Cuadrat-Grzybowski, Michal (author)Mitigation strategies which eliminate existing space debris, such as with Active Space Debris Removal (ASDR) missions, are now more important than ever regarding the ever-growing space debris population problem. One of the considered ASDR approaches uses a net as a capturing strategy. The benefits of such strategy are to allow for a large...master thesis 2023

Ruiter Kanamori, Ricardo (author)Through a deep understanding of the social-historical and architectural background of the site, this thesis presents a project proposal for the neighbourhood of Droixhe in Liege, Belgium with the purpose of structuring the multiple layers of complexity the area has. The project focuses on the urban plan of the neighborhood and how through...master thesis 2023

de Ridder, Jesse (author)The offshore wind market is rapidly growing, resulting in increasing wind turbine sizes, increasing distances to port, and a shift to deeper waters. A literature study in this thesis shows that existing wind turbine installation vessels, vessels under construction, and innovative concepts will not be able to install next-generation turbines or...master thesis 2023

Boersma, Charlotte (author)Social cohesion is perceived to be under pressure in the Netherlands, especially in its larger cities. The Covid-19 pandemic has reinforced and deepened the socio-spatial divide between vulnerable urban areas and the rest of the city, which not only affects the residents of the area and of the city, but also starts to affect the cohesion of the...master thesis 2023

Bernátek, David (author)Our cities are densifying to accommodate the growing urban population within the existing urban fabric. More and smaller homes are being built. This appears to be the result of an ongoing global housing crisis. Therefore, good quality public space becomes even more essential, as it acts as the expansion of our living rooms. It is the immediate...master thesis 2023

Kemp, Laura (author)The Berlin Open Depot complements the cultural heart of Kulturforum, the cultural center of Berlin, located on Potsdamer Straße in the Berlin-Tiergarten district, situated on one of the busiest transportation nodes of Berlin. It is a center for a wide range of exhibition types and stands among the global frontrunners in the field of innovative...master thesis 2023

Verkammen, Marnix (author)With a continuously growing number of satellites in orbit, it becomes increasingly important to assess their impacts on the Earth's environment in a standardised manner. While interest in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for space missions has gained in strength in the past few years – particularly in Europe – no consensus has yet been reached on a...master thesis 2023

Groet, Philip (author)With the rise of the new interconnect standards CXL and previously OpenCAPI, has come a great deal of possibilities to step away from the classical approach where CPUs are in charge of moving data between external devices and local memory. Specifically, OpenCAPI allows for attached devices to directly interface with the host memory bus in a near...master thesis 2023

Sindy, Ferhat (author)Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) offers numerous benefits, notably the ability to study flows that are challenging or costly to investigate using experiments. A central challenge in CFD lies in simulating fluid flow around complex geometries. Additionally, the governing equations follow conservation laws. This thesis aims to establish the...master thesis 2023

Geul, J. (author)The goal of the research is to improve space situational awareness (SSA) for space debris objects, and to make space operations more sustainable and remain possible in the future. Vital to this awareness is understanding which objects are present, through space surveillance and tracking (SST), and where these objects will be in the future,...doctoral thesis 2023

Harteveld, Maurice (author)Al decennia staren beleidsmakers en stedebouwkundigen zich blind op hoogbouwbeleid door middel van hoogteregulering. Ook al blijft dit vanuit gezondheid en welstand verstandig, dit is een eenzijdige benadering. Zeker nu er steeds meer openbare ruimtes binnen de hoogbouwprojecten ontworpen en gerealiseerd worden, rijst de vraag hoe we voorbij de...journal article 2023

Puh, Maurizia (author)Ecosystem services (ES), the benefits humans receive from nature, increasingly come under pressure in Stockholm, one of the fastest growing capitals in Europe. To enhance the amount of eco-efficient area, Stockholm developed the Green Space Index (GSI). It is not known which areas in Stockholm might be particularly vulnerable in terms of ES...master thesis 2023

Lende, Knut Roar (author)Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) systems can be used as a bridge to extend the well studied model based control methods of Linear Time-Invariant systems to certain nonlinear systems. Despite significant attention in literature over the last two decades, finding an efficient global state space identification algorithm remains an open problem....master thesis 2023

van der Plas, Jan-Joris (author)This research has investigated how Sewer Water Harvesting (SWH) can be applied to provide a climate-proof fresh water source to support Urban Green Spaces (UGS) in Amsterdam. SWH is the process of extracting raw municipal sewage from the sewer and locally treating this to provide fit-for-purpose water in a dense urban environment while treatment...master thesis 2023

Sinha, Ishita (author)Recent launches of satellite constellations in the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) region have increased the collision probability of existing debris objects with active satellites. Monitoring the trajectories of these debris objects is crucial for Space Situational Awareness (SSA) to prevent the creation of more debris due to unwanted collisions. Much...master thesis 2023

Swanenburg, Jade (author)This thesis aims to develop a methodology for predicting the swap spread, which is defined as the difference between the German government bond interest rate and the Euribor swap rate. Thus far, the prediction of interest rates is limited to the prediction of a single interest rate. This thesis introduces the simultaneous prediction of the...master thesis 2023

MC Neil, Kyle (author)As renewable energy sources and DC energy storage continue to increase in modern power systems, the power electronic converters required to interface them with existing power grids are also rapidly increasing. This is resulting in increasing amounts of the total power exchanged on the grids being converted between DC and AC. Additionally, the...master thesis 2023

Schermerhorn, Rick (author)In this report we examine the dual space of $\ell^\infty$. If $p \in [1,\infty)$ and $q \in [1,\infty]$ satisfy $\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}=1$, then one can identify the spaces $\ell^q$ and $(\ell^p)'$ in a natural way via an isometric isomorphism. This identification does not extend to the case $p=\infty$ and $q=1$. We prove that the obvious...bachelor thesis 2023

Helsdingen, Wieger (author)FSO satellite communication enables data transfer at high bandwidths, low latency, and high security. Due to these benefits, FSO communication services with satellite constellations can hugely improve global connectivity and bandwidth, while maintaining sufficient security. Modeling a global FSO satellite communication service is beneficial for...master thesis 2023
