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 …

In this report you can read about the pear simulator developed for Riwo as part of my graduation assignment. It gives a description of the company and the end user. It also goes through the design phases, testing, and obstacles throughout the project. Finally it will go into detail about the automated …

This Powerpoint is part of the project Twomes. This deliverable contains a presentation about the heat balance model and inverse-grey-box analysis tools that support automated estimation of crucial parameters of buildings, installations and comfort needs in individual homes and utility buildings based …

Older technologies, such as violins and computers, differ from newer technologies (Internet search engines, robots, chatbots, etc.). Older technologies are primarily tools for achieving our own stated goals, while new technologies are often used by third parties, whereby we ourselves are sometimes used …

SME production companies producing high variety/low volume discrete products face challenging customer demands. These result in complex planning issues due to the tension between optimizing a low volume flow and optimizing efficiency parameters. Current planning and control systems do not support this …

This Powerpoint is part of the project Twomes. This deliverable contains a description of the digital twin, i.e. the inverse grey-box analysis model and of the tools used to analyze home heating data in order to derive building model parameters, installation model parameters and comfort need model parameters. This …

The case we describe is the journey of one company, a SME sheet metal manufacturing company in development of a Digital Twin in a production setting. We choose to highlight this specific case for several reasons: • A clear Industry 40 technology was the center piece of the project: The development of …

Fysieke inactiviteit is verantwoordelijk voor gemiddeld 1-3% van de nationale zorgkosten (World Health Organization, 2019). Volgens het Rijksinstituut voor Volksgezondheid en Milieu is te weinig bewegen een van de redenen dat de Nederlandse zorgkosten van 84 miljard in 2018 naar 174 miljard in 2040 zullen …

Vanwege de stijgende hoeveelheid nieuwe ontwikkelingen rondom het digitaliseren van machines, wil JB Systems een begin maken aan het implementeren van deze functionaliteiten in hun eigen simulaties. Dit rapport beschrijft het digitaliseringsproces van de DOBOT, een kleinschalige robotarm. Het doel van …

In this work, the concept of an Artificial Intelligence-based (AI) Digital Twin (DT) of an aircraft system is introduced, with the goal to improve the corresponding MRO Operations. More specifically, the current study aims to obtaining knowledge on the optimal placement of sensors in an ideal Power Electronics …
