Bakker, Paul (author)For real-world problems even the most complex machine learning models can only achieve a certain accuracy. This makes it important to understand why a specific prediction is made. Explanations can provide human decision support by allowing human experts to assess the reasoning of the model as well as the correctness. Specifically, in this thesis...master thesis 2020

Bakker, Erik (author)This graduation project focuses on creating small yet spacious dwellings. Offering unique dwellings to live in. Designed and build with a robotic design and assembly strategy. Creating commercial areas on the ground floor, with dwellings above it. Separating dwellings for these families from the public and increasing the feel of safety for them....master thesis 2020

Bakker, K.D. (author)With 2,975 safety violations in the US alone, the lockout safety routine, one of the most important safety methods in the industry, remains unsafe. This is caused by the limited adherence of companies employees to the preset protocols. Heavy industries primarily focus on the efficiency of their processes and recognise the rising potential of...master thesis 2020

Bakker, B.J. (author)Building models for an electric vehicles usage data set in order to simulate virtual populations of these electric vehicle users. With these simulated populations charging strategies for electric vehicle users could be developed in order to improve the use of electric vehicles. The modeling is done with copula functions, and are compared with...bachelor thesis 2020

Bakker, Coen (author)Stiffened shells and plates are widely used in engineering, but their performance is highly influenced by the arrangement, or layout, of stiffeners on the base shell or plate and the geometric features, or topology, of these stiffeners. Moreover, structures with modules are beneficial, since it allows for increased quality control and more...master thesis 2020

Bakker, Roy (author), Brouwers, Marcel (author)The Smart Personal Protective Equipment (SPPE) is proposed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has led to shortages of standard face masks. This thesis describes one of the three subsystems of the SPPE, namely the Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation (UVGI). The UVGI subsystem provides the SPPE with an in situ disinfection system, in order...bachelor thesis 2020

Bakker, Tije (author)Small Island Developing States, including many low-lying atoll islands, are among the most vulnerable countries to natural hazards and climate change disproportionately amplifies this vulnerability. Hence, there is a strong need for disaster risk reduction and risk management. Further development and implementation of methodologies for flood...master thesis 2020

Bakker, Floor (author)To exploit its socio-economic functions, engineering measures are regularly applied in estuaries. Estuaries are, however, known to be very complex systems. Stemming from this complexity is the generation of a so-called estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM), which poses great siltation problems to the engineering measures. An engineering measure,...master thesis 2020

Bakker, Marieke (author)Amazing Grace will be needed for the removal of offshore platforms that are out of Pioneering Spirit 's reach. The base case design of Amazing Grace is an enlarged version of Pioneering Spirit (Figure 1). Amazing Grace uses mainly Quick drop Ballast tanks, releasing a lot of water at once, for lifting. Pioneering Spirit uses mainly a pneumatic...master thesis 2019

Bakker, Thomas (author)This research provide a proof of principle to use a sweat sensor system for real-time monitoring of medicine effectiveness in Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients. CF is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder affecting mostly the respiratory, digestive and perspiration system. Patients with CF have dysfunctional chloride channels in their cells, due...master thesis 2019

Bakker, Eline (author)In the past decades, air traffic growth has resulted in increasingly complex situations. In order to guarantee safety and efficiency is maintained, new automation tools and interfaces must be developed. In collaboration with the Netherlands Air Navigation Service Provider, the Inbound Traffic Support System interface was developed. This display...master thesis 2019

Bakker, Matthias (author), Braam, Ayrton (author), Morssink, Wouter (author), Nederveen, Tim (author), Sterk, Alexander (author)Raccoon Serious Games hosts so called escape events. These events are similar to an escape room in which teams work together to solve puzzles, only on larger scale. Different kinds of challenges, arise when hosting these events, such as monitoring the progress of the teams and managing collection of physical puzzles. For an escape event,...bachelor thesis 2019

Bakker, Lou (author)Recent advances in Deep Reinforcement Learning have sparked new interest in many different research topics, including Automated Highway Driving where agents model autonomous vehicles. The main advantage of Deep Reinforcement Learning is that the training algorithm is adaptable to its environment. In highway driving, researchers often simplify...master thesis 2019

Bakker, Annet (author)Lighting can have a significant influence on product appearance, and therefore on product perception. Multiple studies showed this influence of retail lighting (e.g. Baker et al., 1992; Quartier et al., 2014b). However, existing research into the influence of lighting on product perception is somewhat insufficient, therefore the goal was to gain...master thesis 2019

Bakker, Jerry (author)The Innovative Effector Concept (ICE) aircraft model is a high performance aircraft. The aircraft is over-actuated and a new control allocation algorithm has been designed previously to control this aircraft effectively: Incremental Nonlinear Control Allocation (INCA). It is unknown to what degree effector failures will affect the aircraft...master thesis 2019

Bakker, Laura (author)The Submerged Floating Tunnel (SFT), also called an Archimedes Bridge, is a state of the art solution for crossing deep and large waters. The concept of a SFT has been around for many decades. However, none has still been build up till today. A general literature study showed a number of ‘blank spots’ which still need to be researched before...master thesis 2019

Bakker, Ilse (author)Kitepower is a start up that generates energy using kites. The Kitepower system consists of airborne components, and a ground station where a drum is connected to a generator/electrical motor. For generating energy a so called pumping cycle is performed. In a pumping cycle energy is generated during the traction phase when the kite pulls the...bachelor thesis 2018
