Artificial intelligence (AI) integration in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) operations has significantly advanced the field through increased autonomy. However, evaluating the critical aspects of these operations remains a challenge. In order to address this, the current study proposes the use of a combination …

This research reviews the current literature on the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the operation of autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). This paper examines three key aspects in developing the future of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) and UAV operations: (i) design, (ii) human factors, …

This study aims to check the performance of two distinct configurations system: a photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) system with an ice buffer storage tank figure [1] and a conventional PV system with an air heat exchanger on the back, figure [3]. The ice buffer storage tank is used to store excess heat from …

This paper presents data-driven insights from a case study that was carried out in an University EV charging plaza where EV charging demand is met with the combination of the University campus grid and installed solar capacity. First, we assessed the plaza dependency on the grid for meeting EV charging …

Er is in Nederland een duidelijke tendens naar het plaatsen van zonne-energiesystemen in de gebouwde omgeving, in plaats van grote installaties in het landelijk gebied. Onderdeel van deze ambitie is het maximaal benutten van de gehele gebouwschil voor energie-opwekking. In dit project is gericht op transparante …

Omdat netcongestie en gelijktijdigheid van het energiesysteem steeds grotere uitdagingen worden naarmate de adoptie van zonne- en windenergie toeneemt, zien we in toenemende mate dat de duurzame energie opweksystemen niet tot hun volledige potentieel benut worden. Dat geldt voor wind- en zonneparken …

Oftentimes these systems are only statically calibrated. However, wheelchair propulsion is dynamic by nature, requiring a dynamic validation process. The aim of the current project was to present a low-cost portable system for the dynamic metrological verification of wheelchair roller ergometers, based …

This research investigates power optimization in Thread mesh wireless networks through an algorithmic approach, aiming to reduce overall power consumption while maintaining reliable network performance. Transmission power serves as a key parameter for achieving energy efficiency, and the study focuses …

Laboratory experiments are important pedagogical tools in engineering courses. Restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic made it very difficult or impossible for laboratory classes to take place, resulting on a fast transition to simulation as an approach to guarantee the effectiveness of teaching. …
