Schmidt, Annika (author)—Enabling haptic interaction with non-solid materials, such as liquids or sediments, could expand possibilities for exploration of virtual or remote environments, which would e.g enable training divers and astronauts in simulators. To allow application of natural investigation procedures in such scenarios, haptic interfaces with several degrees...master thesis 2018

Bartels, Benedict (author)High-flying autonomous aircraft are meant to be deployed in the stratosphere for days or even months. These aircraft share different applications from and several advantages over satellites. Therefore, such aircraft are an interesting subject for research and commercial applications. They are expected to be powered by solar energy and thus...master thesis 2022

Marbus, Anna (author)The objective of this study is to simulate lumbar stabilization in autonomous vehicles through the utility of OpenSim. Considering sufficient isometric strength is required for dynamic analysis, validity of the full-body model developed by Schmid et al. [43] in isometric conditions is examined first. This encompasses the establishment of maximal...master thesis 2022

Van der Hoeven, T.R.M. (author)Locking mechanisms are used in a wide range of applications including energy saving mechanisms in the field of robotics. In this thesis a new class of locking mechanisms is investigated: a combination between a singular- and a friction locking mechanism (singular-friction locker) which is statically balanced with one additional spring. This...master thesis 2015

Yang, Yaoling (author)Quantum computers hold the promise to solve some hard problems that are intractable for even the most powerful current supercomputers. One of the most famous examples is Shor's algorithm for factorizing large numbers, which has exponential speedup compared to its best classical counterparts.<br/>However, running such an algorithm will require to...master thesis 2019

Delgado, O. (author)This thesis studies the buckling behavior of I-shaped steel columns under the effect of thermal gradients. The mechanical properties of steel decay signicantly with increasing temperature. Therefore, in case of a re, the buckling resistance of steel columns is considerably reduced due to the decrease in the modulus of elasticity and yield...master thesis 2015

Verkooijen, Paul (author)Double strand breaks are lesions to the DNA and can be fatal for cells. Therefore these breaks are repaired, primarily by one of the three major repair pathways. Two of these pathways are non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) and theta-mediated end-joining (TMEJ). These pathways leave genetic alterations in their repair products, a form of DNA...master thesis 2021

De Leeuw, A.M. (author)Uit veiligheidsoverwegingen wordt in Nederland als kruispuntvorm steeds vaker een rotonde toegepast. Over de vraag hoeveel verkeer een rotonde precies kan verwerken is nog niet veel informatie beschikbaar. Uit voorzorg worden daarom bij middel- en zwaarbelaste kruispunten vaak verkeerslichten toegepast. Bij een goede afweging tussen...master thesis 1997

Roeling, E.G.H. (author)In this thesis an existing method to localise phones in an indoor environment is extended. For this a new method to synchronise the clocks in presented. When looking at the different causes of localisation errors we conclude that the incorrect detection of the time of arrival (TOA) gives the largest errors. This is why we focus on the detection...master thesis 2013

Klemm, Selina (author)Climate models predict increased Arctic precipitation and subsequent Arctic freshening as a response to increased green house gas concentrations. Eulerian studies have shown that with increased Arctic precipitation AMOC (Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation) strength decreases. Decrease in AMOC strength comes with a decreased...master thesis 2018

Meijer, Rik (author)The post-disaster redevelopment of a city is a complex process that requires perspectives from urban, social, economic and even ecological sciences. Resilience defines as the ability to bounce back, but the everchanging complexity of a city requires more than a simple rebuilding to pre-disaster conditions. My research identifies different...master thesis 2019

Mallios, D. (author)The concept of design thinking is highly wining ground not only to the design engineering field but also in fields related and associated with business and management. An increasing amount of non designers who use design thinking emerges. Thus, the purpose of this thesis is to transfer design thinking qualities to non designers. Service Science...master thesis 2013

Wu, B. (author)As the first stage of the amplifier chain aiming for the base station applications, a highly linear low noise amplifier (LNA) dictates very high performance for optimum coverage with a best signal quality. In today’s commercial market, the GaAs enhancement-mode pHEMT based LNA is dominant. However, a SiGe-based LNA, due to its high integration,...master thesis 2010

Remmerswaal, S.M. (author)An increasing number of studies show that societal debates might be the constraining factor for implementing new energy initiatives. Environmental awareness in The Netherlands is growing and society and politicians gradually change their stance on the necessity of oil and gas. This study is aimed at understanding the dynamics behind the...master thesis 2013
