Burns can make patients’ lives quite miserable. Apart from prominent and thickened, or hypertrophic, scars, the skin may be characterized by contraction. When this contraction is so severe that the patient loses joint mobility, it is called contracture. Then a patient may have difficulties with sports or other daily activities. The consequence...

This article examines the potential implications of using iron powder as an alternative fuel on the design and performance of container ships. Iron powder is a relatively new alternative energy carrier and one in which little research has been done into the application on-board vessels as part of the maritime energy transition. The key...

Tracking temperature changes by measuring the resulting resistivity changes inside low-enthalpy reservoirs is crucial to avoid early thermal breakthroughs and maintain sustainable energy production. The controlled-source electromagnetic method (CSEM) allows for the estimation of sub-surface resistivity. However, it has not yet been proven that...

Ultrasound imaging is an important modality in ocular oncology, allowing for fast examination of the eye by the ophthalmologist themselves. It is clinically used to measure tumour sizes for treatment planning. However, ocular ultrasound is limited to two-dimensional imaging, and suffers from poor contrast between tumour and sclera, which...

Lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries used for electric-rickshaw in India fail far short of their expected battery lifespan. Also, the materials being used have unfavorable consequences for the environment. A new type of battery made from sea salt has recently been invented. The sea salt battery could potentially be a better, cheaper, and greener...

Augmented reality (AR) permits the visualization of pre-operative data in the surgical field of view of the surgeon. This requires the alignment of the AR device’s coordinate system with the used navigation/tracking system. We propose a multimodal marker approach to align an AR device with a tracking system: in our implementation, an...

This thesis provides a 'proof of concept' for a vanadium bromide redox flow battery-powered ship (E-Conoship) in the short sea shipping market of North West Europe. An elaborate analysis of historical voyage data has been carried out to determine operational feasibility. To determine economic feasibility, a cost-comparison model has been...

Implantable Medical Devices (IMDs) are deployed in patients to treat a range of medical conditions. Technological advancements have enabled manufacturers to fit IMDs with specialized hardware that accelerates compute-intensive medical therapies next to a software-run host processor. However, mostly hardware acceleration is found in the form of...

The Netherlands will need to transform her traditionally fossil fueled energy system in the coming decades to achieve the goal of reducing CO2 emissions to net-zero in 2050. Therefore, an increase in renewable energy sources as solar and wind energy in the overall energy mix will be essential. However, due to the highly variable energy...

Solitaire is a DP positioned pipelay vessel capable of laying pipe up to 3000 meters. Currently, Solitaire is more than 40 years old. Although it has been upgraded multiple times, it has been identified that certain improvement can be achieved by retrofitting just the aft of the vessel. The purpose of the research is to evaluate the feasibility...

Small scale inland shipping, especially in the case of transported containers, is used only marginally compared to its capacity. The small inland waterways have abundant capacity to accommodate up to 700 percent more transport. On the other hand, road based container transport is cause for external damages in the form of congestion, emissions...
