de Bruin, Lisette (author)After decades of urban growth, mass transport, including buses, will play a significant role in our daily life. Therefore the requirements for buses and their bus door system are increasing. Ventura Systems is a company that is specialized in bus door systems and wishes to gain knowledge on their bus door system using mathematical modeling. This...bachelor thesis 2022

Hoenderboom, Thijmen (author), Hendrikson, Ivar (author)A swarm at its most basic description consists of multiple individuals all performing actions based on their immediate surroundings. The challenge for robotics is creating a control algorithm that processes these surroundings and takes appropriate actions as a consequence. The focus of this document is the bird flocking algorithm. For this...bachelor thesis 2022

van Dam, Nadine (author), Jonker, Mees (author)Unmanned underwater vehicles benefit from communication with a high data rate on relatively small distances (under 100 m). Existing communication methods are not able to provide this or present other shortcomings. Therefore, this bachelor end project focuses on a new type of underwater communication, quasi-static electric field communication....bachelor thesis 2022

Makinwa, Soji (author), van der Laan, David (author)In this report the analysis of underwater communication using electric quasi-static fields is undertaken, in which key aspects that influence the performance the communication between a transmitting and receiving electrode is examined. A mathematical model was proposed for the transmission and reception of the quasistatic field and the expected...bachelor thesis 2022

Hajer, Wouter (author)Over the past century various different discrepancies in the expected and observed behaviour of galaxies and galaxy clusters were found. Together this is called the missing mass problem and the most well known theory trying to explain these differences states that there is additional undetectable mass in the form of dark matter. Modified...bachelor thesis 2022

Huisman, Pauline (author)Latent profile analysis is a statistical modeling approach used to identify hidden subpopulations (i.e., latent profiles) within a population. These latent profiles are identified based on values of observed continuous variables, also known as profile indicators. While LPA is getting more popular in education sciences and psychology to group...bachelor thesis 2022

Backers, Frederiek (author)Out of Home advertising is traditional outdoor advertising. Over the last decade the digital Out of Home advertising possibilities have grown substantially. These possibilities include hour-based advertisement schedules, rapidly implemented changes to advertisements and obtaining location data from consumers being exposed to advertisements....bachelor thesis 2022

Rozenbroek, Dani (author)De Wilson- en Racahpolynomen zijn hypergeometrische orthogonale polynomen die helemaal bovenaan staan in het Askey-schema. Deze polynomen zijn de meest algemene hypergeometrische orthogonale polynomen in één variabele en generaliseren de andere hypergeometrische orthogonale polynomen in het Askey-schema.<br/><br/>In deze scriptie wordt ingegaan...bachelor thesis 2022

Lottering, Yara (author)This Bachelor End Project Thesis is about creating parallel variants of time-dependent methods. To achieve this, the time-dependent problem is formulated as a large system of linear equations that is solved iteratively. This linear system is determined from the time-dependent linear heat equation in 1D that all the analysis is about. The...bachelor thesis 2022

Zandee, Jonathan (author)The Game of Cycles, invented by Francis Su (2020, p.51) is an impartial game played on a graph, where players take turns marking an edge according to a set of rules. Together with the game, there also came a conjecture that gives a condition for whether a specific position is winning or losing. Proving or disproving this conjecture is the main...bachelor thesis 2022

Wong, Jing Jing (author)This research consists of two applications of image processing, namely, image compression and image denoising. Image compression aims to reduce the size of an image without losing too many features. This is often used to store a large number of images such as fingerprints. Denoising is a technique for removing noise from an image while...bachelor thesis 2022

Victor Ryan, Victor (author)In this thesis, we present simulation studies of a non-parametric estimator, proposed by Liebscher (2005). This estimator uses a well-known non-parametric estimator called kernel density estimator. Non-parametric estimation is used when the parametric distribution of a given dataset is unknown. This technique is then applied with an assumption...bachelor thesis 2022

van Delft, Jolijn (author)De 'grootte' van een verzameling staat in de wiskunde bekend onder de term 'kardinaliteit'. Omdat de kardinaliteit van de natuurlijke getallen niet met een eindig natuurlijk getal <i>n</i> kan worden aangetoond, is de kardinaliteit van deze verzameling uniek gedefinieerd als alef-nul. Met dank aan Cantor’s bewijs voor de stelling dat de...bachelor thesis 2022

Huisman, Emiel (author)The principle of competitive exclusion states that, in equilibrium, the amount of coexisting species is limited by the amount of limiting resource types in an ecosystem. However, in phytoplankton communities the paradox of plankton appears, amounts of plankton species can coexist that far exceed this<br/>upper limit. A resource competition model...bachelor thesis 2022

van de Velde, Jeroen (author)Janus particles are colloidal particles for which one half of the surface has different attributes than the other half. One property of a spherical dielectric particle with half of its surface covered by a layer of another dielectric or metal is that it has a non-uniform scattering pattern when exposed to light. However, the angle with which the...bachelor thesis 2022

Birkenhäger, Simone (author)Cardiac perfusion magnetic resonance imagining (MRI) is often used for ischemic diagnostics. However, the currently most popular technique uses an intravenous contrast agent: gadoliniumchelate. As this injection can cause problems in patients with renal problems, which are more prevalent in cardiac patients, a non-contrast cardiac perfusion...bachelor thesis 2022

Andreadis, Kostas (author)The last few years have shown promising developments in single-molecule protein sequencing using a biological nanopore. Using only one membrane pore in a salt buffer, an applied potential creates a measurable ion current through the pore’s constriction. If a small molecule passes through the pore, this disruption is visible as a characteristic...bachelor thesis 2022

Vlak, Job (author)In this thesis, we have examined conditional dependence in a financial context using conditional Kendall’s tau (CKT). The conditional Kendall’s tau is a measure of concordance between two random variables given some covariates. This thesis covers topics related to conditional Kendall’s tau such as (conditional) copulas. We study non-parametric...bachelor thesis 2022

Aanhane, Sam (author), Molenkamp, Simon (author), Vrijdag, Joos (author)This bachelor end project thesis is describing ways to use dry-electrode electroencephalography (EEG) measurements for authentication. There are five proposed methods based on the literature study, which in this report are called: ’frequency tagging’, ’pseudowords’, ’familiar music’, ’mental tasks’, and ’emotions’. First, all methods were tested...bachelor thesis 2022
