The Construction Industry holds an important role by contributing around 6% to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) based on data from Market Prospects. Despite this substantial contribution, numerous projects within the industry struggle to attain their objectives effectively. Project uniqueness, coupled with the impact of project complexity, leads...

The use of welding is widely adopted to assemble structural components in the construction industry for many years. To ensure safety of these welded components, many fatigue tests have been conducted on many different shapes and configurations of welded connections to precisely assess the fatigue<br/>life. However, testing real-size structures...

Inefficient installation of pile foundations may lead to high risks of material damage, inadequate pile capacity, and time delays that can have significant financial implications to any kind of project, both onshore and offshore. Therefore, there is high demand for a comprehensive driveability analysis that considers key aspects of the...

The goal of this research is to provide insights into the relationships between complexities and risks to be used in risk analysis and management of complex construction projects. In preparation of the exploratory survey, a literature study is performed. After that, the CBRAT (Complexity Based Risk Assessment Technique) is designed to capture...

Gait event detection allows for insight into one’s gait pattern, an invaluable aid in rehabilitation. Current methods often rely on measured acceleration and rarely on position measurements [3]–[6]. In this paper we propose 4 novel gait detection methods based on the position of the Center of Mass (one approach being causal and thus suitable for...

Context: SMEs make up the major share of the manufacturing and trading industry in Hong Kong. Recently, the industry is faced with growing environmental uncertainty that may result in new challenges, consequently giving rise to a different set of needs concerning B2B relationships. These needs may present opportunities for alternative B2B...

The Internet-of-Things has grown much in popularity over the past years, leading to the gathering of large amounts of pervasive and detailed data. This same trend is seen in the agriculture industry, where a lot of data can be collected on the cultivation methods. The agriculture industry is considered to be a strategically interesting industry...

Numerous studies on XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language) have been conducted in the past two decades. However, the research on the dynamic issues during XBRL adoption and implementation stages are still left unaddressed. The aim of this study is to develop a framework of factors that influence the process of XBRL adoption and...

Seaports are often protected against waves and currents by rubble mound breakwaters. At the interface between outer breakwater slope and seabed a toe structure is often build, which provides stability to the outer slope. The toe consists of a relatively small heap of rock. Since 1977 dedicated studies are made to the stability of these rock...

This study investigates the stability of rocks in breakwater toes. Previous studies have coupled the toe stability directly to the wave height, which is not physically accurate. In this study the local hydraulic conditions at the point of incipient motion are considered. First the forces acting on a single stone are identified. Thereafter the...

The IH2VOF model can be used to simulate wave-structure interaction. This additional thesis aims to evaluate the performance of the IH2VOF model for determining the local hydraulic properties (flow velocities and water pressures) near the toe structure of a rubble mound breakwater. Firstly, the model is introduced and the appropriate...

This study aims at understanding the factors influencing the organisational adoption of eHealth by Dutch hospitals. This study proposes a model for organisational eHealth adoption based on the Technological-Organisational-Environmental (TOE) framework and elements of the Diffusion of Innovations (DOI) theory. The following factors were...

This report presents the results of a master thesis with the objective to develop an active toe angle concept on vehicles with a multi-link rear suspension. The result is a design for a concept which uses the roll of the vehicle and adjustments of the suspensions geometry as drivers. From a market analysis, three technologies are defined to...

Scour formation at the toe of a rubble mound breakwater can lead to abrupt failure. Nowadays, counteraction of scour via geometrically closed filter rules, geotextiles or combinations is the common practice. Alternatively, in specific cases the use of geometrically open filters can save significant amount of time and decrease constructional...

This thesis is about the stability of toe material for rubble mound breakwaters in depth limited conditions. The present equation, Van der Meer 1998, gives results for depth limited conditions but is not validated. The empirical equation is based on physical model tests done by Gerding 1993. The Van der Meer equation implies deep water and...

This thesis investigates the stability of rocks in toe bunds for rubble mound breakwaters. Presently recommended design tools lack a reasonable degree of accuracy to assess required toe element dimensions. The goal of this research is to improve the insight in the physical process related to stability of toe bund elements under wave load....

Existing stability relationships for toe and slope structures of rubble mound breakwaters (e.g. by Gerding and Van der Meer) are empirical and do not give a clear insight in the actual physical processes near the structure. In this research an attempt is made to enlarge this insight and to derive new stability relationships in which this insight...
