Post, Melvin (author)Bird strike simulations require accurate information about the nonlinear material properties of the bird and structure, dynamic changes in contact between bird and structure, and large displacements and rotations of the structural elements. The soft-body nature of birds allows it to flow fluidly upon impact, making accurate simulation validation...master thesis 2024

van Beek, A.H.N. (author), Duives, D.C. (author), Feng, Y. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Although numerous studies used Virtual Reality (VR) to study pedestrian behavior, there is an ongoing debate about the validity of using VR for studying pedestrian behavior. This study aims to contribute toward the validation of immersive VR systems for pedestrian wayfinding behavior studies by conducting a direct comparison of a field...journal article 2024

Abkar, Leili (author), Aghili Mehrizi, Amirreza (author), Jafari, Morez (author), Beck, Sara E. (author), Ghassemi, Abbas (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author)Reverse osmosis (RO) systems offer a viable solution for treating brackish water (BW), a common but underutilized water resource. However, the energy-intensive nature of brackish water reverse osmosis (BWRO) systems poses affordability challenges to water supply, necessitating a focus on minimizing their energy consumption to support SDG6's...journal article 2024

Knol, Michèle (author)During pre-clinical research on proton therapy, validating the dosimetry is important for accurate and representable results. To ensure that research outcomes can eventually be implemented in clinical practices, it is equally as important to also take biological effects into account. The aim of this thesis was, therefore, to dosimetrically and...master thesis 2023

Landzaat, Tom (author)Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) allows aircraft to broadcast their own position, speed, altitude, and other information to ground stations and other nearby aircraft. This information is then used by air traffic control for situational awareness, and collision avoidance. ADS-B spoofing is possible due to the lack of...master thesis 2023

Lovato, S. (author)The increasing size of today's ships is a major concern for navigation in confined waters. In order to ensure safe manoeuvres, port authorities prescribe, among others, a minimum under-keel clearance that must be maintained by the ships during navigation. However, the seabed of ports situated at the estuaries or along rivers is often covered by...doctoral thesis 2023

Talsma, Tessa M.W. (author), Hassanain, Omar (author), Happee, R. (author), de Winkel, K.N. (author)Increasing levels of vehicle automation are envisioned to allow drivers to engage in other activities but are also likely to increase the incidence of Carsickness or Motion Sickness (MS). Ideally, MS is studied in a safe and controlled environment, such as a driving simulator. However, only few studies address the suitability of driving...journal article 2023

Fuentes Monjas, B. (author), Head, A.J. (author), de Servi, C.M. (author), Pini, M. (author)This work assessed the accuracy of the SU2 flow solver in predicting the isentropic expansion of Siloxane MM through the converging-diverging nozzle test section of the Organic Rankine Cycle Hybrid Integrated Device (ORCHID) [9]. The expansion is modeled using compressible Euler equations, and assuming adiabatic flow, while the fluid...book chapter 2023

Verhagen, Luuk (author)The potential for the production of green energy in the Netherlands is insufficiently utilized. The cause for this problem is the insufficient bearing capacity of industrial roofs for the installation of solar panels using ballast. This required ballast exceeds the bearing capacity of the roof structure, or exceeds the bearing capacity of the...master thesis 2022

Mingione, Fabio (author)Reaction wheels are often the main contributor to microvibrations on satellites. These vibrations are a source of pointing errors and therefore need to be limited as much as possible. The miniaturization trend in the space industry and universities fostered the production of very small reaction wheels, suited to Cubesat and PocketQube scales. A...master thesis 2022

Prins, Binnert (author)Automated Vehicles (AVs) are one of the most promising and intensively studied research topics within engineering and beyond. The race to develop the first full “self-driving” vehicle has started a decade ago and will continue in the future. From the traditional automotive industry and other technological companies that mingled in the race,...master thesis 2022

Greveling, Stan (author)The Delft Hand and Wrist model is a recently created musculoskeletal model in the OpenSim environment. The current model lacks a validation of the thumb muscles. Therefore, the main goal of this work is to perform a quantitative trend validation by analyzing the correlation between experimentally measured muscle activity data and muscle forces...master thesis 2022
