Oud, G.T. (author)The thesis describes how differential geometry and algebraic topology together can be applied to an existing numerical method. After some introduction, the central idea is explained, after which a chapter is devoted to error approximation of the method. Finally, a 1D application is completely written out and the results are analysed.master thesis 2011

van der Heijden, Lars (author)Missions to small bodies are increasingly gaining interest as they might hold the secrets to our solar system’s origin while some are also posing a threat to life on Earth. The small size and irregular shape result in complex dynamics complicating the close-proximity operations. Furthermore, due to the long round-trip time communication delays...master thesis 2022

Bruinenberg, Ingmar (author)Composite structures are used more frequently in newly designed aircrafts. This results in new difficulties compared to conventional metals during operational life. Especially, the material properties of two different materials can cause side effects, which are unwanted in a structure, for example thermal stresses. Many reports have been written...master thesis 2022

van Rijn, Jan (author)Remotely controlled vehicles have gained increased interest and application, like the exploration of inhospitable environments. To this end hexapods with C-shape locomotors are particularly suitable because these vehicles possess both the efficiency of wheels and the climbing capabilities of legged robots. Currently all C-legged hexapods are...master thesis 2022

Hall, Alize (author)A method to help renewables flourish is mitigating the variability that is inherent in natural resources. To do so, we explore the intricacies of the relationship between airborne wind (AWE) and solar energy to uncover the possibilities of future energy-generating hybrid power plants (HPP). Which leads to steering away from fossil fuel reliance,...master thesis 2023

Verwer, Steven (author)The thesis explores designing an attitude and orbital control system for an autonomous 6U CubeSat near-Earth asteroid fly-by mission, aiming to conceptualize an off-the-shelf solution. It addresses selecting propulsion systems for interplanetary travel, reaction wheel desaturation, and attitude control during the mission.<br/><br/>Through a fuel...master thesis 2023

Criel, Matthias (author)Thin-film silicon technology creates electricity out of micrometer thick silicon absorber layers, which makes this technology less material heavy compared to classic crystalline technology. This advantage can be further exploited with the transition towards flexible thin-film technology, where the non-modular cost can be further reduced compared...master thesis 2023

Seferlis, Ilias (author)As Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) navigate through dynamic and constantly changing environments, it is crucial that they take into account the impact of their actions on the decisions of others for safe and efficient interaction with humans. In doing so, they need to anticipate how humans will behave in different situations based on their intentions....master thesis 2023

Botman, J.N.M. (author)Ons onderzoek was erop gericht de B-relaxatie te onderzoeken, in het bijzonder de invloed van thermische voorbehandeling d.w.z. de invloed van intermolekulaire strukturen op de β-overgang. Dynamische mechanische metingen werden verricht volgens de resonantiemethode, waarbij in tegenstelling tot de gangbare technieken fase-verschillen gemeten...master thesis 1969

Chiou, Eleftheria (author)One of the main targets of Waternet, the water-cycle company of Amsterdam, is to increase the sustainability of water treatment. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to improve the efficiency and to decrease the use of chemicals during pellet softening process. However, the model of Van Schagen et al. (2008 b,c) that is currently used to...master thesis 2018

Uritsky, Vadim (author)Due to the increasing interest in modelling floating offshore wind turbines, simulation tools need to be adapted from fixed-base applications to surge applications. In this study, an open-source inviscid 3D panel method named Vortexje was adapted for surge motion and its ability to capture the physics of severe surge motion (when the rotor...master thesis 2021

Sevenster, Annemartijne (author)Overtaking on two-lane roads can cause dangerous situations, due to drivers’ errors during the gap acceptance decision. Understanding gap acceptance decisions can help mitigate these situations. Response time (i.e. the time it takes the driver to evaluate the gap and make a decision) has been shown to provide valuable insights into the cognitive...master thesis 2022
