges to system operators in the near future. In order to optimally allocate resources and plan grid enhancement, distribution...master thesis 2017

Kortleven, M. (author)In this research computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used to model a vertical axis wind turbine. Well known turbulence models | i.e. the k-epsilon and k-omega SST model | are used and compared in their performance against each other and a set of experimental data. The formal research question is "What models are available for the simulation of...bachelor thesis 2016
