Christensen, D.O. (author)The conversion in bubbling fluidized bed reactors is suppressed because the interphase mass transfer and gas-solid contact in bubbling fluidized bed reactors are often poor. Most of the gas is present in the form of bubbles, which have low surface-to-volume ratios and are nearly devoid of catalyst particles. The chaotic behaviour of the bubbles...doctoral thesis 2008

Papaefthymiou, G. (author), Klöckl, B. (author)This paper contributes a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method for the direct generation of synthetic time series of wind power output. It is shown that obtaining a stochastic model directly in the wind power domain leads to reduced number of states and to lower order of the Markov chain at equal power data resolution. The estimation quality of...journal article 2008

De Jong, E.C.W. (author), Ferreira, B.J.A. (author), Bauer, P. (author)A means for power electronics to exploit the level of 3-D packaging already being implemented in compact consumer products, such as digital cameras, is investigated in order to increase its power density. The increase in functionality and usage of printed circuit board (PCB) in power electronic converters is highlighted and improvements proposed...journal article 2008

Djairam, D. (author)Wind energy is converted to electrical energy by letting the wind move charged particles against the direction of an electric field. The advantage of this type of conversion is that no rotational movement, which occurs in conventional wind turbines, is required. An electrostatic wind energy converter (EWICON) has been developed. Charged...doctoral thesis 2008

Remøy, H.T. (author), van der Voordt, Theo (author)The continuing high levels of office building vacancy in the Netherlands cause a loss of income for building owners and - since the physical life span of the buildings is not getting shorter – an increase of obsolete office buildings. These buildings are deteriorated or even prospectless, with no perspective on future lease or reuse for office...conference paper 2009

Mao, Y. (author)The main focus of this thesis is the design a receiver frontend for FMCW radar applications. In these systems, the increasing requirements on detection resolution,points towards the use of higher frequencies. In view of this, frequencies at W-band are very attractive due to the otential of high spatial resolution, while chip size and antennas...master thesis 2009

(author)Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) is an advanced technology with a long history of developments. Today, research performed by students from Delft University of Technology shows that OTEC can be a feasible and cost competitive solution for sustainable energy in Curacao, one of the islands on the Netherlands Antilles. The team developed a...conference paper 2009

Khan Mozahedy, A.B.M. (author)Detrimental impacts of fossil fuels and its foreseen scarcity are encouraging research for the development of the renewable energy as alternatives. A newly developed composite seawall concept could be a vitally important technique for wave energy conversion. A 3-D model of composite seawall has been simulated to comprehend its hydraulic...master thesis 2009

Jiang, L. (author)Frequency up-conversion is an integral part of the (sub)mm wave integrated radar system that is currently developed at the TUDelft in the context of the MEMPIS program. The proposed up-converter IC allows the necessary signal modulation for the radar to be generated at a relative low frequency, after up-conversion to W-band takes place. In our...master thesis 2009

De Windt, J. (author)Bus based interconnects are commonly used to connect Intellectual Properties (IPs) on System-on-Chip (SoC). However, as the number of high performance IPs with large communication requirements in a Multi Processor SoC (MPSoC) increases, the bus interconnects become a communication bottleneck. To overcome this limitation, the bus based...master thesis 2009

Oostdam, M. (author), Van Paridon, O. (author)Before a shopper converts into a buyer there are a lot of steps to be taken. In each of these steps a portion of shoppers discontinues their purchase and the remaining part finalises the transaction. The conversion ratio is defined as the number of shoppers that finalise their transaction in com- parison to the number of shoppers that start a...bachelor thesis 2010

Wiegman, J.W.E. (author)Nowadays silicon solar cells are widely used to produce electric energy. However, considering its efficiency, there is room for improvement. The solar spectrum ranges from 300 nm to 2,500 nm, whereas the band gap of the silicon solar cell converts only a small band around 1,000 nm at full efficiency into electricity. The spectrum below the band...bachelor thesis 2010

(author)A 4 GHz third-order continuous-time ΔΣ ADC is presented with a loop filter topology that absorbs the pole caused by the input capacitance of its 4-bit quantizer and also compensates for the excess delay caused by the quantizer's latency. The ADC was implemented in 45 nm-LP CMOS and achieves 70 dB DR and -74 dBFS THD in a 125 MHz BW, while...journal article 2011

Ter Heijden, N. (author)Virtual reality exposure therapy (VRET) is already used for treatment of phobias like fear of flying, heights and small places. It is shown to be effective in these areas prompting research into new phobia treatment possibilities. Current papers concerned with social phobia and the use of VRET do not seem to focus on person to person interaction...master thesis 2011
