Verweij, R. (author)Simulation models become increasingly important in energy policy analysis. A literature review showed that there is demand for analysing the effect of multiple more realistic investment algorithms on the outcomes of energy policy analysis. The reason is that energy policy analysis could be incomplete without insight in the implications of the...master thesis 2013

Torres Carranza, Y.A. (author)The Altiplano Basin (Bolivia) exhibits one of the best examples of dryland river systems with a low gradient, where it is possible to obtain field data to build 3D high-resolution geological models of different sediment bodies. This study presents the development and understanding of a 3D geological model for crevasse splays deposited in this...master thesis 2013

Ramamurthy, P.P. (author)The need for increased computing capability and more diverse hardware with its evermore complex topologies continues to grow. The use of multicore processors, which is quite established in the desktop computers, is gaining importance in the embedded systems for industrial applications. Because of the complexity of the environment and the special...master thesis 2013

Huibregtse, W.P. (author)This thesis focusses on the north-eastward shifting beach at Brouwersdam, which poses a problem for users and stakeholders of the beach. This trend is likely to continue in the foreseeable future and could result in a beach that can no longer fulfil its current functions, like recreation and tourism. Analysis of bathymetric data from the last...master thesis 2013

Boeters, R. (author)Where Level of Detail (LoD) allow City Geography Markup Language (CityGML) models to be shared over different application domains, only one LoD defines building interiors. As there are potentially numerous applications with a need for building interiors (but not with all the details as defined in LoD4), in order to attain a larger applicability...master thesis 2013

Breeveld, B.J.S. (author)Designing and modelling foundation structures crosses two engineering disciplines. The structural engineer who designs the structure and the geotechnical engineer who determines the bearing capacity of the soil. When modelling large shallow foundations, it is not always clear how to determine the stiffness of the soil and how it should be used...master thesis 2013

De Blaeij, T. (author)Monopiles are being used more extensively for offshore wind turbine foundation. Current guidelines on the construction of fixed offshore foundations still base the design of laterally loaded piles in sand on empirical data (p-y curves), originating from the oil and gas industry, from field tests executed in 1974 on 0.61 m diameter piles. However...master thesis 2013

Clement, L.C. (author)The design of current industrial crystallizers is strongly focused on optimisation of known types of crystallization equipment. To get a better control over the physical events governing crystalline product quality the TU Delft started with the development of a task based design (TBD) strategy, which is an example of a phenomena based approach....master thesis 2012

Hoekstra, T. (author)Today, timber structures are receiving attention more and more. Because of the increasing interest in sustainable construction as well as for other reasons, building industry in Europe is (re)-discovering multi-storey timber structures for construction of mid-rise buildings. In this master’s thesis, an analytical calculation method and modelling...master thesis 2012

Scheel, F. (author)Tidal inlet systems, as found in the Dutch Wadden Sea, often feature both sand and mud. Due to differences in sediment properties, sand and mud particles respond different to identical forcing conditions, like short waves and tidal currents. Because of this, sand and mud can get transported to different locations. This process is referred to by...master thesis 2012

Bergsma, E.W.J. (author)In 2010, a realignment of the main channel of the Maumusson inlet, France, is observed. This breach of the ebb-delta is observed not long after a severe storm that afflicted the Charente-Maritime region in February 2010; Xynthia. A strong link between the breach and the Xynthia storm is expected: a storm event driven breach. In order to assess...master thesis 2012

Van Diepen, A.P. (author)In the past decades there has been a steep increase in global trade. The current crises however emphasize that trends can change quickly and have a lasting effect on the economy. Due to their large, long term investments, ports in particular need a good understanding of the future state of transport and logistics systems. Scenario based modeling...master thesis 2012

Vos, G.J. (author)An overdose of sediment from the Cilalawi River is going into the reservoir Waduk Jatiluhur. This is resulting in the problem of reservoir capacity reduction. With water still coming from different rivers, the future will be inundation. In this matter the recommendation for this problem is check dam(s) and changing land use, stated by the local...bachelor thesis 2012

Wijnsma, T.G. (author)The ORTEC Consulting Group (OCG) advises express service providers on efficient network design. A part of the challenge to this design is the hub location problem (HLP). The HLP consists of selecting optimal locations for large sorting centres (hubs) from a range of smaller sorting centres (depots) to which the rest of these depots can connect....master thesis 2011

Koolen, G.J.H.M. (author)With the use of the process-based geological model Delft3D a base case model is set up to simulate the Brent delta using Gullfaks field conditions as appeared during the Aalenian and Bajocian periods in the Mid-Jurassic. The aim is to visualize and comprehend the morphology and stratigraphy of the base case upon changing both wave conditions and...master thesis 2011

The, M.T.A. (author)In this report a model for the ingrowth of a prosthesis in a bone will be formulated and simulated. First an overview is given of all the biological processes that are part of this healing process and what external factors can influence this process. Then a first mathematical model is presented in which the mechanical stimuli (one of the...bachelor thesis 2010

McCall, R.T. (author)The primary objective of this thesis is to generate a 2DH-numerical model to simulate dune overwash. The first stage in this is achieved by modifying the program code of an existing overwash model in development, XBeach, to enable 2DH calculations. In the second stage the hydrodynamics of the model are verified using theoretical and laboratory...master thesis 2008

Mackay, R. (author)Kantoortypologie. Er kunnen geen verschillende typen kantoorgebouw worden onderscheiden, maar wel een aantal typologische eigenschappen, die kenmerkend zijn voor kantoorgebouwen die gebouwd zijn in de periode 1965-1985. Als de constante eigenschappen worden weggelaten, blijven er 19 variabelen over die het kantoorgebouw beschrijven en 18...master thesis 2008
