According to a report published by the Dutch Safety Investigation Board in early September 2019, the safety of remotely controlled bridges is not su_cient (Onderzoeksraad voor de Veiligheid, 2019, pg.58). This report was published after the occurrence of two severe accidents in Zaandam, on the Den Uylbrug and the Prins Bernhardbrug. On both...

This thesis gives a thorough description of the mathematical tool called reflection positivity, which can be used to prove the occurrence of phase transitions in physical models. A major result, although already known, is a theorem that gives tractable conditions on the Hamiltonian such that the Boltzmann functional is reflection positive. In...

This thesis presents two submodules which are part of 'an FM Chirp Waveform Generator and Detector for Radar', namely the mixer and the modulator. The goal of this project is to design and simulate these submodules from an educational perspective. The modulator is implemented as a single-ended common-base Colpitts oscillator with modulation...

Automatically generated 3D city models are becoming less of a futuristic, demanding or even impossible to attain goal, and more of a necessary, or vastly sought after, means for a multitude of applications. The current prevalence of open geographic information, such as nationwide-covering LiDAR datasets in the Netherlands, opens up opportunities...

This graduation project and the main topic that will be addressed derives from the context of the Hembrug terrain, in which the studio ‘Revitalising Heritage’ is placed. The problem statement, based on the initial site analysis, illustrated that the green and historical character of the Hembrug terrain may disappear due to the new proposed...

Historically, cities have played a major role in integrating newcomers into society. And in turn, many cities- including Amsterdam- have been shaped by migration. The conditions in neighborhoods in which many newcomers currently arrive do not offer the same flexibility. The graduation project proposes a strategy for the creation of inclusive...

In this work we consider the problem of cooperative formation control between heterogeneous agents when time-varying delays and/or packet loss are present. Specifically, we introduce a control law for nonlinear fully actuated mechanical agents that separates the cooperative coordinates from the local coordinates, which removes the necessity for...

In this thesis, the implementation of a passive, chipless, frequency coded RFID detection system for bedload transport studies is proposed. The proposed tag will be deployed in the semi-arid Río Colorado, Bolivia with the aim to develop quantitative sediment transport models that relate transport to grain size. Different algorithms are explored...

Technology developments are making it possible to start automating the last-mile of parcel logistics. This raises the question of how these autonomous technologies will interact with humans. The goal of this project is to design a concept of a delivery robot for DHL, that maximizes acceptance by pedestrians. <br/><br/>Literature research and...

The non-linear relation between Evapotranspiration (ET) and the atmospheric moisture demand in terms of vapor pressure deficit (VPD) has been widely reported. Observations point towards a diverse range of potential drivers; however, without uncovering why the identified factors are found to control diurnal ET-VPD hysteresis. Modelling efforts...

In this thesis, the implementation of a passive, chipless, frequency coded Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) tag for bedload transport studies is proposed. The proposed tag will be deployed in the semi-arid Río Colorado river, Bolivia with the aim to develop quantitative sediment transport models that relate transport to grain size. The...

In recent decades, gas production has caused numerous human-induced shallow earthquakes in the province of Groningen, The Netherlands. The buildings in this area were not designed for these unexpected earthquake loads and have shown to be vulnerable. However, current strengthening measures are considered to be time-consuming, expensive, and a...

This Master thesis presents an improved model for the transport of fine suspended sediment (SPM) in the Rhine region of fresh water influence (ROFI) and in the Port of Rotterdam. It is known that the transport of SPM in the Rotterdam harbor depends on marine as well as fluvial processes. SPM transport inside the harbor has been modelled in the...

The goal of this thesis is to present a framework which can be used to optimize the observer and controller performance by placement of sensors and actuators on a continuous domain. The framework provides choices of model structure, cost functions and optimization methods to perform the placement. Systems which would be suitable for the use of...

In the Netherlands a task-force, supported by the institute of curriculum development, Stichting Leerplan Ontwikkeling (SLO), has been assembled to define core objectives and learning goals for digital literacy that are to be finalized by 2019. The SLO defined digital literacy with the following four elements: ICT basic skills, computational...

An increase in apparent mode II fracture toughness in Fiber Reinforced Polymers has been found from modified Transverse Crack Tension (mTCT) tests with compressive stresses added orthogonal to the delamination plane. Numerical reproduction of these results has not yet led to a good understanding of the reasons for this behavior. Currently, an...

In this report, we briefly summarize the methodology behind the development of a web application for the municipality of the Hague. This application was developed by a group of students during the Synthesis Project (academic period 2017-2018) of the MSc Geomatics programme of TU Delft University, the Netherlands. The main purpose of this...

Free competition in the insurance markets increases the competitiveness and lowers the premiums. If insurers lower their premiums without having a model that accurately quantifies the expected claim size, they can be in serious trouble. This research aims to accurately model the premiums and quantify the uncertainty involved using historic...
