The nonlinear effect of combining uncertainties on the energy yield of an offshore wind farm

Offshore wind energy is expected to grow in the coming years: future plans for offshore wind farms total more than 98 GW. Financing is needed to realise these plans. Investment decisions partly depend on the uncertainty in energy yield predictions. It is therefore important that these energy yield predictions and their corresponding uncertainty...

Quantitative risk analysis of unguided rocket trajectories

These days more and more rockets are developed by companies, students and other amateurs. To assess the safety of these rockets, a method is necessary to estimate the risk of these vehicles quantitatively. Because tools to do so are not freely available, the goal of this thesis is to research methods to quantitatively estimate the risk of...
