Malfliet, Jari (author)Wind estimation plays an important role in many aspects of our world, both for nowcasting and forecasting. This is also true for aircraft flight routes; where wind field knowledge can contribute to flight planning and safety. Aircraft can relay flight information back to ground-based receivers, from which local wind measurements can be derived....master thesis 2023

Bachert, Carolin (author)In order to limit the global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius, all sectors have to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and become more sustainable. This also includes the building sector, which is in Europe responsible for 40% of the total energy consumption (European Commission, 2020). A way to work towards this goal is by retrofitting...master thesis 2023

Speijer, Ethan (author)The Dutch government implemented strict regulations to reduce the spreading of the virus and highly encouraged travel restrictions and to work from home if possible. As a result, organizations were forced to adapt and implement remote working. These implications became the norm for close to two years. Consequently, the needs and preferences of...master thesis 2023

Marinescu, M. (author), Olivares, Alberto (author), Staffetti, Ernesto (author), Sun, Junzi (author)This paper addresses the problem of spatiotemporal wind velocity field estimation for air traffic management applications. Using data obtained from aircraft, the eastward and northward components of the wind velocity field inside a specific air space are calculated as functions of time. Both short-term wind velocity field forecasting and wind...journal article 2023

Banerjee, I. (author)In a dynamic or disruptive situation, such as disasters, a fully mobile and decentralized infrastructure-less network seems to be a viable option for communication. Citizens are confronted with challenges such as complicated deployment of these networks, resource-constrained mobile phones and mobility. This requires communication networks to...doctoral thesis 2022

Heegstra, Sjoerd (author)Interest in biogas has increased due to natural gas shortages and the energy transition. Most digesters in the EU have internal heating for process stability. Unheated reactors could potentially lower costs, but have decreased kinetics due to low operational temperatures, especially in winter. This raises the question how seasonal temperature...master thesis 2022

van Haaften, Myrthe (author)Many machine learning models have been developed to aid in the diagnosis of dementia, to predict dementia risk and to determine cognitive performance. While it is well known that vascular pathology is a critical contributing factor to dementia, cerebral small vessel disease is often not addressed by these methods, possibly causing impeded...master thesis 2022

Govindasamy, Ilambharathi (author)Fluid flows such as rowing and animal flight involve both acceleration and vortex shedding. Some of such flows also involve complex fluids, as in blood flow from the left atrium into the left ventricle in a human heart. Among the complexities of such fluids, we are interested in the viscoelastic nature. The effect of acceleration in vortex...master thesis 2022

YANG, Xuzhou (author)As unmanned aerial systems (UAS) turn into a full-fledged industry, the sky will be much more crowded in the future. Large-scale UAV applications make reliable UAV navigation a pressing need. Traditionally, global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is extensively used as the primary positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) service. However,...master thesis 2022

RIZOPOULOU, EVANGELIA (author)Precast concrete appears to be promising in dealing with delays in housing construction, yet long lead times are apparent in this industry. Lead time refers to the time that elapses between placing and receiving an order. The construction company Janssen de Jong recognizes the problem of sub-components’ long lead times in precast concrete house...master thesis 2022

van der Vliet, Stan (author)Large software projects often overrun costs, development time and do not deliver what has been envisioned by the customer. An important factor contributing to these cost overruns is the mismatch in the approaches of IT-architects and agile software development roles. In literature there are hints that complementary added value could be achieved...master thesis 2022

TUFAN, ÖZGE (author)3D city models are frequently used to acquire and store energy-related information of buildings to be used in energy applications, such as solar potential analyses and energy demand calculations. In this context, the most common data model is CityGML, which provides an application domain extension called the Energy ADE to store energy-related...master thesis 2022

van Veen, Nils (author)In the field of cooperative AI, an environment is created called Overcooked AI based on the popular Overcooked game. Originally the environment is used to study deep reinforcement learning, on the other hand it also allows for cooperative planning methods of which the paper will focus on. These methods include coupled based planning with...bachelor thesis 2022

Ordonez Cardenas, Nathan (author)A longstanding problem in the area of reinforcement learning is human-agent col- laboration. As past research indicates that RL agents undergo a distributional shift when they start collaborating with human beings, the goal is to create agents that can adapt. We build upon research using the two-player Overcooked environment to repro- duce a...bachelor thesis 2022
