Smit, Thijs (author), Koppen, S. (author), Ferguson, Stephen J. (author), Helgason, Benedikt (author)A promising new treatment for large and complex bone defects is to implant specifically designed and additively manufactured synthetic bone scaffolds. Optimizing the scaffold design can potentially improve bone in-growth and prevent under- and over-loading of the adjacent tissue. This study aims to optimize synthetic bone scaffolds over...journal article 2023

Culmone, C. (author), van Starkenburg, R.I.B. (author), Smit, G. (author), Breedveld, P. (author)In laparoscopy, a small incision size improves the surgical outcome but increases at the same time the rigidity of the instrument, with consequent impairment of the surgeon’s maneuverability. Such reduction introduces new challenges, such as the loss of wrist articulation or the impossibility of overcoming obstacles. A possible approach is using...journal article 2022

Rijnsdorp, D.P. (author), Smit, Pieter B. (author), Guza, R. T. (author)A fully nonlinear non-dispersive energy balance for surfzone waves is derived based on the nonlinear shallow water equations to study the nearshore dynamics of infragravity (IG) waves. Based on simulations of waves on a relatively moderate and mild beach slope with a non-hydrostatic wave-flow model (SWASH), the new theory shows that spatial...journal article 2022

van Dobben de Bruyn, J. (author), Smit, Harry (author), van der Wegen, Marieke (author)This paper compares the divisorial gonality of a finite graph G to the divisorial gonality of the associated metric graph Γ(G,1) with unit lengths. We show that dgon(Γ(G,1)) is equal to the minimal divisorial gonality of all regular subdivisions of G, and we provide a class of graphs for which this number is strictly smaller than the...journal article 2022
