When drag anchors are no longer suitable for anchoring floating wind turbines to the seabed because of unfavorable soil conditions, it is necessary to use drilled and grouted anchor piles instead. For the installation of such anchor piles it is necessary to drill large diameter holes, with diameters ranging between 1 and 5 meters. The drilling...

As single-cell RNA sequencing techniques improve and more cells are measured in individual experiments, cell clustering procedures become increasingly more computationally intensive. This paper studies the runtime performance impact of a specialized clustering algorithm for data converted to a binary format, in order to reduce computational...

This research focuses on a new system for nourishing the Dutch coast with sand, which utilizes semi-autonomous sailing barges and an electrical crawler to continuously replenish the beach. Yearly, the Dutch government grants contracts to nourish the Dutch coast with volumes around 10.000.000 m$^3$. The Dutch dune coast protects the low part of...

In the last few years the smart building market has grown exponentially and is estimated to be worth around 100 billion by the year 2025. The amount of active competitors, combined with the required time and effort to launch a new sensor-based product, makes it difficult to enter the market and slows innovation. WeAreReasonablePeople (WARP), a...

Electric vehicles, electric cooking, heating installations running on electricity; the future is electric. This electrification creates a continuously growing demand of electricity. However, the electricity grid network is not able to transport these amounts of electricity and is facing problems. Part of the problem is created by charging...

Differentiable ray-tracing is an exciting new development in computer graphics to approach all sorts of 3D scene design problems by obtaining gradients of renders produced by ray-tracing with respect to parameters that define the scene. These gradients can then be incorporated in a gradient-descent type optimization pipeline.<br/><br/>One such...

Although the private benefits of the car are enormous, it has also brought problematic externalities such as air pollution, CO2 emissions, traffic accidents, and an inactive lifestyle. Putting an end to the use of fossil fuel-powered cars is broadly considered critical to reduce transport impacts on climate change. Using sustainable transport...

When treating a Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) via Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), a guidewire first needs to be passed through or around the occlusion, a task requiring considerable skill and clinician experience. Proper backup support for the guidewire being used by the clinician is a prerequisite to prevent buckling or uncontrolled...

The application of autonomous robots in search-and-rescue (SAR) missions forms a challenging field of research. Cooperative search behaviour can greatly increase the efficiency with which a multi-agent system creates situational awareness of and finds victims within an unknown environment. In this research we develop an autonomous mission...

Fieldwork Hydraulic Engineering’ is a course given at Delft University of Technology for the MSc Hydraulic Engineering. In collaboration with local experts Boyan Savov and Traian Marin, a team of 8 students guided by Mark Voorendt was sent to investigate the local conditions at Asparuhovo beach in Varna, Bulgaria, for purely educational purposes...

In conventional compressor technology, high pressure ratios are often achieved by multiple, successive compression stages. This is done to avoid high temperatures due to the adiabatic nature of most compression processes which deteriorates the working of oil lubrication. The aim of this work is to reduce a conventional four-stage system to only...

The risk of flood risk is increasing with global trends such as rising sea levels, land subsidence, increasing populations in coastal areas and economic growth. Traditional solutions to reduce flood risk are a levee or a dam; however, the research on hydraulic engineering is increasingly promoting nature-based solutions for flood protection....

To achieve delay of laminar-to-turbulent transition of boundary layers, the application of acoustic metamaterial concepts is investigated. This is done analytically, numerically and experimentally by studying the interaction between a Helmholtz resonator and a TS wave. A Helmholtz resonator can serve as a meta-atom in a metamaterial. The desired...

There is a big demand for housing in the Netherlands and a significant portion of that demand can be facilitated through urban redevelopments. Urban development is hindered by financial barriers that cause public financial deficits. Stimulating urban redevelopment can be achieved by stimulating feasibility. The developers’ contribution is a...

Pretreatment and densification processes such as torrefaction coupled with pelletization have proven to be valuable techniques to convert biomass to solid biofuels. Presently, waste streams from the torrefaction process in the form of volatiles are usually combusted to generate heat required for the torrefaction process. Nevertheless, the...

The gap between CPU and memory performance becomes increasingly larger. Together with a growing memory pressure caused by higher CPU core counts combined with multi-tenant systems, this causes the need for new memory technologies. Recently, various technologies are becoming available for commercial use. Examples of these technologies are memory...

This work proposes a model-free reinforcement learning approach to learn a long-term fleet planning problem subjected to air-travel demand uncertainty. The aim is to develop a dynamic fleet policy which adapts over time by intermediate assessments of the states. A Deep Q-network is trained to estimate the optimal fleet decisions based on the...

Smartphones have become an inseparable gadget and beneficial tool in our lives. Imagining a future without them would truly be impossible. When a new technology arrives, society needs time to adjust and become aware of the impact products have on people and our ways of behaving.. This always takes time. In the case of smartphones, the last few...

Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAI) can occur when microorganisms spread between hospitalized patients. To prevent highly contagious or resistant microorganisms from spreading from one patient to the other, isolation precautions such as contact isolation are applied when patients carry such a microorganism. The first part of this theses...

Logistics service providers (LSPs) offering container transport to the hinterland of the Netherlands face the challenge of efficiently using the capacity of the barge in order to minimize cost, while part of the relevant information is still lacking at the moment decisions have to be made. The existing infrastructure and the transportation...
