The pressure trigger (PT) algorithm of the SLE 6000 ventilator is a non-invasive respiratory rate (RR) monitoring technique that can detect spontaneous breathing during non-invasive respiratory support. The PT algorithm can detect spontaneous breaths based on air pressure changes in the ventilatory circuit, labelling the pressure fluctuation as...

Fog plays a major role in chain collisions. Proper fog detection is essential for the Dutch road authority to anticipate foggy weather conditions. Dozens of stations in the Netherlands can measure fog. However, fog can be a very local phenomenon. Therefore, more local measurements are needed. There are about 5,000 traffic cameras in...

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is considered an essential solution to reaching climate goals. The two main identified transport modes in CCS, pipelines and ships, are widely compared to each other in the literature. This research contributes to the literature about the evaluation of transportation modes in CCS chains, by determining to what...

Sustainability transitions is a complex multi-dimensional research field. In this field, different frameworks exist that have grown as separate strands while they actually contain many similarities and in some cases can even complement each other. In general, these frameworks try to present and clarify the processes related to transitions of...

The development of floating islands is an attractive option to provide living/working spaces at sea, as it would be a more economical solution for many locations at sea where the water depth is high. However, large second-order wave forces cause the floating island mooring system to become expensive as the wave height increases. So, in many...

The increased awareness of the negative consequences of man-made climate change has given rise to a fast growing offshore wind industry. Wind turbines become increasingly larger, and available locations for offshore wind farms are shifting towards deeper waters, where jack-up vessels can no longer be used for installation. Heerema Marine...

To complete the energy transition, a high efficiency for photovoltaic (PV) modules is desirable to reduce the needed material and surface area (per unit of generated electrical energy). The tandem PV technology has the potential to increase the efficiency of PV modules over 30%. In order to design efficient solar cells, a quantification of the...

Accurate yet computationally efficient modelling of fixed-wing airborne wind energy systems is key in the preliminary design phase. For the simulation framework of large scale fixed-wing airborne wind energy systems an FSI model is developed that can evaluate flight states in the order of seconds and is able to account for viscosity and multi...

Research into constructing reduced-order models (ROM) to reduce computational cost or to interpret complex datasets from numerical or experimental sources has steadily been gaining popularity over the past few years. Many methods currently exist to construct ROMs. The proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) is one of the most widely adopted...

Two current assumptions of the Zeesluisformulering (ZSF) regarding a homogeneous lock density and instantaneous shipping are tested against refined descriptions according to literature: a stratified lock density and shipping according the continuity approach. These are implemented into a conceptual model constructed in Python, after which...

Infant shaking can cause serious damage (inflicted head injury by shaking trauma), it’s occurrence indicates the necessity for infant protection. To ensure reliable jurisprudence, it is important to know the exact consequences of shaking on an infant’s body. These consequences can be researched by the use of an anthropomorphic shake doll. With...

The Dutch population is aging and therefore the Netherlands requires more capacity in care since this is currently not enough. Living independently as long as possible is a solutionand this solution corresponds to the wishes of elderly. Therefore the purpose of this research is to answer the following question: ‘How can architecture extend...

Turbidity currents transport land-derived sediment to deep sea where theirdeposits form large geological structures termed submarine fans. Giventheir large areal extent and high sand content, submarine-fan deposits formsignificant hydrocarbon reservoirs. Their internal architecture is often poorlyresolved. With much of the three-dimensional...

The "FM Chirp Waveform Generator and Detector for Radar" is a Bachelor graduation project with an educational purpose. In this thesis, two modules of the whole system are designed and simulated. In particular, the sawtooth generator and the FM detector. The sawtooth generator is used to generate a linearly increasing signal, which can be used to...

The issue of suburban sprawl in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTA) has been increasing the pressures of land consumption, infrastructure development, resource consumption, and population growth over the past 50 years. The same can be said for many peripheral regions of Canada’s urban areas. In 2011, two thirds of the population of...

Rapid urbanisation and globalisation are bringing increasingly complex issues to the forefront. Improper planning of human activities and over exploitation of the surrounding natural resources has successfully damaged the biodiversity and the natural processes. Today humanity is at a stage where these ecosystem services are essential for our...

Vision based control allows Micro Air Vehicles (MAV) to move autonomously in GPS-denied environments, for example in indoor applications. An open issue in this field is landing on an unknown platform. The difficulty in visual control w.r.t. such an unknown platform, is a lack of scale. Without knowledge of the scale of offsets and object sizes ...

A considerable contribution to the greenhouse effect originates from landfills. This contribution originates from the degeneration of waste in the landfill. The gas which is created during the degeneration consists of 40 to 60% methane. One mole of methane has a global warming potential which is 28 times higher than that of carbon dioxide....

In order to reduce the climate impact induced by the aircraft industry, the variability between cost optimized and climate optimized flight trajectories was evaluated. This was done to establish how the climate impact reduction affects the operating costs and vice versa. To evaluate the climate impact of air traffic, a climate-chemistry model...
