Pockelé, Josephine (author)Wind turbine noise is one of the grand challenges in the public acceptance of onshore wind farm projects. The field of psychoacoustics identifies the auralisation of wind turbine noise as a link between technical design and annoyance estimation. There is currently limited work on the auralisation of wind turbine noise, and none targets an...master thesis 2023

Markhorst, Thomas (author)In this paper, we combine image denoising and classification, aiming to enhance human perception of noisy images captured by edge devices, like security cameras. Since edge devices have little computational power, we also optimize for efficiency by proposing a novel architecture that integrates the two tasks. Additionally, we alter a Neural...master thesis 2023

Verhoog, Castor (author)Vibration attenuation in lightly damped blade-like systems such as cantilevers or end-effectors of robot manipulators can be dampened using Active Vibration Control (AVC). Piezoelectric patches in a collocated setup measure and control the bending modes of such a cantilever system using Positive Position Feedback (PPF). Tuning methods for PPF...master thesis 2023

Dessing, Jostijn (author)The Kuramoto model (KM) is a well known mathematical model of coupled oscillators that is frequently used to study synchronization phenomena. In this bachelor thesis we investigate the effects of noise on synchronization in Kuramoto-type networks.<br/><br/>In the first part we follow the methods of Maggi and Paoluzzi [1], but include detailed in...bachelor thesis 2023

Perrenet, Joris (author)The goal of seismic imaging is to create a model of the subsurface from samples of a transmitted wavefield that is reflected in soil layers.<br/>The created model can be used to locate storage possibilities for CO2 or H2 or to find oil and gas reservoirs or other natural resources.<br/>Seismic imaging relies on the propagation of wavefields,...bachelor thesis 2022

Aalberse, Max (author)During the COVID-19 pandemic people living close to the airport got accustomed to less flights, and therefore less noise disturbance. Now the amount of traffic is increasing again and so is the noise disturbance. For this research specifically the optimizing task of distributing of arriving aircraft over the IAF is addressed, as often the...master thesis 2022

Bui, NAM THANG (author)Although there are many promising applications of a learning curve in machine learning, such as model selection, we still know very little about what factors influence their behaviours. The aim is to study the impact of the inherent characteristics of the datasets on the learning shapes, which are noise, discretized input and dimensionality. We...bachelor thesis 2022

de Haan, Wouter (author)Due to the rising demand for short-range air travel and the desire for aircraft driven by electric propulsion, there has been a renewed interest in propeller research. Despite the high potential aerodynamic efficiency of propellers, their excessive noise emissions prevent a widespread use on aircraft. A gradient based optimization study is...master thesis 2021

Glasbergen, Govert Jan (author)Wind turbines are growing in size and therefore their foundations, become larger as well. Additionally, they are placed in deeper waters. This results in the industry being at the limit of underwater noise levels generated by impact piling during the installation phase of monopiles. The most common installation method for monopiles is impact...master thesis 2020

Kaandorp, Dennis (author)Temperature sensors are integrated into virtually all electronic devices. Unfortunately, the accuracy of commonly used temperature sensors greatly deteriorates in more advanced CMOS processes, thus requiring a certain amount of calibration. Thermal noise thermometry is a highly accurate niche temperature sensing method. It employs the thermal...master thesis 2020

Wannasawang, Patrattakorn (author)Airport and aviation activities, after it first appearance in 1900s, have elevated the transportation industry to a new height. They are both the country biggest economic engine and connection hotspot, as well as biggest source of environmental and social impact—including noise, CO2 emission, territorial disruption and depreciation of local...master thesis 2020

Vlasblom, Nina (author)Skopje is city of architecture with a strong emphasis on their exterior. Looking at the image of the city, the variety of architecture present can seem a bit overwhelming; each type of architecture seems to claim that they are thé image of Skopje. Since Skopje is filled with these different types of 'loud speaking architecture', the image of the...master thesis 2020

de Rooij, Steven (author)Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKIDs) are remarkable photon detectors, that have single photon detection and energy resolving capabilities in the near-infra red and higher frequency range. At lower frequencies, MKIDs are excellent radiation detectors as well, because of their high sensitivity and natural multiplexing capabilities, which...master thesis 2020

Anzolin, Emma (author)My graduation project [Untitled] re-establishing urban dialogues in complex cityscapes, investigates the impact of qualitative public spaces in disorienting urban contexts. Taking as a case study Skopje, the capital of North Macedonia, the research understands the noise that characterises fragmented cities not strictly in terms of acoustic...master thesis 2020

Petrounine, Alexander (author)This graduation project explores the act of listening to “noise”, to develop a new critical attitude to understanding sounds of the contemporary city. The essential aim is to create ears which separate, abstract and re-organize the myriad of sounds of the environment, which often ends up in a cacophony. The sounds of the surroundings are...master thesis 2019

van den Ende, Luc (author)An unexploited rotational momentum, i.e. swirl, is present in the slipstream of propellers. Stationary vanes, called swirl recovery vanes (SRVs), have been proven to be effective in increasing the propulsive efficiency of propellers. There is however no conclusive answer in literature on the noise effect of SRVs. Additionally, as the propeller...master thesis 2018

Brandetti, Livia (author)The increase of energy consumption as well as the need to reduce green-house emissions trigger the shift from a fossil-fuel based society towards a sustainable society. With a constant increase in the installed power capacity, wind plays a key role in the global energy framework. The improvement of the technology opens up new targets for the...master thesis 2018

Brummel, Salomon (author)In the field of fatigue testing in laboratory conditions, the common practice is uniaxial testing (i.e. in tension). The real-life loads on structures are usually not limited to one direction but contain multiaxial components. For this kind of testing, the ship and offshore structures department of Delft University of Technology developed a...master thesis 2018

Mul, Dieuwert (author)Stochastic resonance (SR) is a phenomenon in which the presence of noise increases the performance of the system. The phenomenon has first been discovered in a climate change model and is later observed in neuronal systems. In artificial, electronic, systems, stochastic resonance is observed in systems based on Schmitt-Triggers and comparators....master thesis 2018
