In the last decades there has been a significant increase of traffic demand in urban areas due to the development of the economy and the increase of population. The increase in traffic demand leads to a more congested road network. Congestion causes unwanted delays, resulting in higher travel costs, noise, and pollution. Popular methods to...

Nowadays, traffic congestion on highways is still an increasing problem, in the Netherlands and worldwide. Hence, there is an increasing societal demand for innovative solutions for this problem. Preferably, these solutions also contribute to the reduction of fuel consumption (and hence emissions) and higher traffic safety. This has raised the...

A teleoperation system consists of an operator interface (master) controlling a slave system in a remote virtual environment. When the slave’s environmental forces are fed back to the operator, this is called haptic force-feedback. An impedance-type master device ideally has a large range of stable achievable impedances, i.e. a small free space...

This investigation highlights the effect of surface modification on polyimide by atmospheric pressure plasma treatment with different exposure time. Surface modification of polymer by plasma treatment essentially creates physical and chemical changes such as cross-linking and formation of free radicals. It also forms oxygen functionalization in...

Background The aim of this study was to examine the influence of training under direct vision prior to training with indirect vision on the learning curve of the laparoscopic suture task. Methods Novices were randomized in two groups. Group 1 performed three suturing tasks in a transparent laparoscopic box trainer under direct vision followed by...

Background The amount of scientific literature available is often overwhelming, making it difficult for researchers to have a good overview of the literature and to see relations between different developments. Visualisation techniques based on bibliometric data are helpful in obtaining an overview of the literature on complex research topics,...

Box trainers equipped with sensors may help in acquiring objective information about a trainee's performance while performing training tasks with real instruments. The main aim of this study is to investigate the added value of force parameters with respect to commonly used motion and time parameters such as path length, motion volume, and task...

This study was conducted to adapt and validate a patient safety (PS) framework for minimally invasive surgery (MIS) as a first step in understanding the clinical relevance of various PS risk factors in MIS. Eight patient safety risk factor domains were identified using frameworks from a systems approach to patient safety. A questionnaire was...

Various steerable instruments with flexible distal tip have been developed for laparoscopic surgery. The problem of steering such instruments, however, remains a challenge, because no study investigated which control method is the most suitable. This study was designed to examine whether thumb (joystick) or wrist control method is designated for...

Titanium and its alloys are usually bonded together using a high temperature resistant polyimide or epoxy adhesives. Such adhesives can withstand temperatures from 200°C to300°C. Earlier research work indicates that Surface modification of titanium with mechanical treatment and atmospheric pressure plasma treatment techniques leads to improved...

Musculoskeletal shoulder models have been used for many different applications. Up till now, these models have not been suited to operate in a real-time environment. This study uses the most cited and used musculoskeletal shoulder model in the field, Delft and Elbow and Shoulder Model (DESM), and changes the structure to make the model quicker....

It is generally assumed that safety of tissue manipulations during (laparoscopic) surgery is related to the magnitude of force that is exerted on the tissue. To provide trainees with performance feedback about tissuehandling skills, it is essential to define objective criteria for judging the safety of applied forces. To be of clinical relevance...
