Tadolini, Cesare (author)The analysis of integrated front ends operated in the high-frequency regimes is addressed in this work. The analysis of these problems has been a critical bottleneck for decades due to the difficulties arising in adopting full-wave techniques. Assuming, as typical at lower frequencies, that the structures are planar leads to the inaccurate...master thesis 2024

Bhamidi, Sreeniza (author)User-centric design practice rely on journey maps and personas as a way to communicate user needs to the design team (Lanius et al., 2021). However, journey maps in practice have been found to lack a dimension that could inform designers about intrinsic cognitive needs of the user. This research project aims to address this gap by exploring ways...master thesis 2024

den Haan, Adriaan (author)With the ever so rapid transition towards renewable energy, the offshore electricity transmission system has to expand. Towards 2050, a meshed offshore network is seen as a cost-effective solution to bring electricity to shore. Although there is no "one size fits all", a Cross-Border Cost Allocation procedure is the designated procedure to...master thesis 2024

Fakkel, Stein (author)Classical computer have difficulties simulating specific complex problems, therefore other computation options are being explored. One of these options is the quantum computer, which is expected to excel in various industries. The challenge for the quantum computer is scaling it up to a high number of qubits. The diamond-based quantum computer...master thesis 2023

La Poutré, Luc (author), Bryan, Jesper (author), Damen, Kim (author), Dekker, Deborah (author), Scholte, Josephine (author), Witmer, Benjamin (author)Playa Unión and Puerto Rawson are facing severe coastal erosion and increasingly the negative effects. Since the first half of the 20th century there have been signs of erosion, but also of sedimentation. However, the coastline in the project area is retreating over the years. The situation has recently been declared an emergency. Furthermore,...student report 2023

Horsman, Niels (author)The pair-copula Bayesian network (PCBN) is a Bayesian network (BN) where the conditional probability functions are modeled using pair-copula constructions. By assigning bivariate conditional copulas to the arcs of the BN, one finds a proper joint density which can flexibly model all kinds of dependence structures. It is a known problem that the...master thesis 2023

Nijhof, Daan (author)Following the European Green Deal, transport- related emissions must be reduced by 90% in 2050. While aviation contributes to a significant share of these emissions, the substitution of flights for rail travel is often considered to achieve a reduction in emissions of greenhouse gasses. Mostly, travelers consider this option when the full trip...master thesis 2023

Ramanna, Austin (author)This thesis aims to automatically and reliably detect large-scale structures in turbulent flows. To achieve this, a U-net (a type of neural network) is trained using artificially generated data. From the network output, continuous structures are derived and general statistics, including, volume fraction, relative kinetic energy and length scales...master thesis 2023

Engelen, Anouk (author)During human motor control, sensory information is integrated, and the influence of each cue depends on its variance. Sensory weighting within the proprioceptive system, specifically between force and position feedback, including its stiffness dependency, has been demonstrated for the shoulder and digits. Both studies encompass upper limb joints...master thesis 2023
