Due to growing power consumption and the energy transition, installation of high-voltage underground cables (HVUC) is becoming increasingly crucial for increasing transmission capacity while minimising societal and environmental disruption. This thesis, completed in a professional setting at Witteveen+Bos, …

This thesis consists of developing two jet grouting models through the programme PLAXIS, where the conventional method is compared to the innovative lamella method; with the purpose of finding which one is more suitable to reduce settlements in real life. These are then compared with real life data obtained …

The Vietnam Mekong Delta (VMD) is an essential region providing food security. According to The World Bank (2024), the Mekong Delta is the Vietnamese centre of rice production, with 50% of the country’s rice production and 90% of exports. Besides its agricultural activity, VMD is also an important aquacultural …

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 …

Hospitality and air transport are closely connected, and any disruption in the air transport network will have an impact on airport hotels. Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is becoming more and more constrained due to flight limitations, regulatory pressure, and disruptions. Hyatt Place Amsterdam Airport, …

Radiotherapy departments face increasing pressure due to rising patient volumes, workforce shortages, and complex multidisciplinary workflows. Although Hospital Information Systems (HIS) capture time‑stamped workflow data, these data are rarely transformed into actionable insights that support continuous …

Voor parasnowboarders met een fysieke beperking aan de onderste extremiteit is het bereiken van een optimale techniek complex. Door het ontbreken van een functioneel enkelgewricht, proprioceptie en feedback vanuit de voetzool missen zij de natuurlijke informatiestroom die valide snowboarders gebruiken …

Het onderzoek ontwikkelt een geïntegreerd procesraamwerk dat parallel plannen en parametrisch ontwerpen combineert om de Nederlandse woningbouw te versnellen, betaalbaar en duurzaam te maken binnen een circulaire bouweconomie. Het kwalitatief-exploratieve onderzoek, gebaseerd op literatuur, expertinterviews …

This report explores the thermal and physical behaviour of real and plant-based food products during pre-cooking in air-steam ovens, aiming to inform the development of a predictive cooking model. Key properties like water holding capacity, shrinkage, shrinkage and behaviours like weight loss were experimentally …

This research has proved that the implementation of a Modular Connection System (MCS1) for the “WET CELL” project is not only possible but also promising, as it successfully demonstrates how modularity, circularity, and material reusability can be achieved through the optimal design and material selection. …
