Świderski, Adam (author)As the Flying-V goes through subsequent design iterations, each new model requires dedicated handling qualities research. A part of that work, namely obtaining the handling qualities predictions, is highly repetitive and can be automated. To address that issue, a Python library for automated handling qualities prediction evaluations of the...master thesis 2023

Andreadis, Kostas (author)The last few years have shown promising developments in single-molecule protein sequencing using a biological nanopore. Using only one membrane pore in a salt buffer, an applied potential creates a measurable ion current through the pore’s constriction. If a small molecule passes through the pore, this disruption is visible as a characteristic...bachelor thesis 2022

van der Vaart, Jasper (author)The flexibility of the Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) format makes it challenging to blindly rely on the data it stores. This is because, to allow its flexibility, the stored data in an IFC file can be missing, incorrect, redundant, or stored in vague ways while the file can still be considered format compliant. This missing reliability is an...master thesis 2022
