Nembhani, Prithvish Vijaykumar (author)Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning have been the buzzwords in almost every industry (medical, automotive, defense, security, finance, etc.) for the last decade. As the market moves towards AI-based solutions, so does the computation need for these solutions increase and change with time. With the rise of smart cities...master thesis 2023

Botros, Alexander (author), Sadeghi, Armin (author), Wilde, N. (author), Alonso Mora, J. (author), Smith, Stephen L. (author)Many problems in robotics seek to simultaneously optimize several competing objectives under constraints. A conventional approach to solving such multi-objective optimization problems is to create a single cost function comprised of the weighted sum of the individual objectives. Solutions to this scalarized optimization problem are Pareto...conference paper 2023

Wang, N. (author)The pledge for a carbon-free energy system in 2050 requires significant investments into renewable energy sources (RES). The relevant questions are: what technologies to select, where to build them, how much the capacities are, and at what cost. In order to answer these techno-economic questions, optimization models are commonly used to sketch a...doctoral thesis 2022

Hoogenboom, Iwan (author)Solutions to many real-life optimization problems take a long time to evaluate. This limits the number of solutions we can evaluate. When optimizing with an Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) a frequently used approach is to approximate the objective using a surrogate function, replacing the time-consuming real evaluation. This surrogate model is...master thesis 2022

van Lonkhuyzen, Joost (author)Ambitious decarbonization targets are introduced to combat climate change. According to the European Commission, sector coupling is required to achieve these targets. This includes the inclusion of renewables into sectors that are difficult to decarbonize, but also using resources more efficient, and introducing new clean fuels. Recent research...master thesis 2022

Contreras Navarro, Francisco (author)Small islands that support urban communities provide a unique opportunity to study the urban water cycle, its energy needs, and possible links to renewable energy. The aim of this paper is to explore to what extent an island’s urban water cycle and the renewable electricity production system required to satisfy the urban water cycle’s demand can...master thesis 2022

de Vries, Joël (author)Single-Stage-To-Orbit (SSTO) launch vehicles are capable of reaching orbit while being potentially fully reusable. A technology capable of enabling SSTO access to space is the air-breathing engine, which has a high specific impulse and low thrust-over-weight (T/W) ratio compared to conventional rocket engines. This necessitates the use of a...master thesis 2022

Ketelaar, Max (author)This thesis concerns the application of different multi-objective optimization (MOO) methods and strategies for finding the optimal envelope for a given building plot and lighting performance indicators. More specifically, the PV potential and daylighting potential of the building are maximized using different optimization solvers. Auxilliary...master thesis 2022

Zhilyaev, D. (author), Binnekamp, R. (author), Wolfert, A.R.M. (author)Within traditional design processes, decisions are often made based on individualistic values and late-stage assessments conducted on a predefined set of design alternatives potentially leading to suboptimal design decisions and conflicts. The issues are further amplified by the growing complexity of construction project management where an...journal article 2022

Shi, W. (author), Dong, J. (author), Soeiro, Thiago B. (author), Riekerk, C. (author), Grazian, F. (author), Yu, G. (author), Bauer, P. (author)Due to the urgent desire for a fast, convenient, and efficient battery charging technology for electric vehicle (EV) users, extensive research has been conducted into the design of high-power inductive power transfer (IPT) systems. However, there are few studies that formulate the design as a multiobjective optimization (MOO) research...journal article 2022

Alves Beirigo, B. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Alonso Mora, J. (author), Schulte, F. (author)With the popularization of transportation network companies (TNCs) (e.g., Uber, Lyft) and the rise of autonomous vehicles (AVs), even major car manufacturers are increasingly considering themselves as autonomous mobility-on-demand (AMoD) providers rather than individual vehicle sellers. However, matching the convenience of owning a vehicle...journal article 2022

Liu, D. (author), Virgolin, Marco (author), Alderliesten, T. (author), Bosman, P.A.N. (author)Genetic programming (GP) is one of the best approaches today to discover symbolic regression models. To find models that trade off accuracy and complexity, the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) is widely used. Unfortunately, it has been shown that NSGA-II can be inefficient: in early generations, low-complexity models over...conference paper 2022
