The Port of Antwerp is the second-largest container port in Europe. The rising demand for container transport requires significant investments in infrastructure projects. Macomi helps the Port of Antwerp to determine the effect of different projects on the throughput of the port using simulation. In this thesis, the aim is to create algorithms...

During water electrolysis for the production of hydrogen and oxygen, many bubbles are formed at the electrodes. The presence of these bubbles causes a number of side effects such as a significant increase in the total cell resistance (e.g., electrical circuit resistances, transport related resistances, and electrochemical reaction resistances)....

The Autonomous Low Energy Replenishment Dredger (ALERD) strives to revolutionize the dredging world. The ALERD operates autonomously underwater, which saves energy during the dredging process and transit. Autonomous underwater operation drives the need of alternative energy facilities. However, due to the energy savings of dredging, alternative...

The mental model is a very rarely studied topic when it comes to human-machine interaction. Nearly all the studies that are done in this field are on measuring the actual performance of the human while performing the collaborative task with the automation system rather than understanding the complete picture of how the human is understanding and...

Hydrogen offers opportunities to develop a sustainable energy system and is essential to support the EU’s commitment to reaching carbon neutrality by 2050. Hydrogen is a solution for heavy transport sectors that struggle to reduce emissions by direct electrification, such as the Dutch inland waterway transport (IWT) sector. However, the lack of...

Automated Vehicles (AVs) are one of the most promising and intensively studied research topics within engineering and beyond. The race to develop the first full “self-driving” vehicle has started a decade ago and will continue in the future. From the traditional automotive industry and other technological companies that mingled in the race,...

The European Commission has mandated the requirement of advanced safety features in all vehicles sold in the EU from 2022 onwards. This will help drivers get gradually used to ADS, eventually transitioning to fully autonomous driving in the distant future. There are more vehicles on road now equipped with lane-keeping systems and other driver...

In the current economy, there is an increasing focus on sustainability. Green transport solutions, like rail freight, are becoming more and more popular. We will look into the shunting operations at Kijfhoek shunting yard. This yard functions as the central hub for DB Cargo Nederland and connects the Port of Rotterdam with the hinterland. About...

The amount of Heat pumps in the Netherlands is on the rise mainly because of the climate accords that hope to abolish the use of natural gas. This project aims to improve upon the current design of heat pumps to answer to this increased market. This is done in collaboration with ThuisBaas and more specifically Errico Garofalo who created the...

To design more efficient sailing boat sails and to analyze the efficiency of a sail trim on the water, it is very helpful to have the ability to obtain a digital copy of real-life sail configurations. As a step towards obtaining such digital copies, the Sailing Innovation Centre in collaboration with GeoDelta has created point cloud measurements...

As technology evolves, transmission speeds become faster. Tactile Internet requires ultra-low-latency (ULL) communications to further immerse humans in a remote environment by transmitting movement and force feedback, allowing them to interact with that environment in real-time. However, no transmission speed can be fast enough to support the "1...

Shared mobility systems allow individuals to rent vehicles on an as-needed basis. The benefit of this is that these individuals does not have to buy the vehicle themselves and only pay for its use. These shared mobility systems are becoming increasingly popular due to the fact that sharing vehicles means fewer are required and fewer resources...

With the integration of solar panels in urban areas, where shading is a common issue, it is desired to realize more shade-resilient designs. A DC-DC boost converter is an electronic device that can be used for maximum power point tracking (MPPT). When implementing MPPT at sub-module level, the shade resilience of the module can be increased....

Illicit supply chain networks are not well mapped. Regulators do not know how goods flow from supplier to retailer. There is uncertainty about whom is involved, where goods originate from, and what quantities are being shipped. Simulation models are effective tools to find measures against the distribution of illicit goods such as personal...

Emerging PV technologies like Perovskite has lead to the development of Perovskite/Silicon (Pvk/c-Si) tandem device (Multi-junction device) and has now gained a lot of momentum and attention due to the fact that the tandem device can reach a Shockley-Quisser limit of about 44.1% efficiency. But to speed up its development, a lot of emphasis is...

The Discrete Element Method (DEM) in combination with an One Factor At a Time (OFAT) experimental simulation plan were employed to investigate the effect of a selection of factors on the mixing performance of a double shaft, batch-type paddle mixer. Most influential factors on the mixing performance of the paddle mixer are desired for...

In the field of Information Retrieval (IR), the reliable evaluation of systems is a key component in order to progress the state-of-the-art. Much of IR research focuses on optimizing the various aspects of evaluation. Stochastic simulation is one technique that can be used to assist this kind of research. It allows researchers to overcome...

The ability of musculoskeletal models to acquire metrics and simulate human motion enables researchers to perform biomechanical analysis of daily activities. The improved analysis of human motion could for instance help recognize physical decline early. The sit-to-stand movement, which is performed 60 times daily on average, is one greatly...
