A design study was performed that investigated the feasibility of a business concept combining a unified supply chain with automated vending points in the floriculture sector. In such a business, a direct link between production (growers of flowers) and customers exists. The added value along the chain can then remain with the growers. This...

The aeronautical industry has set ambitious goals to reduce its environmental impact and become sustainable. Addressing rising emissions involves strategies such as reducing structural weight, due to its direct impact on fuel consumption, and the use of new materials and manufacturing techniques. Research and development on thermoplastic...

The human operator's manual control behaviour under time-invariant conditions has been successfully modelled. However, significant gaps remain in understanding and modelling adaptive manual control behaviour under time-varying conditions. One such less-understood aspect is the pilot's ability to detect changes in time-varying controlled element...

The primary objective is to explore the relationship between support for Universal Basic Income (latterly referred to as UBI), labor participation, and poverty reduction in the Netherlands across various financial policies. The research also seeks to examine the behavioral responses of Dutch citizens to UBI policies, considering potential...

Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) are confronted with a significant challenge to expand the capacity of the electricity distribution grid to facilitate the energy transition. Grid expansion planning for the distribution grid is a complex problem with many constraints and objectives. Earlier research has focused on metaheuristics such as...

Bio-mediated methods, such as microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) and enzyme induced carbonate precipitation (EICP), have gained considerable attention as alternatives to invasive ground improvement techniques. MICP and EICP use biogeochemical processes to drive carbonate precipitation and bind soil grains, thereby improving the...

Gravel is a material with multiple purposes in construction and infrastructure. Its usage ranges from construc-tion of roads, building navigational channels to land reclaimation. Gravel can be obtained through multiple methods, such as dredging with ships. One of such dredging ship is the trailing suction hopper dredger (TSHD). However, in the...

In the scope of global decarbonisation, hydrogen has been identified as an essential energy carrier. Not only as an energy storage solution for further electrification in vehicles but also as a primary fuel source in processes that rely on chemical energy which cannot be easily electrified. However, at ambient conditions, hydrogen is also a very...

The effect of creating parallel welds in a single overlap using continuous ultrasonic welding on the weld quality has been investigated, with the goal of creating three high-quality parallel welds. To achieve this, multiple aspects were examined to understand the creation of high-quality parallel welds. The weld quality is highly influenced by a...

The reimbursement scheme in geriatric rehabilitation (GR) contains stepwise tariffs depending on both the length of stay and treatment intensity: after a pre-determined number of inpatient days or treatment hours, the total reimbursement jumps to a higher level and then stays constant until the next threshold is reached. These discontinuous...

In forensic science, the strength of evidence is calculated mainly by statistical models called likelihood ratio systems. In court cases, the specific-source likelihood ratio system is used by forensic scientists to determine if a trace originates from a known reference, called the trace-reference problem. However, collecting sufficient data to...

Edge AI is an architectural deployment tactic that brings AI models closer to the user and data, relieving internet bandwidth usage and providing low latency and privacy. It remains unclear how this tactic performs at scale, since the distribution overhead could impact the total energy consumption. We identify four architectural scalability...

Autonomous navigation is a critical aspect of robotic systems, particularly in hostile and uncertain environments, and robot localization is central to navigation. Robot localization establishes its position within its surroundings. This thesis addresses the challenge of robot localization, focusing on a lunar-like environment with constraints...

Recognition justice is a form of justice that is achieved when people from different backgrounds can participate in society as peers, without having to assimilate to a dominant party. It is currently not being represented in climate change or conflict models.<br/><br/>This research aims to conceptualise recognition justice for use in agent-based...

In Sustainable Software Engineering there is a need for tooling and guidelines for developers. In this research we aim to provide such guidelines. We find that for our experimental setup and set of benchmarks 500 samples gives results that are likely stable at a 1% threshold in their Relative Confidence Interval Width. Running benchmarks with a...

Private cars are inefficient in terms of land allocation. Car-free neighbourhoods offer a solution to this inefficiency by enforcing less car-centric urban design, expensive parking fees, and prioritising more sustainable and space-efficient modes of transportation. Carsharing services emerge as an alternative to private car ownership by...

The rapid advancement of quantum computing and communication (QCC) technologies promises transformative benefits for companies, yet also poses ethical and societal challenges reminiscent of historical technological introductions. This study addresses the Collingridge Dilemma, which posits that controlling technology becomes increasingly...

The operation of robotic systems on extraterrestrial missions involves long distance communications, which have large delays and make the control of any agent complicated. This problem becomes even more dominant if multiple robotic systems are used. One solution to this problem is to increase the autonomy of each robotic system such that each...
