Knulst, A.J. (author), Harms, Jan Jouke (author), Dankelman, J. (author)Surgeons have indicated ergonomic problems with the surgical luminaire, which have been observed to occur during repositioning. The possibility of singularity, within the movement space of the translational subsystem of the current double-arm suspension systems, is confirmed to be the cause of these problems. In this study, a redesign of the...journal article 2020

van Dijk, E.J.H. (author), Pronk, M. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author)The settling behavior of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) in full-scale reactors is different from the settling of normal activated sludge. Current activated sludge models lack the features to describe the segregation of granules based on size during the settling process. This segregation plays an important role in the granulation process and...journal article 2020

Vossen, T.E. (author), Henze, Ineke (author), de Vries, M.J. (author), van Driel, J.A.S. (author)Research and design activities are becoming more important in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) and D&T (design and technology) education. Research and design are often taught separately from each other, while in professional STEM practices, many projects are neither ‘research only’ or ‘design only’—they are both. In...journal article 2019

(author), Goossens, R.H.M. (author)In Ergonomic product design, designers need to translate anthropometric data of the target population into product dimensions or sizing systems. Currently, sizing systems are often based on traditional anthropometric data and generally use the variation of one or two key body dimensions directly related to the product. For products that need to...conference paper 2019
