Meijer, Diederik (author)The offshore wind sector in Europe has grown significantly over the past 20 years. Following this surge in number of installations, the first generation of turbines is reaching its end-of-life (EOL) phase and thought needs to be put into end-of-life strategies. As the market for lifetime extension is still in its infancy and...master thesis 2022

Meijer, Rik (author)The post-disaster redevelopment of a city is a complex process that requires perspectives from urban, social, economic and even ecological sciences. Resilience defines as the ability to bounce back, but the everchanging complexity of a city requires more than a simple rebuilding to pre-disaster conditions. My research identifies different...master thesis 2019

Meijer, Iris (author)Abstract—Background: Vacuum extraction is a way to prevent unnecessary maternal deaths, by using a vacuum extractor to help deliver the baby in the second stage of labour. Vacuum extraction is still little-used in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) compared to high-income countries, due to the lack of sufficient devices on the market that...master thesis 2023

Meijer, Bart (author)The thought of being secure has been on the minds of people throughout history. Security is the protection against intended incidents. Intended incidents happen due to a result of a deliberate and planned act. Security systems are implemented in order to set up security precautions which have as main goal the protection of all assets present...master thesis 2017

Meijer, Noor (author)Onderzoek: Dit project heeft als doel te onderzoeken hoe skateboarders de gebouwde omgeving ervaren en begrijpen en wat architecten of ontwerpers (van zulke plekken) kunnen leren van deze gebruikers. Skateboarders, voor wie autoriteit en conventie van weinig betekenis zijn, suggereren dat de gebouwde omgeving niet alleen een plek is om te wonen,...master thesis 2021

Meijer, T.J. (author)“Watch the birdie” Says the photographer to catch the attention of the child for a few seconds. My assignment was to design the “bird”. In this graduation project the photographer, the camera, the child to be photographed and the bird were replaced by the orthoptist, a device to measure angles of cross-eyedness (strabismus), the patient to be...master thesis 2012

Meijer, M. (author)The objective of this project, undertaken from November '98 until June '99 at Hoogovens Research & Development, was to improve the description of the heat transport in a packed bed as found in the pellet firing process and in particular determine the influence of certain process variables, namely temperature, gas flow rate and bed voidage....master thesis 1999

Meijer, Marloes (author)This project has explored how design can be of added value in early phases of innovation in the context of the startup studio We Are Builders. Insights were gathered from multiple sources to analyse the project scope and explore opportunities. The goal of this graduation assignment is to create a method to execute ideation that We Are Builders...master thesis 2019

Meijer, Theo (author)The dunes along the Dutch coast serve as a critical component of flood defense. Storms and a shortage of sediment supply offshore lead to dune and shoreline erosion, posing a hazard to flood safety. To combat coastal erosion, the Dutch government decided in 1990 to proactively nourish the coast. It is expected that as an indirect effect of the...master thesis 2023

Meijer, L.A. (author)With overloaded bookshelves, CD racks and film collections containing items that you do not necessarily need to keep, but neither want to throw away, we can make other people happy. Everyone who participates in this project is asked to give away some of these books, CDs and DVDs, and will receive collections from others in return. You give these...master thesis 2010

Meijer, S.R.I. (author)Automated Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) planning is based on a set of constraints and objectives, called a wish list. This thesis concerns automated IMRT planning with a non-smooth, non-convex, discontinuous, multivariable objective function. Specifically, constrained optimization using the Long Run High Gray-level Emphasis (LRHGE...master thesis 2019

Meijer, Ricardo (author)Container vessels arriving in a port before or after their scheduled time can cause problems in the container terminal planning and planning of hinterland transportation. This in turn leads to an increase of the costs in the supply chain. Vessels communicate their Estimated Time of Arrival via Automatic Idetification System(AIS) data to the port...master thesis 2017

Meijer, Koen (author)Digitization often comes with its challenges. This thesis focuses on a new approach to innovating digital public services in the Netherlands. Innovation in the public sector encounters public sector specific innovation barriers, hampering the innovation process. Innovation in the public sector is still a little researched topic in the innovation...master thesis 2019

Meijer, Moos (author)In numerical methods, correct geometry description and mesh refinement are a challenge. By using a more geometrically based Finite Element Analysis (FEA) type method called ‘Isogeometric Analysis’ (IGA), exact geometry description can be attained, even on coarse meshes. Furthermore, mesh refinement is relatively easy, since no communication with...master thesis 2018

Meijer, Friso (author)From the 3500 kilometers of primary flood defenses in the Netherlands, a third does not comply with the current standards. As a result, over 700 kilometers will be strengthened in the upcoming years. Traditional strengthening of dikes consists of strengthening with soil and requires space that is often not available. Further strengthening of...master thesis 2019

Meijer, Ralf (author)The lifespan of internal reforming solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) is not yet sufficient. Among other design challenges, this is due to detrimental carbon deposition formations. This must be mitigated, without compromising the power output and efficiency of the fuel cell for it to become a commercial viable product. The carbon that is deposited...master thesis 2021

Meijer, S.J.J. (author)Optimisation of transport networks can yield substantial reductions in transport costs and improve the quality of service for the users of these networks. When optimising intermodal rail-road networks, organising large transport volumes on transport links is key for bringing down the costs per container-kilometre. By bundling container flows in...master thesis 2012
