Verhees, K.A.J. (author)Op een grofmazig niveau is het begrip thuisgevoel ondefinieerbaar. Door het doen van een literatuur onderzoek is het begrip ontleed en daarmee uiteens gezet in 8 verschillende begrippen welke vallen binnen 4 subdoelen. Deze 4 subdoelen maken het thuisgevoel. Deze uiteenzetting is omgezet in een observatiemodel waarmee de praktijk en literatuur...master thesis 2014

Klip, T.F. (author)The Kloosterkerk is a 700 year old monumental church in The Hague. By analysing and researching the case and relevant literature, a design basis is made for redesigning the climate system. Several systems are developed and evaluated. In the end integrating a energy saving measures, a smart air heating system and PV panels has the most advantages.master thesis 2014

Garcia Espallargas, S.J. (author)Intrinsic and extrinsic self-healing strategies can be employed to mitigate the effects of local damage in order to (partially) restore a lost property or functionality and to avoid premature catastrophic failure of the whole system. It is well known that polymer architecture has a crucial influence on mechanical, physical and thermal properties...journal article 2014

Aberkrom, B. (author)Plated structures are widely used in many engineering structures. Most designs are poor in resisting compressive forces. Usually, the buckling phenomena observed in compressed conditions take place rather suddenly and may lead to catastrophic structural failure. Therefore it is important to know the buckling capacities of the plates and...master thesis 2014

Tzouvelekis, A. (author)Wind energy today is synonymous with the extraction of energy from wind via the deployment of groups of large multi-megawatt wind turbines. Nonetheless Small wind turbines (SWT) have been also designed for the built environment in order to extract energy from the wind, while being at close proximity to buildings. Despite the fact that their...master thesis 2014

Bakker, M.A. (author)Caused by climate change, the Randstad region of the Netherlands will be threatened by floods. This project researches an unconventional solution to this problem and uses this solution as a basis for an architectural design: by using various closable river barriers the Rijnmond area can be protected from both sea and river threats. A dike on the...master thesis 2014

Hu, K. (author)Near-field source localization is an important aspect in many diverse areas such as acoustics, seismology, to list a few. The planar wave assumption frequently used in far-field source localization is no longer valid when the sources are in the near field. Near-field sources can be localized by solving a joint direction-of-arrival and range...master thesis 2014

Taale, Henk (author)Dynamic traffic management is an important approach to minimise the negative effects of increasing congestion. Measures such as ramp metering and route information, but also the traditional traffic signal control is used. The focus in designing traffic control plans has always been on local control. However, there is a tendency to come to a more...other 2014
