De Vree, H.A. (author)Introductie In de huidige bouw wordt het aanbod geproduceerd vanuit een gefragmenteerde keten waarin samenwerking vaak slechts op basis van projecten bestaat. De markt is echter aan het veranderen en grote opdrachtgevers kiezen steeds vaker voor modernere bouworganisatievormen. Geïntegreerde contractvormen bieden meer ruimte voor geïntegreerde...master thesis 2010

Mourão Bento, Hugo (author)With the goal of decreasing the environmental impact of aircraft, ducted propellers emerge as an efficient propulsive alternative. Ducts are able to increase the thrust to power ratio of a propeller system by both producing thrust and/or lowering tip losses of propellers. In this thesis, RANS CFD simulations were used to analyse the possible...master thesis 2019

van Baalen, Sander (author)Research in using Topology optimisation as a tool to improve the design process of bridge design. The research focuses on implementing Topology optimisation in the design process of architects and engineers. As an example topology optimisation is used to propose a design for a pedestrian bridge in Amsterdam.master thesis 2017

Palermo, Marco (author)Despite widespread research into the possibilities of improving aerodynamic efficiency, a plateau seems to have been reached for the conventional configuration. Hence, the potential of unconventional configurations are being investigated in recent years. Flying V is one such configuration that promises a lift to drag ratio about 24 in cruise...master thesis 2019

Smit, A. (author)Many pressurized sewer systems do not reach their design capacity discharge due to enlarged resistance in the pipe system. An extensive investigation has brought to light that air pockets in pipe systems are an important cause of high resistance in sewer system pipe lines. Air intake by pumps in sumps is one of the main reasons of air pocket...master thesis 2007

Meltzer, B.O.P. (author)The heat pipe assisted annealing project is a collaboration between TU Delft, Tata Steel and Drever International. It is aimed at developing a continuous annealing line where the implementation of rotating heat pipes leads to a 70% reduction in energy consumption by reusing heat recovered at the cooling step. Rotating heat pipes are closed...master thesis 2016

Prinsen, R.C.P. (author)Individual Pitch Control has been a topic of study in the field of wind turbine engineering for more than a decade. It has been shown that a load reducing controller can be designed that makes use blade root moment measurements. Various authors have performed simulations to estimate the extent to which Individual Pitch Control can reduce fatigue...master thesis 2011

Oude Nijhuis, R. (author)Avalanches cause injuries to more than 1500 people on an annual basis. 150 of those victims do not live to tell the tale. As such, avalanches are the most prominent safety concern for freeriders. Most lives can be saved by prolonging the breathing period that buried avalanche victims have from 15 minutes (after which acute asphyxiation occurs)...master thesis 2016

De Bruijn, T. (author)Goal Create a highly usable design concept of an Electronic Health Record system (EHR) for inpatient care Research Almost fifty hours of observing and interviewing physicians at work gave insights about their use of patient data and their needs of a system to control it. The hospital environment is highly interruptible and people are greatly...master thesis 2015

Creusen, Koen (author)The offshore wind industry is developing larger turbines, often placed in deeper water. This requires larger foundations. The predominant foundation type is the steel monopile, typically consisting of two large diameter pipes, the monopile (MP) and the transition piece (TP). The Wedge Connection is a new type of connection between these...master thesis 2017

Clarenburg, Jimmy (author)Designing a controlled offshore system is a challenging process, the system dynamics are often nonlinear and subjected to loads that are random in nature. Furthermore, the proper description of the system’s dynamical behaviour involves knowledge pertaining to several fields. Unfortunately, at the design level, the process is often segregated...master thesis 2019

Vargas Solis, A. (author)The response of longshore sediment transport to the morphodynamic state of the beach was assessed with the use of the process based numerical model, Delft 3D. For this purpose, idealized simulation bathymetries that reflect morphological characteristics of two different beach states (namely longshore bar and trough and transverse bar and rip)...master thesis 2015

Khaleghi, Aaron (author)The consumer lending domain has increasingly leveraged Artificial Intelligence (AI) to make loan approval processes more efficient and to make use of larger amount of information to predict their applicants’ repayment ability. Over time, however, valid concerns have been raised about whether decisions made about individuals using these data...master thesis 2020

Dimou, Maria (author)Nowadays cycling rates in most European cities are increasing, while many governments are looking for ways to integrate cycling into the daily lives of citizens not only as a leisure activity but also as an official means of transport. At the same time, a large part of the population itself aims to influence decision-makers and urban planners to...master thesis 2021

Barel, F.L. (author), De Winter, P.M. (author)In deze deelstudie verkeerswaterbouwkunde is een masterplan opgesteld voor een visserijhaven op Snake-Island, gelegen in het havengebied van Lagos (Nigeria). Het masterplan is in twee fasen opgesplitst: fase I tot het jaar 2000 en fase II tot het jaar 2010. Na het formuleren van de functionele eisen voor de haven, zijn de invloedsfactoren op het...master thesis 1986

Koevoets, Igor (author)In the Rhine-Meuse Delta over 100 scour holes are located. Many of these scour holes have dynamic behaviour and are growing in size and depth. A scour hole can lead to an increased probability of flooding. One of the potential hazards of the presence of scour holes is the occurrence of flow slides on the foreshore next to scour holes. Depending...master thesis 2019

Verhoeven, S. (author)Files op de Nederlandse rijkswegen is een dagelijks terugkerend tafereel. Vooral in de spitsperioden ontstaat er veel congestie doordat dan de vraag naar de infrastructuur tijdelijk groter is dan de capaciteit. Bij onvoldoende buffercapaciteit voor het knelpunt kan de congestie terugslaan op andere delen van het netwerk en ontstaat geïnduceerde...master thesis 2003
