Groen, Brenda (author), van der Voordt, Theo (author), Hoekstra, B.S. (author), van Sprang, Hester (author)Purpose: This paper aims to explore the relationship between satisfaction with buildings, facilities and services and perceived productivity support and to test whether the findings from a similar study of Batenburg and Van der Voordt (2008) are confirmed in a repeat study after 10 years with more recent data. Design/methodology/approach:...journal article 2019

Thomas, Miguel (author), Bossche, A. (author), Groen, W.A. (author), Bastemeijer, J. (author), Steijlen, A.S.M. (author), French, P.J. (author)Sweating is a normal reaction of the body to exercise. Although much of sweat is water, there are many other components. These components can be an indication of the condition of the athlete. Increase of elements and salts in the tissue will also work their way through to the sweat. Measurement directly in tissue can be an excellent indicator,...conference paper 2019

(author)Vibrational piezoelectric energy harvesters are being investigated to replace batteries in embedded sensor systems. The energy density that can be harvested depends on the figure of merit, d<sub>33</sub>g<sub>33</sub>, where d<sub>33</sub> and g<sub>33</sub> are the piezoelectric charge and voltage coefficient.

(author), Hendriks, B.H.W. (author)Safe and accurate placement of screws remains a critical issue in open and minimally invasive spine surgery. We propose to use diffuse reflectance (DR) spectroscopy as a sensing technology at the tip of a surgical instrument to ensure a safe path of the instrument through the cancellous bone of the vertebrae. This approach could potentially...journal article 2019

Stuber, V.L. (author), Mahon, T.R. (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author), Groen, W.A. (author)Polymer-piezoceramic composites have drawn a lot of attention for sensor and energy harvesting applications. Poling such materials can be difficult due to the electric field getting mostly distributed over the low dielectric constant matrix. During this process, the electrical matrix conductivity plays a vital role. This work shows how two...journal article 2019

(author)While most of the work on piezoelectric composites focuses on methods to reduce the dielectric constant of the composite (for better sensor and energy harvesting performance), for haptic feedback and actuator applications the opposite is desirable. We present here a study of the effect of adding a second ceramic phase (BaTiO3 nanoparticles)...conference paper 2019

Khaliq, J. (author), Hoeks, Theo (author), Groen, W.A. (author)In this paper, we present a method to create a highly sensitive piezoelectric quasi 1–3 composite using a thermoplastic material filled with a piezoelectric powder. An up-scalable high-temperature dielectrophoresis (DEP) process is used to manufacture the quasi 1–3 piezoelectric polymer-ceramic composites. For this work, thermoplastic cyclic...journal article 2019

Tuluk, A. (author), Mahon, T.R. (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author), Groen, W.A. (author)BiFeO<sub>3</sub> is a multiferroic material with the perovskite structure which is promising for use in sensors and transducers. Single phase production of BiFeO<sub>3</sub> remains a challenge, however. In this study, the optimal calcination temperature to obtain close to single phase powder was determined to be 750°C. The sintering...conference paper 2019

(author), Mulder, Max (author)Objective: This study tested whether simulator-based training of pilot responses to unexpected or novel events can be improved by including unpredictability and variability in training scenarios. Background: Current regulations allow for highly predictable and invariable training, which may not be sufficient to prepare pilots for unexpected...journal article 2018

(author)A commonly used strategy in the fabrication of organic electronics involves the use of orthogonal solvents, i.e. the alternating use of organic solvents and water for the application of consecutive layers to prevent dissolution of previous layers. This strategy therefore requires the deposition of sequential layers with a large mismatch in...journal article 2018
