The research was designed for international students who followed the European Studies four-year English program at The Hague University, as an increasing number of international students are coming to receive their higher education in the Netherlands. Foreign students need to adapt socially and academically …

This final paper analyzes the reasons why the client, IHS, The Institute for Housing and Urban Development Studies of Erasmus University Rotterdam, faced decreasing numbers in the Latin American students in the past few years. The scope of the research is to determine the internal and external factors …

Damen Shipyards is always on the lookout for new emerging niche markets. It appeared one of the most promising emerging niche markets is the offshore oil and gas infrastructure decommissioning industry. Therefore Damen produced a preliminary design of an offshore oil and gas infrastructure decommissioning …

A system was designed and assembled to measure the critical temperature of superconductive thin niobium titanium nitride films. The films were produced via a process called sputtering. The parameters used during this process were characterized to produce films with as high as possible critical temperature …

The purpose of this research is to document research conducted on the topic of statelessness in the European Union. The main question of this research is: How can the European Union succeed in eliminating statelessness in the European Union member states? In order to answer this question, different research …

This report describes the research and development of the design of a new solenoid solution that can tip fruit two ways on the K-carrier machine. Chapter one gives some background information on the company and the assignment. It gives an explanation of the machine its operation with different pictures. Chapter …

Abstract A setup is designed and constructed to perform specular reectance spectroscopy on an enzymatic reaction, while simultaneously monitoring the heat produced by the reaction using a FLIR camera. The spectrum of ethanol was recorded using two MCT detectors and showed clear overlap with literature …

Raman spectroscopy is an optical technique that is based on the inelastic scattering of light. It is non-invasive, fast, objective and easy to use. These traits make it an ideal tool for use in medical diagnosis. Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer. Currently, melanomas are visually diagnosed …

This thesis gives an overview about how YCall (a VoIP App) can be positioned in the Dutch market. This positioning helps to minimalize information overload in the mind of consumer, and thereby leaving a clear impression and message about the product and brand. Thus, by designing the most suitable market …

The thermally-sensitive resistors (thermistors) used in VSL’s water calorimeter to detect the radiation-induced temperature change in water are affected by self-heat. The measurement current used to determine their resistance causes their temperature to increase above that of their environment. The self-heat …
