Strobel, Tobias (author)Dehydration is a common medical condition in the elderly. This deficit in body water increases the risk of illnesses and mortality. The human body has no way of storing water which makes consistent water intake crucial. Water plays a multifaceted role, from being the medium for all bodily chemical reactions to regulating temperature and ensuring...master thesis 2023

Nguyen, Vivian (author)Tracking food intake provides a valuable source of information to gain insights in dietary habits for the health industry. Currently, the main method to track food intake to is do it manually. To take a step towards tracking food intake manually, this these aims to answer the following research question: ”How to detect chewing episodes with an...bachelor thesis 2023

ten Caat, P.N. (author), Tenpierik, M.J. (author), van den Dobbelsteen, A.A.J.F. (author)The production, processing, and transportation of food, in particular animal-based products, imposes great environmental burden on the planet. The current food supply system often constitutes a considerable part of the total carbon emissions of urban communities in industrialised cities. Urban food production (UFP) is a method that can...journal article 2022

Barsom, Bavly (author)Supersonic intakes are essential in assuring proper combustion for operating ramjet engines on cruise missiles. However, due to increasing threats and a rapidly changing service environment, today's intakes do not fit anymore to comply with the new set of requirements to tackle the above challenges. Therefore, a novel supersonic intake design is...master thesis 2021

Leung, K.C. (author)A low-speed aerodynamic analysis on the conventional NACA ram-air inlet of the Airbus A320 with a new closure flap was conducted. The conventional closure flap mechanism inside the NACA ram-air inlet is replaced by a morphing plate design. Steady-state Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) based Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations...master thesis 2020

van Beek, Suzanne (author)Change can be defined as deliberate activities that move an organisation from its present state to a desired future state (Harigopal, 2016). A form of facilitating change is to organise a creative session, which is a group process of applied creativity with the ultimate goal to create a product. The product is the desired future state of a...master thesis 2019

Kwakman, Koen (author)Since ramjet propulsion eliminates the need for oxidizers, it provides an alternative to classic rocket engines for missiles and projectiles. However, to capture free-stream air, ramjet engines require large supersonic air intakes, which can be an operational nuisance. A possible alternative is to make the supersonic intakes flush with the...master thesis 2019

Doni, Giovanni (author)Coastal facilities such as desalination plant or a nuclear power plant need a continuous discharge of salty water to carry out their functions. Hereby an intake structure, such as a velocity cap, can be used to take in water from the sea. These intakes are open seafloor founded constructions mounted at a water depth ranging between 10 and 20...master thesis 2018

van Wijk, Erwin (author)To evaluate the performance of proposed submerged intakes in an early design phase, a performance analysis model able to evaluate a range of intake geometries is required. This document details how such a model was developed with the use of available sub-models for specific flow features. A formulation of the method of characteristics suitable...master thesis 2017

Yagob Mohamed, T.I. (author), Bode, P. (author), van de Wiel, A. (author), Wolterbeek, H.T. (author)Accurate assessments of the iron (Fe) intake from food is mandatory for mass balance studies. The reliability of such assessments is strongly dependent on the representativeness of the analytical test portion and, as such, the quality of the homogenization of the double portions collected. Large sample Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis ...journal article 2017

Bekker, A.C.M. (author)Overweight prevalence has increased dramatically over the course of the last three or four decades. An increased caloric intake, partly induced by the food industry, is the main cause of this epidemic. Though activity trackers are widely available, no solutions are yet available for automatic food intake tracking. Current solutions for improving...master thesis 2015

Weekamp, A. (author)Weight Management:Many people in the world are dealing with overweight and this amount is still growing each year. Most people are not aware of their food intake. Literature indicates that people estimate their food intake 20% less then it actually is. To lose weight without a lot of effort, a simple awareness of what you eat is enough. A well...master thesis 2011

Wanhill, R.J.H. (author), Boogers, J.A.M. (author), Huisman, H.N. (author), Ottens, H.H. (author)In 1995 an air supply manifold support rod from a high-performance turbofan engine failed by bending fatigue. The rod material was Inconel 718, operating at about 550° in an air environment. Diagnostic aspects of the failure (fatigue in bending, Stage I and Stage II fatigue fracture characteristics, and interference colours due to fracture...report 1996

(author)In this paper the capabilities of an automated CFD system which is currently available at NLR are demonstrated. Transonic flow around the AS28G wing/body configuration and hypersonic flow through a generic three-dimensional mixed-compression airbreathing inlet are simulated. An assessment of the level of automation of the current CFD-system is...report 1995

Plooy, P.J. (author)The potential for hydro power in Nepal is immense; the country clings to the south slopes of the Himalayas and has numerous streams and rivers that are fed by the monsoon rains and the melting mountain snow. The total potential is estimated at 83,000 MW, and even if only a fraction of this is economically feasible to develop it sets an aim for...master thesis 1988
