Brouwer, Wietske (author), van Hamel, Amber (author), van Haren, Mick (author), Kindermann, Paulina (author), Verboeket, Rik (author)Like other cities in Kathmandu Valley, Bhaktapur faces rapid urbanisation and population growth. Unsafe, new settlements are partly located at the floodplains and the government lags behind in implementing proper land-use policy to control unrestrained settlement. The rivers are not only constrained by uncontrolled settlements, but also by...student report 2020

Brouwer, Romy (author)Since the 60’s the Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij (NAM) has been extracting gas from the province of Groningen in the Netherlands. This resulted into seismic activity. However, the buildings in Groningen are not designed to withstand any seismic loading. The assessment of the seismic behavior of the building stock of Groningen is required to...master thesis 2020

Brouwer, Hans (author)Deep neural networks have revolutionized multiple fields within computer science. It is important to have a comprehensive understanding of the memory requirements and performance of deep networks on low-resource systems. While there have been efforts to this end, the effects of severe memory limits and heavy swapping are understudied. We have...bachelor thesis 2020

Brouwer, Jetse (author)Distributed ledger technology was expected to spark a technical revolution similar to the internet revolution. After the release of Bitcoin in 2008, many developments have significantly increased the performance of distributed ledger technology. Nevertheless, the first truly scalable ledger has yet to be deployed. All of them have issues with...master thesis 2020

Brouwer, Annebé (author)Architecture plays a complex role in the history of Kosovo. On the surface, the Kosovar attitude appears not to value architecture for anything other than what it visibly represents. Yet, on a deeper level, this attitude reveals a lack of awareness that society now can and should take responsibility for its urban environment. It is this absence...master thesis 2020

Brouwer, Patriek (author)Our present-day society is utterly dependant on electricity. This dependence will only grow as electrification of sectors such as manufacturing, transportation and building heating takes off. Most of the electricity these days comes from conventional plants running on coal and natural gas. Despite that these are reliable and cheap, the...master thesis 2019

Brouwer, Rik (author)The development of research evaluation frameworks sparked a focus on research impact. Therefore, this study explores the concept of research impact, looking at its various interpretations, and possible indicators and enablers. Finally, a design proposal for an impact mapping tool is made, to give scientists more awareness of the impact of their...master thesis 2019

Brouwer, Max (author)Expanded Criteria Donor (ECD) organs are being used more often in clinical setting. The regenerative ability of the organs might be able to restore the organ to full functionality ex vivo. For long term kidney stabilization, optimization and monitoring an organ incubator is preferable. However, it is unclear which available parts would work best...master thesis 2019

Brouwer, Daniël (author)Mechatronic embedded control systems are becoming increasingly sophisticated and computationally demanding. These systems typically consists of multiple controllers, which coordinate the actuators and apply feedback based on data collected by sensors. Often the underlying control strategy is entirely described in a software application, which...master thesis 2018

Brouwer, Dorus (author)There is a need to know flow capacities of common bottlenecks of cycle storages because an increasing number of large cycle storages are being designed. Flow capacity values are not available from literature nor is a suitable method to determine those values. This research contributes to filling these research gaps, by developing a method to...master thesis 2018

Brouwer, Andreas (author)Proton therapy is an increasingly popular form of radiotherapy that uses high energy protons for the treatment of cancer. It results in a lower integral dose than the classical photon radiotherapy. This makes it suitable for the treatment of tumors close to critical organs such as in the head and neck. To minimize alignment errors the head and...master thesis 2018

Brouwer, Wietske (author)It is observed from satellite radar measurements that the dike between Eemshaven and Delfzijl in the north of the Netherlands shows instability. It can be possible that a development of these instability results in dike failure. The two possible failure mechanisms that may occur are settlement and slope-instability. In this research the...bachelor thesis 2018
