The coming years, demand for healthcare will increase exponentially, resulting in increased pressure on the decreasing number of healthcare providers. A digital transition of healthcare is needed in order to be able to keep offering widely accessible, quality care. <br/><br/>Unfortunately, the healthcare sector has difficulties keeping up with...

Due to rising temperatures, rainfall patterns around the world are being affected, causing extreme precipitation events to become more frequent and intense, resulting in an increased probability of severe flash floods. Thailand is no exception to the increased risk of these hazards, which is why Early Warning Systems are being set up. Since...

With the increasing appearance of DC loads and DC sources in the MVAC distribution grids, the need for DC power systems is getting more and more pronounced. As a result, the MMC has become a promising and innovative technology that can serve as the interface between a DC and AC network. The MMC-based MVDC distribution link is one of the...

In response to climate change, the marine sector is increasingly focused on the energy transition. New marine power plants operating more efficiently and on cleaner fuels are receiving significantly more attention. While the transition to different power plants and fuels results in reduced fossil fuel consumption and emissions, waste heat...

The climate change is evident and a big contributor to the negative effects of the climate change is the energy production sector. Therefore, the energy production must shift towards a more environment friendly mix. Changing our energy sources to mostly renewable energy sources comes with many challenges. <br/>The way the current Dutch...

Climate change causes an increase of precipitation intensity and frequency, which leads to an increased amount of landslide occurrences. Therefore, there is an urgent need for prevention measures. The risk of landslide occurrence can be mitigated by decreasing the pore water pressure in a hillslope, e.g. by drainage from the subsurface. The...

The automotive industry currently has been working on developing various levels of autonomy to assist in different Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) with the ultimate aim of moving closer to the realization of an autonomous vehicle. For such ADAS, the industry has been using multiple sensors like Cameras, Radar, LiDAR, etc. LiDAR has...

Renewable forms of energy, and especially wind energy, have become an integral part of the energy infrastructure around the globe. However, the constant increase of installed wind capacity has put a strain on the selection of potential onshore locations for wind turbine installation. As a result, the wind industry is focusing on offshore...

The optimization of interplanetary, low-­thrust trajectories is a computationally expensive aspect of preliminary mission design. To reduce the computational burden associated with it, surrogate models can be used as cheap approximations of the original fitness function. Training the surrogate models in a fully online manner can be done to...

Even though Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) techniques have proven their ability to solve highly complex control tasks, the opaqueness and inexplicability associated with these solutions many times stops them from being applied to real flight control applications. In this research, reward decomposition explanations are used to tackle this...

As Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE) is gaining in popularity in the industry, the models developed with the technology grow in complexity. The larger KBE models suffer from long (re)generation times and outgrow the memory resources of standard desktop computer. In the meantime, the number of cores present in computer’s processors is steadily...

This study evaluates the face validity of the Participatory Value Evaluation (PVE) method. The PVE is an online method that enables participation for a large group of participants. This method is designed for citizens to evaluate a complex situation from a policy makers point of view. If a consultation lacks face validity, there is a likelihood...

Distributing power and data around a garment is a common problem in sensor enabled e-textiles, as connecting separate electronic subsystems together using connectors and wires has proven to be unreliable and cumbersome. In this work a solution is presented that will eliminate the connectors by using two pairs of short-range wireless inductive...

In the modern day there exist many different ways that someone can steal your authentication cookies. Each of those ways needs to be mitigated through many different solutions. Would it not be better if instead of preventing theft, we could prevent the use of stolen cookies? This thesis therefore researches both existing and novel solutions that...

An improvement for pedicle screws would be if the screws can directly transfer their forces to the strong cortical bone of the vertebra, rather than through the softer cancellous bone. This approach requires the creation of a curved trajectory through cancellous bone. The goal of this project is to adapt the flexible oscillating drill design of...

Metamaterials derive their properties from microstructure rather than from bulk material properties. This opens property spaces that are difficult, or impossible, to access with traditional methods. However, exploring this vast design space remains challenging because classical techniques can be computationally inefficient. Recent years has seen...

One of the main components used in superconducting quantum chips is the Josephson junction. Currently when fabricating Josephson junctions, the resistance uniformity at wafer-scale is not optimal. It is also known that an annealing process can alter the junction resistance and with it the qubit frequency. However, laser annealing has only shown...

The experience of using a car can be defined as a lot of things. How comfortable it is to drive in? Or just sit in? What entertainment features does the car have that can keep all passengers entertained for a car journey? Or even for the more extreme motor heads, how does the engine sound when going through a tunnel? All of these factors shape...

Understanding the fatigue load history of wind turbines is critical for taking decisions regarding the lifetime of a project. However, direct measurement of fatigue loads at each turbine in a wind farm is unfeasible. For this reason, surrogate models offer a useful alternative. In this thesis, a methodology for creating surrogate models for...
