Budhysutanto, W.N. (author)Philips Applied Technologies has developed the RT-Motion USB platform as a compact distributed real-time motion control platform, but the platform can still be improved by developing a more advanced software framework. The goal of this thesis project is to design a modular software framework to complement the RT-Motion USB platform with...master thesis 2009

Cheung, S. (author)The project was on expanding the service of Greetinq's voicemail product. The product allowed users to set multiple welcome messages for their callers. In this project, voicemail, its use and applications for this product have been explored. The end result is a service which allows users to control their availability better through the use of...master thesis 2009

Zhang, T. (author)Direct drive generators applied to large wind turbines present some problems, such as very heavy and expensive price. The use of magnetic bearings has a possibility to reduce the weight of the direct drive generator. The control system for such magnetic bearings is considered. In the beginning, the thesis discusses the problems of direct drive...master thesis 2010

Baayen, J.H. (author)In this thesis we present a novel solution to the kite trajectory tracking problem using an explicit control law. Compared to alternative approaches, such as model predictive control, our approach has three major advantages: a stability proof, ease of implementation, and minimal modeling requirements. The latter is especially important for...master thesis 2011

Lintzen, C.S. (author)A human with muscle weakness can wear a rehabilitation device, e.g. exoskeleton, to receive support during walking. How can this support be adjusted in real-time to the intention of the user? The given support should be intuitive, user-specific, compliant and robust to sensor noise. We suggest the use of an adaptive oscillator, which can detect...master thesis 2011

Valk, M.L. (author)The available shoulder harness controlled prostheses do no fulfill the requirements of the users. It is unknown for which operating forces and cable displacements the user can make good use of proprioceptive feedback without feeling pain, discomfort or fatigue. These operating forces and cable displacements can be related to grasping forces and...master thesis 2012

Van der Sluijs, I.L. (author)This thesis concerns the design and construction of an automatic drilling fluid measurement setup and the use of such setup to control the drilling fluid pH. The construction of the experimental setup include modifications to the acquired rheometer to obtain reliable batch rheology measurements within the typical viscosity range of a shear...master thesis 2012

Appelman, N. (author)Already for some time, electronic enhancements regarding vehicle behavior has made its way into the aviation and automotive industry by the term "by-wire" technology. Electronic sensors and actuators are used to replace traditional mechanical systems in which software is used to operate the actuators in a way that is not possible with...master thesis 2012

Muris, V.L.C. (author)Industrial buildings, used as warehouses or distribution centres, are characterized by large doors which are opened temporarily or for longer periods. A new technique - called Ambergy - is investigated which prevents unnecessary energy loss through open overhead doors in heated industrial halls. This technique consists of a smart coupling...master thesis 2013

Papadopoulou, A. (author)The current graduation project is investigating contemporary spatial conditions in the Balkan territory. The overall theme of the code has been carried carefully throughout the whole process tracing the development of spatial conditions from the 15th century until today. Within this timeframe the code has emerged from an underlying power...master thesis 2013

Bliek, L. (author)Most robots receive information about their own dynamics or about their environment before starting to work on their tasks. This makes them less fit for operating in unknown environments without human supervision. In this thesis, the goal is to let a robot learn the relation between its actions and perceptions autonomously. This problem is...master thesis 2013

Valk, R. (author)This master thesis describes the dynamical behaviour of a loudspeaker woofer and the modelling of it. By the use of the knowledge gained from the model, a feedback controller is implemented in order to enhance the woofer’s performance in terms of acoustic total harmonic distortion (THD) and low frequency bandwidth. The first objective of the...master thesis 2013

Wensveen, M.H. (author)Optimistic Planning is a model-based online planning algorithm that guarantees near-optimal actions for the control arbitrarily nonlinear systems. Planning algorithms aim to find optimal actions by starting from the current state and developing a tree representation of sequences of actions and resulting states, using a model to simulate state...master thesis 2014

Drenth, J.F.T. (author)Graduation project on the Public Realm. Topic of study is how to restructure the city of Rotterdam to increase its legibility. Furthermore the design focuses on creating an a-typical typical plan. A plan that can be repeated, thus inheriting the qualities of Typical Plan -flexibility and legibility, without giving in to the worst threat of...master thesis 2014

(author)In the history of the World Solar Challenge, a six day challenge from Darwin to Adelaide, one car has proved to be dominating: the Nuon Solar Car. A telemetry application played an important role in this, but needed to be updated. This was realised by the new Mission Control application project: "Building a GUI for Nuna's Mission Control". In...bachelor thesis 2014

Kootstra, P. (author)This thesis investigates whether interval methods can be employed in the construction of a novel controller synthesis algorithm based on backward induction. Interval methods are methods employing interval arithmetic, which is an arithmetic defined on real-valued intervals rather than on real-valued numbers. In the controller synthesis algorithm...master thesis 2014
