Muhammad Abrar Aulia, Abrar (author)The offshore monopile decommissioning demand will become definite in the coming years. Our responsibility is to ensure the rights and duties of other legitimate uses by completely removing the ageing monopile from the seabed to continuously redeveloping offshore wind farms within the same location. The growing number of past, present, and future...master thesis 2023

WANG, Rui (author)The stability analysis of electromagnetic suspension system applied to Hyperloop in simplified two degrees of freedom system has been studied deeply where the track-beam is regarded as a point mass and the effects of velocity and beam are neglected. However, there is little reference on the study of the interaction between electromagnetic...master thesis 2022

Tetteroo, Daan (author)All over the world, many offshore structures have been built in the last decades, both by the oil and gas industry and by the renewable industry. When these structures reach their end of life, they have to be removed. The removal is done in decommissioning projects. Many of those offshore structures are bottom founded. Of that amount, a big part...master thesis 2022

Hazewinkel, Annabel (author)Pile driving is a widely used technique for the construction of buildings and infrastructure. A popular technique is to vibrate the pile into the sediment. However, since building sites are increasingly being located in metropolitan areas, there is a growing concern about the environmental impact that vibrations may cause during driving....master thesis 2022

Kockelkorn, Tycho (author)The Haringvlietbrug, which was delivered in 1964 and connects the island of Goeree-Overflakkee to the Dutch mainland, approaches the end of its lifetime. Rijkswaterstaat and Witteveen+Bos investigate the potential use of vibration-based structural health monitoring (SHM) to track deterioration. In vibration-based SHM, a change in the structure’s...master thesis 2022

van Bergen, Annelinde (author)Climate change is a recurring topic in the news and goes side by side with the energy transition. The energy transition focuses on using clean energy generated by resources like wind and water. Due to the increasing demand for technology that focuses on generating and storing clean energy, the demand for metals grows. These metals are currently...master thesis 2022

Mas I Soldevilla, Joan (author)The Hyperloop is a high-speed means of transport, consisting of a bullet-shape vehicle travelling in a quasi-vacuum tube, electrically powered and moving through an electromagnetic levitating system. This allows the reduction of air resistance and wheel-rail contact friction, which translates in higher speeds for smaller power inputs. In the...master thesis 2022

Ruesen, Joël (author)Large-scale cultivation of seaweed presents opportunities for multiple global challenges currently at play. Cultivated seaweed can provide a sustainable source of protein for humans and cattle without competing for land, freshwater supply or the use of fertilisers. Kelp forests are known to be a solid basis for an elaborate biome that supports...master thesis 2022

Lelieveld, Tim (author)The world is transforming its energy production towards more sustainable sources of energy. In Europe, there is currently 25 GW of installed offshore wind power capacity. This is expected to grow with 29 GW over the next five years. Offshore wind farms can be expensive and challenging to build, design and maintain....master thesis 2021

van der Ploeg, Jorne (author)The offshore wind industry in Europe has experienced significant growth in the past decade, with wind farm development mostly focusing on the shallow area's in the North Sea. Naturally, the market is driven to reduce the Levelised Cost of Electricity (LCoE) to become more competitive with fossil fuels and less dependent on government subsidies....master thesis 2021

PAPAMICHELAKIS, MENELAOS (author)The dynamic behavior of structural components can largely change in the presence of damages. Understanding this behavior is of particular importance for critical engineering systems, and in particular bridges. Damage identification methods forms a key objective in structural health monitoring of bridges so many researches have been conducted in...master thesis 2021

van Leijden, Rens (author)The instability of a moving mass / oscillator due to surpassing the velocity of the minimum group wave velocity (in a continuous homogeneous structure) has been studied extensively and is well understood. In contrary to that, Parametric Instability of a moving mass / oscillator on a continuous periodic structure has been studied less extensive...master thesis 2021

Lemij, Freek (author)A rapid increase in global energy demand and the international objective of increasing the contribution of renewable energy to satisfy this demand have spiked the interest in offshore wind energy. Depletion of suitable locations for bottom founded turbines has led to a new chapter in offshore wind development: floating wind farms. This...master thesis 2021

PECHADRE, AUDE (author)For supporting Offshore Wind Turbines (OWT), monopiles are currently the most common foundations. The role of a foundation is to transfer safely the loading to the ground. The wind and the wave loads are considered cyclic because they repetitively apply on the OWT. The North Sea is sand dominated in many areas. During cyclic loading, permanent...master thesis 2021

Bolhuis, Remco (author)An important subject in the research on the behaviour of railway structures is the validation of numerical models by means of in-track measurements. Many forms of track measurements have taken place all over the world, mainly in the sense of strain and acceleration measurements, but a more unexplored area is that of the direct measurement of...master thesis 2021

Huigen, Vincent (author)The offshore wind industry is a quickly growing market because the increasing demand for clean energy sources. Large wind speeds and the abundance of potential wind farm locations make Offshore Wind Turbines an interesting solution. Because of high continuous dynamic loading and extreme environmental conditions, the structural design requires a...master thesis 2021

Karagiannis, Thomas (author)The usage of tanks has been quite common throughout the industry during the last decades. They fall into the category of shell structures and this is how they need to be studied. The focus of this thesis is concentrated on ground based thin cylindrical tanks filled with water made out of steel. Thin shells are susceptible to buckling, a...master thesis 2021

Bilbao Nieva, Joaquin (author)Wind turbines are typically designed for an operational life of 20-25 years. The operation of the assets can be extended beyond their design life if structural components have sufficient reserves left. One approach is to monitor fatigue loads and compare these with design assumptions to determine the remaining useful lifetime of the assets. A...master thesis 2021
