During team time trials in road cycling changing schemes are used to spread the workload over the cyclists in the team. Models that provide predictions of race performance already exist for individual time trials. It is proposed that with a performance model for team time trials, the performance of different strategies can be compared and...

The need to increase specific impulse of rocket launcher engines has lead design engineers to start development of ever more complex engine cycles starting from simple gas pressure fed engines to the very complex staged combustion cycle engines. Currently a wide range of different cycles does exist. These cycles not only differ in terms of...

Many times the railway timetabling problem is infeasible. This means a set of constraints can not be satisfied at the same time. It is hard to solve this by hand. This thesis proposed two algorithm to resolve the infeasibilities and to come up with a timetable. It serves as an extention to the CADANS solver.

Aero-engine performance is becoming an increasingly regulated aspect in aerospace indus- tries with tighter restrictions on emissions, greater expectations for efficiency and thrust as well as broader requirements for the range of the operating flight envelope. With an increasing consciousness toward these factors during the design of combustors...

THE aviation industry is responsible for 12% of the total transportation impact of CO2 while awareness, for decreasing the total carbon footprint, is rising. Both the aerospace and the automotive industry are facing an increasing pressure from society to make the transportation sector more sustainable. Within the automotive industry slowly an...

This research is aimed at the necessity and the design of a new city bridge in the city of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and how this design could be parametrically optimised using the modern digital tools that are available. Through analysis of the issues regarding the connection of Rotterdam South over the Nieuwe Maas, the city’s plans and...

Research in using Topology optimisation as a tool to improve the design process of bridge design. The research focuses on implementing Topology optimisation in the design process of architects and engineers. As an example topology optimisation is used to propose a design for a pedestrian bridge in Amsterdam.

Over the past years, numerous missions for spacecraft with low-thrust propulsion have been planned to include large orbital plane changes. In order efficiently generate and evaluate orbits for such missions, use can be made of the spherical shaping method proposed by Novak. When inclinations larger than 15 degrees are present however, the error...

At large-scale events, the large inflow of visitors travelling by car often causes queues on the roads in the direct surroundings of the event. These queues can spill back to the main road network, where through traffic is driving as well: this through traffic will be hindered by the congestion, while those travellers don’t have the event venue...

Narrowband Internet-of-Things (NB-IoT), recently introduced by 3GPP, is a relevant Radio Access Technology (RAT) solution for deployment within smart grids, the electricity grids of the future, due to the need to provide low-cost connectivity to a large number of smart meters installed in households. Outage Restoration and Management (ORM), a...

Many robotic systems rely on laser ranging sensors to navigate and map their environment. As robots are getting more advanced, smaller and cheaper, their sensors need to decrease in size and cost, while increasing their reliability and accuracy. Current laser-based sensors have difficulty to meet these properties. They are either large,...

A strategy for completing a dredging project is called a working method. The goal of a tender study is to find an optimal working method for a specific project. To find the optimal working method, the full range of possible solutions should be investigated. However, the available resources during a tender study are often limited and trends in...

Missions to Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) are a growing trend in spaceflight. The interest for such bodies is not only justified by the threat that they represent for the Earth, but also because they are potential sources of extra-terrestrial materials, provide windows to the past of the Solar System and to planetary formation, and offer a good...

This thesis research focusses on the development of a reliable and efficient 3D calculation model of an existing high-rise, reinforced concrete building in the Groningen area, in order to analyse the dynamic behaviour of the existing and subsequently retrofitted main bearing structure of this high-rise building. The assessment of the existing...

The offshore wind industry is rapidly growing, and so is the competition in this market. Normally, offshore installation companies receive a subsidy for building offshore wind farms, but due to multiple companies bidding to install for lower and lower subsidies, the point where wind farms are installed without subsidy has been reached. Therefore...

The idea for Geometry matching by multi-agent systems as a subject originates at a previous course, where the J. Sturkenboom & author came up with an idea to use the material of old boat hulls as facade elements to provide a solution to an environmental problem. The approach then was rather practical, whereas the approach within this thesis...

Additive manufacturing and 3D printing are rapidly developing digital fabrication techniques. After the first steps in printing of metals and plastics have been made, research from various groups around the world is now also focusing on printing in concrete and moving to larger scales. Using this technique it will be possible to create...
