Carrondo do Amaral Magalhães Simões, Tomás (author)This thesis examines the approximation capabilities of path signatures within rough path spaces, focusing on both local and global universality. To this end, we provide a self-contained introduction to Rough Path theory, highlighting the interplay between additive and multiplicative functionals. This leads to the renowned Lyons' Extension...master thesis 2024

Witte, Daan (author)Cislunar space is getting increasingly important. Countries like the US and China are directing their attention towards the Moon with the Artemis and Chang’e missions. Simultaneously, space debris pollution of our orbits is escalating, increasing the risk of the Kessler syndrome occurring. Space Situational Awareness (SSA) aims to prevent this....master thesis 2024

Esposito, Lorenzo (author)Hyper-Velocity Impacts (HVI) from micrometeoroids and orbital debris pose a significant threat to satellites in low Earth orbit due to the higher density of sources and the resulting increased impact frequency. Understanding the stress field and dynamic behavior around impact points is critical for satellite design, structural integrity, and...master thesis 2024

Kocken, Maik (author)<b>Purpose</b>. Dutch universities must cope with evolving demand when aligning their real estate, facing uncertainty due to dynamic trends and a relatively static portfolio. The result is a strategy moving towards a resilient, shared and centralised campus, emphasising multi-purpose spaces. This shift involves shared building use, a strategy of...master thesis 2024

Wu, Wu (author)In the past 20 years, urban development in the Netherlands has witnessed an increasing scale and accessibility of the retail market, accompanied by a shift in shopping habits due to the rise of the virtual economy. This shift has contributed to the decline of many traditional retail sectors. Local governments often opt to revitalize the market...master thesis 2024

Englmann, Elena (author)With the shift in pedagogical and technological approaches towards hybrid learning concepts, architectural spaces also need to be adapted to meet the diverse needs of today’s learners. My project investigates how hybrid learning spaces can enhance the creative thinking process of lifelong learners. It explores design strategies to ensure that...master thesis 2024

Frencken, Maartje (author)Herten, which is a neighborhood in Roermond, has lost part of its sense of place as a result of recent urban expansions. This thesis links the sense of place to the concept of time and concludes, through a literature review, that the sense of place and sense of time can be comprehended through static, dynamic, and collective elements. The thesis...master thesis 2024

Gong, Sicong (author)With the proliferation of the IoT infrastructure, the trajectory data is dynamically emerging. This data originates from a variety of moving objects, containing big volumes of multi-dimensional information such as space, time, semantics etc. The underlying information can be potentially applied to create added value through scientific research,...master thesis 2024

Silvagni, Pietro (author)The congestion of orbits around the Earth, particularly in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), necessitates the implementation of space-based Space Situational Awareness (SSA) missions. This increasing orbital congestion, driven by the proliferation of mega constellations, poses significant challenges to satellite operations and collision avoidance. In...master thesis 2024

van Veen, Eltjo (author)In response to the automobile-oriented urban street designs, this study explores the implementation of "Fair Streets" in school zones in the Netherlands. This research aims to create a transition from only vehicle prioritization to also a focus on social, environmental, and community functions on streets around school zones. Currently, up to 50%...master thesis 2024

Flierman, Jesse (author)Offshore wind stands as a crucial contributor to generating clean, renewable energy, but the limited availability of shallow water locations restrains the potential of bottom-fixed wind. To unlock the vast wind energy potential in deeper waters, a substantial reduction in the Levelized cost of energy (LCOE) of floating wind technology is...master thesis 2024

Fu, Jinshi (author)In 2022, Golse and Paul defined a pseudometric for quantum optimal transport that extends the classical Wasserstein distance. They proved that the pseudometric satisfies the triangle inequality in certain cases. This thesis reviews their proof in the case where the middle point is a classical density. Motivated by that proof, we formulate the...master thesis 2024

Heumassej, Yannick (author)This study proposes the novel concept of recycling space debris as a means of supplying material resources for the establishment of a permanent Lunar presence while simultaneously cleaning up Earth’s orbital environment. This expands the scope of traditional debris mitigation efforts, which focus only on removing debris. As a first step, the...master thesis 2024

Follis, Patrick (author)Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is commonly used to optimize the power output of solar arrays for LEO satellites. Traditional MPPT techniques such as Perturb & Observe often struggle when the satellite is rotating and the temperature and incident irradiance are rapidly changing. This scenario frequently occurs with miniaturized...master thesis 2024

Mellink, Chaniek (author)Cities all over the world are densifying because of population growth and urban popularity. By 2050, more than two thirds of the global population is expected to live in cities. (Zumelzu & Herrman-Lunecke, 2021) This trend raises concerns about the influence of urban environments on mental well-being of residents, as city living has been...master thesis 2024

Ganchrow, R. (author)Sounds always occur ‘somewhere’, endowed with specific material ‘qualities’ that also indicate courses of action. Spatio-temporal qualities of sound, the contexts they enmesh, together with the attentions they sustain and actions they enfold, collectively constitute dynamic systems termed ‘circuits’. This research investigates the circuits...doctoral thesis 2024

Uppenkamp, Gijs (author)Offshore wind farms are increasing in size and moving further from shore. Service operation vessels (SOVs) are used for offshore wind operation and maintenance (O&M) at these large far offshore sites. These large vessels typically have a smaller daughter craft (DC) on board that can assist them. This DC is however too small to provide the...master thesis 2024
