Soors, Aurelie (author)In up to 39% of reduced distal radius fractures, re-displacement of the fracture occurs in the cast. In most cases, the cast becomes too loose as soft tissue swelling decreases over time and the cast no longer provides sufficient support to keep the fracture reduced. This issue could be addressed by introducing a smart memory cast, a cast that...master thesis 2023

ziaiemehr, turan (author)There are places you have never been, yet you learn about them once you are there. There are also places you have never even dreamed possible, yet even after visiting them, your imagination never limits. One of these is Tbilisi.<br/>Persians, Byzantines, Ottomans, Russians, and Soviets all contributed to the construction of the image of Tbilisi...master thesis 2023

Culmone, C. (author), Yikilmaz, Semih Fatih (author), Trauzettel, F. (author), Breedveld, P. (author)Conventional medical instruments are not capable of passing through tortuous anatomy as required for natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery due to their rigid shaft designs. Nevertheless, developments in minimally invasive surgery are pushing medical devices to become more dexterous. Amongst devices with controllable flexibility, so...review 2023

Gao, Mingyu (author), Chakraborty, S.S. (author), Kulahcioglu Ozkan, Burcu (author)The Probabilistic Concurrency Testing (PCT) algorithm that provides theoretical guarantees on the probability of detecting concurrency bugs does not apply to weak memory programs. The PCT algorithm builds on the interleaving semantics of sequential consistency, which does not hold for weak memory concurrency. It is because weak memory...conference paper 2023

Diware, S.S. (author), Singh, A. (author), Gebregiorgis, A.B. (author), Joshi, Rajiv V. (author), Hamdioui, S. (author), Bishnoi, R.K. (author)Computation-in-memory (CIM) paradigm leverages emerging memory technologies such as resistive random access memories (RRAMs) to process the data within the memory itself. This alleviates the memory-processor bottleneck resulting in much higher hardware efficiency compared to von-Neumann architecture-based conventional hardware. Hence, CIM...journal article 2023

Liu, M. (author), Zhu, Jia-Ning (author), Popovich, V. (author), Borisov, E. (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author), Gonzalez Garcia, Y. (author)Electrochemical tests and surface analysis measurements were performed to study the corrosion behavior in a 0.9 wt.% NaCl solution at 37 °C of three NiTi shape memory alloys fabricated by laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF). The passive film characteristics and corrosion resistance of L-PBF NiTi showed different features as a function of their...journal article 2023

Breitwieser, Lukas (author), Hesam, A.S. (author), Rademakers, Fons (author), Luna, Juan Gómez (author), Mutlu, Onur (author)Agent-based modeling plays an essential role in gaining insights into biology, sociology, economics, and other fields. However, many existing agent-based simulation platforms are not suitable for large-scale studies due to the low performance of the underlying simulation engines. To overcome this limitation, we present a novel high...conference paper 2023

de Alvear Cardenas, Jose Ignacio (author)Despite the camera being ubiquitous to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), it has not been used for fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) due to the nonexistence of UAV multi-sensor datasets that include actuator failure scenarios. This thesis proposes a knowledge-based FDD framework based on a lightweight Long-Short Term Memory network that fuses...master thesis 2022

van den Ham, Pieter (author)Computer architectures with weak memory models, such as ARMv8 and ARMv7, allow memory accesses to be reordered in many situations.<br/>Therefore, weak memory models may cause a program to exhibit more behavior than a strong memory model, such as x86.<br/>Fency is a static analysis tool that inserts memory fences to ensure that a program exhibits...master thesis 2022

Bosch, Sjoerd (author)This project focuses on the architect’s attitude performing in non-urban landscapes. As a case study the landscape of the Reitdiep river in Groningen (NL) has been intensely researched. Here, a strong interaction between myself and the physical landscape has been informing the design process. Through defining characteristics of the landscapes by...master thesis 2022

Linssen, Jonathan (author)A broad range of bistable, multi-stable and neutrally stable compliant mechanisms have been developed over the years. These non-monostable systems show great potential for deployment in e.g. the medical, the manufacturing and the precision industry. Often the presence of prestress is a requirement for obtaining non-monostability within the realm...master thesis 2022

Li, Yanzhe (author)Longer lifespans and an ageing population put tremendous pressure on the care of the elderly. With the technology of robotics breakthroughs, it appears that the use of robotics in elderly care is ready to take off. Interestingly, more and more robots are now being created with a human-like appearance and demeanour, yet this could lead to issues...master thesis 2022

Damsteegt, Rob (author)Scalable universal quantum computers require classical control hardware, physically close to the quantum devices at cryogenic temperatures. Such classical controllers need digital memory for various applications, ranging from high-speed queues to high-speed and low-speed lookup tables and working memory. The power consumption of the memories...master thesis 2022

Klein Gunnewiek, Kato (author)In the middle of the picturesque quarter of Kosančićev Venac in Belgrade, a small empty crater is to be found. Once, the National Library of Belgrade stood here, but it got bombed during the second world war. Now it seems there is nothing more but some ruins of the original building. In multiple cases in Belgrade, the questions of how to deal...master thesis 2022
