van Marrewijk, A.H. (author), van der Steen, Hans (author)Construction work is associated with high risks of fatalities. Effective, deep and lasting learning from incidents is important for the safety of employees, but not well developed in the construction sector. We studied the organizational processes after a fatality through an auto-ethnographic field work study and found three distinct, but...journal article 2024

Sapp, Amanda C. (author), Nane, G.F. (author), Amaya, Mirna P. (author), Niyonzima, Eugène (author), Hategekimana, Jean Paul (author), VanSickle, John J. (author), Gordon, Ronald M. (author), Havelaar, Arie H. (author)BACKGROUND: The Girinka program in Rwanda has contributed to an increase in milk production, as well as to reduced malnutrition and increased incomes. But dairy products can be hazardous to health, potentially transmitting diseases such as bovine brucellosis, tuberculosis, and cause diarrhea. We analyzed the burden of foodborne disease due to...journal article 2023

Tyagi, Alok (author), Tripathi, Rajesh (author), Bouarfa, S. (author)In the last decade, the aircraft maintenance industry has experienced a paradigm shift in safety management. This is primarily due to the implementation of Safety Management Systems (SMS) in its business practices. The critical facet of such SMS recognizes hazards ahead of time. This review aims to undertake scholarly research to enable the...review 2023

Rothkrantz, L.J.M. (author)The grow of urban environments caused many problems in traffic networks. On the roads in and around an urban environment many traffic incidents happen all the time, especially during rush hours or bad weather conditions. To minimize the negative impacts, an incident scene has to be cleared as soon as possible. Additional delay has been caused by...conference paper 2023

Li, Erlei (author), Shen, Haopeng (author), Wang, L. (author), Wang, Geoff (author), Zhou, Zongyan (author)The shape variation of the laser beam is evidently observed in the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process because of changes in laser incidence angle and misalignment between the build plate and the laser focus plane. This issue is particularly relevant in large-scale LPBF systems where the laser beam needs to scan a large build area. However...journal article 2023

(author), Schlösser, Tom P.C. (author)Introduction: To date the aetiology of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is still not completely understood. There are mechanical theories that suggest symptomatic FAI is linked to sagittal pelvic morphology and spinopelvic-femoral dynamics. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relation of sagittal pelvic morphology and orientation to...journal article 2023

Kaufhold, Marc-André (author), reuter, Christian (author), Comes, M. (author), Mirbabaie, Milad (author), Stieglitz, Stefan (author)Information and communication technologies (ICT), including artificial intelligence, internet of things, and mobile applications, can be utilized to tackle important societal challenges, such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. While they may increase societal resilience, their design, functionality, and underlying infrastructures must be...conference paper 2021

Bos, Kelly (author), Dongelmans, Dave A. (author), Groeneweg, J. (author), Legemate, Dink A. (author), Leistikow, Ian P. (author), Van Der Laan, Maarten J. (author)Background The recurrence of sentinel events (SEs) is a persistent problem worldwide, despite repeated analyses and recommendations formulated to prevent recurrence. Research suggests this is partly attributable to the quality of the recommendations, and determining if a recommendation will be effective is not yet covered by an adequate...journal article 2021

Varotto, Silvia F. (author), Jansen, Reinier (author), Bijleveld, Frits (author), van Nes, C.N. (author)Automatic incident detection (AID) systems and variable speed limits (VSLs) can reduce crash probability and traffic congestion. Studies based on loop detector data have shown that AID systems decrease the variation in speeds between drivers. Despite the impact on driver behaviour characteristics, most mathematical models evaluating the...journal article 2021

Varotto, Silvia F. (author), Jansen, Reinier (author), Bijleveld, Frits (author), van Nes, C.N. (author)Traffic congestion and crash rates can be reduced by introducing variable speed limits (VSLs) and automatic incident detection (AID) systems. Previous findings based on loop detector measurements have revealed that drivers reduce their speeds while approaching traffic congestion when the AID system is active. Notwithstanding these behavioural...journal article 2021

Noroozian, A. (author)Hosting providers are theoretically in a key position to combat cybercrime as they are often the entities renting out the resources that end up being abused by miscreants. Yet, notwithstanding hosting providers' current security measures to combat abuse, their responses vary widely. In many cases the response is ineffective, as empirical...doctoral thesis 2020

Nepal, Pramod (author), Korevaar, Marc (author), Ziar, H. (author), Isabella, O. (author), Zeman, M. (author)The deposition of dust, soil, and microfibers resulting from the surroundings, as well as the growth of minute pollens like moss and fungi, contributes toward photovoltaic (PV) module soiling. Soiling is a widely recognized factor that significantly reduces the power production by acting as a barrier for effective light absorption by the...journal article 2019

Burggraaf, J.M. (author), Groeneweg, J. (author), Sillem, S. (author), van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)The field of safety and incident prevention is becoming more and more data based. Data can help support decision making for a more productive and safer work environment, but only if the data can be, is and should be trusted. Especially with the advance of more data collection of varying quality, checking and judging the data is an...journal article 2019

Norway has a nationwide physician manned air ambulance service servicing a country with large geographical variations in population density and incident frequencies. The aim of the study was to compare optimal air ambulance base locations using both...journal article 2018

Molijn, R.A. (author), Iannini, L. (author), Lopez Dekker, F.J. (author), Magalhães, Paulo S.G. (author), Hanssen, R.F. (author)Current space-based SAR offers unique opportunities to classify vegetation types and to monitor vegetation growth due to its frequent acquisitions and its sensitivity to vegetation geometry. However, SAR signals also experience frequent temporal fluctuations caused by precipitation events, complicating the mapping and monitoring of vegetation....journal article 2018

Meeuwsen, F.C. (author), Guédon, A.C.P. (author), Klein, J. (author), van der Elst, Maarten (author), Dankelman, J. (author), van den Dobbelsteen, J.J. (author)Introduction: Electrosurgery is used in 80% of surgical procedures. The technique allows surgeons to skilfully dissect tissues and achieve haemostasis. Since improper use of electrosurgery can lead to serious adverse events, training is required to potentially reduce the number and severity of these events. In this study we evaluate education...journal article 2018

Snelder, M. (author), Wesseling, B. (author), van Arem, B. (author), Hertogh, M.J.C.M. (author)When infrastructures projects are evaluated, it is not only important to evaluate them with models that represent the average daily situation, but also to evaluate them in case of irregular situations like incidents. This becomes especially relevant when various project alternatives are expected to show significantly different scores in case...journal article 2017

Wang, Z. (author), Steenbruggen, John (author), Zlatanova, S. (author)This paper investigates the integration of traffic information (TI) into the routing in the presence of moving obstacles. When traffic accidents occur, the incidents could generate different kinds of hazards (e.g., toxic plumes), which make certain parts of the road network inaccessible. On the other hand, the first responders, who are...journal article 2017

Resel, Roland (author), Bainschab, Markus (author), Pichler, Alexander (author), Dingemans, T.J. (author), Simbrunner, Clemens (author), Stangl, Julian (author), Salzmann, Ingo (author)Dynamical scattering effects are observed in grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction experiments using an organic thin film of 2,2′:6′,2′′-ternaphthalene grown on oxidized silicon as substrate. Here, a splitting of all Bragg peaks in the out-of-plane direction (z-direction) has been observed, the magnitude of which depends both on the incidence...journal article 2016
