<br/>In response to the sharp decline of seagrass globally, various restoration techniques have been developed and applied; many at limited scale and with limited success. This research focuses on the fluid mechanics and behaviour of seagrass seeds in a sand mixture through physical laboratory experiments. The objective is to establish a...

Extreme precipitation, like floods and landslides, poses major risks to safety and the economy, underscoring the need for sophisticated weather forecasting to predict these events accurately, enhancing readiness and resilience. Nowcasting, which uses real-time atmospheric data to predict short-term weather, is key in addressing this challenge....

International train travel could serve as a more sustainable alternative to flying, especially for short distance journeys up to 750 km. Though both forms of transport have negative impacts, the environmental costs of travelling by train are significantly lower than travelling by plane (European Environmental Agency, 2021). Therefore, the...

The rediscovered interest in space exploration has led to plans to establish outposts on the Moon and beyond. The lunar bases currently planned are to be manned incrementally, with robots performing most work. With new trends in robotics, the use of collaborating swarms has become more abundant. To support lunar operation, a distinct area within...

This thesis presents the design and experimental evaluation of an in-line, active ultrasound, condition monitoring setup for the detection of contamination in offshore bearing grease. This process is divided into three distinct research steps. First of all, the influences that affect ultrasound propagation through a bearing grease sample have...

Over the past few decades, there has been a significant increase in the number of professional female athletes. One thing that both professional and amateur athletes can experience is the effects of their hormonal cycles. These hormonal cycles can affect their performance, and in return, their performance can affect their hormonal cycle. However...

The promotion of desirable behaviours, such as socially appropriate or health-promoting actions, can be bolstered through a deeper understanding and awareness of the values that underpin the associated behavioural choices. Various implementations for promoting behaviour change based on goals already exist in Human-Robot Interaction, but, since...

Our understanding of mental workload (MWL) is still limited compared to well-known physiological data like blood pressure and heart rate. MWL measures the cognitive resources required for tasks against what's available. Innovative technologies offer more comprehensive and objective cognitive data, but their impact on individuals and their...

<b>Motivation</b>. DNA molecules mutate thousands of times every day. Some mutations are harmful to human cells, and may lead to the loss of function in important genes involved in DNA damage repair (DDR) mechanisms. Diseases such as tumors can exploit mutations in important, driver DDR genes to rapidly proliferate. Specific patterns of...

Dutch road transportation networks are increasingly facing challenges regarding congestion, safety and environmental pollution. These challenges are intensified by increased urbanization and a growing need for connectivity . In the past, the remedy to most of these challenges laid in expanding the physical infrastructure through new asphalt....

In Dutch polders, numerous structures like bridges, weirs, culverts, and pumping stations have<br/>been constructed over centuries to manage water levels. These structures play a crucial role in<br/>maintaining water levels within predefined targets. The flat topography of the Dutch landscape<br/>combined with the collective impact of head...

The Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problem, a cornerstone of power system operations, has gained increased attention since its inception by Carpentier in 1962. OPF is fundamentally an optimization challenge aimed at enhancing electric power system operations within the bounds of physical and operational constraints. Over the decades, various...

In response to the growing demand for air travel, major airports are approaching critical thresholds in their infrastructure capacity. As the transportation sector continues to expand, it is increasingly important to address environmental concerns that arise from aspects, such as noise annoyance and fuel consumption. This paper aims to enhance...

Cyclic wetting and drying impact the integrity of cohesive clay materials in geotechnical engineering applications. Boom Clay, frequently used in erosion protective layers, presents a critical case study due to its widespread application and the environmental conditions it endures. This research delves into the effects of repeated wetting and...

In this thesis the stored energy and its fluctuations of a central spin battery with nearest-<br/>neighbour interactions between the battery spins are investigated. Using analytical ex-<br/>pressions, it is shown that for 2 battery spins and equal strength in the flip-flop interaction<br/>g and nearest-neighbour interaction J, the fluctuations...

Deep reinforcement learning presents a compelling approach for the exploration of cluttered 3D environments, offering a balance between fast computation and effective vision-based navigation. Yet, the use of 3D navigation for learning-based information gathering remains largely unexplored. Navigation in 3D space poses the challenge of having an...
