Agahari, W. (author), Ofe, H.A. (author), de Reuver, Mark (author)Firms are often reluctant to share data because of mistrust, concerns over control, and other risks. Multi-party computation (MPC) is a new technique to compute meaningful insights without having to transfer data. This paper investigates if MPC affects known antecedents for data sharing decisions: control, trust, and risks. Through 23...journal article 2022

Bouwens, J.M.A. (author), Fasulo, L. (author), Hiemstra-van Mastrigt, S. (author), Schultheis, U. (author), Naddeo, Alessandro (author), Vink, P. (author)The aviation industry is constantly making compromises when designing comfortable airplane cabins. Providing passengers with a pleasant acoustic environment without adding weight to the cabin structure is a field of tension that challenges cabin interior designers. The aim of this study was to investigate whether noise levels affect the comfort...journal article 2022

Christiaanse, R.M.J. (author)Governance can be understood as the system by which actors in society are directed and controlled. Given the trinity "Institution, Market and Organization"a pressing question is: which governance structure minimizes the transaction costs in governing and controlling in the build and service design for organizations similar to a city? We...conference paper 2022

Gonzalez-Longatt, Francisco M. (author), Rueda, José L. (author), Palensky, P. (author), Chamorro, Harold R. (author)Power electronic converter (PEC) is a key element for the successful integration of novel technologies, PEC working as inverter at novel generation technologies are the decisive components to zero-net carbon emissions in the electricity systems. The colossal penetration of IBG tends to produce several issues in the power networks. There is a...conference paper 2022

Roberti, Ronald (author)The shipping industry is forced to reduce its emissions and underwater radiated noise in order to decrease the impact on the environment and limit global warming. Moreover, a low acoustic signature can be lifesaving for a navy ship, especially during submarine on mine threats. To be able to operate as flexible as possible under these threats, a...master thesis 2021

Overdevest, Joram (author)This thesis contains two contributions to the stabilization of visually guided robotic lampreys: the head stabilization method and the head-led target tracking design. Both approach the problem that camera inputs, attached to the head segment, are disturbed due to the participation of the head in the locomotion gait of the robot. Head...master thesis 2021

Tsolakis, Anastasios (author)Nonholonomic mechanical systems encompass a large class of practically interesting robotic structures, such as wheeled mobile robots, space manipulators, and multi-fingered robot hands. However, few results exist on the cooperative control of such systems in a generic, distributed approach. In this work we extend a recently developed distributed...master thesis 2021

Larsen, R.B. (author), Baksteen, Ruud (author), Atasoy, B. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author)Container transport requires real-time control and a high degree of cooperation to alleviate disturbances and perform smoothly without unnecessary environmental impact and monetary losses. The involved operators are, however, often reluctant to cooperate as they fear loosing valuable information and autonomy, eventually leading their clients...journal article 2021

Wang, X. (author), Shipurkar, U. (author), Haseltalab, A. (author), Polinder, H. (author), Claeys, Frans (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author)Ship hybridization has received some interests recently in order to achieve the emission target by 2050. However, designing and optimizing a hybrid propulsion system is a complicated problem. Sizing components and optimizing energy management control are coupled with each other. This paper applies a nested double-layer optimization...journal article 2021

Kemp, Charlotte (author)This graduation project consists of the design of the needle control device for MRI-guided interventions. It is an apparatus that grabs and steers a flexible needle remotely, so it could be used in an MRI while the physician controls the needle based on the scans. In this way, the physician has a clear sight of the position of the needle and the...master thesis 2020

Purgat, P. (author), Bandyopadhyay, S. (author), Qin, Z. (author), Bauer, P. (author)This paper proposes a power flows decoupling controller for the triple active bridge converter. The controller is based on a full-order continuous-time model of the TAB converter derived using the generalized average modelling (GAM) technique. GAM uses the Fourier series expansion to decompose the state-space variables into two components,...conference paper 2020

Sand, M. (author), Jongsma, Karin (author)Scientific discoveries are often to some degree influenced by luck. Whether luck’s influence is at odds with common-sense intuitions about responsibility, is the central concern of the philosophical debate about moral luck. Do scientists acknowledge that luck plays a role in their work and–if so–do they consider it morally problematic? The...journal article 2020
