Jacobs, P.H.M. (author)In this thesis the development of a java-based, simulation environment is presented. The core concepts are to support multiple decision makers in a distributed context with multiple continuous and discrete formalisms. The environment is named DSOL and is published under the open source LGPL licencedoctoral thesis 2005

Groen, J. (author)In recent years, sonar performance has mainly improved via a significant increase in array ap-erture, signal bandwidth and computational power. This thesis aims at improving sonar array processing techniques based on these three steps forward. In applications such as anti-submarine warfare and mine hunting motion of the sonar needs to be...doctoral thesis 2006

Blanquet, E. (author), Chaussende, D. (author), Nishizawa, S. (author), Pons, M. (author)Over the last twenty years, processes which lead to materials synthesis from a gaseous phase constitute an important technology in many applications fields such as microelectronics or protective coating industry. Due to the complexity of the involved phenomena, computational modeling had been required to improve technological processes and help...conference paper 2006

Karimi, H. (author), Taheri, E.E. (author)There are several methods for starting a complex mechanical system, for example a liquid propellant engine. One of common methods is the use of solid propellant gas generator that is named solid propellant starter. In this method, a solid propellant motor is used for gas generating and leading it towards power generation turbine. The turbine as...conference paper 2006

van Reeuwijk, M. (author)This dissertation focuses on turbulent thermal convection, which occurs in a wide range of geophysical and engineering situations, such as the atmosphere, the sun, the earth's mantle, indoor climates etc. The first part of the thesis comprises a fundamental study of Rayleigh-BÉnard convection in a domain with aspect-ratio four. An ensemble of...doctoral thesis 2007

Dorsman, R. (author)Many processes exist in which a thin film is deposited from the gas phase, e.g. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). These processes are operated at ever decreasing reactor operating pressures and with ever decreasing wafer feature dimensions, reaching into the rarefied flow regime. As numerical simulation tools are frequently used to design and...doctoral thesis 2007

Breukels, J. (author), Ockels, W.J. (author)For the purpose of ultimately building a fully dynamic simulation of kites, an investigation is launched into a viable model of the cable with which the kite is attached to the ground. In the model proposed in this paper, only the slow modes of motion are taken into account due to the fact that only the slow motions have a real effect on the...conference paper 2007

Sewagudde, S. (author)The objective of this study is to develop a methodology for hybrid modelling of sedimentation in a coastal basin or large shallow lake where physically based and data driven approaches are combined. This research was broken down into three blocks. The first block explores the possibility of approximating a physically based model using a data...report 2008

Verdaasdonk, E.G. (author), Dankelman, J. (author), Lange, J.F. (author), Stassen, L.P.S. (author)Background - It is desirable that surgical trainees are proficient in basic laparoscopic motor skills (eye–hand coordination). The present study evaluated the use of predefined proficiency criteria on a basic virtual reality (VR) simulator in preparation for a laparoscopic course on animal models. Methods - Twenty-eight surgical trainees who...journal article 2008

Dalman, R.A.F. (author)SimClast is a basin-scale 3D stratigraphic model, which allows several interacting sedimentary environments. We developed it from 2004 to 2008 at Delft University of Technology and implemented part of the Meijer (2002) code for accounting, loading and storing algorithms. SimClast is a fully plan view 2D, depth-averaged model, allowing the...doctoral thesis 2009

(author)Background: It is a tacit assumption that clinically based expertise in laparoscopic tissue manipulation entails skilfulness in angled laparoscope navigation. The main objective of this study was to investigate the relation between these skills. To this end, face and construct validity had to be established for the place arrow (PA) and camera...journal article 2009

Bosse, T. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author), Treur, J. (author)This paper presents a formal analysis of design process dynamics. Such a formal analysis is a prerequisite to come to a formal theory of design and for the development of automated support for the dynamics of design processes. The analysis was geared toward the identification of dynamic design properties at different levels of aggregation. This...journal article 2010
