Six, Kobi (author)The aviation industry's reliance on automation raises concerns about pilot complacency, necessitating continuous pilot proficiency measures. To that end, real-time pilot skill feedback is vital—through alerts on declining skill levels or scalable levels of autonomy. Current cybernetic methods are limited as they assume linearity and time...master thesis 2023

Jamadar, Zeeshan (author)Anthropogenic climate change has led to irreversible Sea level rise (SLR), underscoring the urgency to implement adaptation measures. With there being a series of challenges to implement SLR adaptation, international standardisation emerges out to be a solution to address these challenges. In this research, an attempt is made to identify SLR...master thesis 2023

Zhang, Letian (author)Board-level reliability (BLR) looks at the reliability problem in the package and PCB interconnection, which is an important topic in microelectronics. The current criterion in the BLR test is to look if the connection is open, which can only detect the failure and there is no available method that can detect the degradation of the solder joints...master thesis 2023

Kramer, Twan (author)The Netherlands is dedicated to countering climate change, and a necessary approach is transitioning to renewable energy and promoting the electrification of the Dutch industry. However, this shift from a centralized to a decentralized energy system has led to grid congestion due to the existing grid structure designed for lower energy demand...master thesis 2023

Steensma, Tijmen (author)The Green Deal (Fetting, 2020), initiated by the European Commission, aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions within the EU to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius compared to pre-industrial levels (International Panel of Climate Change, 2022). The EU focuses on energy that is acceptable, applicable, available, and affordable – referring...master thesis 2023

Corsten, Dorris (author)To mitigate climate change by transforming the energy system citizen involvement is crucial. Citizen involvement can help achieve these goals as well as accelerate the transition, by harnessing local knowledge for the improvement of plans, creating a support base and the opportunity for citizens to come up with their own initiatives. Therefore...master thesis 2023

Schmidt, Peter (author)The urgent need to address global warming and achieve the 1.5°C target set by the Paris Agreement necessitates an energy transition in Europe, with offshore wind energy in the North Sea playing a vital role. Despite the complexity of the North Sea's offshore energy system, the existing literature lacks a comprehensive study of the entire system,...master thesis 2023

van Woudenberg, Jaïr (author)The sea level is rising, possibly by one meter, by the end of this century. The Netherlands is preparing for this scenario through Kennisprogramma Zeespiegelstijging (KP-ZSS). One of the goals is to determine the hydraulic effects of sea level rise (SLR) on the current system. For the flood risk analysis within<br/>KP-ZSS, the current strength...master thesis 2023

Wongnitchakul, Aphitchaya (author)The acceleration of the sea level rise will have an immediate global impact, especially on the Delta works. This projection increases the challenge for flood protection strategies and the existing flood barriers that currently lack adaptation for the higher water level. As an opportunity from the negative outcome of climate change and the most...master thesis 2023

Kaffa, Lauren (author)Loss of control (LOC) is the primary cause of failure of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). The safety of these systems can be largely improved by facilitating techniques to prevent LOC to occur, such as Flight Envelope Protection, enabling controllers to keep the system within the Safe Flight Envelope (SFE).<br/>The aim of this work is to examine...master thesis 2023

Oomens, Robin (author)Coastal cities and communities are threatened by Sea Level Rise (SLR). Designing adaptations to protect against the rising sea requires a novel approach. With changing conditions, a broader approach considering multiple climate scenarios is required. A city facing an increasing threat from sea levels is Venice, one of the UNESCO world heritage...master thesis 2023

van Avendonk, Anne (author)The flood protection system in the Dutch Delta has to be adapted to accommodate the rising sea levels. When creating potential solutions, it is important to assess their social feasibility. An interesting aspect is the potential difference in opinion between different generations as there is an uneven distribution of the responsibility and...master thesis 2023

Teng, Djimin (author)If sea level rises faster than anticipated in the initial design of rubble mound breakwaters, a serious threat is posed to their functionality. To limit wave overtopping, breakwaters must be adapted to the rising sea level and subsequent increase in wave loading due to reduced depth-induced wave breaking. However, the...master thesis 2023
