As the power system grows more complex and active, equivalent models have become a solution for modelling parts of the network that have limited observability or are confidential or too complex to simulate otherwise. In the past decade, this topic has also made its way to distribution networks because of its transition towards an active network,...

Given the enduring issues of human-induced climate change, the appeal of strategies aimed at reducing greenhouse gases has never been greater. CO2 is the most concerning greenhouse gas due to the large quantity already emitted into the atmosphere and the ongoing excessive emissions from anthropogenic activities. The transportation sector...

Offshore wind energy is expanding rapidly as governments aim for net-zero emissions, with monopiles and jackets being the primary foundation methods for offshore wind turbines (OWTs). Supply chains, heavier turbines and deeper waters influence the efficiency of jacket foundations. This research considers a jacket-founded OWT. The development of...

In the field of urban development few challenges are as tough as the housing problem. The cause for this is the rapid expansion of urban populations combined with slow construction processes. The Open Design Systems (Odesys) methodology is a preference-based design methodology for creating and evaluating designs. For this it uses a-priori method...

Each year, over 50 million tonnes of electronic waste is generated globally, with the Netherlands averaging more than 20 kg per capita (Compendium voor de Leefomgeving, 2023). The shift from a linear to a circular economy is crucial in addressing this issue, emphasizing the importance of durability and repairability in product design....

A network, is defined as a collection of nodes interconnected by links. When this topology changes through time, we call it a temporal network. A specific class of networks, with only two types of nodes with no connections between one kind, is the bipartite network. An example is a telecommunications network, where nodes represent...

Overconsumption plays a big part in the current environmental crisis, making a shift towards sufficient consumption imperative. Since overconsumption is often a habit, triggering a stop and re-think process in the consumers' minds may be the way for reduction. Societal norms, proven effective for behaviour change, could disrupt consumption...

Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is a mathematical technique for performing simulations of turbulent flows, such as those found in the Earth’s atmosphere. Compared to traditional numerical weather and climate models, LES is more accurate in representing turbulent processes and cloud dynamics. The computational burden of LES, however, have histor-...

To reach the Dutch renewable energy (RE) targets of 2030, the entire Netherlands has been investing in solar energy, electric vehicles and other systems based on RE. This increase of electricity use does not come without problems and the most pressing one is that of network congestion. Due to this, businesses are no longer able to expand their...

The thesis aimed to characterize the effects of manufacturing-induced defects, particularly gaps in variable stiffness laminates. The primary focus centered on designing a specimen capable of accurately characterizing gap effects. A refined, element-level specimen design featuring a controlled gauge zone was developed, based on pre-defined...

With renewed interest in the development of civil supersonic aircraft, their return in the future is becoming more ever more likely. The environmental impact of emissions in the stratosphere on climate and the ozone layer therefore needs to be explored. The stratospheric ozone levels determine the amount of harmful ultraviolet radiation reaching...

Reconstructing a minimum reticulation network from phylogenetic trees is used in evolutionary studies. In this thesis, we focus on finding temporal networks using cherry-picking sequences for binary trees with all taxa. Finding such a minimum reticulation temporal network is NP-hard.<br/><br/>We introduce an algorithm to find a minimum...

We humans have drastically changed the world in the last few centuries. We have upset the balance of nature. Humanity is forgetting that we are part of nature and dependent on the earth's resources. Our take-make-dispose mindset needs to change. <br/><br/>Biomimicry may be a solution. It is a relatively new movement, a philosophy, that looks to...

Cycling, a sport with a rich history, is experiencing rapid growth in popularity (Braeckevelt, 2019). It is known for its numerous health benefits, including reducing cardiovascular risks and obesity (Oja et al., 2011).<br/><br/>Despite being perceived as a low-impact activity, research conducted by Delft University of Technology reveals that...

Introduction<br/>Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent joint disease affecting 7% of the global population in 2020. Lower limb malalignment emerges as a significant contributor to OA, presenting as varus or valgus misalignment. This deviation induces unicompartmental pathology, leading to the wear and tear of the protective cartilage. Surgical...

75% of all mental health issues arise between the ages of 14 and 25 (Kessler et al., 2005). Suicide is the number one cause of death among young people (Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek, 2023), one in three adolescents experiences performance pressure (Kleinjan et al., 2020), one in seven adolescents has depressive symptoms (Kleinjan et al.,...
