Koetzier, Daan (author)Floating offshore wind turbines offer a means to access wind resources in waters that are too deep for bottom-fixed offshore wind turbines. To operate a floating wind farm, it must be possible to perform maintenance on the turbines. A critical maintenance aspect is the exchange of a major component such as a blade. It involves a lift of a large...master thesis 2023

Klerk, W.J. (author), van Bergeijk, Vera (author), Kanning, W. (author), Wolfert, A.R.M. (author), Kok, M. (author)The condition of flood defence revetments is influenced by many different degradation processes such as animal burrowing, rutting and growth of weeds. Many of these processes are shock-based rather than progressive continuous. As shocks can cause a drop in performance, this means that the condition of a revetment can suddenly decrease,...journal article 2023

Telang, Pankaj R. (author), Singh, Munindar P. (author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author)Social commitments are recognized as an abstraction that enables flexible coordination between autonomous agents. We make these contributions. First, we introduce and formalize a concept of a maintenance commitment, a kind of social commitment characterized by a maintenance condition whose truthhood an agent commits to maintain. This concept...journal article 2023

Walraven, Marc (author), Vrolijk, Koos (author), Kothuis, B.L.M. (author)In several coastal regions around the world, movable storm surge barriers have been implemented to protect against flooding induced by storm surges and waves. These barriers often form an integral part of the coastal defense system. In urban deltas, they are mostly intended to protect urban and industrial interests, while providing access for...book chapter 2022
