Shipowners need to prepare for low-emission fuel alternatives to meet the IMO 2050 goals. This is a complex problem due to conflicting objectives and a high degree of uncertainty. To help navigate this problem, this paper investigates how methods that take uncertainty into account, like robust optimization …

The aim of this business case is to provide a comprehensive analysis and strategic guide focusing on refining the existing candidate sharing and management processes to enhance efficiency and effectiveness in the recruitment operations. Page Personnel Utrecht, as a leader in the recruitment industry, …

The built environment requires energy-flexible buildings to reduce energy peak loads and to maximize the use of (decentralized) renewable energy sources. The challenge is to arrive at smart control strategies that respond to the increasing variations in both the energy demand as well as the variable …

This thesis explores the development and integration of an automatic riggingtool as part of a web-based remote motion capture platform. The main objec-tive is to create a custom Auto Rigger using Python for Maya and seamlesslyincorporate it into the existing TPose platform.The research begins by investigating …

The age estimation of biological traces is one of the holy grails in forensic investigations. We developed a method for the age estimation of semen stains using fluorescence spectroscopy in conjunction with a stoichiometric ageing model. The model describes the degradation and generation rate of proteins …

This is a summary of this problem-solving research to gain a quick insight into all key findings and discussions. This research aims to answer the main question which is "How to reduce the order picking process time in the fulfillment center of Asyad Express in Muscat with 30% compared to the current …

Op 16 mei van 15:30 tot 17:30 uur presenteerden Bert Kooi en Sandra Bellekom het energie- optimalisatiemodel van de Hanzehogeschool Groningen. Dit model geeft inzicht in de optimale configuratie van een energiesysteem op systeemniveau, denk aan de energievoorziening voor een heel dorp of wijk. Het model …

Industry 4.0 has placed an emphasis on real-time decision making in the execution of systems, such as semiconductor manufacturing. This article will evaluate a scheduling methodology called Evolutionary Learning Based Simulation Optimization (ELBSO) using data generated by a Manufacturing Execution System …

In this paper, artificial intelligence tools are implemented in order to predict trajectory positions, as well as channel performance of an optical wireless communications link. Case studies for industrial scenarios are considered to this aim. In a first stage, system parameters are optimized using a …

The nonlinearity induced by light-emitting diodes in visible light communication (VLC) systems presents a challenge to the parametrization of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). The goal of the multi-objective optimization problem presented in this study is to maximize the transmitted …
