Autonomous navigation is a critical aspect of robotic systems, particularly in hostile and uncertain environments, and robot localization is central to navigation. Robot localization establishes its position within its surroundings. This thesis addresses the challenge of robot localization, focusing on a lunar-like environment with constraints...

Recognition justice is a form of justice that is achieved when people from different backgrounds can participate in society as peers, without having to assimilate to a dominant party. It is currently not being represented in climate change or conflict models.<br/><br/>This research aims to conceptualise recognition justice for use in agent-based...

In Sustainable Software Engineering there is a need for tooling and guidelines for developers. In this research we aim to provide such guidelines. We find that for our experimental setup and set of benchmarks 500 samples gives results that are likely stable at a 1% threshold in their Relative Confidence Interval Width. Running benchmarks with a...

Private cars are inefficient in terms of land allocation. Car-free neighbourhoods offer a solution to this inefficiency by enforcing less car-centric urban design, expensive parking fees, and prioritising more sustainable and space-efficient modes of transportation. Carsharing services emerge as an alternative to private car ownership by...

The rapid advancement of quantum computing and communication (QCC) technologies promises transformative benefits for companies, yet also poses ethical and societal challenges reminiscent of historical technological introductions. This study addresses the Collingridge Dilemma, which posits that controlling technology becomes increasingly...

This thesis explores the impact of transport disadvantage on the unemployed's participation in out-of-home activities beyond the labor market. It delineates eight distinct groups primarily based on transport accessibility and car availability among the unemployed, assessing how these factors are shaped by socio-demographic characteristics and...

Malnutrition is worsening, affecting every country and over 3 billion people. There is evidence that rising CO<sub>2</sub> levels will not only indirectly increase malnutrition through climate change effects, but also directly through a downshift in the plant ionome, reducing nutritional quality and increasing hidden hunger. Attempts to...

In recent years, there has been growing interest in exploring the deployment of wave energy converters (WECs) in remote and harsh environments. However, research in this area remains limited, particularly concerning offshore environments with sea ice. This study focuses on investigating the energy production and economic feasibility of a point...

In a biomechanical engineering study, a pressure-activated, colour-changing, and flexible material has been developed, stemming from an initial problem application. However, a technical innovation can transcend its original intent, thereby gaining value for engineers or technical managers. The problem is that there is a lack of guidance in...

Offshore Floating Wind Energy (OFWE) presents a promising yet underdeveloped sector due to its higher costs and engineering complexities compared to fixed-bottom systems. Unlike fixed-bottom systems, OFWE isn't restricted by water depth, offering over four times more ocean area for deployment. This flexibility allows for positioning wind farms...

Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs) have showcased remarkable effectiveness in capturing complex 3D scenes and synthesizing novel viewpoints. By inherently capturing the entire scene in a compact representation, they offer a promising avenue for applications such as simulators, where efficient storage of real-world data, fast rendering and dynamic...

Performance-driven generative design has been commonly used in engineering applications. In addition to performance metrics, aesthetics play an important role in the acceptance of generatively designed forms. When generating these shapes using generative programs, it is not clear in advance what the outcome will be, and thereby what they will...

Introduction: Individuals with burnout often experience cognitive challenges in general performance or the excessive effort to perform certain tasks. With the increasing work pace over the years, on average, over 10% of workers in Europe and over 17% in non-European countries had experienced burnout up until 2018 (Schaufeli, 2018). Personal...

Small satellites are a suitable alternative for large spacecraft for various space missions due to their flexibility, rapid production times, and cost-effectiveness. The development of micro-propulsion systems helps maximise the potential of miniaturised spacecraft. TU Delft contributes by researching novel techniques and developing its own...

Spiking neural networks implemented for sensing and control of robots have the potential to achieve lower latency and power consumption by processing information sparsely and asynchronously. They have been used on neuromorphic devices to estimate optical flow for micro air vehicles navigation, however robotic implementations have been limited to...

The transport sector needs to change to meet some of the global challenges we face: climate change, population growth and urbanisation. It needs to become more sustainable, which is why the Netherlands wants to introduce more high-quality bus systems. However, there are some barriers to implementing these systems.<br/><br/>In this thesis,...

For some, smart home living is a sign of the future, and provides an opportunity to solve major societal problems. For others, it is just a vague buzzword. This thesis project sought to explore the potential implications of living with smart and connected technologies in our most private spaces and to engage non-experts in a conversation about...

This study addresses the revenue losses from network congestion of an Offshore Wind Farm (OWF) resulting from the implementation of an Offshore Bidding Zone (OBZ) and explores potential measures to mitigate these effects. The quantitative analysis involves a model that simulates a hypothetical OWF located in the North Sea between Norway and the...
