Van den Brand, S. (author)The Gadani Energy Park is a to-be build project in which ten coal-fired power plants are established at one location near the shore of Karachi, Pakistan. In the initial situation, all power plants manage their own on-shore operations. The objective of this study is to gain insight in the advantages and disadvantages of yard collaboration in bulk...master thesis 2015

Andringa, Sytze (author)Enterprise Modelling (EM) is the process of producing models, which in turn can be used to support understanding, analysis, (re)design, reasoning, control and learning about various aspects of an enterprise. Various EM techniques and languages exist, and are often supported by computational tools, in particular simulation. The goal of this...master thesis 2021

De Bruin, W.J. (author)Simulations carried out for low salinity water flooding often do not include geochemical processes. Salt concentration, and thus the salinity, is modelled as a water tracer that does not react with the reservoir formation. The goal of this MSc thesis is to improve the understanding of the influence of geochemical processes on the mixing of...master thesis 2012

Scheltes, A.F. (author)The last mile in a public transport trip appears to be one of the main deterrents in public transport to be competitive with other modes of transport. The reason for this bad performance of the last mile can be related to the slow and inflexible character of the last mile. Where PRT systems aspire to deliver an on demand, direct service to a...master thesis 2015

Eberlein, David (author)Guidelines dating back 50 years, NASA SP-8007, are employed today in the design of thin-walled launch vehicle structures. Due to advances in materials, structural designs, and manufacturing techniques since the publication of SP-8007, the development of new knockdown factors for contemporary launch vehicle structures is an ongoing subject of...master thesis 2019

Bakolas, B.V.E. (author)Electric vehicles only become useful in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, if the electricity used to charge their batteries comes from renewable energy sources. This thesis was conducted within the electric mobility framework of the Green Village, the project put forward to test the Green Campus Concept. The objective was to design a Station...master thesis 2012

te Braake, Michiel (author)Recent developments have enabled the mass production of cheap, high-performance multirotors. As a result of this, the multirotor has found a large variety of different uses. Testing new algorithms using real-life flights is costly in terms of time and potentially in terms of materials in the case of a crash. Simulators have quickly gained...master thesis 2022

Kersbergen, Mees (author)“From chaos, order can emerge”, a counterintuitive statement but also one laying the foundation for complex living systems. Individually acting agents can collectively produce organised structures at a larger scale. Possibly the most ubiquitous example of this phenomenon are bacterial colonies.<br/>Everywhere around us, a pandemonium of pushing...master thesis 2022

de Vries, Ismay (author)This thesis investigates different ways in which the productivity of a one-way bottling and packaging production line can be increased. This is done by comparing different configurations regarding machine capacities, machine reliability and buffer capacities with each other. This is done with both the use of a generic model and a case study. The...master thesis 2020

Ghassemi, Amir (author)Destructive consequences of trapped space charges within HVDC coaxial cable insulation, such as accelerated aging, degradation, and breakdown, are some of the most significant challenges that manufacturers and users usually come up with. Pulsed Electro-Acoustic (PEA) method is a widely-used method for space charge detection and measurement, in...master thesis 2020

van Schouwenburg, Sietse (author)Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM) algorithms provide accurate localization for autonomous vehicles and provide essential information for the path planning module. However, SLAM algorithms as- sume a static environment in order to estimate a location. This assumption influences the pose estimation in dynamic urban environments. The...master thesis 2019

Bart, P.J. (author)For several years the Department of Physical Geography ofthe University of Utrecht has conducted surveys on the river Allier in France. These surveys always took place during periods of low discharge because at high or even moderate discharges measurements are impossible. As information on the flow during a flood is important to understand the...master thesis 2000

Rodriguez Rodriguez de Guzman, J. (author)Accurate timing analysis of digital integrated circuits is becoming harder to achieve with current and future CMOS technologies. The shrinking feature sizes lead to increasingly important local process variations (PV), making existing methods like corner-based static timing analysis (STA) yield overly pessimistic results. While industry faces...master thesis 2012

Mogendorff, W.A. (author)This thesis involves a case-study of aircraft engine combustor maintenance at KLM E&M, which has been used as a basis to develop a discrete event simulation model that allows TAT to be measured, and the effects of changes to the main process value drivers to be successfully tested. The main research question this research sought to answer is:...master thesis 2016

Schoenmaker, Lars (author)In this thesis diffuser performance will be simulated with computational fluid dynamics, which will be done with the program Ansys Fluent. The expanding geometry creates an adverse pressure gradient and under certain conditions there will also be separation.<br/><br/>At first a relative simple simulation will be done of a one-directional...master thesis 2017

van Velzen, L. (author)Climate change without adequate countermeasures has become one of humanity's greatest threat. Energy production by means of renewable energy sources is therefore one of the crucial measures that will play a paramount role in reducing the pollutant emissions of fossil fuel dependency. Small islands in particular are an exemplary case of the...master thesis 2017

Boom, Senja (author)The energy transition is advancing rapidly, and the Dutch electricity grid is changing with it. Increasing shares of variable renewable energy sources create mismatches between electricity supply and demand. These mismatches create a need for large-scale energy storage. Existing large-scale energy storage technologies are pumped hydro energy...master thesis 2020

Piccoli, C. (author)The assessment of port marine operations performance by means of simulation is treated in this master thesis project. The navigational services provided to vessel at the access channels, from their arrival to the berthing operations and from unberthing to vessels departure, are investigated and evaluated. In the case study, FlexSim is used as...master thesis 2014

Boschman, B.E.F. (author)The current building industry needs drastic transformation to meet new performance standards regarding energy use and indoor climate requirements. It so happens that even with new buildings, the results leave something to be desired. This Master thesis describes the specific case of an atrium in the Deltion College building. The research is...master thesis 2016
