A glimpse into the universe with superconducting electronics
A mine of information in waste data
It is not uncommon for tools to be developed for research projects, but the tool to emerge from REPAiR (REsource Management in Peri-urban Areas) is one to be particularly proud of. And this is not only in the eyes of TU Delft researchers Alexander Wandl and Arjan van Timmeren. “Local and regional authorities in both Europe and the United States can't wait to start using it.”
Building the foundations of a quantum computer
When you set foot in the lab, you instantly feel that something special is happening here. The room houses a long desk with monitors showing graphs, but most of the space is taken up by two complicated-looking machines, surrounded by fences that keep guests at a safe distance.
Acoustic control of your environment
Imagine this: you can control the acoustics of your environment, no matter the size and shape of the space around you, your access to electricity, and the type of sound you’d like to control. That is what the ADAM project prototype offers. With the use of mathematical models and 3D printing, amongst others, ADAM allows the creation of tailor made sound absorbers.
How not to waste energy on 5G
From an energy point of view, humanity’s insatiable hunger for mobile data is unsustainable, unless you’re willing to break a few long-held believes in the field of wireless communication. Professor Earl McCune is geared up to do just that.
Optimization methods: formulate the problem first, then find the design solutions
Optimization methods are increasingly popular in architecture, but they are not always used correctly. Formulate what the optimization problem is first and only then look at how to solve it, says Ding Yang. He developed a Multi-Objective and Multi-Disciplinary Optimization (MOMDO) method that highlights the reformulation of optimization problems.
Using persuasive games to improve work atmosphere
Cultural diversity and a mixture of people with different specialisations in a workplace can boost creativity and effectiveness. It can also lead to misunderstandings, stereotyping and misconception. TU Delft researcher Rens Kortmann studies what persuasive games can do to change that.
From creative chaos to interstellar spaceship
“In light of our insatiable appetite for exploration, it is inevitable that the human species will ultimately travel outside of the known solar system. It is the next step in human evolution.” These are the words of Angelo Vermeulen, doctoral candidate in the Systems Engineering section of the Faculty of TPM, and founder of the TU Delft Starship Team (DSTART).
