van der Kruk, E. (author), Reijne, M.M. (author), de Laat, Bjorn (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)This study performed an analysis of the push-off forces of elite-short-track speed skaters using a new designed instrumented short-track speed skate with the aim to improve short-track skating performance. Four different skating strokes were distinguished for short-track speed skaters at speed. The strokes differed in stroke time, force level...journal article 2018

Pribic, Radmila (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author), Tzotzadinis, C. (author)Data acquisition in compressive sensing (CS) is commonly believed to be less complicated, and even less costly, while performing agreeably. There is a major lack of measureable foundations supporting this optimism as the performance and complexity of a CS sensor have hardly been quantified. We aim to fill the gap by computing the performance...conference paper 2018

Hunnekens, Bram (author), Kamps, Sjors (author), van de Wouw, N. (author)In this paper, we introduce a variable-gain control strategy for mechanical ventilators in the respiratory systems. Respiratory systems assist the patients who have difficulty breathing on their own. For the comfort of the patient, fast pressure buildup (and release) and a stable flow response are desired. However, linear controllers...journal article 2018

van Geenhuizen, M.S. (author)Living labs, as a methodology to enhance user-centric innovation, have large potentials in bringing inventions to the marketplace, but their performance can benefit more from evaluation. This article develops a novel framework for evaluation of living labs, including (1) a system approach providing an analytical view on living labs’...journal article 2018

Kersten, W.C. (author), Hong Long, N. (author), Diehl, J.C. (author), Crul, M.R.M. (author), van Engelen, J.M.L. (author)Millions of people worldwide die prematurely or suffer from severe health ailments due to cooking equipment that causes unhealthy doses of (household) air pollution. Many attempts to address this have fallen short because technology was not improved sufficiently or the way it was introduced constituted an ill fit with the broader “cooking eco...journal article 2017

Bluyssen, P.M. (author)From previous and recent studies is clear that an indoor environment of a school, may affect the health, comfort and performance of schoolchildren. Besides the occupants and their activities, the windows and the outdoor environment and the type of ventilation system, the interior (furnishing incl. flooring materials) is an important contributor...journal article 2016

Masip-Tresserra, J. (author)Despite strong efforts made by scholars to study the polycentric spatial organization of agglomeration in metropolitan areas, there is still no consensus about the conceptualization (i.e., identification and measurement) of polycentricity and its economic, social, and environmental (dis)advantages. Additionally, little is known in the policy...doctoral thesis 2016

Mehairjan, R.P.Y. (author)Presently, maintenance management of assets in infrastructure utilities such as electricity, gas and water are widely undergoing changes towards new working environments. These are mainly driven against the background of stringent regulatory regimes, an ageing asset base, increased customer demands and constrained financial resources. Therefore,...doctoral thesis 2016

Apostolou, G. (author), Reinders, A.H.M.E. (author), Verwaal, M. (author)This article presents a simple comparative model which has been developed for the estimation of the performance of photovoltaic (PV) products' cells in indoor environments. The model predicts the performance of PV solar cells, as a function of the distance from a spectrum of artificial (fluorescent light, halogen light, and light-emitting diodes...journal article 2016

van Dis, F. (author), Hoozemans, M (author), van der Graaff, E (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)The purpose of this prospective study was to examine the longitudinal changes in shoulder ER ROM and relative IR strength in elite youth baseball pitchers over one year and to determine their associations with changes in ball speed for throwing fastballs. One hundred and five Dutch elite youth baseball pitchers were measured three times over a...conference paper 2016

van der Graaff, E (author), Hoozemans, M (author), Nijhoff, M. (author), Davidson, M (author), Hoezen, M (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)The objective of the present study was to examine the relative timing of pelvis and thorax rotations in achieving high throwing velocities in baseball pitching. During the preseason, a kinematic analysis was performed on eight pitchers. Peak angular velocities of the pelvis and thorax were determined and separation, defined as the time between...conference paper 2016

Wan, J. (author), Pavel, M.D. (author)The Ornicopter concept is a single-rotor, tailless configuration. By actively flapping its blades, the Ornicopter rotor can propel itself to rotate, and hence does not need a tail rotor. In previous research, the Ornicopter concept has been compared with the Bo-105 conventional helicopter from various aspects, while the Ornicopter has the same...journal article 2016

(author)In 2008 Europe introduced the CEN standards for Asphalt Concrete. The Netherlands adopted the approach of functional requirements, rather than empirical, recipe based requirement. The experiences since 2008 showed that, although this approach allows for a better, more fundamental understanding of Asphalt Concrete, the current understanding is...conference paper 2015

Bazley, C. (author), Nugent, R. (author), Vink, P. (author)A review of literature on comfort and discomfort indicates an increase in physical discomfort during the workday. In this paper, three different types of occupations were studied to identify whether a similar discomfort pattern exists in these occupations while participants perform work throughout the work day and workweek. Results are that...journal article 2015

Kaelen, J.W.E.N. (author)The financial crisis and the introduction of low-budget companies have brought major changes to the air freight community. Competition became stronger and cost control became more important. This led to new ways of organizing aircraft Maintenance, Repair, Overhauls and Upgrades (MRO&U), which became performance oriented. For the triad of...doctoral thesis 2014
