Vos, Jacco (author)Haptic shared control (HSC) is a method to combine the abilities of humans and machines, in which human and automation jointly exert forces on an input device. According to human-centered design, the underlying controller for HSC should closely resemble human behavior. This paper aims to continuously adapt HSC based on an online identified...master thesis 2018

Vos, Dorine (author)When people think of the public library, they mostly imagine a silent place full of books; a place open to anyone who wants to access information without being disturbed. This collective idea of the public library does not correspond any longer to the way public libraries are used, designed, built and managed. In the recent years many new ways...master thesis 2018

Vos, Thomas (author)Drifters equipped with GPS-trackers have been widely used to investigate surface velocities in a wide range of coastal and oceanic settings. A detailed description of a new, cell-phone based, budget drifter system is given, along with an overview of the potential error sources and the magnitude of these sources. Drag related “windage” errors...master thesis 2018

Vos, Dirk (author)This Thesis report will discuss the development of embedded control systems for process control (in this case for the calibration of a gas analyser). The main research question being: Which control algorithm will be able to achieve the most optimal calibration procedure? A calibration bench which will be used to create a specific condition (gas...master thesis 2018

Vos, Gijs (author)Some consultants within KPMG advisory feel like the services that KPMG advisory generates for its clients, could be improved. They see a potential solution within the application of design activities related to design paradigms such as user experience and customer experience. However several hurdles are experienced within the introduction of...master thesis 2017

Vos, Jasper (author)Conversion projects are considered as a growing market within the new build and in particular the repair market within the maritime industry, due to ever more demanding environmental regulations. A development that Royal Niestern Sander (KNS) embraces and wants to exploit further. Although conversion projects are already being executed,...master thesis 2017

Vos, Amber (author)In this MSc thesis it is investigated how the first version of concrete armour unit Xbloc<sup>+</sup>, Xbloc<sup>+ v1</sup>, acquires its stability. The stability mechanisms are investigated by conducting two type of physical model tests. First, 23 dry pull-out tests are done to obtain insights into the aspects and mechanisms that influence the...master thesis 2017

Vos, Aurinke (author)The objective of this research is to investigate the possibilities of creating an algorithmic design for structural glass covers, to create an innovative methodology with a broad spectrum of potential applications. The methodology should stimulate the easy use of glass as a structural material. It should also contribute to the bridging of the...master thesis 2017

Vos, B. (author), Foursoff, W. (author), de Bruijn, L. (author), Bruijn, W. (author)In recent years, strange phenomena occurred in the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico and West Africa: a massive tide of sargassum, brown algae, washed ashore causing considerable damage to the local economy and environment. The sargassum mostly consists of Sargassum Natans and Sargassum Fluitans. Old studies concluded that the sargassum came from the...student report 2016

Vos, W. (author)Many bridges in The Netherlands are built around 1960-1970 and currently reach their designed service life of 50 years. The traffic loads are increasing and new insights in the behaviour of constructions are obtained. Therefore there are doubts about safety of these bridges and viaducts and these must be assessed. As the current safety codes...master thesis 2016

Vos, G. (author)This thesis gives a more detailed version of a proof from Daniel Mauldin that the set of continuous functions defined on the interval $[0,1]$ that are nowhere differentiable is not Borel. On the other hand, it is shown that the same set is Lebesgue Measurable. The theorems and definitions that are necessary in the proofs are given in the...bachelor thesis 2016

Vos, T.D. (author)Every biological aspect of a create is described in the DNA. The DNA consists of very long strings that contain every biological information. Because these strings are very long, finding the right piece of information is a tough job. Fortunately, we have developed multiple ways to do this more quickly. Radiation hybrid mapping is such a method,...bachelor thesis 2016

Vos, G.J. (author)Many breakwater projects start with the selection phase which consists of the consideration of alternatives. These breakwaters are required to protect ports, banks and habitat areas from significant wave action. Moreover, upcoming Design & Construct contracts drive contractors to perform the consideration of alternatives and design themselves....master thesis 2016

Vos, T.G. (author)Conventional computer programs based on radiation-diffraction theory are not able to predict the motions of a semi-submersible crane vessel in case the pontoons are only slightly submerged. Cause of the erroneous results are non-linearities like breaking waves on top of the pontoons and emergence of the pontoons itself. Objective of this thesis...master thesis 2015

Vos, A. (author)In the highly competitive seaport industry, the optimization of operations in the container terminals is of great importance. The automated guided vehicles (AGVs) transport containers from the quay to the yard and vice versa. A max-plus-linear model is derived and by using a MILP formulation, the optimal schedule can be obtained. Due to the...master thesis 2015

Vos, K. (author)Over the last decades the costs of drilling oil and gas wells have soared. One of the ways to reduce drilling costs is to drill the wells at a faster rate. This can be done by changing operational parameters, like the rotational velocity of the drill string or the weight on the bit. However, increasing these parameters can lead to violent...master thesis 2015
