The most common cause leading to the total hip arthroplasty is the joint disorder osteoarthritis. Due to osteoarthritis pain will increase over time, to the point the disease will influence the quality of the daily life of people. A total hip arthroplasty (THA) will be the solution to relieve the patient of the damaged hip. Among 33.497 patients...

Rainfall runoff modeling is a major task of many hydrologist. Therefore always a lot of research is done to modeling. One of the problems of modeling is often the lack of data. Most of the world is data scarce, in the sense that no discharge is being measured. Although this is the case, it is often preferable to make a model of a catchment in...

Some medicines, tests and vaccines are sensitive to heat and/or cold. Therefore they need to be transported and stored in a constant temperature between 20C and 80C to keep their medicinal properties. These items constitute the Cold Chain, the preservation of temperature from manufacturing until administration. This is a considerable obstacle in...

In this thesis, we present an interactive remote volume-rendering system. Our system tries to bridge the gap between complex medical volume data and the patient. The user can easily upload their own data, which they receive from the clinician after a scan, which they can then visualize. Our application does not require any medical or volume...

The up-scaling of flotation equipment has been investigated based on comparisons between laboratory, pilot and industrial scale flotation tests and a characterization study of large-scale industrial flotation cells in Boliden’s Aitik copper mine in Northern Sweden. The use of high volume flotation cells has nowadays become more and more common...

Accurate flow rate measurements are very important in production testing. Originally small and insignificant deviations could propagate in subsequent applications where flow rate data is used as input parameter. Vx multiphase flow meters give much more information compared to conventional test separators. This extra data can be used for extra...

In the field of exploration geophysics various methods are applied to determine the physical properties of the subsurface of the Earth. Some of the methods most widely used are seismic and electromagnetic surveys, which are each used according to the type of information that is being sought and their ability to provide that information. The...

Titanium surfaces modified by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) have attractive physico-chemical characteristics that may favor osseointegration of bone implants. This study aimed at delineating the effects of PEO topography and surface calcium on the in vitro pre-osteoblasts response. Two different surfaces were generated by varying the...

This Master graduation project describes the product development of the Philips Lifeshield, a smartwatch that provides cardiopulmonary resuscitation guidance device for (untrained) lay responders. The problem is that every year between 350,000 and 700,000 Europeans suffer and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. In 51% of the cases these events are...

Van der Boor, M.C. (author)
In clastic rock, the interpretation of facies from the spectral gamma-ray log should be applied with caution because a consistent relationship with gamma-ray is lacking due to variations in provenance and/or diagenesis. In this thesis the use of the gamma-ray log for the derivation of source rock characteristics and/or diagenesis is examined....

Seismic interferometry is the process where new impulse responses, i.e. Green’s functions, are retrieved between two points by cross-correlation, convolution or deconvolution of wavefield responses. Seismic interferometry is also referred to as Green’s function retrieval. Newly retrieved Green’s function might contain spurious events that arise...

When one wants to make use of variable acoustics in a theatre, the volume of the auditorium is often changed by altering the ceiling height of the room. Besides this, an orchestra shell is placed to direct the sound towards the audience and to prevent delayed reverberation from the fly tower. Thus, extra space for the acoustic volume is created...

Centrifugal compressors form an integral part of automotive turbochargers. Strict emission regulations and increased engine downsizing in the automotive industry are pushing the turbocharger centrifugal compressors to provide the charged air at very lower mass flow rates. However, at low mass flow rates, the operation and application of...

In deze scriptie beginnen we met het opbouwen van wat algemene Lie-theorie. Om dat te doen leggen we eerst uit wat variëteiten zijn. Ook zullen we enkele eigenschappen van matrix Lie groepen en Lie algebra's bestuderen. Daarna definiëren we Jacobi polynomen door middel van hypergeometrische reeksen. Ook zullen we een aantal eigenschappen van...

The sediment composition of the sea bed is of relevance for various coastal properties such as bed forms, beach slopes and marine ecology. Furthermore it may significantly influence the morphological evolution of the coast. Knowledge about the processes forcing the spatial distribution of a certain grain size is therefore of great importance....
