The small and lightweight Lunar Zebro rover must survive in the harsh lunar environment for several Earth days following its moon landing. The mission of the rover is to map the radiation environment on the moon. The success of the entire mission depends on the Power Electronic System (PES), which supplies power to all subsystems and charges the...

In the face of urbanization and limited space, traffic management grapples with challenges, especially heavy left-turn volumes at signalized intersections. The pre-signal strategy, proposed by Li et al. (2014), emerges as a promising solution. It involves an additional traffic light upstream of the main intersection, creating a "sorted area"...

Currently, our society faces a pressing challenge: global warming. The solution lies in the energy transition, which replaces fossil fuels with clean sources. This requires a global effort across all sectors, including shipping. While a significant portion of shipping relies on polluting fuels, the European Union’s Green Deal aims for climate...

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....

Occupants are often unaware of window opening strategies that can enhance their well-being and reduce energy consumption. Window feedback systems that indicate when to manually operate a window have become a strategy for enhancing the indoor climate, occupant’s satisfaction and energy efficiency. These systems are recognized for providing the...

Due to the short shelf-life of flowers (circa 7 days) good inventory management is required to minimize disposals. The trade-off between supplying enough to meet demand yet not too much to prevent expiration is a delicate matter. However, in the current situation uncertainty about inventory levels due to inadequate information and conventional...

One of the main reasons that the efficiency drops from cell to module is the conduction losses. To increase the efficiency of the PV module, the produced charge carriers in the semiconductor materials should be transferred to the PV module terminals with minimum conduction losses. As an alternative to the conventional cells and modules...

This thesis investigates the performance limits and design challenges of two current-mode front-end concepts that target WiFi and mm-wave 5G applications, respectively. The first concept is a power amplifier (PA), which operates at 2.4GHz and is driven by a direct-digital RF modulator (DDRM). A design for the PA, which also includes a parallel...

Nowadays people become busier than ever before. Even though people still have 24 hours in each day, it feels as if no one has “free time” to do anything. Thus, busy people prefer using their limited time to clean the most important area indeed. It is how the idea “dust map” came. Users can create the map by themselves and the appliance will...

In general most megaprojects are finished over the budget and later than initially expected. Despite all industries seem to struggle with achieving the desired performance, the lowest performance is found in projects executed in the oil and gas sector. Furthermore the productivity rates in construction industry are the lowest among other...
