A stinger is a steel space frame structure, used on pipe-lay vessels, to support the weight of a suspended pipeline. A stinger is highly fatigue loaded due to environmental loads, vessel motions and variable pipe loads. In the design phase, predictions for the structural behaviour of the stinger were made. However, inspection history showed...

In this thesis, a method to monitor the health condition of railway crossings based on vibration data recorded by the accelerometers installed on the crossing is proposed. Due to various types of trains and other exogenous factors, responses obtained from accelerometers vary, even when the crossing has the same state condition. As a consequence,...

The idea for this project was created by two Urologists at the Erasmus MC in Rotterdam. The design goal was to develop a diagnostic device that can be used to measure nocturnal (i.e. nightly) erections. The current device used to measure nocturnal erections was developed in the 1980s. There is a need for a modern tool that can be used in the...

During the boring of a tunnel in soft soils with a slurry TBM, support pressure is used to achieve equilibrium at the face of the TBM. When this equilibrium is not reached, when the face support pressure is too low or too high, settlements will occur. In this research settlement and pore water pressure measurements are used to monitor the...

The inner-city of Amsterdam contains a large network of vulnerable, historic quay walls. Most of these quay walls consist out of masonry gravity walls placed on wooden relieving floors and wooden foundation piles. Due to the changing surface loading conditions behind the wall and the degradation of the masonry and wooden structures over the last...

This thesis provides knowledge on factors affecting the representativeness of wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) for monitoring the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The application of WBE to monitor health parameters has become essential due to the COVID-19 outbreak in March 2020. WBE is a well-known method to track the SARS-CoV-2 virus in wastewater and is...

Due to the transition in the energy market from fossil fuel to renewable energy sources it is expected that the total installed amount of photovoltaic (PV) energy will continue to increase. To make sure that all these PV systems work optimally it is essential to have a good way of monitoring these devices. In this project an open generic model...

The thermal recovery efficiency of High Temperature Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (HT-ATES) systems can be limited due to the effect of buoyancy flow of the injected hot water. This thesis has researched the application of a Multiple Partially Penetrating Wells (MPPWs) as a well design method to counteract the effect of buoyancy flow and...

While bracing has been proven to be an effective treatment strategy for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, its effectiveness is often found to be inconsistent in practice. One of the main reasons for this is that the forces applied by the brace may be subject to constant change, while its required effect is expected to change over time as well....

To develop warning systems for flood events, create precipitation-runoff relationships, validate runoff models, or to understand the behaviour of rivers, understanding of the amount of water flowing through rivers is needed. The low-cost and novel gauging method using Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry (LSPIV) could complement discharge...

For the renovation of the Suurhoff bridge, Arup decided to design and propose a new, innovative strengthening scheme, which improves the fatigue performance of the bridge deck and extends the design life of the bridge by at least 15 years. In this strengthening scheme, a steel plate is placed on top of the existing deck plate with a layer of...

Many immersed tunnels have already reached or are about to reach the halfway point of their intended lifespan of 100 years. Around this time, several structural problems were noticed during inspection which have led to performance deterioration and durability issues of the tunnel. Often large- scale maintenance was required to meet the design...

In deep sea mining polymetallic nodules are harvested that are found in large parts of the oceans at depths of up to 6000 metres. A deep sea mining system collects such nodules using a seabed crawler and transports them to a continuously sailing ship by pumping them via a jumper through a free-hanging riser. The position of the seabed crawler...

When a patient is in a hospital, it is very important to monitor their vital signs. Doctors and nurses use this information to assess the condition of the patient. Most of the existing vital signs measurement devices need physical contact with the patient. This thesis focuses on a non-contact vital signs estimation method. Using a mmWave radar,...
