In our thesis, we conducted an in-depth exploration of the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in public sector decision-making, focusing particularly on AI case routing for welfare benefits allocation. Initially, our research was guided by a techno-optimistic viewpoint, presuming that municipalities would inherently benefit from AI...

This thesis describes the design of a low-cost class-S power quality analyzer based on a Raspberry Pi 4. Capable of detecting power frequency, magnitude, voltage dips and swells, harmonics, and total harmonic distortion, the project consists of four main components: the communication protocol, the interface, the algorithms for power quality...

Battery-electric aviation is commonly believed to be limited to small aircraft and is therefore expected have a negligible impact on the decarbonization of the aviation sector. In this paper we argue that, with the correct choice of design parameters and top-level aircraft requirements, the addressable market is actually substantial. To...

Thus far, battery-electric propulsion has not been considered a promising pathway to climate-neutral aviation. Given current and expected battery technology, in most literature battery-electric aircraft are only considered feasible for short ranges (< 400 km) and small payloads (< 19 pax). As a result, battery-electric aircraft development...

Fused Filament Fabrication is an additive manufacturing technique in which molten thermoplastic polymers are extruded through a nozzle. Therefore, the interplay between the viscoelastic nature of the polymer melt, temperature, printing conditions and nozzle shape may lead to inconsistent extrusion. To improve the extrusion control and...

Spatial thinking is ubiquitous in design. Design education across all age groups encompasses a range of spatially challenging activities, such as forming and modifying mental representations of ideas, and visualizing the scenarios of design prototypes being used. While extensive research has examined the cognitive processes of spatial...

Soft robots are intrinsically capable of adapting to different environments by changing their shape in response to interaction forces. However, sensory feedback is still required for higher level decisions. Most sensing technologies integrate separate sensing elements in soft actuators, which presents a considerable challenge for both the...

Quantitative predictions of marine and aeolian sediment transport in the nearshore–beach–dune system are important for designing Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) in coastal environments. To quantify the impact of the marine-aeolian interactions on shaping NBS, we present a framework coupling three existing process-based models: Delft3D Flexible...

Airborne wind energy (AWE) is an emerging renewable energy technology that uses kites to harvest winds at higher altitudes than wind turbines. Understanding how residents experience a local AWE system (AWES) is important as the technology approaches commercialization. Such knowledge can help adjust the design and deployment of an AWES to fit...

Automated vehicles (AVs) may transform not only our travel experience but our complete daily schedules. This study analyses the data from an interactive stated activity-travel survey using latent class cluster analysis to uncover the types and prevalence of schedule changes with AVs. The analysis reveals that the majority of respondents expected...

CO<sub>2</sub> emissions need to be reduced drastically to fight climate change and minimise the further increase of average global temperatures. The decarbonisation of the energy system aims at reducing CO<sub>2</sub> emissions and is thus urgently needed. This transition is facilitated by inter alia switching to renewable energy sources and...

Brachytherapy (BT) is a safe and effective technique to treat prostate cancer that has not spread outside the prostate gland (localised prostate cancer). Nonetheless, in current clinical practice hazards can arise in positioning the BT needles in the prostate for the purpose of irradiation. Intermediate structures can block access to the...

Recent literature in real-time trajectory planning has proposed using Control Barrier Functions (CBFs) as collision constraints in Model Predictive Control (MPC) for efficient guidance, a concept referred to as MPC-CBF. This concept has been explored for both first and second-order CBFs. However, these approaches relied on an analytical...

This design report discusses the embodiment design of a more efficient frying pan for gas powered stoves in commercial kitchens, to see if a potential market entry is feasible, viable and desirable. Conventional pans have a thermal efficiency of roughly 25%. This means that only 25% of the heat coming from the combusted gas is used for cooking....

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is becoming more prevalent as the world population gets older. The formation of Amyloid-beta (\AB) plaques is one of the pathologies related to AD. Recent work has shown that the \ab load in brain tissue has a negative correlation with cognitive performance in cognitively healthy centenarians. <br/>This work aims to...

In this study, the aim is to find out how Erasmus MC can properly prepare for the AI Act. An iterative design approach was utilized to explore what AI project members may experience during this regulatory process. Several factors have emerged during this experimental study, including the allocation of responsibility, the importance of education...

Banks issue mortgages with an embedded option for borrowers to prepay a part of the loan. However, this behaviour poses a risk to banks as it disrupts the level and timing of mortgage cash flows. From an earning perspective, when interest rates decrease, customers are financially incentivised to prepay their mortgages, resulting in a decrease in...

Non-Euclidean spaces are spaces that do not satisfy all of Euclid’s postulates. An example of such a space is hyperbolic space. In this paper, a method is discussed to draw a tessellation of hyperbolic space in a manner that fits with the virtual reality game "Holonomy", a game which takes place in hyperbolic space. The main result shows that...
