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 …

This thesis introduces a cost-effective methodology for estimating tire contact patch forces and moments at wheel centre using axial force measurements from suspension linkages. The primary aim is to reconstruct these dynamic quantities, eliminating reliance on expensive wheel force transducers (WFTs) …

This research developed and validated a cost-effective proof-of-concept system to measure tyre forces and moments. The C 8k setup was calibrated and verified against a wheel force transducer, demonstrating accurate measurements of the wheel axis. Road tests at the RDW test centre captured both linear …

This research report investigates three different measuring methods of bed level heigh on tidal flats. A background on the dynamics of tidal flats, the importance and the reason for doing research into their geomorphology and dynamics was done next set up. Next to this, detailed explanations about the …

This research is focused on the circumstances related to rainwater flooding in the Municipality of Valkenburg aan de Geul, located in the south of the Netherlands. The town has been dealing with flooding from rainwater for as long as its inhabitants can remember, but the situation became much more severe …

This thesis presents the design, development, and evaluation of a Mixed Reality (MR) training application aimed at identifying methods of artificially inducing stress to enhance realism in Emergency Response simulations. Emergency Responders are often in stressful scenarios and require a high stress …

The outdoor model of the FAT Scope interactive binoculars by 100%FAT has marketing potential, but its current hardware setup has prohibitively high power draw from its battery. This research aims to measure the power draw, find significantly contributing components and investigate their optimization …

Over the period February 2023 to July 2023, the aim was to develop a method for the determination of endotoxin in pharmaceutical products according to GMP rules. To bring this research to a successful conclusion, the intention was to demonstrate endotoxins in pharmaceutical products using the Kinetic …

Mentale problematiek wordt een steeds groter wereldwijd probleem. Wereldwijd heeft 1 op de 8 mensen last van mentale problematiek. In Nederland volgt deze trend en in de periode 2019-2022 had 51,8% van de vrouwen last van psychische problemen. In Nederland wordt de zorg voor mensen met psychische problematiek …

The research client Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp (hereafter: botanic), a five-star superior hotel, commissioned a research to determine ways of implementing sustainable practices in the Meeting & Events (M&E) department, whilst maintaining superior quality.The research, using the Design-Based Research (DBR) …
