Introduction<br/>Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent joint disease affecting 7% of the global population in 2020. Lower limb malalignment emerges as a significant contributor to OA, presenting as varus or valgus misalignment. This deviation induces unicompartmental pathology, leading to the wear and tear of the protective cartilage. Surgical...

Visits to the pediatric outpatient clinic are often accompanied by stress and anxiety, not only in the child but also within the parents. Within current trends in healthcare, parents are becoming more and more involved in the treatment of their child. The Hospital Hero Foundation, that already developed an app to reduce hospital related fear and...

This study presents a novel approach for evaluating the effects of dynamic disturbances on optical performance using sensitivity analysis. The computation of optical performance for perturbed optical systems is too costly with state-of-the-art analysis software when applied in the use case for the optimization of the optomechanical interface,...

At the turbulent/non-turbulent interface (TNTI) of a jet flow, momentum is transferred from the turbulent jet fluid to the fluid at rest. This transfer is governed by two mechanisms. One of them is related to the large scales of the flow and the other relates to the small scales of the flow. Which of the two is dominant is still a point of...

Organic micropollutants (OMPs) originate from organic chemicals such as drugs and pesticides that are widely used in human activities. OMPs are difficult to remove by conventional water treatment techniques, and hence continue to accumulate in natural water bodies. More effective methods need to be investigated for the removal of OMPs in...

This research investigates the challenges a user faces in the activation step in shape-changing products. First, previous research on the topic of 4DP is reviewed and important factors are described. Namely, activation temperature, print temperature, print speed, and layer height have a signifi cant impact on the shrinkage...

This study presents an AlN-based Lamb wave (A0 mode) liquid sensing device designed for biomedical applications. The Lamb wave device features a 1.5 μm composite membrane consisting of a 500 nm LPCVD SiN and a 1 μm of a c-axis oriented AlN film. Additionally, an innovative 45° rotated IDT design was explored to minimize edge reflections towards...

The growing consumption of fossil energy resources increases greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). To meet the industry sector's target of reducing GHG emissions by 49% in 2030, relative to the levels in 1990, there is a need for energy storage. Energy storage offers a potential solution to enhance the utilization of renewable energy, by addressing...

As the power system grows more complex and active, equivalent models have become a solution for modelling parts of the network that have limited observability or are confidential or too complex to simulate otherwise. In the past decade, this topic has also made its way to distribution networks because of its transition towards an active network,...

Given the enduring issues of human-induced climate change, the appeal of strategies aimed at reducing greenhouse gases has never been greater. CO2 is the most concerning greenhouse gas due to the large quantity already emitted into the atmosphere and the ongoing excessive emissions from anthropogenic activities. The transportation sector...

In the field of urban development few challenges are as tough as the housing problem. The cause for this is the rapid expansion of urban populations combined with slow construction processes. The Open Design Systems (Odesys) methodology is a preference-based design methodology for creating and evaluating designs. For this it uses a-priori method...

Each year, over 50 million tonnes of electronic waste is generated globally, with the Netherlands averaging more than 20 kg per capita (Compendium voor de Leefomgeving, 2023). The shift from a linear to a circular economy is crucial in addressing this issue, emphasizing the importance of durability and repairability in product design....

A network, is defined as a collection of nodes interconnected by links. When this topology changes through time, we call it a temporal network. A specific class of networks, with only two types of nodes with no connections between one kind, is the bipartite network. An example is a telecommunications network, where nodes represent...

Overconsumption plays a big part in the current environmental crisis, making a shift towards sufficient consumption imperative. Since overconsumption is often a habit, triggering a stop and re-think process in the consumers' minds may be the way for reduction. Societal norms, proven effective for behaviour change, could disrupt consumption...

Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is a mathematical technique for performing simulations of turbulent flows, such as those found in the Earth’s atmosphere. Compared to traditional numerical weather and climate models, LES is more accurate in representing turbulent processes and cloud dynamics. The computational burden of LES, however, have histor-...
