van Gerrevink, Iris (author)Mobility hubs are a promising concept that has been gaining increased attention. Mobility hubs, a place where several (shared) modalities are combined, are seen as an enabler of shared mobility. Shared mobility and mobility hubs could therefore provide attractive alternatives for private vehicles and contribute to municipal policy goals. Like to...master thesis 2021

Heuts, R.A.R. (author)Along the northern coast of Morocco order has been given for the construction of a large transshipment port in the Mediterranean Sea, at a designated project location around the city of Nador. On this green-field coastal stretch a new transhipment port will have to be developed for various types of cargo. Throughputs of the terminals will have...master thesis 2010

Festen, David (author)In order to be accepted by negotiating parties, negotiation protocols need to be fair and unbiased. We extend the bilateral turn-taking negotiation protocol to multiparty multilateral turn-taking peer negotiation protocols maintaining its fairness properties. We define the de- sign space of such protocols and capture the design decisions that go...master thesis 2018

Tonnaer, R. (author)The strict quality requirements for aerospace composite structures give rise to costly quality control procedures. In automated fibre placement (AFP) these procedures rely heavily on manualwork and inspection. This research aims at performing preventative non-destructive evaluation of composite laminate quality based on an online geometric...master thesis 2016

Schijf, T. (author)University technology-based incubators (UTBIs) have an important role in the development of new technology-based firms [NTBFs]. By providing a favourable environment for these companies it significantly reduces firm failure. In order to maximize the attainment of the incubator goal, UTBIs expect tenants to grow within a particular time. It,...master thesis 2015

Lu, Yundi (author)As of 2021, China's newly installed photovoltaic (PV) capacity has topped the world for nine consecutive years. Considering that the general life of crystalline silicon PV modules is 25 years, in the near future, China will face a wave of decommissioning of waste PV modules. Therefore, it is crucial to develop and improve China's PV module...master thesis 2023

Stoev, Stanimir (author)The Eigenmode Distortion (EMD) analysis is a novel method for objective evaluation of simulator motion cueing fidelity, developed at Delft University of Technology. It expresses the distortions of the perceived motion cues in terms of the dynamic modes of a linear model of the vehicle and has been applied to assess rotorcraft simulations. This...master thesis 2019
