Many modern unitised façades rely on structural sealant glazing (SSG) to accommodate building drift and slab deflection. However, when hung-and-sworded panels undergo racking, the resulting shear strains expose limitations in current design workflows. While it is common practice to use simplified linear …

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 …

De energietransitie in de gebouwde omgeving vraagt om instrumenten die plannen, data en stakeholderbelangen op wijkniveau samenbrengen. Een urban digital twin (UDT) kan die rol vervullen, maar voor de wijk Laakhaven-Oost was nog niet helder welke eisen stakeholders aan zo'n tool stellen om de transitie …

\emph{Purpose.} Tracheostomy is a critical, life-saving procedure, but complications often arise due to suboptimal tracheostomy tube fit. Customised tubes could mitigate these risks, yet their development hinges on precise tracheal morphometric data. This study aims to establish an automated workflow …

Tracheostomy is a life-saving procedure with complications often linked to suboptimal tracheostomy tube fit. Customised tubes could reduce these risks, but their development requires precise tracheal morphometric data. This study presents an automated workflow for extracting high-resolution tracheal …

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 …

Deze afstudeerscriptie onderzoekt de grondverplaatsingen die optreden tijdens de installatie van grondverdringende palen. Dergelijke verplaatsingen kunnen invloed hebben op de omgeving. In dit onderzoek is nagegaan hoe deze effecten vooraf kunnen worden voorspeld. Als vooronderzoek is een literatuurstudie …

Reseach on how to create realistic assets for a 360 degrees, 24k movie.

The obscurity of learning resources for AAA Hero Asset creation remains quite a big issue for beginner to intermediate 3D artists. While quite an abundance of educational material on various themes and software exists, they are rarely connected, and only a few offer structured guidance. This thesis addresses …

BranchOut explores how tree forks—usually treated as waste—can become valuable construction elements by leveraging their strong, continuous wood grain. Because their irregular shapes don’t fit standard building and CNC processes, the project developed new methods for harvesting, drying, and preparing …
