Bozali, B. (author), Ghodrat, S. (author), Plaude, L. (author), van Dam, J.J.F. (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)In recent years, knitted strain sensors have been developed that aim to achieve reliable sensing and high wearability, but they are associated with difficulties due to high hysteresis and low gauge factor (GF) values. This study investigated the electromechanical performance of the weft-knitted strain sensors with a systematic approach to...journal article 2022

Li, Xueliang Sean (author), Rozendaal, M.C. (author), Vermetten, Eric (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)Smart wearables are increasingly used to help people deal with stress. Still, a less explored area of research in this field concerns the partnerships that smart wearables can take on when engaging people in stress-coping activities. To facilitate further understanding of the human-wearable partnerships, we designed Grippy, a smart wearable...journal article 2022

Roelofsen, C.P.G. (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)In this study, using construction activities as an example, a proposal is made for the time-dependent prediction of the thermal sensation and the performance loss using a cooling vest, under transient conditions. The approach presented here can, mutatis mutandis, be used for any work activity and the use of a cooling vest, whether or not in a...journal article 2022

Roelofsen, C.P.G. (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author), Vink, P. (author)This paper has the objective to initiate a discussion on potential improvements or extension of the validity of the original equation of the Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied (PPD), according to (NEN-)EN-ISO 7730. This paper is to be regarded as a supplement to a paper on a re-derivation of the PMV equation in the Fanger model (Roelofsen,...journal article 2022

Roelofsen, C.P.G. (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the question “In what order of magnitude does the comfort and performance improvement lie with the use of a cooling vest for construction workers?”. Design/methodology/approach: The use of personal cooling systems, in the form of cooling vests, is not only intended to reduce the heat load, in...journal article 2022

Jansen, Sarah (author), Goodenough, K.D. (author), de Bone, S.W. (author), Gijswijt, Dion (author), Elkouss Coronas, D. (author)Entanglement distillation is an essential building block in quantum communication protocols. Here, we study the class of near-term implementable distillation protocols that use bilocal Clifford operations followed by a single round of communication. We introduce tools to enumerate and optimise over all protocols for up to n = 5 (not...journal article 2022

Dokter, G. (author), Jansen, B. (author), Thuvander, L. (author), Rahe, U. (author), Duijghuisen, J.A.K. (author)The transition to a Circular Economy (CE) requires designers to, more than ever, concurrently develop a circular design, supply chain and business model, and anticipate how products and buildings function over time. To address these challenges, recent studies identified specific knowledge and competencies for designers. However, it remains...journal article 2022

Jansen, Femke A. (author), Uijlenhoet, R. (author), Jacobs, Cor M.J. (author), Teuling, Adriaan J. (author)We study the controls on open water evaporation of a large lowland reservoir in the Netherlands. To this end, we analyse the dynamics of open water evaporation at two locations, Stavoren and Trintelhaven, at the border of Lake IJssel (1100ĝ€¯km2); eddy covariance systems were installed at these locations during the summer seasons of 2019 and...journal article 2022

van Stijn, A. (author), Eberhardt, L. C.M. (author), Jansen, B. (author), Meijer, A. (author)The transition towards a Circular Economy (CE) in the built environment is vital to reduce environmental impacts, resource consumption and waste generation. The built environment can be made circular by replacing building components with more circular ones. There are many circular design options for building components and knowledge about...journal article 2022

Liu, Q. (author), Ghodrat, S. (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)Shape memory alloy (SMA) wires are excellent candidates for wearable actuators since they are thin, low weight and have a high actuation force. The main drawbacks are that the wire should be kept straight and needs to be relatively long to enable a large enough actuation stroke. Embedding the SMA wire in a flexible tube largely enhances its...journal article 2022

(author)In the transition towards higher levels of vehicle automation, one of the key concerns with regards to human factors is to avoid mode confusion, when drivers misinterpret the driving mode and therewith misjudge their own tasks and responsibility. To enhance mode awareness, a clear human centered Human Machine Interface (HMI) is essential. The...journal article 2022
