Hydrogen is an interesting and promising alternative for fuels. Currently, most hydrogen is produced via a process called steam reforming, where a reaction between methane and water occurs, with carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide as waste products and released in the atmosphere. This work presents a study on the sustainable production of...

An unintended yaw is a persistent accident characterised by an unexpected helicopter rotation around the yaw axis without the pilot’s intention and any technical malfunctions. Unintended yaw accidents are one of the top operational causes of helicopter accidents, causing serious damages and fatalities each year. This thesis in collaboration with...

This paper presents an encoder-decoder-style convolutional neural network (CNN) for the purpose of improving monocular and stereo depth estimation (SDE) estimates, by combining them with the corresponding monocular estimates through a fusion network, assisted by prior information to provide context for the fusion. Video cameras are commonly used...

Hyper-Velocity Impacts (HVI) from micrometeoroids and orbital debris pose a significant threat to satellites in low Earth orbit due to the higher density of sources and the resulting increased impact frequency. Understanding the stress field and dynamic behavior around impact points is critical for satellite design, structural integrity, and...

The mini optical ground station (MISO), on top of the Aerospace Engineering faculty, serves the purpose of demonstrating Free Space Optical Communication technology. A downlink from low earth orbit imposes pointing requirements beyond what can be achieved by the telescope mount. A Fine Pointing Assembly (FPA), the topic of this thesis, aims to...

This thesis explores how electronic human resource management (e-HRM) enhances employee performance in technology startups. During their transition phase, technology startups face challenges, such as maintaining effective communication, sustaining organizational culture, and managing growth. These challenges reduce employee performance,...

Linssen, Mara (author)
Large complex infrastructural projects and programs show cost overruns and delays. As these are often funded by governmental bodies, the cost overruns also have an economic impact for society. Where projects are focused on delivering their scope within time and budget, a program is focused on achieving a broader goal. To do so, a program...

To reduce greenhouse gas emissions in aviation, innovative propulsion systems such as battery-powered electric aviation are essential. These systems are carbon neutral when powered by 100% green electricity. However, widespread adoption requires overcoming challenges including improving energy density, lowering costs, and maintaining safe...

This thesis investigates a container drayage problem involving terminals, depots, and shippers. Each terminal operates a homogeneous fleet of trucks that start and end at their respective terminals, carrying either one 40ft or two 20ft containers, and can make multiple trips within a single planning horizon. Terminals handle full containers and...

The building sector's substantial environmental impact, responsible for 40% of total energy consumption and one-third of CO2 emissions globally, emphasises the urgency to enhance energy efficiency. While there are potentials for energy savings, there are still challenges that need to be faced. In particular, a significant ‘performance gap’...

Several incidents involving the installation of temporary traffic signs by road workers have raised concerns about the effectiveness of these signs. Even in the absence of incidents, effectiveness is a relevant question, made more urgent by the incidents and the high risk of collision faced by road workers installing the signs. This paper...

Large Language Models (LLMs) have emerged as pivotal in content generation, offering profound societal impacts. Previous research has highlighted their propensity to generate content that breaches societal norms. Misuse of LLMs poses significant ethical concerns, including misinformation spread, social unrest, and political manipulation. To...

Dust emissions developed during the handling of dry bulk products pose increased risks for health, safety and the environment. Legislation drives bulk handling facilities to face the challenge of maintaining dust emissions within limitations. At the bulk terminal of Verbrugge multiple bulk products are handled, making the dust control problem...

Quad-planes combine hovering and vertical takeoff and landing capability with fast and efficient forward flight. Regular Quad-planes with dedicated pusher motor can be subject to gust disturbances, and are not well-equipped to deal with actuator faults. Dual-axis Tilt-Rotor quad-planes are more maneuverable due to their overactuation. This also...
