van Dijk, Marieke (author)The term ‘polarization’ has become well-known in the public debate. In January 2019, the SCP (Netherlands Institute for Social Research) reported that 77% of the Dutch citizens think disagreements on social issues increase. As we mostly hear and see the more extreme and opposing sides in the media, it seems like society is divided about many...master thesis 2020

van Dijk, Job (author)The convection section of fired heaters consists of finned tubes to enhance heat transfer. However, finned tubes make heat transfer in the convection section of fired heaters considerably more complex. Consequently, engineers depend heavily on correlations to determine heat transfer in the convection section of fired heaters. The problem related...master thesis 2020

van Dijk, Ruben (author)Despite the strong emphasis on irrigation development in Southern Africa, different initiatives from technology developers, policy developers and development organizations to encourage water transport technology adoption have often been disappointing. The lack of long-term success can partly be contributed to a mismatch between farmer realities...master thesis 2020

van Dijk, Milan (author)Induction welding is an effective technique for joining unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites and L-joints can be produced through quick and cost-effective processing steps. However, due to high localized stresses in the skin-stiffener interface, these L-joints are often avoided in primary aircraft structures. Also, no...master thesis 2019

van Dijk, Max (author)In this thesis Bayesian Networks are used to predict European football matches between the years 2008 and 2016. The goal of this research is to see how the structures learned by different Bayesian Network learning algorithms influences the predictions. First the data is explored and modified to be used for Bayesian Networks and secondly the...bachelor thesis 2019

van Dijk, Werner (author), van der Werff, Karen (author)There is only a very limited number of moments a skeleton athlete can train at a skeleton track. Therefore, it is important to train as efficiently as possible. To do so, an instrumented skeleton sled is designed that provides useful feedback. This instrumented sled is able to monitor the force exerted on the sled by the athlete and link this to...bachelor thesis 2019

van Dijk, Ruben (author), Streefkerk, Ileen (author), Schuurman, Ludo (author), van 't Klooster, Floris (author), Mc Gregor, Julia (author)This study investigates the many dynamics of the Manyame Catchment and comes up with recommendations on how to adapt or become more resilient to the risks at hand. The bad politics and forthcoming economic situation of Zimbabwe has led to instability and dramatic inflation over the last decade. This has resulted in a terrible investment climate,...student report 2019

van Dijk, Mick (author)Global medical use of azole antifungals and echinocandins has led to an enormous increase in resistant <i>Candida</i> species, that are most commonly associated with fungal infections. A possible mechanism causing resistance are single or simultaneous point mutations in the genes responsible for encoding antifungal target enzymes. The aim of...master thesis 2019

van Dijk, Attila (author)This graduation report describes the motivation and processing that resulted in the Zesturn. The product is designed to make vegetable trimmings and leftovers, which are otherwise discarded, directly available for cooking in Dutch family households. The Zesturn facilitates this through converting vegetable scraps into powders that can be...master thesis 2018

Deckers, Daan (author), van Dijk, Mathijs (author), Grund, Mitchel (author), Hendrickx, Gijs (author), de Koning, René (author), Smit, Niels (author)This report contains the conceptual lay-out for two possible expansions of the port of Bahía Blanca. To determine the best conceptual lay-outs, emphasis is drawn to understand the physical system to determine the effect of the expansion of the port on the natural system. The port of Bahía Blanca is situated at the end of a ria, or tidal basin....student report 2018

van Dijk, Tim (author)In 2013, Brabant Water (BW) adopted a new goal of <1 μg/l for As level in the drinking water, resulting in the need to enhance As removal at seven water treatment plants (WPT’s), including WTP Prinsenbosch (As = 2.6 μg/l). Earlier experiences of BW at WTP Dorst had shown that dosing of NaMnO4 to an aeration-filtration system efficiently...master thesis 2018

van Dijk, Casper (author)Parcel delivery companies offer time-guaranteed transportation of parcels, letters and packages, picked up at one customer and delivered at another. The time in which this has to be done depends on the service level that the customer pays for. To transport the parcels, a network is used consisting of facilities and links, where the facilities...master thesis 2018

van Dijk, Sander (author)In this research a feasibility study was performed on introducing Zener diodes, junction field-effect transistors (JFETs) and double-diffused MOS transistors (DMOSTs) in an existing silicon 0.25 μm BiCMOS process. As a restriction, no changes to the process were allowed. Lateral polysilicon Zener diodes were designed and optimized for low...master thesis 2018

van Dijk, Jitte (author)Vessels are becoming more and more optimized towards their mission and an increasing amount of systems are considered during this optimization. Most of these considerations occur at an early design stage, where data is scarce and their impact is large. <br/>This research aims to aid designers in considering this growing forest of possible system...master thesis 2018

van Dijk, Nick (author)The human machine-interface is more important than ever in the field of exoskeletons. Current design approaches lack a way of systematically designing the ergonomics of exoskeletons. Methods with a more pro active approach to ergonomics have to be developed. This thesis extends existing methods by which self aligning mechanisms are created with...master thesis 2018

van Dijk, Sal (author)It is a given that the world changes. A changing world means that the problems society faces change too. Solving these problems has become more complex, and will so even more in the future. Increasingly, designers are the ones expected to be the ones to solve them. To that end, new design methods need to be devised to support designers in...master thesis 2018
