van den Beld, David (author)ADCS magnetometers on board of satellites suffer from the disruptive magnetic field produced by the satellite itself. For CubeSats and PocketQubes this magnetic field is usually not quantified. If the largest magnetic field sources are known and if there is freedom in the magnetometer placement, the magnetometer is simply placed as far from the...master thesis 2023

de Vries, Ellen (author)Suction grippers have the advantage to handle many different types and sizes of items, without being restricted by the dimensions of clamps to enclose an object and to handle objects more delicately. <br/>However, the challenge of attaching these grippers to irregularly-shaped and rough surfaces remains a persistent issue. Despite advancements...master thesis 2023

Carmiggelt, J.J. (author)Knowledge about the magnetic and electronic properties of materials does not only expand our fundamental understanding of nature, but is also crucial for the development of new technologies. Today’s electronic devices rely on electrical currents to transport and process information, which generate a lot of heat waste via Joule heating. These...doctoral thesis 2023

Ronæs, Endre (author)This report presents two different methods for controlling the remnant magnetisation state of a permanent magnet within a Hybrid Tunable Magnet Actuator. Addressing, individually, the desire for optimum energy efficiency and control accuracy. The purpose of this actuator is to track a quasi-static position reference without continuous thermal...master thesis 2023

Fetter, Marnix (author)Indoor positioning systems cannot rely on conventional localization methods, such as GPS, to locate devices because of interference with the structure of buildings. One solution is to use magnetic positioning, which is based on spatial variations in the patterns of the ambient magnetic field. To model magnetic fields, Gaussian process regression...master thesis 2023

Hoppener, Bruce (author)Focal laser ablation is a new, promising method to treat tumors. The current focal laser ablation approach is to insert an optical fiber into the patient using rigid needles. A side effect of this approach is that during the needle insertion, tissue damage occurs. The larger the diameter of the needle, the more tissue damage. If the diameter of...master thesis 2023

Kemper, Erik (author)Detection of lymph node involvement has a significant negative impact on the treatment outcome for patients with head and neck squamous-cell carcinomas (SCC). Metastatic lymph nodes can be detected with high sensitivity by 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET). However, 18F-FDG uptake is not only increased in...master thesis 2023

van Nielen, Sander S. (author), Sprecher, B. (author), Verhagen, Teun J. (author), Kleijn, René (author)The world is facing a growing neodymium demand, creating the need for developing a recycling system to handle future waste flows. Recycling technologies are emerging, but the recycling system around them can only be established with knowledge about available end-of-life (EoL) products. Therefore, this study quantified neodymium waste in European...journal article 2023

Mier Escurra, C. (author), Mor, A. R. (author), Vaessen, P.T.M. (author), Lathouwers, A.G.A. (author)One of the main difficulties in measuring partial discharges (PD) in gas-insulated substations (GIS) is the overlapping of pulses at the sensor's location, which distorts the pulse resolution and the charge estimation. This research presents a new method called “synergy,” which identifies and suppresses reflections using magnetic and electric...journal article 2023

Kiecana, A. (author), Kwakernaak, C. (author), van Dijk, N.H. (author), Brück, E.H. (author)The effect of the heat treatment on the magnetism, magnetocaloric effect and microstructure formation has been systematically studied in Fe-rich (Mn,Fe)<sub>y</sub>(P,Si) melt-spun ribbons (1.80 ≤ y ≤ 2.00). XRD, SEM and EDS measurements demonstrate that a metal deficiency prompts the stable (Mn,Fe)Si phase, whereas in the metal-rich region...journal article 2023
