Groot, Janne (author)Transdisciplinary (TD) research plays a crucial role in addressing the complex challenges of climate adaptation. Despite popularisation of TD research, ambiguity remains in the specific implementation of this approach. As more projects aim to adopt TD approaches, more clarity is needed to structure the organisation and implementation of TD...master thesis 2023

Groot, Jan (author)Current estimates show that the presence of unmanned aviation is likely to grow exponentially over the course of the next decades. Even with the more conservative estimates, these expected high traffic densities require a re-evaluation of the airspace structure to ensure safe and efficient operations. One structure that scored high on both the...master thesis 2021

Groot, Mira (author)Research background<br/>Plastic debris in the environment consists primarily of plastic consumer waste. One of its leading causes is the lack of waste collection systems in developing countries. Actions need to be taken to overcome this issue, and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) seems to be an effective solution for encountering plastic...master thesis 2021

Groot, Roy (author)In early design stages of aircraft, component sizing is to a large extent based on semi empirical methods, which are generally lacking for unconventional aircraft configurations. This increases the uncertainty of the performances of the generated design, such as its stability and controllability. This work aims at using a more physics-based...master thesis 2019

Groot, kevin (author)Methodology <br/>Agriculture is an important sector to provide in our needs. Since 2000, the arable land per farmer increased with 66%. To help farmers managing their increasing amount of arable land, it is important to develop new techniques in example based on remote sensing data. One of the key parameters for agricultural management is the...master thesis 2019

Groot, Jeffrey (author)To combat the emission of greenhouse gasses and the corresponding climate change, emission reduction goals have been established in the recent Paris Agreement. In order to meet these reduction goals and minimise the global average temperature increase, implementation of renewable energy sources is critical. Wind energy is one of the fastest...master thesis 2018

Groot, Ashwyn (author)Previous studies have investigated the remote appearance of Earth-like exoplanets in the prospect of retrieving biosignatures of planets orbiting extrasolar stars, utilizing the variation of (polarized) flux. However, these studies did not use horizontally inhomogeneous models that include (1) daily cloud observations of planet Earth accounting...master thesis 2018

Groot, Josefien (author)Over the past few decades, new technology-based firms (NTBFs) have been considered an important engine of economic development. Consequently, a better understanding of the characteristics and attributes of these firms has become a primary goal for researchers and policy makers. While numerous studies found evidence of the relation between growth...master thesis 2018

Groot, Marco (author)With this research the landside departure processes of four airports have been simulated using a discrete event simulation. By increasing today’s passenger numbers the bottlenecks of each of these airports are determined. An optimization to the used equipment has been performed in order to make the process more efficient. Furthermore, the...master thesis 2018

Post, Umbriël (author), van Domburg, Tim (author), van Gorp, Ellis (author), Bax, Rutger (author), van den Berg, Charlotte (author), Groot, Jeffrey (author)Valdivia is a Chilean city located near an estuary system, 800 km south of Santiago. The navigation capacity of the Valdivia river mainly determines the present state and future possibilities for the welfare of the city. Since sedimentation problems arose in the river, the capacity for navigation became limited. The ministry of Valdivia...student report 2017

Groot, J.M. (author)To limit global warming, greenhouse gases need to substantially be reduced in all sectors of the economy (IPCC, 2014). The Netherlands has translated this to ambitious goals towards a more sustainable environment. It aims to reach a 40% CO2 emission reduction compared to 1990 and have 27% of the total generated energy be produced through...master thesis 2015

Groot, S. (author)In this report a district heating system is analyzed at the Tata steel site. A case study is made for a number of buildings, which are currently heated with a gas boiler. A computer model is developed to calculate the optimal piping path and diameters for such a network. The heat losses of this network are calculated with the complex potential...master thesis 2014
