Substance use disorders, particularly alcohol use disorder (AUD), are a major global health challenge, significantly impacting morbidity and mortality rates. In the Netherlands, around 20% of the population is affected by excessive alcohol consumption, with a notable treatment gap and disproportionate effects on the elderly. Despite increased...

The project's purpose was to investigate the development of a medical sharps waste device appropriate for use and manufacture in Nepal. Medical sharps waste management in Nepal is still somewhat dangerous, despite the physical and environmental dangers.<br/><br/>After considering several design directions, it was determined to create a mechanism...

Unequal deformation of the soil can cause deformation or damage to buildings, like tilted facades or cracks in walls. This research investigates how deformation of a building can be analyzed using Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) data. Cyclomedia captures LiDAR data yearly in the Netherlands making it possible to analyze either one or...

This thesis serves as an attempt to establish the initial empirical linkage between environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors and startup valuation by venture capitalists. While substantial academic work has addressed the ESG topic and how firms’ ESG characteristics impact their financial performance and valuations, relatively little...

Electroactive polymers (EAPs) are smart materials that have electromechanical and mechanoelectrical transduction properties. They are flexible, lightweight, easy to shape and cheap to produce. These properties allow EAPs to be used as actuators or sensors in applications such as soft robotics, metamaterial structures, or other future...

Explainable artificial intelligence has in recent years allowed us to investigate how many machine learning methods are creating its predictions. This is especially useful in scenarios where the goal is not to predict a variable, but to explain what influences that variable. However, the methods that have been created thus far do not focus on...

Low-frequency sound transmission in a cross-laminated timber apartment building can result in annoyance, even if the acoustic requirements of the building code are fulfilled. Cross-laminated timber is an upcoming material in the building industry. But there are also problems arising when building with this relatively new material. CLT is a...

This report covers the investigation of impact of uncertainties on the multidisciplinary design optimization of a medium-range single-aisle turbofan aircraft for minimum global warming impact. The employed workflow for the investigation is a five step process, starting with the implementation of the deterministic climate impact model and...

Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) navigation in unstructured off-road environments can benefit from accurate traversability estimation. Often, experiments with UGVs use semantic segmentation networks for visual scene understanding. Based on the pixel-wise classification of a semantic segmentation network, the UGV can distinguish traversable from non...

The free energy principle is a recent theory that originates from the neuroscience. It provides a unified framework that combines action perception and learning in the human brain. This research aims to implement the perception aspect of the free energy principle into robotics. This is achieved via the dynamic expectation maximisation (DEM)...

Currently, most ships are designed on the basis of rules and reference ships for which often only the critical structural parts are calculated and designed in detail. This process can result in an over-dimensioned ship with the standard structural outcome of longitudinal stiffeners, transverse stiffeners, and bulkheads with a fixed distance due...

2020 is a strange and disruptive year. The pandemic virus COVID-19 controls people’s lives. It influences the way we live, love, and work. Offices are empty while people work from home. When, and if people are going to work in an office again like they were used to, is the question. The events of 2020 are an extra showcase that the way we use...

In this paper, a method is proposed to automatically correct misalignment of orthophotos in time-series caused by an inaccurate geotransform. The proposed method relies on common literature concepts such as keypoint identification, keypoint matching, and model fitting using random sample consensus (RANSAC). Traditional keypoint identification...

Graphene is expected to open up a world of new possibilities in the field of micro and nano sensors, due to its outstanding properties. However, graphene membranes suffer from high damping which limit their performance. The physical mechanism behind this damping is still unknown. Therefore, in this work, it is investigated how coupling between...

With an in vehicle camera many different things can be done that are essential for ADAS or autonomous driving mode in a vehicle. First, it can be used for detection of general objects, for example cars, cyclists or pedestrians. Secondly, the camera can be used for traffic light recognition, which is localization of traffic light position and...

This thesis describes how multimodal sensor data from a 3D sensor and microphone array can be processed with deep neural networks such that its fusion, the trained neural network, is a) more robust to noise, b) outperforms unimodal recognition and c) enhances unimodal recognition in absence of multimodal data. We built a framework for a complete...

Stiffened panels at the water line of a ship experience in-plane loads due to ship bending and torsion, as well as out-of-plane loads due to wave impacts. Wave impacts weaken the panel with respect to in-plane loads, but are hard to predict because of complex physics. The in-plane strength of the panel supports the surrounding ship structure....

Consumer happiness is one of the things every company wants to create. They want people to be happy with their products and services since that leads to a positive association with the brand. After buying products or services people are “happy” about their new possession, it gives them an added value. This increase in happiness will not last...

The food and beverage industry often uses pneumatic cylinders to enable machinery in food processing plants to move. The requirements around hygiene are strict. This is to prevent consumer food from getting contaminated with pathogenic microorganisms. The food itself and the intensive chemical cleaning products used, form a harsh environment for...
