The proposed research examines the international practicality of a large industrial production hall which is under development by GBS Plovdiv AD in Industrial Park Shumen, Bulgaria. The main goal is to evaluate whether the current technical design may be applied in different European regulatory and environmental …

Though the problem of water risks is growing and becoming more evident, there is a lack of structured information about how these risks are managed through the certification process. While there are certain credits dedicated to managing water risks and implementing measures in regard to them in the …

The goal of this project is to investigate the feasibility and value of a modular tool system for the Roberine machine platform (seen in Figure 1). Currently, the Roberine is used as a mowing machine with a limited range of available tools. This may reduce its versatility compared to competing machines …

This research held two main intentions, the first being to analyze what subsurface layouts have what kinds of effects on pipe length for the dike failure mechanism, and the second being to create a model using this information and knowledge. The first intention was completed using two different programs: …

Despite the key roles of circular startups and investors in enabling the transition towards a circular economy, weak connections have been found between the two actors, limiting effective collaboration and the exchange of resources. While previous research demonstrated the beneficial role of intermediaries …

The Netherlands is undergoing a massive (re)construction challenge. In addition to building new housing, a substantial part of the existing building stock of housing corporations is undergoing renovation. This renovation challenge has varying interactions with the energy transition, testified by the …

From March 2014 to September 2016, the instruments in the Rosetta Plasma Consortium (RPC) onboard the European Space Agency's Rosetta spacecraft measured the plasma environment of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P/CG) in detail. Multiple datasets of these instruments show instances of asymmetric and …

Recent years have shown a growing effort in the evaluation of DNA given activity level propositions. Yet, its implementation remains challenging for forensic scientists due to the complexity of assessing relevant DNA TPPR mechanisms. One particular challenge is the sparsity of relevant experimental data …

CO₂ emissions from electricity generation in the Netherlands fluctuate on an hourly basis, depending on which power plants are active in the energy mix. Accurate next-day forecasts of these emissions would enable companies to align energy consumption with low emission periods, but reliable forecasting …

By addressing the sub-research questions, the main research question and data mining goal were answered. Drought tolerance can be quantified using yield loss between control and drought treatments and robustly assessed by ranking varieties within each year. Varieties that consistently rank high or low …
