Verhagen, Luuk (author)The potential for the production of green energy in the Netherlands is insufficiently utilized. The cause for this problem is the insufficient bearing capacity of industrial roofs for the installation of solar panels using ballast. This required ballast exceeds the bearing capacity of the roof structure, or exceeds the bearing capacity of the...master thesis 2022

Liu, Xiuping (author), Lin, Liping (author), Wu, J. (author), Wang, W. (author), Yin, Baocai (author), Wang, C.C. (author)Wireframe models are becoming a popular option in 3D printing. Generating sparse wireframe models using classic mesh simplification methods leads to models that require a lot of support structures in the layer-upon-layer additive process. In this paper we present a mesh simplification method that takes into account the overhang angle....journal article 2018

Langelaar, Matthijs (author)The potential of topology optimization to amplify the benefits of additive manufacturing (AM), by fully exploiting the vast design space that AM allows, is widely recognized. However, existing topology optimization approaches do not consider AM-specific limitations during the design process, resulting in designs that are not self-supporting....journal article 2016

Langelaar, Matthijs (author)Advances in additive manufacturing (AM) allow economical production of components with unprecedented geometric complexity. This offers exciting opportunities for innovative designs, and particularly topology optimization has been identified as a key technique to fully exploit the capabilities of AM. However, also AM involves manufacturing...conference paper 2016

Overkleeft, J. (author)The report of Graduation Project from Jasper Overkleeft, is a quest for a new facade material with the focus on a mono material facade. This will contain that all the functions of the facade will be integrated in one material. It means that what normally a cavity wall will do, protect the inner climate from cooling or heating too much, keeping...master thesis 2010
