BachelorThesis

Methods for reducing error in approximations of the Rayleigh integral

This is the uncompiled version of my Bachelor Thesis at the TUDelft. (The compiled version can be viewed here as the file Approximating_Rayleigh_Integrals_Joris_Perrenet.pdf and in the repository)

Also, a huge thanks to VimTeX for making it so easy to compile my tex files and interacting with zathura enabling hot reload. It allowed me to edit my thesis in NeoVim whilst only needing to save the file in order to see the changes in my pdf-viewer.

Some notes:

  1. To compile my thesis I used the compiler latexmk (it completely compiles without any errors and warnings) after installing texlive-most on Arch Linux.
  2. The TUD-report2020.cls and codestyle.sty in the report folder can also be used as templates for other people at the TUDelft (these are not the standard files, I edited them a lot).
  3. Not all used packages are in Approximating_Rayleigh_Integrals_Joris_Perrenet.pdf, some are in TUD-report2020.cls as it was needed to ensure that everything was loaded in the correct order.
  4. The lemmas and theorems used in appendix B of my thesis are also listed explicitely in the lemmas folder.
  5. All the used .tikz files are in report/pictures.
  6. To export .svg files I used the following command: 
    inkscape -D -z --file=<FILENAME.svg> --export-pdf=<FILENAME.pdf> --export-latex

    I highly recommend using .svg (and .tikz) files as they are vector files and extremely lightweight, it allowed my 73-paged thesis to be ~1.13 MB.
