One Step at a Time: Evaluation of a Step-By-Step Recipe Tool Designed for People with Dementia

Ruitenburg, Yvon (author), Pasman, G.J. (author), Brankaert, Rens (author)

Due to dementia, people lose the ability to deal with complex tasks such as cooking. We can support this group by designing new tools to keep them active and enhance their feeling of self-worth. Previous studies have focusedon step-by-step guidance for people withdementia using innovative technology, which is often too complicated to learn and...

Damping of ship-induced primary waves: Damping ship-induced primary waves in rivers by modifying groynes with the aim of increasing fauna habitat quality

Pasman, Rutger (author)

Ships in rivers create waves and these can have a negative impact on fish habitats along the river banks. A modelling study is carried out to investigate how these ship-induced waves can be damped in groyne fields by making structural modifications to the groynes. For this purpose, different types of openings (notches) are applied to the groynes...

Cost-effective fire protection of chemical plants against domino effects

Khakzad, N. (author), Landucci, Gabriele (author), Cozzani, Valerio (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Pasman, HJ (author)

The propagation of fire-induced domino effects in chemical plants largely depends on the primary fire scenario, on separation distances between the units, and on the presence of fire protection barriers. Passive and active safety barriers are widely employed to prevent or delay the initiation or propagation of domino effects. In the present...

Giving Form to Smart Objects: Exploring Intelligence as an Interaction Design Material

Rozendaal, M.C. (author), Ghajargar, Maliheh (author), Pasman, G.J. (author), Wiberg, Mikael (author)

Artificial intelligence (AI) has recently been highlighted as a design material in the HCI community. This acknowledgement is a call for interaction designers to consider intelligence as a resource for design. While this view is valid and well-grounded, it brings with it a need to better understand how intelligence as a design material can be...

Developing DIVE, a design-led futures technique for SMEs

Mejia Sarmiento, J.R. (author), Pasman, G.J. (author), Hultink, H.J. (author), Stappers, P.J. (author)

Futures techniques have long been used in large enterprises as designerly means to explore the future and guide innovation. In the automotive industry, for instance, the development of concept cars is a technique which has repeatedly proven its value. However, while big companies have broadly embraced futures techniques, small- and medium-sized...

Concept Cars as a design-led futures technique

Mejia Sarmiento, J.R. (author), Hultink, H.J. (author), Pasman, G.J. (author), Stappers, P.J. (author)

Innovation forces organizations to think about the future. The many techniques<br/>guiding these explorations are named futures studies, which are inquiries into images of the future and their surrounding elements. Although futures studies help organizations to change, their results are often difficult to interpret, and they frequently fail to...

Vision Concepts within the landscape of design research

Mejia Sarmiento, J.R. (author), Pasman, G.J. (author), Stappers, P.J. (author)

In the landscape of design research, several techniques of speculative design -or design about ideas- have been positioned, each with a different time<br/>frame. Design Fiction and Critical Design, for instance, emerged as making activities that explore the near and the speculative future, respectively. We previously defined<br/>Vision Concepts...

Fatigue Crack Growth in Solid Round Metallic Bars with a Shoulder Fillet

Pasman, D.J. (author)

Solid round bars with a shoulder fillet are frequently used in engineering structures because it facilitates a smooth transition in thickness. However, the presence of shoulder fillets is currently neglected in the prediction of fatigue crack growth in engineering practice. Since stress concentrating locations like a shoulder fillet can have a...

Applying experience reports in design education: Challenges and ideas

Pasman, G.J. (author), Romero Herrera, N.A. (author)

What if both design students and design tutors could have real-time insights into how students actually experience their design process rather than after-the-fact reflections? And what if these insights could be applied in ways that would contribute to more in-depth learning experiences? This paper addresses these questions in describing the...

Interactive Pong: Exploring Ways of User Inputs through Prototyping with Sensors

Liu, W. (author), Stappers, P.J. (author), Pasman, G.J. (author), Van der Helm, A.J.C. (author), Aprile, W.A. (author), Keller, I. (author)

This study aimed to explore ways of user inputs through designing interactive game controllers with different type of sensor. From building four experiential prototypes on Pong, we learned to drive design by focusing on interaction qualities, which determine the use of sensors. We found that the interaction qualities together as a set offer a...

From different angles: Exploring and applying the design potential of video

Pasman, G.J. (author)

Recent developments in both hardware and software have brought video within the scope of design students as a new visual design tool. Being more and more equipped with cameras, for example in their smartphones, and video editing programs on their computers, they are increasing using video to record their research activities or present their...

It remains a challenge with current state of the art technology to use BDI agents to control real-time, dynamic and complex environments. We report on our effort to connect the GOAL agent programming language to the real-time game UNREAL TOURNAMENT 2004. We focus in particular on the design of a suitable interface to manage agent-bot interaction...

Exploring Heuristic Action Selection in Agent Programming (extended abstract)

Hindriks, K.V. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author), Pasman, W. (author)

Rational agents programmed in agent programming languages derive their choice of action from their beliefs and goals. One of the main benefits of such programming languages is that they facilitate a highlevel and conceptually elegant specification of agent behaviour. Qualitative concepts alone, however, are not sufficient to specify that this...

Oxidation and combustion of fuel-rich N-butane-oxygen mixture in a standard 20-liter explosion vessel

Frolov, S.M. (author), Basevich, V.Y. (author), Smetanyuk, V.A. (author), Belyaev, A.A. (author), Pasman, H.J. (author)

Experiments on forced ignition of extremely fuel-rich n-butane-oxygen mixture with the equivalence ratio of 23 in the standard 20-liter spherical vessel at elevated initial pressure (4.1 bar) and temperature (500 K) reveal the nonmonotonic influence of the forced ignition delay time on the maximum explosion pressure and the maximum rate of...

Designing with precedents

Pasman, G. (author)

Every year designers are challenged to generate new and unique product forms. Often, the design and form of previous products constitutes a basis for the generation of new ones. What role then do existing products play in the generation and development of new product forms? How can this role be influenced by means of new design techniques? And...
