This paper analyses the effect of two new developments: electrification and ‘free floating’ car sharing and their impact on public space. Contrary to station based shared cars, free floating cars do not have dedicated parking or charging stations. They therefore park at public parking spots and utilize …

With the rise of the number of electric vehicles, the installment of public charging infrastructure is becoming more prominent. In urban areas in which EV users rely on on-street parking facilities, the demand for public charging stations is high. Cities take on the role of implementing public charging …

Het aantonen of corrosie gedetecteerd kan worden in de omtrek richting van pijpleidingen. Er wordt gebruik gemaakt van zeer dispersieve akoestische plaatgolven genaamd Lamb waves. Als transducers worden er Elektro-Magnetische Akoestische Transducers gebruikt. Corrosion inside pipelines caused by salt …

The problem addressed in this report is to verify the possibility of using an optical sensor in the SaxShirt in order to extract the heart rate. There are specifically three questions that we try to address. 1) How is it possible to extract heart rate (BPM) from the optical sensor? 2) Is it possible …

This report outlines the origin of aberrations in a Low Energy Electron Microscope (LEEM) and how to measure and automatically correct them. The aberrations in a LEEM are mainly caused by the cathode objective lens and are a limiting factor for the achievable resolution. To optimise the resolution of …

A new gravitation wave observatory is being built in Japan. This facility is a big Michelson interferometer where the mirrors and sensors will be made cryogenic down to 4 K. The problem is that: the heat cannot be transported out of the mirror by its surroundings because the whole system is in an ultra-high …
