One of the major challenges mankind faces nowadays is combating climate change. A substantial fraction of greenhouse gases are released by industrial processes, as steelmaking, (oil)refinery and waste processing. Emissions from these processes can partly be prevented with a recently developed technology called gas fermentation. Within this...

Heterogeneous materials are vital for both the modern engineer and inquisitive scientist alike. They make up a vital material class that can either form inevitably as a result of material processing (such as crystallization in metals) or can be intentionally designed for to gain desirable properties (such as anisotropy in composites). As such,...

Liquid hydrogen has been identified as a low-emission alternative to hydrocarbon fuel sources for aircraft. Although there has been a notable increase in the number of studies and technology readiness of liquid hydrogen technologies in the recent decade, there is still more research and development necessary to realize commercially viable...

This paper investigates the optimisation of Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS) in warehousing by minimising performance losses during partial downtime. Given the increasing automation in logistics, AS/RS systems play a pivotal role, yet the operation of those systems during partial downtime remains a topic ignored in literature....

The aerospace industry annually provides transport for billions of passengers along trillions of kilometers. The industry is continuously aiming to provide these services in a more efficient and sustainable way. One possibility is to consider improving airside airport operations, both current types and those expected in the near future....

Temperature greatly affects the performance of integrated circuits, and so temperature sensors are often necessary to ensure reliable operation and stable performance. The goal of the work described in this thesis is to realize a temperature sensor in CMOS technology that can be produced at low cost. In the first step, a temperature sensor is...

Conventional computing systems involve physically separated storing and processing units. To perform the processing, data is shuttled from the storing unit to the processing unit followed by the actual processing, and the processed data is shuttled back into the storing unit. Unfortunately, this data shuffling contributes significantly to the...

Designing lightweight aircraft parts to improve fuel efficiency is crucial to meet the aviation sector’s goals of reducing CO2 emissions. However, it is also important to ensure that these lightweight parts have a lower CO2 footprint over their entire lifetime. Previous studies have successfully achieved this using topology optimization and low...

Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is commonly used to optimize the power output of solar arrays for LEO satellites. Traditional MPPT techniques such as Perturb & Observe often struggle when the satellite is rotating and the temperature and incident irradiance are rapidly changing. This scenario frequently occurs with miniaturized...

From the perspective of wheelchair sports practice, there is a growing need to provide feedback on power output. Power can be used to monitor athletes' fitness and fatigue levels, thereby preventing overtraining and potential injuries, to individualize and analyze training programs, and it is also an objective measure of effort or intensity....

Federated Learning (FL) is a revolutionary approach to machine learning that enables collaborative model training among multiple parties without exposing sensitive data. Introduced by Google in 2016, FL taps into the wealth of data generated by edge devices while prioritizing user privacy and minimizing communication costs. Its applications span...

We have a general idea of what the term empathy refers to. We typically use the concept in a normative way - to express appreciation, concern, value, risks, etc, - with regard to how we relate to one another. However, the exact meaning of the concept is far from agreed upon. As such, it actually is unclear whether and how we can fairly use this...

This dissertation centers around two topics: graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) and superconductors. The aim of this thesis is to work towards combine these two topics, in order to study how superconducting correlations interact with magnetic correlations within graphene nanoribbons, such as the magnetic edge states present in the zigzag edges of...

This thesis introduces a new computational methodology to solve partial differential equations within cracked domains, focusing on coupling in-crack physics with the adjacent environment. The crack is represented discretely, allowing to describe explicitly the crack opening, which is a key parameter in the description of the in-crack physics....

Introduction:<br/>Virtual surgical planning is often used to prepare mandibular segment resection with subsequent reconstruction. Patient-specific cutting guides translate the planned resection and reconstruction osteotomies to the surgery. The accuracy of computer-assisted surgery is currently evaluated by heterogeneous methodologies for post...

Future Very High-Throughput Satellites are foreseen to implement optical ground-to-satellite feeder links to achieve multi-terabit-per-second data rates. Optical links however, are highly susceptible to atmospheric losses caused by turbulence, absorption, and scattering, especially at low elevation angles. Despite prior confirmation of the...

Predicting aircraft Take-Off Weight (TOW) has been a long-sought task by aviation stakeholders, especially for operational and regulatory bodies involved in flight planning. Unfortunately, TOW being a sensitive parameter to operational trends and cost indices, aircraft operators tend to keep it confidential. In recent years, Machine Learning (ML...
