Muurling, Lidewij (author)Overconsumption plays a big part in the current environmental crisis, making a shift towards sufficient consumption imperative. Since overconsumption is often a habit, triggering a stop and re-think process in the consumers' minds may be the way for reduction. Societal norms, proven effective for behaviour change, could disrupt consumption...master thesis 2024

Tofacchi, Tommaso (author)<b>Motivation</b>. DNA molecules mutate thousands of times every day. Some mutations are harmful to human cells, and may lead to the loss of function in important genes involved in DNA damage repair (DDR) mechanisms. Diseases such as tumors can exploit mutations in important, driver DDR genes to rapidly proliferate. Specific patterns of...master thesis 2024

Kroese, Willem (author)Uncertainty in the radiative forcing from anthropogenic activities since the Industrial Revolution is dominated by how clouds respond to aerosol. Climate projections are limited by this uncertainty. The cloud response to aerosol is influenced by the meteorological conditions of the atmosphere wherein the cloud is suspended. Understanding the...master thesis 2023

Venkata Shanmukha Sreeramagiri, Souri (author)Energy dissipation plays a crucial role in mitigating noise and vibration in a wide range of applications. In the field of assistive devices, energy dissipation is used to improve the stability of joint motion and protect the musculoskeletal system from excessive loads. It is not surprising that considerable effort has gone into developing...master thesis 2023

Offerman, Celine (author)Correctly processing accumulated information is beneficial for our survival. Berghman and Hekkert (2017) argue that this is why we humans derive pleasure from having a sense of aesthetics. These aesthetic experiences can be seen as our brain’s reward system for correctly perceiving and interpret- ing the world around us. While our senses have...master thesis 2023

Baltes, Sander (author)With the signing of the Paris Agreement in 2015, 195 countries pledged to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emissions and other greenhouse gases, as well as to adapt to impacts of climate change. ProRail has set an objective to have emission-free construction sites by 2030, which resulted in the ambition of contractors make a transition to...master thesis 2023

Flór, Ian Matthias (author)The detection of non-Abelian exchange statistics is an open challenge which holds important promises for the advent of topological quantum computation. A recent work proposes to rely on the edges to reveal the braiding statistics of nonAbelian anyons in the bulk, in an entirely deterministic dynamical process. A time-dependent gap in a Josephson...master thesis 2023

Snijders, Kevin (author)Curaçao's coral reefs are subjected to a deteriorating momentum risking the health and therefore sustainability of this vital ecosystem. Despite the dependency of the Island's prosperity on the condition of the ecosystem, research suggests that wastewater management is likely to be a significant contributor to this effect. Incorporating both...student report 2023

Kroese, Willem (author)Cloud droplet number concentrations change due to perturbations in aerosol concentrations. The strength of this correlation covaries with meteorology. Using polarimetric aerosol estimates and MODIS-2 cloud retrievals we compute the interaction strength per meteorological regime, which we determined using clustering techniques on MERRA-2...student report 2022

van der Horst, Gerben (author)Urban mobility is challenged with increasing demand, while at the same time reducing emissions, without leading to an unpleasant living environment. Reducing the number of stops on the urban arterial controlled by the coordinated traffic controller can provide (part of) the solution to these challenges for urban mobility. Coordinated traffic...master thesis 2022

Merceij, Puck (author)Climate change is happening and has an increasingly great impact on nature, ecosystems, biodiversity and human society. To reduce adverse consequences of hazards for current and future generations, one must understand how adaptation behavior of civil societies could develop itself over time, interact with its environment and effect its ecosystem...master thesis 2022

Schriever, David (author)Food waste remains a large problem globally, not only in the light of global greenhouse gas emissions, but also in the light of decreasing resource availability. Research in this area has so far mainly focused on behavioral factors influencing production of food waste, while the formal and informal institutions that relate to the management of...master thesis 2022

Salarbux, Siraadj (author)Entrepreneurial exit can be considered one of the most important moments in the entrepreneurial life cycle. However, within the literature, this importance was only recognized recently. Research regarding entrepreneurial exit went through a few stages; Firstly, the focus was on re-defining entrepreneurial exit and giving it a place in the life...master thesis 2022
