Smulders, M. (author), van Dijk, L.N.M. (author), Song, Y. (author), Vink, P. (author), Huysmans, T. (author)When designing wearables that interface with the human head, face and neck, designers and engineers consider human senses, ergonomics and comfort. A dense 3D pressure discomfort threshold map could be helpful, but does not exist yet. Differences in pressure discomfort threshold for areas of the head, neck and face were recorded, to create a 3D...journal article 2023

Verkuyl, Annechien (author), te Brake, Guido (author), van Scheijndel, Peter (author), Vledder, G. (author), Vink, P. (author)The aviation industry needs to reduce CO2 emissions. Turboprop aircrafts consume 10-60% less fuel compared to regional jets. In addition, electric propeller aircrafts are now in development, which can be CO2 neutral. However, in turboprop aircrafts the noise level is high and the space is limited. For flight attendants that work long hours in...journal article 2023

Roelofsen, C.P.G. (author), Vink, P. (author)For the sake of energy and cost savings, it is sometimes necessary to maintain the indoor climate in a room at conditions that deviate from optimal thermal comfort. More important than thermal sensation is how a change in conditions will affect the thermal acceptability of a space and whether the percentage of people who are (dis)satisfied with...journal article 2023

Vledder, G. (author), Kılıç, H. (author), Song, Y. (author), Vink, P. (author)High-speed rail might be a solution to reduce energy usage and carbon emissions as rail transport consumes less energy than airplanes. However, in choosing a transport system, time is an important factor in making many passengers choose air travel. This paper studies the reasons why passengers choose a transport mode, and compares the comfort of...journal article 2023

Kılıç, H. (author), Vledder, G. (author), Yao, X. (author), Elkhuizen, W.S. (author), Song, Y. (author), Vink, P. (author)BACKGROUND: A valid distribution of key anthropometric parameters among participants is often a perquisite of ergonomics research. OBJECTIVE: In this paper, we investigated the accuracy of self-reported stature and body mass of the population in the Netherlands. METHODS: Data from 4 experiments was synthesized where in each experiment,...journal article 2023

Yao, X. (author), Yang, Y. (author), Vledder, G. (author), Xu, J. (author), Song, Y. (author), Vink, P. (author)Wearables are used to recognize human activities in various applications. However, there is limited evidence on the comfort feelings in using wearables, which is crucial for the adoption and long-term engagement of users in those applications. In this paper, we propose the concept of comfort wearables in the context of in-flight posture...journal article 2023

Yao, X. (author), Ping, Y. (author), Song, Y. (author), Vink, P. (author)Passengers' comfort experience during flights is important in choosing their flights. The focus of this study is passengers’ perceived comfort in different climbing angles during ascent. Twenty-six participants were invited to experience three inclination angles including 3°, 14° and 18° in a Boeing 737 cabin. The angle of 3° was used to...journal article 2023

Breitschaft, Stefan Josef (author), Heijboer, Stefan (author), Shor, Daniel (author), Tempelman, E. (author), Vink, P. (author), Carbon, Claus Christian (author)After decades of research and development, haptic feedback is increasingly appearing in consumer products. While the prevalence of haptic feedback is increasing, the integration rarely offers increased fidelity to previous generations. We argue this is because of the tremendous complexity of successful haptic design engineering, but...review 2022

(author)The aviation industry is constantly making compromises when designing comfortable airplane cabins. Providing passengers with a pleasant acoustic environment without adding weight to the cabin structure is a field of tension that challenges cabin interior designers. The aim of this study was to investigate whether noise levels affect the comfort...journal article 2022

Vink, J.N.A. (author)Viruses are, as we have seen over the past year, very proficient at invading a host and subsequently reproducing rapidly. Our adaptive immune system, after a first encounter with a virus, can store information about the outside protein shell and use this information to destroy the virus in later encounters. Bacteria have an adaptive immune...doctoral thesis 2021
