de Kloet, Q. (author)There has been a lot of research done into traffic on roads and multiple traffic models have been set up for this type of traffic. A subject that has been largely neglected is the traffic on fairways. The research goal set for my graduation project is to define a model that can simulate the traffic on fairways and use this model to optimize the...master thesis 2016

Zijlstra, J. (author)In the past few decades telescopes have given us insight into the structures of the observable universe. Current and future astronomical research investigate problems that concern how these structures have been formed and at which rates cosmic structures grow. The redshift of galaxies plays a fundamental role in this research directions, since...master thesis 2016

Van Es, M. (author)The main idea behind the project was to construct some sort of tool that could help runners, with a TomTom sports watch, in their training, by analysing the data that TomTom has available. Although, still far from reaching the desired goal, this project resulted in many useful insights. In order to construct such a tool training performance and...master thesis 2016

Kool, F.S. (author)The likelihood ratio is a generally accepted measure for the strength of evidence in forensic comparison problems. These problems concern comparisons where it is investigated whether at least two items come from the same source or not, e.g. whether the DNA on the crime scene comes from the suspect or not. The use of likelihood ratios by forensic...master thesis 2016

de Smit, K.W. (author)In deze scriptie bestuderen we het aantal kruisingen in een graaf waarbij de knopen in verschillende horizontale levels verdeeld zijn, ook wel het MLCM (Multi-Level Crossing Minimization) probleem genoemd. Vaak wordt een gerichte graaf afgebeeld als een multi-level graaf. We bekijken een voorbeeld van een gerichte graaf: de stamboom van TU Delft...bachelor thesis 2016

Kapusuzoğlu, B. (author)The thesis is focused on the current state-of-the-art of modeling turbulent single-phase and turbulent two-phase stratified flows. This report is meant to identify and validate the most suitable candidate model for inclusion in the multiphase flow models that are being developed in the Scientific Computing group of the Delft Institute for...master thesis 2016

Alberts, J.S.C. (author)This thesis discusses dimension reduction of the risk drivers that determine embedded option values by using the class of State Space Hidden Markov Models. As embedded options are typically valued by nested Monte Carlo simulations, this dimension reduction leads to a major reduction in computing time. This is especially important for insurance...master thesis 2016

Posthoorn, C. (author)The public transport sector in the Netherlands strives to zero emission. One way to reach this goal is to replace diesel buses with electric buses. A problem that arises is that the vehicle scheduling problem (VSP) changes. In this thesis we will develop two models for solving the electric vehicle scheduling problem (e-VSP). One of these models...master thesis 2016

de Haas, J.J. (author)In this report we applied the marginal structural model and the naive Cox model on a simulated dataset, in order to find differences between these models. The marginal structural model is used to estimate causal effects in case of time-dependent confounding via inverse probability weights. The naive Cox model may produce a bias estimate of the...master thesis 2016

Gianolio, A. (author)The aim of this research is to extend the classical LMM to a multi-curve framework and to analyze the impact of this extended model on the most liquid exotic interest rate derivatives. A possible parametrization for the instantaneous volatility and correlation structure is presented and the (log-)normal dynamics of the OIS rates under different...master thesis 2016

Stolovytskyi, V. (author)Renewable energy sources become more and more popular among residential electricity customers in Germany due to the state funding and low rates. The integration of the renewable sources into the low voltage grid requires the grid planning process which involves using the household load profiles with high time resolution (e.g., 15 s). Only a...master thesis 2016

van der Meer, R. (author)The resource theory approach is a recently developed framework used in the study of thermodynamics for finite sized quantum systems. A simple way to describe how a quantum system evolves under energy-preserving unitaries while interacting with thermal reservoirs, has been formulated in the framework of thermal operations. Despite the conceptual...bachelor thesis 2016

Velthoen, J.J. (author)The estimation of extreme quantile curves of a family of conditional distributions is a non-trivial problem, due to the data-sparseness in the tail of the distribution. This thesis considers the problem of post-processing extreme precipitation forecasts in Friesland from the numerical weather prediction model HARMONIE. Assuming forecasts are...master thesis 2016

Van Alphen, M.N. (author)In logistics, minimizing the resource expenses can be done by minimizing the total number of hours that each truck driver has to work. This sum of working hours is referred to as the total schedule duration for all truck drivers. Minimizing this total schedule duration is the main goal in the optimization problem that we consider. The considered...master thesis 2016

Wensveen, C.J. (author)Coaches can benefit from objective information about playing styles applied in football matches. In this work, two methods for determining (characteristics of) the playing style of a football team in a certain match based on statistics of ball actions are constructed. The first method assigns a match to one of four commonly applied playing...master thesis 2016
