Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are two species of bacteria that are involved in numerous conditions, including lung infections and chronic wound infections. The aim of this project was to study the short-term interactions that occur when P. aeruginosa first encounters an established S. aureus colony, which it then seeks to...

This research paper focuses on improving the performance of cross-docking operations under uncertainty in the context of e-commerce logistics. The growth of e-commerce sales has increased product returns and complexity to supply chains. To address this issue, this study investigates how cross-docking operations can be improved under external and...

Bicycles have been studied extensively over the past 200 years, with mathematical models providing valuable insights into various aspects of bicycle dynamics and rider control. However, the lack of a common framework for creating and sharing bicycle-rider models hinders the development of advanced models, research reproducibility, and...

Introduction: During the sit-to-stand (STS) motion, thigh push-of (TP) is frequently used, yet the biomechanical advantage for the upper extremity, is relatively unknown. In this thesis, the STS motion is analyzed for three different techniques; TP, armrest push-off (AP), and no arm aid (NA). The aim of this study is to determine the...

Sorting systems form an example of event driven systems. These types of systems are referred to as discrete event systems (DES), and they consist of jobs that need to be performed at available resources. In an autonomous sorting system, jobs consist of robots receiving and delivering parcels at the correct locations. With scheduling, optimal...

“From chaos, order can emerge”, a counterintuitive statement but also one laying the foundation for complex living systems. Individually acting agents can collectively produce organised structures at a larger scale. Possibly the most ubiquitous example of this phenomenon are bacterial colonies.<br/>Everywhere around us, a pandemonium of pushing...

This research tries to quantitatively identify the relation between team composition, organization structure, communication and team efficiency. The study takes a model-based approach to reach its objective. This research stresses the utility of agent-based modeling as a tool to first replicate the environment of an on-going project in India and...

Enterprise Modelling (EM) is the process of producing models, which in turn can be used to support understanding, analysis, (re)design, reasoning, control and learning about various aspects of an enterprise. Various EM techniques and languages exist, and are often supported by computational tools, in particular simulation. The goal of this...

Stroke is a cerebrovascular disorder with 15 million cases every year worldwide. The most common symptom is motor deficits. In order to overcome such symptoms, the motor brain either repairs the damaged tissue or reorganises to compensate for the injured brain region. To stimulate this reorganisation transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS...

Guidelines dating back 50 years, NASA SP-8007, are employed today in the design of thin-walled launch vehicle structures. Due to advances in materials, structural designs, and manufacturing techniques since the publication of SP-8007, the development of new knockdown factors for contemporary launch vehicle structures is an ongoing subject of...

Due to connectivity problems, the attractiveness of public transport is limited. Policymakers aim to increase the modal share of public transport to protect the accessibility, livability, safety, sustainability and efficiency in the cities of the future. Applying Autonomous Mobility on-Demand (AMoD) systems as a feeder service for public...

In this study, a pressure filtration model for a slurry of milk fat crystal aggregates is developed, validated and used to investigate the effect of pressure-time profiles. The model focuses on the expression step and describes oil flow locally. The filter cake is modelled as a double porous non-linear elastic medium with permeabilities...

A complex marine project consist of series of operations, with each operation subject to a predefined operational limit and duration, depending on the equipment being used. If actual weather conditions exceed the operational limit, then the operation cannot be executed and hence downtime occurs. It is up to contractors, such as Boskalis, to...

In this thesis diffuser performance will be simulated with computational fluid dynamics, which will be done with the program Ansys Fluent. The expanding geometry creates an adverse pressure gradient and under certain conditions there will also be separation.<br/><br/>At first a relative simple simulation will be done of a one-directional...

Muscle spindle is an organ of proprioception that plays an important role in neuro-muscular control of the human joints. It is composed of intrafusal fibers, the mechanical properties of which determine the afferent response of the spindle. Intrafusal fibers are not homogenous: they are composed of many sarcomeres, have localized fusimotor...

Models are an important tool for decision making. However, in order to get proper results, these models must be validated and only be used in situations where the conditions of the validation apply. Blind trust on a model can lead to unexpected and inaccurate results. Advancements can be made to reduce the number of situations where this occurs....

The ability to simulate brain neurons in real-time using biophysically-meaningful models is a critical pre-requisite grasping human brain behavior. By simulating neurons' behavior, it is possible, for example, to reduce the need for in-vivo experimentation, to improve artificial intelligence and to replace damaged brain parts in patients. A...

The objective of this thesis project is to analyze the traffic behaviour that the Shared Space approach assumes to enforce in a traffic space designed according to its principles, and to determine the impact of this behaviour on traffic performance and safety, isolated from location-specific elements. This is done by means of a new conceptual...
