Emulsions, characterized as a metastable dispersion of one liquid into a second one in the presence of surface-active agents, have complex rheology that interests both physicists and industries. Depending on the volume fraction of the dispersed phase ($\phi$), emulsions can display both solid-like and liquid-like behavior. Rheometrical...

Floating wind turbines despite the the potential to harness energy from deep offshore areas where higher average wind speeds face challenges in terms of competitiveness. One approach to raising the competitiveness of a wind farm is to mitigate efficiency losses resulting from the wake effect. This report focuses on the combination of three...

The 21st century has seen a significant increase in the global prevalence of mental health problems, affecting almost a billion people. These conditions not only reduce the quality of life for individuals but also lead to stigmatization, discrimination, and social isolation. The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated mental health issues,...

Introduction Holland PTC (Delft, The Netherlands) is an independent outpatient clinic where ten different types of cancer are treated with Pencil Beam Scanning (PBS). Some of these cancer types are situated in the thoracic region and therefore exposed to breathing motion. The interplay between the dynamic pencil beam delivered in PBS and the...

Stratified turbulent flows abound in environmental and industrial settings. Examples are atmospheric boundary layer flows, the transport of nutrients and organisms and the mixing of heat and salinity in the oceans, fluid flow in heat exchangers, and the transport of reactants and products in chemical reactions. These examples and many others...

In cycling, the presence of drag reduction from drafting, when multiple cyclists ride in tandem, is a considerable area of performance enhancement for a cycling team and the customisation of this tandem group has the potential of maximising the drag reduction for the entire group or a specific cyclist. The flow interactions between two tandem...

Climate change is one of the most pressing matters our society faces. As a result, temperatures are rising across the globe. This effect is especially prevalent in urban areas, where artificial surfaces such as pavements are abundant and vegetation scarce. This effect is called the Urban Heat Island Effect (UHI). Another issue that is caused by...

In composite structures, delamination damage is typically the most common failure mechanism. Accurately characterizing the delamination behaviour of composite laminates is therefore crucial for predicting the fatigue safe-life of such structures. To this end, double-cantilever beam (DCB) composite specimens are used to measure the interlaminar...

Aqueous electrolytes used in CO2 electroreduction typically have a CO2 solubility of around 34 mM under ambient conditions, contributing to mass transfer limitations in the system. Non-aqueous electrolytes exhibit higher CO2 solubility (by 5–8-fold) and also provide possibilities to suppress the undesired hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). On...

Learning curves in machine learning are graphical representations that depict the relationship between a model's performance and the amount of training data it has been exposed to. They play a fundamental role in obtaining the knowledge and skills across a range of domains. Although there are already quite some researches studying machine...

Accurate traffic forecasts are a key element in improving the traffic flow of urban cities. An efficient approach to this problem is to use a deep learning Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) model. Including weather data in the model can improve prediction accuracy because traffic volumes are sensitive to weather changes. The aim of this study is to...

This thesis aims to investigate the feasibility of developing a successful unsupervised Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) methodology to detect damage in structures, specifically bridges. Detecting damage, especially in its earliest stages, is challenging, thus prompting the need for robust and effective methods. The success of such a...

Prisons serve as amplifiers of Tuberculosis (TB) transmission due to overpopulation, lack of hygiene, and bad ventilation [Mabud et al., 2019] [Baussano et al., 2010]. The risk of TB is elevated during and after incarceration, only returning to the general population’s risk seven years after liberation. This is an indication that formerly...

The number of satellites in orbit is increasing at an accelerating pace. One major issue that currently hinders the range of satellite applications is data analysis. Most data is transmitted back to ground stations for analysis resulting in bandwidth-related issues, or the processing is performed on board, necessitating large computational power...
