(author)Background: Surgical site infection (SSI) in the form of postoperative deep sternal wound infection (DSWI) after cardiac surgery is a rare, but potentially fatal, complication. In addressing this, the focus is on preventive measures, as most risk factors for SSI are not controllable. Therefore, operating rooms are equipped with heating,...journal article 2024

Li, B. (author), van der Heijden, H.M.H. (author), Jansen, S.J.T. (author), Yan, Juan (author), Boelhouwer, P.J. (author)The private rented sector (PRS) plays an increasingly important role in accommodating young people and migrants in China’s metropolitan cities. However, the PRS in China is still underdeveloped, as evidenced by, e.g. a low degree of professionalisation, lack of basic rental laws and regulations, and poor housing experiences of tenants. The...journal article 2024

(author), Aikawa, Elena (author), van der Heiden, Kim (author), Wissing, Tamar (author)The rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque cap overlying a lipid pool and/or necrotic core can lead to thrombotic cardiovascular events. In essence, the rupture of the plaque cap is a mechanical event, which occurs when the local stress exceeds the local tissue strength. However, due to inter- and intra-cap heterogeneity, the resulting ultimate...review 2024

Liu, Q. (author), Ghodrat, Dr. Sepideh (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)We developed a shape-changing constructive kit, named Mimosa1. A key component of the toolkit is the modular hinges, each of which is equipped with two antagonistic shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. One wire deforms the hinge to approach its predetermined angle at high temperature, and another wire drives the hinge back when it cools down....conference paper 2024

Cornelissen, P. (author), Meulenbroek, B.J. (author), Jansen, J.D. (author)We critically review the derivation of closed-form analytical expressions for elastic displacements, strains, and stresses inside a subsurface reservoir undergoing pore pressure changes using inclusion theory. Although developed decades ago, inclusion theory has been used recently by various authors to obtain fast estimates of depletion...journal article 2024

Liu, Q. (author), Ghodrat, S. (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)Conventional hinge actuators often face limitations including excessive weight, large size and unpleasant noise. Shape memory alloys (SMAs) offer a solution to address these issues due to their favorable characteristics, such as lightweight, high actuation force and small form factor. However, most existing SMA-based hinge actuators rely on...journal article 2024

El Ali, Abdallah (author), Stepanova, Ekaterina R. (author), Palande, Shalvi (author), Mader, Angelika (author), Cesar, Pablo (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)Sharing breathing signals has the capacity to provide insights into hidden experiences and enhance interpersonal communication. However, it remains unclear how the modality of breath signals (visual, haptic) is socially interpreted during collaborative tasks. In this mixed-methods study, we design and evaluate BreatheWithMe, a prototype for...conference paper 2023

Naderloo, M. (author), Veltmeijer, A.V. (author), Jansen, J.D. (author), Barnhoorn, A. (author)Recent laboratory and field studies suggest that temporal variations in injection patterns (e.g., cyclic injection) might trigger less seismicity than constant monotonic injection. This study presents results from uniaxial compressive experiments performed on Red Felser sandstone samples providing new information on the effect of stress...journal article 2023

Liu, Q. (author), Ghodrat, S. (author), Huisman, G. (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)Devices delivering sophisticated and natural haptic feedback often encompass numerous mechanical elements, leading to increased sizes and wearability challenges. Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are lightweight, compact, and have high power-to-weight ratios, and thus can easily be embedded without affecting the overall device shapes. Here, a review...review 2023
