Bertholdt, Jonas (author)The demand for more efficient aircraft and new modes of transportation lead to a departure from the traditional tail and wing configuration. In order to operate an aircraft, it needs to be certified. Most Aircraft with a capacity to carry more than 10 passengers have to fulfil a variety of bird strike related certification standards. These...master thesis 2024

Sijmons, Kasper (author)During this research, a new approach to predict impact damage was evaluated using the PAL-V Liberty’s propeller blade as the test subject. The purpose of this research was to provide a simple method for impact damage prediction which will support the certification activities of the PAL-V propeller.<br/>This method involves conducting a threat...master thesis 2023

Dong, J. (author)Advancements in technology and societal demands have led to increasing complexity, size, and automation in modern industrial systems. This trend makes these systems more safety-critical, as the occurrence of faults in system components or subsystems may cause the entire system to fail, resulting in significant economic losses and casualties....doctoral thesis 2023

Lukovics, Miklós (author), Nagy, Benedek (author), Roosenboom-Kwee, Z. (author), Yaghmaei, E. (author)In this paper, we use an economic approach to demonstrate why ‘rational’ businesses are not likely to implement responsible innovation (RI) unless it is economically profitable. The lack of sufficient insights into economic impacts of RI is often induced by information asymmetry. Such asymmetry would hinder consumers who would otherwise be...journal article 2023

Ribo-Perez, D.G. (author), As, J. Van (author), Montagud-Montalvá, C. (author), Royo-Pastor, R. (author)This research aims to diagnose the energy performance of buildings in València and identify areas where energy efficiency can be improved. The energy performance results of all 129,487 EPCs in the city were mapped and compared to socioeconomic variables to gain insights into the reasons behind the results. The study reveals that the city's...journal article 2023

Salma, V. (author), Schmehl, R. (author)Integrating the operation of airborne wind energy systems safely into the airspace requires a systematic qualification process. It seems likely that the European Union Aviation Safety Agency will approve commercial systems as unmanned aircraft systems within the “specific” category, requiring risk-based operational authorization. In this paper,...journal article 2023

Delzenne, David (author)Many recycled materials in different industries are traceable. The recycled content is often known in percentages. Steel is a material which gets recycled almost 100%. However it is not common practice to specify the recycled content for steel products. From a sustainability point of view this information can be very valuable. This thesis...master thesis 2022

Nguyen, Thanh-Dat (author)Certificate transparency (CT) is a system that publishes all issued certificates so that they can be audited and monitored by any party. This allows to detect misissued certificates quickly and catch the misbehaving certificate authorities. CT makes the certificate ecosystem more transparent and less reliant on trust that trusted certificate...master thesis 2022

Riillo, Cesare A.F. (author), Mijatovic, Ivana (author), de Vries, H.J. (author)Management system certification signals that the organization meets international standards, which provides a certain confidence in the company. This confidence is in particular needed for exporting companies in developing countries. Because the business world is dominated by men, female leadership might be another reason to have less confidence...journal article 2022

Fisher, Michael (author), Mascardi, Viviana (author), Rozier, Kristin Yvonne (author), Schlingloff, Bernd-Holger (author), Winikof, Michael (author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author)A computational system is called autonomous if it is able to make its own decisions, or take its own actions, without human supervision or control. The capability and spread of such systems have reached the point where they are beginning to touch much of everyday life. However, regulators grapple with how to deal with autonomous systems, for...journal article 2021

Yau, Yung (author), Hou, H. (author), Yip, Ka Chi (author), Qian, QK (author)Eco-certification schemes are usually launched with various incentives provided by local governments to facilitate green building development and building energy retrofits. A number of barriers to building energy retrofitting have been identified in previous literature, while the barriers to the eco-certification of existing buildings are under...journal article 2021

Pascoe, J.A. (author)Using the slow-growth certification approach for damage tolerance of composite aircraft structures has the potential to reduce their weight. Applying this approach requires that damage growth is slow, stable, and predictable. However, currently available methods do not allow for sufficiently accurate predictions, due to knowledge gaps related...journal article 2021

van der Meer, Olaf (author)The aim of this master thesis is to improve a raw materials certification scheme by checking and validating the application matrix and the coherent hazards developed for the Certification of Raw materials (CERA) project. The scope of the original application matrix included exploration, mining, physical processing, chemical processing, smelting...master thesis 2020

Lipinska, V. (author), Lê, P.T. (author), Ribeiro, J.D. (author), Wehner, S.D.C. (author)We consider testing the ability of quantum network nodes to execute multi-round quantum protocols. Specifically, we examine protocols in which the nodes are capable of performing quantum gates, storing qubits and exchanging said qubits over the network a certain number of times. We propose a simple ping-pong test, which provides a certificate...journal article 2020

Vaisi, Salah (author), Mohammadi, S. (author), Nastasi, B. (author), Javanrodi, Kavan (author)In 2008, the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE TM46 UC) presented an annual-fixed thermal energy benchmark of 240 kWh/m2/yr for university campus (UC) buildings as an attempt to reduce energy consumption in public buildings. However, the CIBSE TM46 UC benchmark fails to consider the difference between energy demand in...journal article 2020

van Teeseling, Ivar (author)A new certification approach for bonded primary Fiber Metal Laminate (FML) structures is investigated: using bolts as Disbond Arrest Features (DAF)s to contain the growth of bond line damages so that they can be found and repaired by inspection before becoming critical. By fatigue testing with coupon specimens and model analysis, it has been...master thesis 2019
