Pedestrian behaviour and its relation to doorway capacity

According to the Dutch building regulations, called Building Decree, 135 persons per minute should be able to safely escape via a doorway with a width of 1 meter, which is the same as 2.25 persons per second per meter. Since this value has been based on experiments conducted with healthy students, doubts have been raised on the validity of this...

Fault-Tolerant On-Board Computer Software for the Delfi-n3Xt Nanosatellite

Fault-tolerant On-Board Computer (OBC) software for the Delfi-n3Xt nanosatellite is needed in order to minimize the risk of failures that may occur while the satellite is operating in space.

Performance analysis of ATM buffers with prioritized actual traffic

The awareness that long-range dependence (or self-similarity) is present in data traffic and will have its effect on important traffic management issues is growing. The results of performance analysis and traffic engineering considerations drastically change when based on actual traffic instead of non-realistic Markovian models. In this paper,...

Voorwaarde voor correctie van de reflectiefout, bij satellietnavigatie in een stedelijke omgeving

In dit verslag wordt na enkele inleidende hoofdstukken, in het kort de correctiemethode voor fouten die worden veroorzaakt door signaalreflecties, beschreven. De voorwaarde om de correctiemethode te mogen toepassen is dat de acht aannames, voorafgaande aan de afleiding van de correctiemethodeformules, gerechtvaardigd zijn, en dat aan een tweetal...
