How can prospective LCA be streamlined in a way that its practical application in research and technology development increases?

The invention of neural networks marks a critical milestone in the pursuit of true artificial intelligence. Despite their impressive performance on various tasks, these networks face limitations in learning efficiently as they are often trained from scratch.

The aim is to discover where differently shaped metal nanoparticles distributes in Danio rerio, linking the distribution with genomic responses and so come up with a Mode of Action.

How can ecosystem services within river catchments be quantified in spatial and temporal explicit way?

This thesis presents the results of a study on the interfaces of insulating oxides with and without the insertion of a magnetic layer.

Some examples of research questions include: What framework of circular strategies should local practitioners use? How should practitioners organize their monitoring of the circular economy activities in the region of interest? What are the main products that have the most circular potential in the…

What are the life-cycle environmental impacts and risks to human health and ecosystems of a III-V/Si PV system? How can these be expected to change when the system is deployed at industrial scale? What are the most favourable recycling scenarios?

De meeste Learning My Way-modules hebben een vergelijkbare structuur: voorbereiding, seminar, integratie.

If mankind wants to survive into the 22nd century, we will need to change the way we live drastically. The human impact on our planet is everywhere, we are changing the atmosphere, the oceans and the land, leading to global warming, climate change, loss of biodiversity and pervasive pollution. There…

A remarkable population of short period transiting rocky exoplanets with equilibrium temperatures on the order of 2,000 K has recently been discovered.

The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) reduces vehicle emissions to combat climate change. EVs raise concerns regarding the production of lithium-ion batteries and related emissions; while batteries can also provide energy storage services for the electricity system.

This thesis investigates the evolution and fate of gaseous exoplanets, which are continuously shaped by stellar activity across both short and long timescales.

De Learning My Way-methodologie is afgelopen 10 jaar ontwikkeld en geperfectioneerd. Begonnen in experimentele vorm in het FSW Honours College, is LMW al snel door verschillende instellingen opgepakt in opleidingen en voor HRM-doeleinden.

Wat is de invloed van de Internationale Verdragen ICCPR en ICESCR? Hoe kan hun toekomstige rol in de bescherming van de mensenrechten verder worden verbeterd? Dit is een kleine greep uit de vragen die worden gesteld tijdens de conferentie ter ere van de 50ste verjaardag van het ICCPR en ICESCR.

The objective of this study is to better understand the distribution of microplastics in the environment. More specifically, we will quantify the abundance and distribution of microplastics on beaches.

Traditionally, vaccines are administered intramuscularly using conventional hypodermic needles, which cause pain and distress. Microneedles are very short needles (smaller than 1 mm) that are practically invisible to the naked eye.

Mining time series is a machine learning subfield that focuses on a particular data structure, where variables are measured over (short or long) periods of time.

Studievoorlichting

This PhD thesis concerns the topic of arithmetic geometry. We address three different questions and each of the questions in some way is about counting how big some set is or can be.

Learning My Way wordt gebruikt in een breed scala aan onderwijscontexten. Daarbij wordt altijd een blended learning en flipped classroom-benadering toegepast om optimale integratie van persoonlijke inzichten in dagelijks leven en gedrag mogelijk te maken.
