This thesis presents the conceptual development of an innovative parallel manipulator that leverages the beneficial attributes of parallel kinematic structures. These attributes include increased stiffness, uniform load distribution, and reduced moving mass, which are strategically incorporated into the design to enhance resource efficiency....

Due to the rising sea level in combination with land subsidence there is a need to reinforce the dikes. The use of a crest element to increase the height of the dike is an effective and relatively cheap way to reinforce the dikes (Hogeveen, 2021). When a crest element is used, the jet generated by wave breaking on the dike slope impacts on the...

In recent years, the agricultural sector has seen significant techno- logical improvements under the flag of precision agriculture, assisting farmers in the manageability that coincides with large-scale farming. Moreover, precision agriculture aims to enable plant-specific farming on the macro scale that is demanded by the current global...

The Protein Transition is a societal transition that resolves around shifting society towards consuming more plant-based proteins instead of animal proteins. There are numerous drivers for this transition, the most well-known and considerable ones being climate change, animal welfare, public health and unfair agricultural economics.<br/><br/>To...

Cutter suction dredgers (CSD) are highly vulnerable to large wave loading due to their stiff, spud-based mooring. Many mitigations targeted at reducing the resulting stresses on the spud and other critical operating components have been proposed in recent years, most notably by adding a level of flexibility to the connection between the pontoon...

Existence of commuting THB-spline projectors is of importance in the field of numerical mathematics. These projectors are required to show that numerical solutions to the abstract Hodge Laplace problem are stable and consistent. We have introduced a local THB-spline projector based on Bezier projection, that commutes in the one-dimensional case....

Improving data quality is of the utmost importance for any data-driven company, as data quality is unmistakably tied to business analytics and processes. One method to improve upon data quality is to restore missing and wrong data entries.  </p><p class="MsoNormal">The goal of this research is construct an algorithm such...

Estimating wave runup is of crucial importance during a coastal risk assessment. Currently, runup levels are usually calculated using empirical formula derived from experiments conducted at beaches all over the world, and during different beach states. During this research, conditions are analyzed where runup reaches the dune toe and above. The...

Packages to encode Machine Learned models into optimization problems is an underdeveloped area, despite the advantages is could provide. The main draw of implementing Machine Learned models into optimization models, is that it allows the optimizer to better account for the human experience.<br/>Maragno D., Wiberg H. et al. constructed an...

The Netherlands is world famous when it comes to coastal defence. The world is always changing, therefore the Netherlands, together with many countries, has to adapt constantly to the climate. This constant change means that in particular the coastline of the Netherlands requires extra attention because of the uncertainty of sea level rise. The...

This research aims to improve the sustainability of Dutch prestressed concrete railway sleepers. Approximately 100.000 to 200.000 sleepers are used every year, corresponding to 12.000 to 24.000 tonnes of concrete. This will be done by replacing cement with an alkali-activated binder. The cement industry is responsible for approximately 5 to 7%...

This paper introduces the notion of infinite games, i.e., games in which two players take turns playing moves ad infinitum, so that player I wins if the sequence of moves is in a predetermined payoff set. Theorems are then provided about whether a player in such games can have a winning strategy. The first theorem, Gale-Stewart, shows that games...

Very high energy electron (VHEE) radiotherapy is being investigated as a potential replacement of photon therapy. VHEE pencil beams have a small penumbra and strong depth dependence for radiotherapy when compared to photons. This allows a lower dose to healthy tissue. Generating these high electron energy beams could be...

In this thesis, the design of a frequency analysis system for conveyor belt weighing systems is designed. The objective of the thesis is to detect a change in resonance frequency, caused by a change of pressure applied to a sensor. The design features a resolution of 10 000 discrete frequency levels in a bandwidth of 0.5 MHz. Noise division of a...

A variety of statistical methods are available to detect sudden changes, or breakpoints, in time series when used as multi-temporal change detection technique. However, these methods are unreliable in the presence of noise. Neural nets might detect breakpoints better. These deep learning models are able to generalize and optimize well, even in...

E8 is a famous root system in mathematics. Lisi claims in his paper “An Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything” that there is a connection between the standard model of the elementary particles and this root system. He claims that standard model has the same structure as the root system E8. If this is true, there must be a mapping from the...

In this work we set out to determine the impact, if any, of the analysis of news on stock price prediction, that is, are we able to predict stock movements more accurately on a consistent basis than a proposed baseline or random guessing on the basis of news’ text analysis. We considered a methodology to be more accurate if its success rate is...

Terminos Lagoon is the biggest and ecologically most important fluvial-lagoon system of the southern Gulf of Mexico. Rivers, sea and meteorology all influence the lagoon, variable over the year, resulting in a complex situation. To protect this area, it is crucial to know how different hydrological processes, hydrodynamic processes and spatial...

Purpose – One of the long-standing issues in the field of real estate management is the alignment of demand and supply. When building retrofit is initiated to comply with changing demands, the decision-maker has to deal with several, often competing, criteria. Smart systems have the potential to contribute to the process of optimally attuning...
