Suddle, S.I. (author)Multiple land use brings with it several safety risks when buildings are developed above or nearby transport routes of hazardous materials. To reduce these risks several measures can be implemented in multiple land-use projects for both the construction and the exploitation stage. These measures will reduce either the probability and/or the...journal article 2006

Lokhorst, G.J.C. (author)We present axiomatizations of the deontic fragment of Anderson's relevant deontic logic (the logic of obligation and related concepts) and the eubouliatic fragment of Anderson's eubouliatic logic (the logic of prudence, safety, risk, and related concepts).journal article 2008

Tuijthof, G.J.M. (author), Horeman, T. (author), Schafroth, M.U. (author), Blankevoort, L. (author), Kerkhoffs, G.M.M.J. (author)Purpose To facilitate effective learning, feedback on performance during arthroscopic training is essential. Less attention has been paid to feedback on monitoring safe handling of delicate tissues such as meniscus. The goal is to measure in vitro probing forces of menisci and compare them with a theoretical maximum probing force (TMPF). Method...journal article 2010

Rodrigues, S.P. (author), Wever, A.M. (author), Denkelman, J. (author), Jansen, F.W. (author)Background This study aimed to identify the frequency of events in the different patient safety risk domains during minimally invasive surgery (MIS) and conventional surgery (CS). Methods A convenience sample of gynecologic MIS and CS was observed. Events were observed and categorized into one of the predefined patient safety risk domains....journal article 2011

Xiao, F. (author), Ligteringen, H. (author), Van Gulijk, C. (author), Ale, B.J.M. (author)Collisions are an important factor in probabilistic risk modeling of waterway infrastructures. Especially in the design of bridges and terminals, the probability of ship collision is important. Researchers are looking for simulations that mimic ship behavior and estimate accident probabilities rather than using probabilistic accident models. AIS...journal article 2012

Steenbergen, R.D.J.M. (author), De Boer, A. (author), Van der Veen, C. (author)The assessment of the structural safety of existing bridges and viaducts becomes increasingly important in many countries due to the age of the structures and an increase in traffic loads. Many structures need to be reassessed in order to find out whether the safety requirements are met. Most existing standards, however, are developed for the...journal article 2012

Van Dijk, T. (author)Flying through clouds of ash, or flying on an damaged engine or a broken rudder; nothing fazes TU Delft pilots Hans Mulder and Alexander in ‘t Veld. These fearless pilots emulate aircraft incidents in the TU Delft Cessna Citation, thereby contributing to safer aviation.journal article 2015

(author), Van den Dobbelsteen, J.J. (author)Background Unavailability of instruments is recognised to cause delays and stress in the operating room, which can lead to additional risks for the patients. The aim was to provide an overview of the hazards in the entire delivery process of surgical instruments and to provide insight into how Information Technology (IT) could support this...journal article 2015

Stoop, J.A.A.M. (author)Safety is frequently addressed as an emergent property of complex and dynamic systems. This contribution advocates the validity and importance of incorporating intrinsic technological hazards and systemic interrelations from a multi-actor perspective in the early phases of design and development. This perspective creates inherent properties in...journal article 2016

Araghi, Y. (author), van Wee, G.P. (author), Kroesen, M. (author)Historic vehicles (HVs) are the heritage of road transport that have surprisingly received little attention in the academic literature. This study presents an overview of the literature on HVs, focusing on the three topics that dominate the policy debate on transport: environmental, safety and congestion impacts. We observed that polluting...journal article 2017

Kermisch, C.F.N. (author), Taebi, B. (author)In this paper we suggest considering sustainability as a moral framework based on social justice, which can be used to evaluate technological choices. In order to make sustainability applicable to discussions of nuclear energy production and waste management, we focus on three key ethical questions, namely: (i) what should be sustained; (ii) why...journal article 2017

Koryakovskiy, I. (author), Vallery, H. (author), Babuska, R. (author), Caarls, W. (author)Reinforcement learning techniques enable robots to deal with their own dynamics and with unknown environments without using explicit models or preprogrammed behaviors. However, reinforcement learning relies on intrinsically risky exploration, which is often damaging for physical systems. In the case of the bipedal walking robot Leo, which is...journal article 2017

Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author)This paper argues that a new paradigm is needed in the manufacturing industry to further substantially advance safety as part of the industry 4.0 concept. The different domains that need to be focused upon are Cluster-thinking and cooperation, High transparency and efficient inspections, Education and training, Security integration, and...journal article 2017

(author)Low voltage dc distribution grids face issues associated with arc faults, aggravated by the absence of current zero crossing. The focus of this paper is to comprehensively develop a method of series arc fault detection at the load side power electronics, based on the electrode dependent initial voltage drop occurring at the arc initiation....journal article 2018

Salma, V. (author), Friedl, F. (author), Schmehl, R. (author)Airborne wind energy systems use tethered flying devices to harvest wind energy beyond the height range accessible to tower-based wind turbines. Current commercial prototypes have reached power ratings of up to several hundred kilowatts, and companies are aiming at long-term operation in relevant environments. As consequence, system...journal article 2019

de Gelder, E. (author), Paardekooper, Jan Pieter (author), Op den Camp, Olaf (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)Objective: The amount of collected field data from naturalistic driving studies is quickly increasing. The data are used for, among others, developing automated driving technologies (such as crash avoidance systems), studying driver interaction with such technologies, and gaining insights into the variety of scenarios in real-world traffic....journal article 2019

Metz, I.C. (author), Ellerbroek, Joost (author), Mühlhausen, Thorsten (author), Kügler, Dirk (author), Hoekstra, J.M. (author)Bird strike prevention in civil aviation has traditionally focused on the airport perimeter. Since the risk of especially damaging bird strikes outside the airport boundaries is rising, this paper investigates the safety potential of operational bird strike prevention involving pilots and controllers. In such a concept, controllers would be...journal article 2021

Metz, I.C. (author), Ellerbroek, Joost (author), Mühlhausen, Thorsten (author), Kügler, Dirk (author), Kern, Stefan (author), Hoekstra, J.M. (author)Involving air traffic controllers and pilots into the bird strike prevention process is considered an essential step to increase aviation and avian safety. Prior to implementing operational measures such as real-time warning systems, it is vital to evaluate their feasibility. This paper studies the efficacy of a bird strike advisory system for...journal article 2021

Zhigerbayeva, Guldana (author), Yang, M. (author)Various methods have been developed to ensure the safe transportation of hazardous materials (HazMat). These methods span from conventional statistical methods to modern risk management approaches. An essential question is how to establish the linkages between the regulatory requirements and the safety measures. The analysis of historical data...journal article 2021
