The mimetic spectral element method is a relatively young method in numerical solutions of partial differential equations and actions that describe physical systems. Its advantage is that it takes the geometrical structure of the problem into account which guarantees consistency of the numerical scheme and the conservation of relevant quantities...

Adequate mechanical ventilation serves as the first and most important life-saving appliance during a tunnel fire. The most severe threat during a tunnel fire is the smoke. Most victims get incapacitated by the smoke, after which they decease from intoxication and/or suffocation. By means of mechanical ventilation, smoke-free escape routes via...

The importance of aerodynamic efficiency in the cycling sport is well known. Simple calculations demonstrate the considerable impact of just a few percentages in drag savings on the outcome of a competition where the margins can be incredibly small. Achieving a drag reduction can, however, be challenging as the flow topology of a cyclist is...

The use of multi-axis additive manufacturing has enabled the possiblity to fabricate parts using curved layer deposition. Compared to the traditional deposition using planar layers of a fixed thickness, multiaxis additive manufacturing significantly increases the number of possible fabrication sequences. With the introduction of a time component...

Metal additive manufacturing has enabled great diversity and design freedom in heat exchanger design. However, these benefits cannot be adequately realised without optimizing its ancillary components as well, specifically the inlet and outlet manifolds. Optimizing the manifolds can significantly improve the flow distribution inside the heat...

The edge flow reconstruction task improves the integrity and accuracy of edge flow data by recovering corrupted or incomplete signals. This can be solved by a regularized optimization problem, and the corresponding regularizers are chosen based on prior knowledge. However, obtaining prior information is challenging in some fields. Thus, we...

This thesis is about Van Kampen's theorem and fundamental groupoids. Van Kampen's Theorem is a classical result in algebraic topology, which proposes a way of calculating the fundamental group of a topological spaces using the fundamental groups of certain subspaces. In this thesis we will construct the fundamental group, which intuitively...

In the engineering industry, all structural parts have to be designed as efficient and lightweight as possible. Traditionally, the design process has been carried out through manual design iterations, which can be time-consuming and require significant engineering expertise. Over the last decades however, several computational design techniques...

Prediction of heat transfer phenomena and resulting temperature distributions is crucial among many appliances in the industry sector. In a vacuum, the dominant mode of heat transfer is conduction. The resulting temperature drop at the body’s interface is dependent on a parameter known as Thermal Contact Conductance (TCC) or, alternatively,...

The main problem in density-based two-fluid optimization is the fact that the two fluids often mix in optimal designs. Therefore, state-of-the-art two-fluid heat exchanger optimization includes non-mixing constraints. However, the current non-mixing constraints can only impose a constant wall-thickness between the two fluids. Depending on the...

Hierarchy is a network property that identifies the organisation and importance of network elements. Public transport systems consist of stops organised by connections, which can be regarded as networks. In a Public Transport Network (PTN) with a high hierarchy, the number of elements gradually decreases as their importance increases, where the...
