Problem Background:<br/>Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death in the world (Johnston et al., 2016). One of the main causes for cardiovascular mortality is a myocardial infarction (MI) (Jneid et al., 2013; Mishra &amp; Ramavataram, 2021; Verburg et al., 2019). A myocardial infarction is an event in which the heart muscle...

Deterministic predictions of wave induced ship motion are increasingly often used to enlarge the oper- ational envelope of ships that perform complex operations at open sea. The large amount of complex operations performed nowadays, motivates the relevance of motion predictions. The company Next Ocean provides these forecasts, based on linear...

Royal Delft is the oldest manufacturer of delftware that is still producing Delft Blue using traditional techniques up to this day. At the core of their company lies the craftsmanship of producing delftware by hand, from creating the moulds to hand-painting each piece of Delft Blue. With a fast moving industry, Royal Delft needs to innovate...

In this thesis, a geometry-based grasping method for vine-tomato is proposed. The method utilizes a geometric model of the robotic hand and truss to determine an optimal grasping location on the truss stem. This allows grasping a truss without requiring delicate contact sensors or complex mechanical models. A computer vision pipeline is...

In 1811, commissioners designed a plan to develop Manhattan in a very efficient way of maximizing land value with a perpendicular network of streets and avenues. In 1854, the grid was fully constructed and the original land was hardly recognizable anymore. New York grew, got bigger and bigger, resulting in a metropolis where millions work and...

Offshore wind turbines are being placed all over the world. The increased popularity of these structures comes with a boost to the development of wind turbines in general, resulting in larger and higher constructions. To ensure the support structures of the turbines are able to withstand the extreme loads and environmental conditions, it is...

Despite its advantages in performance and control, hardware design is mainly bottlenecked by high design complexity and long development time. This thesis explores the use of domain specific languages for high-level synthesis (HLS) of hardware data filters and transformations.<br/>The main goal of this thesis’ prototype is automating the...

Structures made from cast glass components are transparent and make full use of the high compressive strength of glass. As they have more freedom in shapes and can therefore be designed with a large cross-section, it is more suitable as a<br/>structural element than fl oat glass. However, most cast glass structures that have been completed...

The objective of this research is to identify the passive response of the rider’s body to translational and rotational random perturbations. A custom made bicycle mock-up equipped with a system of sensors has been developed, capable of measuring the linear accelerations, angular velocity and the rider’s force responses in all translational axes...

Bearing-bypass behaviour for composites is different than for metals and therefore this behaviour needs to be re-evaluated. This thesis work aims to provide an initial test set-up to map the bearing- and bypass behaviour in Fibre Metal Laminate mechanical joints, to develop a simple method which can be used by engineers for joint design. This...
