(author)Background: Preterm neonates are extensively monitored to require strict oxygen target attainment for optimal outcomes. In daily practice, detailed oxygenation data are hardly used and crucial patterns may be missed due to the snapshot presentations and subjective observations. This study aimed to develop a web-based dashboard with both...journal article 2024

Hà, T.L. (author), Bastiaanssen, W.G.M. (author), Simons, Gijs W. H. (author), Poortinga, Ate (author)Hydrological ecosystem services (HESS) describe the benefits of water for multiple purposes with an emphasis on environmental values. The value of HESS is often not realized because primary benefits (e.g., food production, water withdrawals) get the most attention. Secondary benefits such as water storage, purification or midday temperature...journal article 2023

Van der Grift, R.C. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Simons, D.G. (author)Accurate modelling of aircraft noise in different weather conditions is crucial for the reliability of noise predictions and their application worldwide. In best-practice aircraft noise models, such as Doc.29, the change in expected sound level on the ground due to changing atmosphere is modelled with a simplified propagation calculation. The...conference paper 2023

Simonse, LWL (author), Simons, Dasha (author), Skalska, Z. (author)In order to humanize forecasting, communities have been proposed to activate and enlarge a collective ability of foresight. To better understand how communities relate to collective foresight abilities, this article untangles its critical modes, roles and social media involved. Based on a fine-grained analysis of 10 community practices, we...journal article 2023

Bai, Q. (author), Mestdagh, S.M.F. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Simons, D.G. (author)To facilitate the conservation of seafloor habitats and planning of offshore activities, there is a growing need for mapping marine benthos in an effective and efficient way. Acoustic data acquired by multi-beam echosounders (MBES) have been extensively used for large-scale and high-resolution seafloor characterization. A deeper understanding of...journal article 2023

Simons, L.P.A. (author)Four areas make up 75% of our healthcare costs: cardio-, onco-, neuro- and metabolic diseases. These are largely preventable, even reversible. Instead, they are currently often ‘managed’ and made chronic, not cured. This is too costly. Research is showing new opportunities for enhancing our body’s self-repair in a matter of hours or days. Our...journal article 2023

Vieira, A.E. (author), von den Hoff, B. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Simons, D.G. (author)The contribution of the engine and the airframe to the total noise generated by an aircraft varies with the operating conditions. Semi-empirical models are able to account for such variations but require detailed engine and airframe data as input that is not readily available for most aircraft types and operations. This hinders the validation of...journal article 2022

von den Hoff, B. (author), Simons, D.G. (author), Snellen, M. (author)Full-scale propeller measurements are useful to study the total noise contribution of a propeller-driven aircraft, including installation effects. Full-scale measurements under operational conditions also provide an accurate validation opportunity for propeller noise prediction models. These studies are, therefore, necessary to quantify and...conference paper 2022

Merino Martinez, R. (author), Pieren, Reto (author), Schäffer, Beat (author), Simons, D.G. (author)Noise annoyance caused by wind turbines is a critical issue for the societal acceptance of wind energy. Wind turbine noise exposure is typically assessed using conventional time–averaged metrics, however, the literature suggests that these metrics do not fully capture the sound properties responsible for the perceived noise annoyance. Therefore,...conference paper 2022
