There was an explosive growth in the bioprocess industry market during the last decade. The tight control of these processes is often very critical in order to optimize the process efficiency or even achieve the right product. Capillary electrophoresis (CE) system is a good option for process monitoring and controlling, since it has already been...

Off design conditions can have a severe impact on ship propulsion system behaviour. Resistance increase for instance leads to a higher engine loading, and can also easily lead to a decrease of cavitation inception speed with respect to calm water conditions. Wakefield variations due to ship motions, waves and manoeuvres also have effect on...

Program comprehension is an essential part of software development and software maintenance, as software must be sufficiently understood before it can be properly modified. One of the common approaches in getting to understand a program is the study of its execution, also known as dynamic analysis. While many such approaches have been proposed...

In many applications, such as observation systems, it is important to detect and identify a possible threat as early as possible. Especially the approaching ones are of interest. Such moving threats/objects are often at a very large distance and are observed as very small and unrecognizable objects at the image plane of a camera. In this...

Transportation systems are stochastic and dynamic systems. The road capacities and the travel demand are fluctuating from time to time within a day and at the same time from day to day. For road users, the travel time and travel costs experienced over time and space are stochastic, thus desire reliable travel times and low travel costs by...

Dutch city dwellers take accessible green areas for granted. They might easily forget that considerable resources and regulations have been applied to protect and improve these areas. This dissertation considers the implications if, in line with the neo-liberalization of the state, this approach changes. A multi-theory approach based on Grounded...

This thesis focuses on the topological characterization of complex networks. It specifically focuses on those elementary graph measures that are of interest when quantifying topology-related aspects of the robustness of complex networks. This thesis makes the following contributions to the field of complex networks. Firstly, the thesis analyses...

The coming years there is a need to increase production from petroleum reservoirs, and there is an enormous potential to do so by increasing the recovery factor. This is possible by making better use of recent technological developments, such as horizontal wells, downhole valves and sensors. However, actually making better use of these improved...

This study concerns the behaviour of the closed stiffener (trough) to crossbeam connection in orthotropic steel bridge decks and in particular, the connection where a continuous closed stiffener passes through the crossbeam. For this connection, the crossbeam in-plane and out-of-plane behaviour is analysed. The nominal stresses for unit loads on...

Parallel heterogeneous multiprocessor systems are often shunned in embedded system design, not only because of their design complexity but because of the programming burden. Programs for such systems are architecture-dependent: the application developer needs architecture-specific knowledge to implement his algorithms, as each processor has its...

Wind is becoming an ever more important source of renewable energy: installed wind turbine power now stands at 60,000 MW worldwide, providing 0.6% of world electricity demand. Still it is important that the cost of wind energy is brought down further, which means that wind turbines must be designed to be exactly as strong as necessary, but no...

This thesis describes the synthesis and properties of liquid crystalline block copolymers comprised of alternating rigid and flexible blocks for the preparation of self-reinforcing materials. The incentive for this work was the expectation that the rigid segments would phase separate on a microscopic scale, and would form nematic domains, which...

Polymorphism is the phenomenon that molecules of a compound are able to form more than one crystal structure. These structures possess different properties that are of considerable interest to industry, for example, the solubility and hence bio-availability of pharmaceuticals. Only one of the polymorphic structures is thermodynamically stable...

Performance modeling plays a significant role in predicting the effects of a particular design choice or in diagnosing the cause for some observed performance behavior. Especially for complex systems such as parallel computer, typically, an intended performance cannot be achieved without recourse to some form of predictive models. In performance...

Computer networks and their services have become an essential part of research and education. Nowadays every modern R&E institution must have a computer network and provide network services to its students and staff. In addition to its internal computer network, every R&E institution must have a connection with the computer networks of other...
