Vehicle-2-Home (V2H) is a concept in which an electric vehicle (EV) is able to charge and discharge its battery pack to the building it is connected to. This concept enables EVs to store surplus solar energy, which is produced during the daytime and return in to buildings during the night time. For this system to work (cost) efficiently, the EVs...

The modeling method for the performance of positive displacement pumps of hydraulic pumps is based on collecting operational data of the pump for its operational envelope and using equations with empirical fitting parameters and fit these equations to the data. This way values for the fitting parameters are obtained, with which the equations can...

Plunge freezing is used as a sample preparation method to freeze biological samples in a vitrified thin water layer of <500nm. Typically sample is loaded on thin (<10nm) carbon membranes of a copper mesh grid. The vitrified biological sample is imaged using high resolution cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (Cryo-EM).The common...

Reduction of skin-friction drag over a fully developed canonical zero-pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer (ZPGTBL) subjected to spanwise oscillation is measured using planar particle image velocimetry (PIV). The experiments are conducted at Re<sub>θ</sub> of 1000 and 1800, the chosen range of spanwise oscillations amplitude and frequency...

Cycling in hot and humid environment is demanding for the body. Olympics 2020 will be in Tokyo and the weather is expected to be hot and humid. Performance of the cyclist will be below par if they do not adopt various strategies to keep themselves cool. This project focuses on the development of new jersey with PVA fabric integrated in it to...

This project is based on two sustainable construction methods, namely up-cycling (reuse of materials) and vertical farming (green facades). These two concepts are combined to form a ‘Do It Yourself’ double skin façade, a double skin façade made with re-used sliding doors, which is aimed to be capable of developing ‘Edible Green’, which refers to...

The goal of this project is to see if we can improve the treatment plan for proton therapy by using reduced order models and adjoint theory for proton therapy. We shall use a singular value decomposition on a dose distribution matrix to obtain the modes from which we can reconstruct every dose distribution. Using adjoint methodologies for proton...

As our modern society keeps changing, the role of universities as a source of creating opportunities for academic entrepreneurs to transform their scientific knowledge into a viable business is becoming significantly important. Even though academic institutions and universities have played a big role in the transfer of knowledge into...

When data in higher dimensions with a certain constraint on it, say a set of locations on a sphere, is encountered, some classical statistical analysis methods fail, as the data no longer assumes its values in a linear space. In this thesis we consider such datasets and aim to do likelihood-based inference on the center of the data. To model the...

Recent advancements in Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar techniques has created a paradigm shift in the overall radar technology to increase degrees of freedom in multi-function radar capabilities. The underlying principle of MIMO transmissions is to transmit independent waveforms from each antenna-element which do not interfere with...

In order to achieve redundancy and improve the robustness of an autonomous driving system, radar is a suitable choice for road user detection task in severe working conditions (e.g. darkness, bad weather). However, the real-time multi-class radar based road user detection algorithm is less explored compared with camera and LiDAR solutions. To...

With growing interest in wet adhesion, animals such as tree frogs are often used as paradigm for creating grippers in wet environments. Tree frogs are capable of attaching to surfaces under several conditions (smooth, rough, dry, wet, and flooded) due to the microstructure of their toe pads. This microstructure consists of pillar-shaped...

There has been a big increase in the use of social robots, such as Pepper, which use verbal communication as the main method of interacting with a human. Verbal communication with a robot is performed using Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) to recognize words from an audio stream containing speech.<br/>These social robots are being more...

Adaptive optics are widely used to correct the wavefront distortion imposed by atmospheric turbulence. Focal plane phase retrieval from intensity measurements has advantages due to the ease of implementation, potential broader application, less computations, low cost, high system bandwidth, simplified hardware and less calibration. To cope with...

This thesis' work aims to evaluate the potential added benefit to spacecraft orbit determination procedures upon using non-conventional measurements for orbit reconstruction. As a spacecraft orbits a celestial body, its ground tracks will naturally cross previous ground tracks at many points. These locations, known as crossover points, yield...

Composite lattice structures (CLS) offer high performance and demonstrate significant mass savings in space structure applications. Local modifications of regular lattice designs have the potential to further improve the lattice performance. This research explored the micro-structural quality features of CLSs manufactured with pre-preg fibre...

Imagine a neighborhood where almost all of the decisions are left to its inhabitants; a neighborhood where all of the inhabitants cultivate soil to grow their food for their own consumption, in other words prosumerism*. This newly established neighborhood is Oosterwold which is located in the intersection of Dutch cities Almere and Zeewolde....

With the advent of social robots which are designed to be 'social', human-like interactions have become a necessity. It is natural for us to use a plethora of emotions to convey additional information or to make an interaction more engaging. But emotion expression is not commonly associated with robots. Many humanoid robots cannot generate...
