<b>Background</b><br/>Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a progressive, chronic, inflammatory, autoimmune disorder, affecting 0.5-1.5% of the world's population. Current RA disease activity assessment methods rely on subjective, labor-intensive methods. Therefore, an unmet need exists for objectively assessing RA disease activity through a low-labor...

The Random Finite Element Method (RFEM) is a robust stochastic method for slope reliability analysis that incorporates the spatial variability of soil properties. However, the extensive computational time associated with the direct Monte Carlo simulation limits its practical application. To overcome this problem, this study investigates the use...

Carbon trading sets a price on greenhouse gases (GHG), enabling countries and companies to buy emission rights. The carbon market includes the compliant market, regulated by governments, and the voluntary carbon market (VCM), which lacks strict regulation and allows anyone to offset emissions. In the VCM, carbon credits are created through...

Enroute Air Traffic Controllers (ATCOs) determine the appropriate course of action by scanning radar displays to identify and select a flight that requires clearances to ensure safe and efficient operations within their airspace sector. After selecting a flight of interest, ATCOs visually compare the flight parameter displayed in the flight...

The European energy transition policies aim to mitigate the effects of climate change by moving away from fossils and promoting both onshore and offshore renewable energy technologies. Although onshore renewables are driving the transition so far, policymakers believe that in order to achieve the targets, the power grid must have access to the...

Learning new concepts is a difficult task for autonomous robots. These robots can adapt to changes in the situations. To adapt to a situation, they should be able to determine the usefulness of objects around them. The usefulness of objects is highly dependent on situational context, making pre-programming of adaptation behaviour to all possible...

This study addresses a critical aspect of automated driving: enhancing safety during highway emergency scenarios. This is achieved by formulating the problem within the framework of Stochastic Model Predictive Control (SMPC). In SMPC, safety constraints are designed such that a small chance of constraint violation is accepted, contrary to...

Characterizing electrodes for neural interfaces is an essential step of the prototyping and manufacturing process. Sample performance can be modelled by conducting electrochemical measurements such as Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy, Cyclic Voltammetry, Voltage Transients and Noise characterization, providing insights for future use...

The surge in demand for inland vessel goods transportation has necessitated the operation of larger vessels with increased drafts. These larger vessels generate significant induced loads from their more powerful bow thrusters during berthing and mooring. These loads can lead to scour, which ultimately results in instability of the quay wall. To...

Running Specific Prostheses (RSPs) enable running for athletes with lower limb amputations. The RSP design is inspired by human ankle behaviour while running, aiming to replicate its dynamic properties. RSPs are produced using carbon fiber composites that exhibit elastic properties, allowing them to store and return energy. Unlike biological...

Several useful technologies to help people with dementia already exist. Robotic pets, for example, have been shown to alleviate negative symptoms associated with dementia. Most robotic pets, however, only have pet-like functionality. This is useful on its own, but adding additional care functionality would be helpful. A different useful tool for...

Inkjet printing is a technology that has been widely studied and implemented. The liquids that are used for inkjet printing can vary. There is the traditional ink which can be found in almost every household printer. But it is also possible to use inkjet printing to deposit drugs, proteins and nanoparticles on substrates. Inkjet printing has the...

Most of the adversarial attacks suitable for attacking decision tree ensembles work by doing multiple local searches from randomly selected starting points, around the to be attacked victim. In this thesis we investigate the impact of these starting points on the performance of the attack, and find that the starting points significantly impact...
