Disease of bone or trauma can result in significant bony deformation. Functional impairment as a result of such deformity is an indication for surgical correction. Indicated surgery is often closed wedge osteotomy and internal fixation. Manual design of a preoperative plan using computer-aided design software is the current golden standard for...

This work seeks to expand on the research done previously by the WOODY group on the ability of vegetation as a form of wave damping. Specifically in this work, we are looking at pollard willow trees (Salix Alba) and the relationship between the motion of the object and the forces it can induce on the wave flow. This was done by testing a range...

Owing to the assumed presence of sub-surface oceans, the Galilean satellites - Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto - are among the most promising candidates for potential extraterrestrial habitats within our Solar System. To this end, the moons are going to be extensively studied by the upcoming JUICE and Europa Clipper missions. Ultimately,...

Many large airports aim to have complete autonomous airside operations in the future. Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AAS) for example, launched the Autonomous Airside Operations program to achieve this goal. Our main contribution is to present a Multi-agent Pickup-and-Delivery (MAPD) model that uses a centralized task allocation mechanism to...

Recent technological advancements have enabled the development of increasingly impactful and complex Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems. This complexity is paired with a trade-off in terms of system opacity. The resulting lack of understanding combined with reported algorithm scandals have decreased public trust in AI systems. Meanwhile, the...

Abstract—Introduction: Surgical instruments are stored, transported, cleaned, disinfected, and sterilized in instrument sets. These instrument sets have a predetermined fixed size, which means they cannot be stored or transported efficiently when empty or used efficiently for different types of instruments. This report presents the design of an...
