Bollinger, L.A. (author)Heat waves, hurricanes, floods and windstorms - recent years have seen dramatic failures in electricity infrastructures sparked by short-term departures of environmental conditions from their norms. Driven by a changing climate, such deviations are anticipated to increase in severity and/or frequency over the coming decades. This will have...doctoral thesis 2015

Fovet, O. (author), Ruiz, L. (author), Hrachowitz, M. (author), Faucheux, M. (author), Gascuel-Odoux, C. (author)While most hydrological models reproduce the general flow dynamics, they frequently fail to adequately mimic system-internal processes. In particular, the relationship between storage and discharge, which often follows annual hysteretic patterns in shallow hard-rock aquifers, is rarely considered in modelling studies. One main reason is that...journal article 2015

Root, B.C. (author), Van der Wal, W. (author), Novak, P. (author), Ebbing, J. (author), Vermeersen, L.L.A. (author)In the central part of Fennoscandia, the crust is currently rising, because of the delayed response of the viscous mantle to melting of the Late Pleistocene ice sheet. This process, called Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA), causes a negative anomaly in the present-day static gravity field as isostatic equilibrium has not been reached yet....journal article 2015

Romano, D. (author)Analyzing the Change-Proneness of APIs and web APIs APIs and web APIs are used to expose existing business logic and, hence, to ease the reuse of functionalities across multiple software systems. Software systems can use the business logic of legacy systems by binding their APIs and web APIs. With the emergence of a new programming paradigm...doctoral thesis 2015

Van der Neut, J.R. (author), Vasconcelos, I. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author)Iterative substitution of the coupled Marchenko equations is a novel methodology to retrieve the Green's functions from a source or receiver array at an acquisition surface to an arbitrary location in an acoustic medium. The methodology requires as input the single-sided reflection response at the acquisition surface and an initial focusing...journal article 2015

Budiarto, E. (author)Radiotherapy is one of the methods used to treat cancer. One common approach for radiotherapy is exposing the patient to external beams of high-energy X-ray photons. Using the intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) technique, the fluence (radiation energy per unit area) of the radiation beams can be modulated to optimally shape the 3D high...doctoral thesis 2015

Beijer-Lundberg, A. (author)Installation effects govern the post-installation behaviour of displacement piles in sand. These effects are currently not completely understood. Suitable experimental techniques to model these installation effects include field, laboratory and experimental models. In the current thesis a small-scale laboratory model is used to investigate the...doctoral thesis 2015

Çall?, B. (author)Manipulation is a key feature for robots which are designed to work in daily environments like homes, offices and streets. These robots do not often have manipulators that are specialized for specific tasks, but grippers that can grasp the target object. This makes grasping a crucial ability that enables many manipulation tasks. Robotic grasping...doctoral thesis 2015
