Successive approximations and interval halving for fractional BVPs with integral boundary conditionsMarynets, K. (author), Pantova, D.H. (author)We study a system of non-linear fractional differential equations, subject to integral boundary conditions. We use a parametrization technique and a dichotomy-type approach to reduce the original problem to two “model-type” fractional boundary value problems with linear two-point boundary conditions. A numerical-analytic technique is applied...journal article 2024

Peirlinck, M. (author), Linka, Kevin (author), Hurtado, Juan A. (author), Kuhl, Ellen (author)Constitutive modeling is the cornerstone of computational and structural mechanics. In a finite element analysis, the constitutive model is encoded in the material subroutine, a function that maps local strains onto stresses. This function is called within every finite element, at each integration point, within every time step, at each Newton...journal article 2024

van Wissen, Alexis (author)Capable of both vertical take-off and landing and forward flight, tail-sitters are a versatile class of UAVs with a large range of potential applications. A variant of tailsitters using tilt-rotors instead of ailerons for pitch and roll control has been proposed to mitigate the reduced control authority at low to zero velocities. The control of...master thesis 2023

van Vliet, Lars (author)The impact of climate change, particularly the rise in sea levels, obstructs the effectiveness of existing coastal structures. Additionally, climate change can also have an amplifying effect on wind speeds (Takagi & Esteban, 2013). Without proper control, the accumulation of changing environmental boundary conditions could lead to disastrous...master thesis 2023

Almeida Benalcazar, E.F. (author)The mitigation of global warming requires an urgent shift from the fossil fuel-based productive matrix currently in place. Technological platforms are being developed to reduce the amount of carbon of fossil origin, which is emitted to the atmosphere as a side-product from the production of energy. Gas mixtures containing CO, H2 and CO2 are...doctoral thesis 2023
