Maassen van den Brink, Mitchell (author)In this thesis, research was done in the area of interacting particle systems. Especially, the symmetric exclusion process with local perturbations was investigated. These perturbations, were in the form of sinks and sources, which add or take away particles at certain rates. Moreover, simulations were done for the asymmetric exclusion process....bachelor thesis 2023

van der Grift, Niek (author)Air transport has gone from a once in a lifetime experience for the extremely rich to a day to day method of transportation for everybody. With the increase in passenger movements the amount of baggage that goes through airports has increased as well. This could cause problems for airports if they have a limited capacity in one of the parts of...master thesis 2023

Bartl, Frederik (author)In this report, I investigate strategic decision making in the Formula E racing series for Porsche. Formula E is an electric car circuit racing series, where the main tasks of race strategy are allocating energy consumption across the race and timing mandatory "attack mode" activations (similar to small-scale pitstops). I work on a flawed...master thesis 2022

Deijkers, Emma (author)COVID-19 has had a great impact worldwide. One of its many effects was that offices had to be closed, which negatively affects the economy and people’s mental health. It is important that a safe way to keep offices open is found. Non-Pharmaceutical Interventions (NPIs) are an important way to do this. However, to pick the right NPIs for one’s...master thesis 2022

Matheus Hernandez, David (author)The transition towards greener mobility will play a significant role in decarbonizing the economy. Hence, policy makers need tools that allow them to test alternatives towards that goal. This drive has led to the development of increasingly accurate transport models, with the latest generation being activity-based transport demand models. These...master thesis 2022

Shaikh, Raiyan (author)Emerging PV technologies like Perovskite has lead to the development of Perovskite/Silicon (Pvk/c-Si) tandem device (Multi-junction device) and has now gained a lot of momentum and attention due to the fact that the tandem device can reach a Shockley-Quisser limit of about 44.1% efficiency. But to speed up its development, a lot of emphasis is...master thesis 2022

Ligtenberg, Jourian (author)The river Waal is part of an economic important transport-corridor that connects the ports of Antwerp, Rotterdam and Amsterdam to Germany. Ongoing processes such as (1) climate change, (2) large scale river bed erosion and (3) up-scaling of vessels threaten the future navigability of the river. This will lead to massive economic damages as taken...master thesis 2022

Yu, G. (author), Rossen, W.R. (author)Foam injection is a promising means of reducing the relative mobility of gas, and hence improving the sweep efficiency of gas, in CO<sub>2</sub> and H<sub>2</sub> storage, soil-contaminant removal in aquifer remediation, enhanced oil recovery, and matrix-acid well stimulation. Theory (Rossen and Gauglitz, 1990; Ashoori et al., 2012) and...journal article 2022

(author)Intestinal campylobacteriosis, caused by Campylobacter ingestion, is the most reported zoonosis in the EU; it is societally costly and can lead to more severe sequelae. To reduce Campylobacter infections, biosecurity measures at both farms and slaughterhouses are warranted. However, the potential improvements achieved by these interventions have...journal article 2022

Masoumian, S. (author), Selimis, Georgios (author), Wang, Rui (author), Schrijen, Geert-Jan (author), Hamdioui, S. (author), Taouil, M. (author)SRAM Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) are among other things today commercially used for secure primitives such as key generation and authentication. The quality of the PUFs and hence the security primitives, depends on intrinsic variations which are technology dependent. Therefore, to sustain the commercial usage of PUFs for cutting-edge...conference paper 2022

Aydin, N.Y. (author), Krishnan, S. (author), Yu, H. (author), Comes, M. (author)Cities are complex socio-technical systems (STSs) under tremendous stress due to climate change. To incorporate resilience into urban plans and move towards evidence-based long-term decision-making, we must unravel complex land-use dynamics and the effect of climate uncertainties on cities. Currently, land-use dynamics are explored through...conference paper 2022

Rooijmans, Robert (author)The main resistive force acting on the wheelchair during manual wheelchair propulsion is the rolling resistance. The magnitude of this rolling resistance is heavily influenced by the actions of the wheelchair user. By optimizing how wheelchair athletes move, this rolling resistance can be minimized, thereby improving their effective power output...master thesis 2021
