Auduson, A.E. (author)Wintershall is operating a number of Buntsandstein fields in the Southern North Sea. It has proven a major exploration challenge in the area to predict the reservoir quality of these fields based on seismic data only. The effect of salt present in the area plugging the pore space leads at first sight to similar seismic responses on post-stack...master thesis 2010

Verbree, J. (author)Three-dimensional stacked ICs (3D-SICs) based on Through-Silicon Vias (TSVs) is an emerging technology. It provides heterogeneous integration, higher performance and bandwidth, and lower power consumption. However, 3D-SICs suffer from lower compound yield, especially those based on Wafer-to-Wafer (W2W) stacking. In addition, testability of such...master thesis 2011

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
