Rietema, Bertie (author)Offshore structures are often founded on mud-mat foundations which prevent the structure from settling excessively. Pressure differences are generated under mud-mats during removal from the seabed. These differences lead to a force that resists the uplift. A literature study on breakout resulted in a hypothesized distinction of four mechanisms...master thesis 2022

Bryan, Lotte (author)Emission of ammonia and nitrogen oxides puts pressure on vulnerable ecosystems in The Netherlands. Satellite data from TROPOMI and CrIS gives vertical column density (VCD) maps for nitrogen dioxide and ammonia respectively. The Flux-Divergence method converts a VCD map to an emission map, by temporally averaging the divergence of the flux of the...master thesis 2022

Jebbink, Rinke (author)This research explored potential designs of an innovative mitigation strategy to combat the aircraft-produced ultrafine particle (UFP) concentrations at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS). This technique is based on the principle that fine water droplets are able to encapsulate dust and fine particles, which clump together and eventually descent...master thesis 2022

ten Hoopen, Rick (author)An important durability question is whether military off-road vehicles can cope with the fatigue damage from extreme random, complex, and non-stationary loads for the design life of up to 30 years. An accurate life cycle fatigue damage estimation is essential for military off-road vehicles as the lives of military personnel can depend on a...master thesis 2022

Akbaba, Kaan (author)Designing structures that are more sustainable is a relevant topic within the construction industry. By choosing materials that have a low embodied energy value and optimizing the structures that can be constructed by these materials, one could potentially minimize the economical and environmental footprint of a structural design.<br/><br/>As...master thesis 2023

Giitsidis, Konstantinos (author)Trolleybuses are electric buses than run on electric power from overhead electric power lines (catenary) like trams do. Although is a service that dates all the way back to 1882, it has managed to regain interest in the recent years due to the constant electrification of various aspects of the world. This comes as a response towards...master thesis 2022

Franx, Marius (author)The ramifications of plastic pollution on the environment are becoming increasingly serious in various forms throughout the world. In this context, rivers are the most important suppliers of plastics entering the marine environment. However, rivers that contain high loads of plastic waste also directly harm the livelihoods of people living near...master thesis 2022

Lenssen, Daan (author)This thesis presents a new MPC controller which integrates path tracking and stability control into one controller. Previously these tasks were done by separate controllers, where one controller handled the path tracking while another controller ensured the vehicle was kept in the stable operating region. A drawback of this method is that the...master thesis 2022

Zhang, Mengyu (author)Quantum microarchitecture is a key component in bridging the gap between quantum software and quantum hardware of a fully programmable quantum computer. Confronting the control problem of superconducting quantum processors, an experimental microarchitecture (QuMA) has been proposed in previous work. As the size of the target quantum chip...master thesis 2018

Ros, Julian (author)This study addresses the critical aspects of injection well clogging as part of an Aquifer Storage, Transfer and Recovery (ASTR) pilot infiltrating tile drainage water (TDW) from agricultural field into an anoxic brackish sandy aquifer for later re-use as irrigation water for flower bulbs. Two ASTR injection periods suffering from clogging were...master thesis 2021

De Groot, M.R. (author)This thesis is about pricing swaptions under the SABR model or a variant thereof. In the interest market a stochastic local volatility is often used by practitioners to describe the volatility curve in the strike dimension of swaptions. It is a fast approach to inter- and extrapolate market quotes. It is however well-known that this approach is...master thesis 2015

Matyus, O. (author)My design task was the improvement of a Roma settlement in a post industrial city of Hungary, Ózd. After the change of regime the factory, being the main work source, had closed and since then the population has been decreasing. On the other hand this year the government set up a plan to invest in the city through renovating a significant part...master thesis 2015

Baron-Hyppolite, Christophe (author)Using data made available by George Mason University (GMU), a U.S. university situated in Virginia. Field data is used to validate both a Delft 3D and SWAN standalone model. The paper not only shows the difference between the implicit manning roughness approach and the explicit cylindrical vegetation approach, but also provides a comparison...master thesis 2018

Zhang, Quan (author)During the launching vehicles design and their optimization process, the implementing of aerodynamic characteristics (AC) database is quite important. Accuracy of such database determines quality of the pre-flight simulation, trajectory and even the whole design direction. However, the database building process is one of the most challenging...master thesis 2017

Bourget, Grégoire (author)Initially conceptualised by Benad in 2015 as a highly swept flying wing aircraft to replace the A350-900, the Flying V design has since been refined in several later studies at both Airbus and TU Delft. The initial aerodynamic efficiency gain estimation was refined by Faggiano and Rubio-Pascual, confirming the interest of the solution. To...master thesis 2020

Koch, Rik (author)This thesis considers the design of the sampling-driven nonlinear model predictive controller (SD-NMPC) for power electronic converters. Most MPC schemes that are used nowadays lack in the application for systems with high sampling frequencies because of their high computational time, especially when the system is nonlinear. This is, for example...master thesis 2021
