Background. Between 20% and 35% of registered youth players disengage from amateur football clubs within any given season, most without formally withdrawing. Volunteer coaches, who average four to six hours per week on coaching activity, identify individual player feedback as the task they most frequently …

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 …

Within the Cool Neighbourhoods project, heat stress is assessed using the Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET), a thermal comfort indicator that combines meteorological conditions with spatial and environmental variables. PET-based heat stress maps provide insight into spatial differences in thermal …

This study evaluated the feasibility of a buoyant V-block closure joint for application within the Fraser River Tunnel Project and compared its performance against alternative closure joint concepts. The results demonstrate that the buoyant V-block is a technically feasible closure joint solution under …

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 …

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, …

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: …

This graduation report is a comparison of settlement mitigation techniques for embankments built on soft ground in the Netherlands. The research is focused on the soft deltaic soil conditions in the Netherlands, where clay, peat, and organic clay layers can cause high settlements, slow consolidation, …

With a growing world population and simultaneously degrading ecosystems due to unsustainable agricultural practices, and due to a limited available space and resources, sustainable food sources are increasing in demand. Seaweed has emerged as a promising nutritious and protein rich alternative of low …

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 …
