van Manen, Rijk (author)Compliant mechanisms accomplish their function due to the elastic deformation of their elements rather than using the relative motion of rigid bodies. Thereby the drawbacks of sliding friction, including wear and hysteresis are eliminated. Besides that compliant mechanisms allows monolithic production which facilitates cost reduction and...master thesis 2017

Cancrinus, Nick (author), Max, Gyula (author)Nowadays, localization of cars is mostly done using GPS. Some major disadvantages of this method are that it is not very accurate and that it cannot be used indoors. These disadvantages do not form a major problem when an active human driver is controlling the car, but will become more critical when the autonomy of vehicles increases. The goal...bachelor thesis 2017
