DEME Group, a leader in offshore energy and marine infrastructure, seeks to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of cable burial operations for offshore wind farms through the development of a user-friendly trencher mobility model. This research addresses the limitations of existing models and provides …

In this research, acrylate crosslinked PEG-b-PS polymersomes were synthesized and extensively tested. Polymersomes are nanovesicles that are self-assembled from amphiphilic block copolymers. Like liposomes, they can contain aqueous solutions in the core, which makes them interesting in the field of nanomedicine. …

This thesis project presents a novel approach for detecting corrosion using drone-based surveillance systems by modifying the YOLOv5 object detection model and deploying it to a VOXL 2 flight controller for real-time image processing. The central goal is to enhance the model's accuracy in detecting corrosion …

For almost 25 years, the goal of the RoboCup has been to build soccer robots capable of winning against the FIFA World Champion of 2050. To foster the participation of the next generation of roboticists, the RoboCupJunior competition takes place in parallel and provides a similar challenge of appropriate …

We need educators to be constantly updating their skills and knowledge, and evidenced-informed practice is central to this; yet it is far from universal in our schools. Kristin Vanlommel and Chris Brown draw on their international research to show how EIP can be achieved based on three core principles. With …

At the age of a failing economic system and undeniable evidence of the effects humankind has had over the planet, it is necessary to look for alternatives to the way we live locally. This article explores the use of designing narratives and metanarratives to co-create imaginaries serving as the needed …

This study evaluated the performance of anaerobic co-digestion of cow manure (CM) and sheep manure (SM) in both batch and continuous digesters at 37 °C. Synergistic effects of co-digesting CM and SM at varying volatile solids (VS) ratios (1:0, 0:1, 3:1, 1:1, 1:3) were observed in the batch experiment, …

Objective: The Tilburg Frailty Indicator (TFI) is a self-report user-friendly questionnaire for assessing multidimensional frailty among community-dwelling older people. The main aim of this study is to re-evaluate the validity of the TFI, both cross-sectionally and longitudinally, focusing on the predictive …

The project consists of a regional strategy for the Bajo Guadiana River Valley, in the southern border in between Portugal and Spain. Developed in three steps: Landscape Regeneration, Sustainable Local Production, Green-Blue Accessibility. Analyzing the area, it is clear that the current use of the …

Social enterprises and government share the ultimate goal of solving societal problems, which provides a lot of potential for collaboration between the two parties. While the local government level is the most relevant for social enterprises, little research has been done on the relationship between …
