In dredging and land reclamation, there are growing economic and environmental pressures to make beneficial use of fine-grained/cohesive soils. Due to these pressures, there is renewed interest in researching ways to optimise the beneficial use of fine-grained soils in dredging and reclamation.<br/>Stiff cohesive clayey soils soil break up into...

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a rare but aggressive type of primary liver cancer with a dismal prognosis. CCA commonly metastasizes to the lungs and lymph nodes, significantly reducing overall survival. However, a mechanistic understanding of how CCA invades these metastatic sites remains lacking. This is partly due to the failure of current...

In recent decades Europe has been increasing its demand and consumption of electronics. This has in turn resulted in major outflows of waste electronics (WEEE) that are usually not properly dealt with. This is especially the case for low to medium grade printed circuit boards (PCBs) which unlike higher grade electronics such as computers are...

Optimizing delivery routes is a well-researched topic, however, most of the classical approaches do not incorporate preferences of drivers, as those approaches focus on minimizing the time or distance of the routes. As a result, the actual driven route of an experienced driver often deviates from the proposed route since the drivers have tacit...

Cardiac complications after surgery are common irrespective of the underlying condition. The postoperative level of troponin T is a good marker for cardiac complications. Little is known on the pathology of the release of troponin T in the blood, while a better understanding might provide the ability to reduce the complications. The goal of the...

Arid regions throughout the world experience long periods of drought. Combined with a high temperature, this can lead to water shortage. Due to climate change, this is expected to worsen, as areas become drier and temperatures increase. One of the regions where this problem occurs is the region of North-East Africa. In this region, water stress...

Airport operations are highly dependent on safe weather conditions for their daily operations. Especially the visibility conditions are crucial. Low Visibility Procedures (LVP phase M, A, B and C) are defined at Schiphol Airport, resulting in capacity and runway use restrictions. These Low Visibility Pro­cedures are based on a post­processing...

This work presents an experimental and analytical investigation of the distortion of grid generated turbulence and its relation to the aeroacoustics of a low Reynolds number propeller. The propeller has a chord based Reynolds number of 10<sup>4</sup>≤ Re<sub>c </sub> ≤ 10<sup>5</sup> and operates at an advance ratio of 0.225...

Over the last couple of decades, refugee flows have been telling us a story of increasing numbers that are unlikely to go down anytime soon. The region of Eastern Africa only is home to 2.7 million people finding refuge in refugee settlements that are not often associated with permanency. UNHCR handbooks and many competent authorities state that...

In recent years the need for action against climate change has severely grown. Action is needed now and circularity can help to make sectors more sustainable. The agri-food sector plays a big role in this, as we need three times the surface area of our country to support the needs of the inhabitants.The agri-food sector is putting too much...

Wind farms experience significant efficiency losses due to the aerodynamic interaction between turbines. A possible control technique to reduce these losses to a minimum is yaw-based wake steering. This thesis investigates the feasibility of this technique by calibrating a surrogate model called the FLOw Redirection and Induction in Steady-state...

Trust is a human mechanism that opens doors to innovation and progress. Especially when risk is involved, trust will create a bridge between you and an opportunity and will enable that crossover. I believe design can form such a bridge, and in this project I explored how design can create trust.<br/>This project was done in the context of a...

Presently, the majority of the worlds energy supply is dependent on fossil fuels. As these fuels area limited resource and have significant negative side effects, the way humanity uses these is unsustainable and other sources of energy have to be found. One of these sustainable energy sources is plant-derived biomass. However, biomass cannot be...

In budding yeast, a certain concentration of the GTPase Cdc42 is optimal for cell division. This optimal concentration depends on the phenotype and genetic background of the cells. Due to bet hedging, the Cdc42 concentration is different between cells in a population and it is expected that the concentration, measured for many cells, is gamma...

Change can be defined as deliberate activities that move an organisation from its present state to a desired future state (Harigopal, 2016). A form of facilitating change is to organise a creative session, which is a group process of applied creativity with the ultimate goal to create a product. The product is the desired future state of a...

The Morris method is a widely used screening method in sensitivity analysis. The method assumes that the input parameters are independent of each other. To overcome the assumption a copula-based Morris method is proposed. In this report the results of taking the dependencies into account are analyzed for the Morris method. For two examples...

In contemporary society, a large part of the housing stock for people with autism focuses on living with house mates and in-house support (Berger et al., 2005). It seems, through several extensive questionnaires, that 65% of those individuals seek another housing situation, namely independent housing of some sort (Begeer et al., 2013). Design of...

Since the oil price collapse at the end of 2014, operators in the offshore industry experience a decline in revenues and a need for downsizing. Simultaneously, the wind industry is growing every year, as an increasing amount of companies and consumers are investing in green energy. This creates opportunities for Heerema Marine Contractors (HMC),...
