Awareness of climate change and stricter emission regulations have accelerated the search for sustainable energy solutions. A central goal is carbon-neutral energy use, minimizing greenhouse gas emissions while ensuring reliable energy supply. In applications with limited grid access—such as festivals, …

To reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector, shifting to rail transport is crucial. This transition will increase the demand on existing rail infrastructure, necessitating large-scale monitoring to maintain its resilience. Point cloud data are an ideal candidate for this purpose, as …

This thesis centres on the Railway Viaduct at Kloetinge (Zeeland), a critical infrastructure element in operation since 1938. As of 2024, with its technical lifespan nearing its end at 86 years, the viaduct's longevity demands attention for its future viability. Situated on Viaduct Road, linking Kloetinge …

North Sea Port heeft samen met een groot aantal stakeholders in de regio het project Rail Ghent-Terneuzen in gang gezet. Een onderdeel binnen het project is de Zuidoostboog nabij de Sluiskilbrug. De nieuw aan te leggen spoorboog kruist het tracé van de Sluiskiltunnel, uit vooronderzoek blijkt dat de …

Gebreken in de spoorligging kunnen diverse gevolgen hebben op de spoorinfrastructuur en het herstellen van die gebreken kan oplopen tot tientallen duizenden euro’s. Strukton Rail is verantwoordelijk voor de onderhoud aan het spoor in zeven contractgebieden in Nederland. In 2019 zijn door Eurailscout …

Dit verslag bevat een omschrijving van de ontwikkeling van een applicatie die visuele weergave geeft van een simulatie van het ERTMS HL3 systeem met de mCRL2 taal en toolkit. De ontwikkeling van deze applicatie wordt uitgevoerd als afstudeeropdracht en is in opdracht van ProRail B.V. De opdracht is …

Strukton Rail wants to try new training methods for their employees by creating a virtual reality simulation where the workers can practice in a safe environment. Strukton employees have to do maintenance work in heights in the rail track. Besides the risks related to the actual job of working in heights, …

Strukton Rail is interested in facilitating training and increasing employee safety awareness through a VR simulation. In this paper it is discussed in how far audio can be used in order to increase the immersion of the simulation. Besides the well-known means of spatial audio, there are other means …

As Strukton Rail faces absence under employees that work on railroad construction sites, a change must be made. Part of this absence is caused by occupational accidents. With modern-day technology, Strukton Rail would like to explore the possibilities of a virtual reality training simulator to increase …

Greenhouses are in need of new monitoring tools, as they size grow bigger and bigger but still using old labour intensive methods ways of caring for the crop. HiPerGreen is set out to create a new tool, which can drive onto the pre-existing heating pipes to provide a birds eye perspective for image analysis …
