Amoroso, Pedro (author), van Ostayen, R.A.J. (author), de Rooij, Matthijn B. (author)This work introduces two innovative rolling pair concepts to minimize slippage and reduce mass in cam-roller systems of large-scale hydraulic drivetrains: The variable contact length and the Shifting Contact Geometry concepts. Both aim to improve traction in the low contact force phase in cyclically loaded rolling contacts. The shifting...journal article 2024

Badhrudeen, Mohamed (author), Derrible, Sybil (author), Verma, T. (author), Kermanshah, Amirhassan (author), Furno, Angelo (author)This article presents a method to uncover universal patterns and similarities in the urban road networks of the 80 most populated cities in the world. To that end, we used degree distribution, link length distribution, and intersection angle distribution as topological and geometric properties of road networks. Moreover, we used ISOMAP, a...journal article 2022

Callens, S.J.P. (author)The rapidly expanding field of tissue engineering presents enticing, yet demanding challenges for scientists and engineers across many different disciplines. The ultimate goal of tissue engineering is ambitious: to regenerate damaged or missing tissue in its full complexity, either in vitro or in situ, and restore organ function. In addition to...doctoral thesis 2021

de Haan, Taeke (author)In this thesis, a geometry-based grasping method for vine-tomato is proposed. The method utilizes a geometric model of the robotic hand and truss to determine an optimal grasping location on the truss stem. This allows grasping a truss without requiring delicate contact sensors or complex mechanical models. A computer vision pipeline is...master thesis 2020

Bologni, Giovanni (author)Acoustic room geometry estimation is often performed in ad hoc settings, i.e., using multiple microphones and sources distributed around the room, or assuming control over the excitation signals. To facilitate practical applications, we propose a fully convolutional network (FCN) that localizes reflective surfaces under the relaxed assumptions...master thesis 2020

van der Laan, Remi (author)Representing geometry data as voxels allows for a massive amount of detail that can be rendered in real-time. Storing this type of data as a directed acyclic graph (DAG) has recently led to immense improvements in memory consumption, which is one of the main limitations often associated with voxel-based approaches. We present a method for...master thesis 2019

Keijzer, Martijn (author)The need for research of PV system performance in urban areas is increasing as more and more PV systems are installed each year. To facilitate this research, a PV monitoring station is constructed on the campus of the TU Delft in a complex urban geometry. Unfortunately, the diffuse horizontal irradiance (DHI) measurements that are measured using...master thesis 2019

Lottman, Tim (author)Fluvial reservoirs are difficult to model due to the high permeability contrast between the sandstone bodies and the overbank deposits and the complex geometry of the permeable (sandstone bodies) and impermeable zones (overbank deposits). A set of fluvial meandering models has been generated using FLUMY. The models represent a range of Net-to...master thesis 2019

Brandt, C. (author)The research field of geometry processing is concerned with the representation, analysis, modeling, simulation and optimization of geometric data. In this thesis, we introduce novel techniques and efficient algorithms for problems in geometry processing, such as the modeling and simulation of elastic deformable objects, the design of tangential...doctoral thesis 2019

Arroyo Ohori, G.A.K. (author), Diakite, A.A. (author), Krijnen, Thomas (author), Ledoux, H. (author), Stoter, J.E. (author)It is widely acknowledged that the integration of BIM and GIS data is a crucial step forward for future 3D city modelling, but most of the research conducted so far has covered only the high-level and semantic aspects of GIS-BIM integration. This paper presents the results of the GeoBIM project, which tackled three integration problems focussing...journal article 2018

van Griethuijsen, Philip (author)Implanted intra-peritoneal insulin infusion (‘i4’) devices administer insulin into the peritoneum of diabetic patients with extreme blood glucose swings, that are highly difficult to control. The flushing procedures of i4 devices to clear obstructions from its conduits caused by insulin degradation are not always fully effective. The goal of...master thesis 2017

Arroyo Ohori, G.A.K. (author), Biljecki, F. (author), Diakite, A.A. (author), Krijnen, Thomas (author), Ledoux, H. (author), Stoter, J.E. (author)Geographic information and building information modelling both model buildings and infrastructure, but the way in which they are modelled is usually complimentary and BIM-GIS integration is widely considered as a way forward for both domains. For one, more detailed BIM data can feed more general GIS data and GIS data can provide the context...conference paper 2017

Kumar, M. (author), Schuttelaars, H.M. (author), Roos, P.C. (author), Möller, M. (author)In this paper, a three-dimensional semi-idealized model for tidal motion in a tidal estuary of arbitrary shape and bathymetry is presented. This model aims at bridging the gap between idealized and complex models. The vertical profiles of the velocities are obtained analytically in terms of the first-order and the second-order partial...journal article 2015

Gisen, J.I.A. (author)Estuaries have been used for settlement by humans since 5000-9000 years ago [Day et al., 2012]. The calm environment and nutrient-rich soil encouraged the development of ports and agriculture. Over-development however has put estuaries in unhealthy condition, where the water is polluted (excessive nutrient or salt intrusion problem) and natural...doctoral thesis 2015

Schakel, A.F. (author)For a travelling exhibition in Saudi-Arabia I have researched ways to build with sand in a temporary way. Using the existing sandbag-technique 'super adobe' of Nader Khalili combined with an inflatable roof a new method is born. This building system allows changes and flexibility when the building travels. It is more sustainable than the current...master thesis 2014

Donkers, S. (author)CityGML is a standardized data format used to store the semantic information and geometries of buildings and other object classes of 3D city models. The Level of Detail of current state of the art city models (LoD2) is not sufficient for accurate environmental simulations like noise, the solar potential of windows and other types of analyses. An...master thesis 2013

Shah, M. (author)This paper questions the context and meaning of space or the spatial within the current architectural and urban rhetoric as suggested by Vidler (2011) in his essay Transparency and Utopia: Constructing the void from Pascal to Foucault. As a case in point this paper further introduces the context of non-space as supposedly introduced by Le...conference paper 2013

Van der Pers, N.M. (author), Hendrikx, R.W.A. (author), Delhez, R. (author), Böttger, A.J. (author)A new diffracted-beam monochromator has been developed for Bragg-Brentano X-ray diffractometers equipped with a linear detector. The monochromator consists of a cone-shaped graphite highly oriented pyrolytic graphite crystal oriented out of the equatorial plane such that the parafocusing geometry is preserved over the whole opening angle of the...journal article 2013

Van Es, S.H.J. (author)When high strength steels are applicated in dynamically loaded structures, fatigue problems can arise. In most current design codes, the fatigue strength of high strength steels is either not discussed or determined as similar to mild steels. This assumption can be related to the dominance of the crack propagation life during in the total...master thesis 2012
