In oil supply chains, crude oil needs to be transported from oil fields to refineries, and refined products need to be transported from refineries to regional depots. On land, pipelines are the preferred mode for long-distance oil transportation, because they are safe, efficient, silent, and cheap compared to other modes of transport. Pipelines...

Injuries are a sportsman’s worst nightmare: They withhold players from playing, they weaken teams and they force clubs to buy a bench-full of substitutes. On top of that, injuries can cause an awful lot of pain. Regulating match and training intensity can drastically decrease the risk of getting injured. Furthermore, it can optimally prepare...

Strabismus, or “crossed eyes”, is a condition in which the eyes do not line up in the same direction when focusing on an object. The DAISY is a device that is designed to measure Strabismus on young children, this has to be done quickly in order to not lose the attention of the child. In order to calibrate the main measuring principle, the...

Erosion is a phenomenon present in several industrial processes. In dredging, the jetting of sand in drag heads erodes the sand bed. In construction of offshore infrastructure such as wind turbines, oil and gas production units, marine pipelines, erosion of material near the foundations can put the stability of structures at stake. Furthermore,...

In deep sea mining polymetallic nodules are harvested that are found in large parts of the oceans at depths of up to 6000 metres. A deep sea mining system collects such nodules using a seabed crawler and transports them to a continuously sailing ship by pumping them via a jumper through a free-hanging riser. The position of the seabed crawler...

Renewable energy is becoming more and more important in today's society. Wind energy plays an important role in the production of renewable energy. Due to economic advantages, wind turbines are often sited close together, creating wind farms. As a result, the wind turbines in the farm become interconnected due to the wakes of the turbines. In...

Corrosion on the car underbody can affect critical parts, which poses safety risks. The current corrosion protection methods such as wax, sealers and coatings are not effective enough and an advance form of corrosion protection is desired. Implementation of smart coatings might be an effective solution. These coatings contain a self-healing...

The starting point of this research is to asses possible shortcomings of the combined operation of a Dynamic Positioning (DP) vessel and a motion compensation system, with respect to the amount of energy that is used. The motion compensation system is used to allow a safe transfer from the vessel to a static offshore structure. Both systems have...

The repeatability of precision positioning systems can be improved by reducing the effects of stick-slip in the system. Stick-slip effects introduce a spontaneous jerking motion when overcoming the static friction coefficient, creating accelerations that are hard to predict. Contactless bearing types, such as magnetic levitation or fluid...

Because of its proven beneficial material properties, Alloy 617 is the most promising material for the use in pressurised steam boiler components subject to cyclic loads and temperatures that are increasing due to an improved process efficiency. The result of this research project is the successful expression of the material properties of Alloy...
