Impact on composite structures shows a different damage behaviour compared to metal structures. Due to the current short operational life time of composite aircraft the risks of impact damages on composite structures are unknown. This paper proposes a new method for quantitative risk analysis of low velocity impact damages on composite aircraft...

Objectives: In double outlet right ventricle (DORV) both the pulmonary artery and the aorta originate predominantly from the right ventricle (RV) and a ventricular septum defect (VSD) is present. Each DORV patient requires an individual surgical approach. In complex cases the optimal surgical approach may be difficult to assess based on...

With the 2019 European Green Deal, the EU has set an ambitious roadmap to enable European citizens to benefit from a Green Transition. One of the main goal of the Green Deal is the deployment of renewable energy sources. Within these, solar power has been identified as the fastest growing<br/>source. Within solar technologies, crystalline...

The growth in the number of political frictions and terrorist attacks have made governmental institutions focus on the preparation for threatening situations. Old threats persist and all kinds of new ones are added. In order to be ready for these threats, the Royal Dutch Army is shifting its focus from main task 2 operations (peace support) to...

A crucial challenge during the initial stages of bioprocess development is that tools used to screen microorganisms and optimize cultivation conditions do not represent the environment imposed at industrial scale. Inside an industrial-scale bioreactor, microorganisms are often cultivated under fed-batch conditions, where nutrients are supplied...

Isogeometric Analysis is a methodology that bridges the gap between Computer Aided Design (CAD) and the Finite Element Method (FEM) by adopting the building blocks used in CAD, namely Non-UniformRational B-Splines and B-splines, as a basis for FEM. The use of these high-order spline functions does not only lead to an accurate representation of...

To meet the ambitious renewable energy target of 170 GW, India is eyeing its vast solar energy potential. To tap this potential, it needs large swaths of land and massive infrastructure development. Research in the western countries has shown that renewable energy infrastructure developments has led to instances of injustices at local level. In...

The change in sea beds in double inlet systems is caused by a complex combination of factors such as sea level dynamics, water movement and suspended sediment in the water. The unchanged water depth, the equilibrium seabed, in inlet systems is important to know for shipping near harbours and wildlife in nature reserves.<br/>An idealized...

This thesis presents an energy-efficient high-accuracy temperature sensor that combines a BJT front-end with a continuous-time readout circuit. Its front-end is based on PNP transistors, which, compared to NPNs, are more widely available in CMOS processes and less sensitive to stress. In this design, proportional-to-absolute-temperature (PTAT)...

Deformable objects manipulation (DOM) is largely considered an open problem in robotics. The complexity stems from the high degrees of freedom and nonlinear nature of the object configurations. In this thesis, we consider placing and flattening tasks for cloth-like objects. We propose a practical framework to place a cloth on a surface based on...

Improving coal mine safety has become a top priority for policymakers and the Indian government in recent years. It is advantageous for the Indian government to assess the impact of current safety interventions on occupational safety in order to ensure their proper functionality. "Occupational safety" had gotten a lot of attention since the...

Transport by rail has taken Europe by storm ever since their introduction in the 19th century. Developments in the past 150 years have led to the construction, deconstruction and reconstruction of various rail connections. In the Netherlands, a small number of lines in its more rural parts no longer have any standard passenger services and are...

Fatigue strength is typically a governing limit state for marine structures. Predicting an accurate fatigue lifetime is important for structures (e.g. wind turbines) that are supposed to be out at sea for decades. It is valuable for all type of structures that encounter stochastic sea loadings to optimise the design so that fatigue failure is...

Siltation of fine (cohesive) sediment in navigation channels and harbour basins may cause serious problems for the shipping industry. Intensive maintenance dredging is required to ensure safe shipping traffic. Conventional dredging methods are highly expensive, and therefore port authorities seek for more efficient solutions to reduce costs. One...

The start point of the graduation project was including the RICE method inside the first aid kit, which was shifted to designing a first aid kit for outdoor sports. The new design focus is more valuable to develop a new product solving practical problems.<br/>During the research phase, the literature research provides basic understanding of...

In recent years, the interest for serverless computing has grown tremendously. The most common form of serverless computing, Function-as-a-Service (FaaS), uses data centers of large public cloud providers to run simple functions. The cloud providers are responsible for the operational and deployment aspects. Non-trivial function implementations...

Urbanization makes cities more vulnerable in the face of climate change risks. Understanding urban growth under climate change can help planners optimize land allocation and development strategies that are resilient to the impacts of climate change. However, the complexity and uncertainty of climate change hinder the urban...

As their name suggests, variable stiffness mechanisms are mechanical systems that are capable of altering their stiffness. They can do this in order to adapt their interaction with the environment. One of the applications where variable stiffness can offer advantages is in healthcare. Specifically in minimally invasive surgical procedures, such...

Automated bin-picking is a difficult task that requires solving multiple robotic vision problems including object detection and grasp proposal generation. Current methods use deep learning to approach each of the vision problems of bin-picking separately with the main focus on generating the grasp proposals. For grasp proposal generation, neural...
