This thesis focuses on optimising the emptying process of water storage facilities in urban areas, and was conducted during my graduate internship at Waterfeit Adviseurs. The study is based on the need to improve the efficiency of the system, as current systems frequently lead to floods and ineffective …

In the final stage of people’s life, family caregivers spend an average of 26 hours a week providing informal care at home. While this care can be rewarding, it can also lead to overburdening and increase the need for support. Despite the efforts of healthcare providers, many family caregivers feel that …

Although the attention for neurodiversity in human resource management (HRM) is growing, neurodivergent individuals are still primarily supported from a deficit-oriented paradigm, which points towards individuals' deviation from neurotypical norms. Following the HRM process model, our study explored …

Underutilised charging stations can be a bottleneck in the swift transition to electric mobility. This study is the first to research cooperative behaviour at public charging stations as a way to address improved usage of public charging stations. It does so by viewing public charging stations as a common-pool …

Many ARM Cortex-M-based microcontrollers include tracing features which allow monitoring hardware events (e.g. exceptions occurring, a specific instruction being executed or a specific address range being accessed by the CPU). Tracing enables non-intrusive insight into software execution (i.e. software …
