de Jong, Yoni (author)Introduction. To prevent burns from scar formation and contraction, the use of splinting therapy in the early phase of wound healing is considered as an effective non-surgical method. Splinting entails the application of a mechanical load in the opposite direction of the contractile force within the wound, based on the assumption that wound- or...master thesis 2019

de Jong, Joost (author)This thesis reports on the research and design of a real-time Time-Varying Model Predictive Control (TVMPC) scheme to stabilize a tilt-rotor aircraft with four independently tilting rotors. The aircraft design stems from a prototype system constructed by the drone technology start-up Avy.<br/>First, a motivation is presented for implementation...master thesis 2019

de Jong, Max (author)Most modern cancer treatments are a combination of therapies. In approximately 50% of these combinations radiation therapy plays a prominent role. Although external radiation therapy is very effective,<br/>it still damages healthy tissue. Therefore, ways to increase radiation dose deposition at the tumor are sought. The interaction of radiation...master thesis 2021

de Jong, Maria (author)Large-scale changes in ocean conditions caused by installing and operating Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) have not been studied in depth. Conversely, the effect on an OTEC plant by oceanographic features are not researched in depth either. The aim of this research is to describe the natural patterns and variability of the ocean currents...master thesis 2017

de Jong, Michiel (author)In the modern world, evacuating a building in a safe and orderly manner remains a challenge. Fire-based emergencies in a building are dynamic environments that can be simulated to better understand, analyse, and contribute to safer and smarter buildings. While different spatial representations exist, <i>voxels</i> provide a structured, flexible...master thesis 2022

de Jong, Ties (author)"Landfills form the final stage in waste processing and are sources of multiple environmentally harmful emissions. Due to the biodegradation of organic material, methane, a strong greenhouse gas, is released into the air and soluble pollutants, like ammonium or heavy metals, are flushed out of the landfill waste. In modern landfills, the waste...master thesis 2021

de Jong, Renske (author)Fat fraction (FF) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values estimated by Dixon MRI and diffusion weighted MRI (DWI) techniques respectively, are relatively new quantitative imaging parameters and increasingly accepted as imaging biomakers for all sorts of purposes. The aim of the BOCASEcA study is to research whether these techniques can...master thesis 2021

de Jong, Simone (author)This thesis describes the process of the development of the MuseumMakers application: a tool for providing constructive feedback by children to museums. The tool only focuses on regular visits, because it is more difficult to collect feedback from younger visitors. This is due to the fact there is no interaction between museum employees and...master thesis 2018

de Jong, Bart (author)Switching max-plus linear (SMPL) systems written in max-plus algebra form a robust framework to model discrete-event systems governed by synchronisation whose behaviour may switch over time. Their evolution is described by a max-plus linear state-space representation that may change by switching modes. In their typical form, switching may depend...master thesis 2022

de Jong, Alieke (author)Waterborn transport currently runs on diesel driven Internal Combustion Engines<br/>(ICE). To reduce Green House Gas (GHG) emissions an option is to shift towards<br/>alternative fuels, like alcohols. This thesis focusses on methanol in ICEs. The<br/>combustion of methanol in ICEs can be done in numerous manners, where fuel<br/>altering,...master thesis 2018

de Jong, bart (author)Growing populations, high-technology applications and the energy transition raise the demand for rare earth elements. As a secure supply in the future is all but certain, opportunities arise for deep-sea mining. Polymetallic nodules<br/>that are located on the vast, sediment-covered ocean floors, are one of the more promising deep-sea mineral...master thesis 2021

de Jong, Marnix (author)At the United Nations Climate Change Conference held in Paris in 2015, ambitious goals for the worldwide CO2 emissions were set. To achieve these goals, a huge reduction in CO2 emissions must be realized. For the energy market, the current aim is to use renewable electricity instead of fossil fuels. However, there are multiple sectors where...master thesis 2018

de Jong, David (author)End-to-end trained Convolutional Neural Networks have led to a breakthrough in optical flow estimation. The most recent advances focus on improving the optical flow estimation by improving the architecture and setting a new benchmark on the publicly available MPI-Sintel dataset. Instead, in this article, we investigate how deep neural networks...master thesis 2020
