Zafeiropoulou, Katerina (author)Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is the accelerated process of intervertebral disc decay (decrease of disc thickness, enhanced cell death, ECM damage and collagen loss etc.), accompanied with pain, as well as structural and functional failure. So far, there are no therapies that can inhibit or even reverse the degenerative progress of this...master thesis 2017

Overes, Bart (author)Micro-/nanoimprint lithography is a high-throughput, high-resolution, and low-cost mass production fabrication process often used for creating microfluidic devices and optical components. In the imprint lithography process, a surface pattern of a stamp is replicated into a material by mechanical contact and three dimensional material...master thesis 2018

Scholte, Larissa (author)Half of the long-termed disabled stroke survivors experience increased hyper-resistance of the wrist. Discrimination between the two components of joint hyper-resistance, i.e. the neural reflexive and intrinsic tissue component, is important since the components require a different treatment method. To discriminate between the two components,...master thesis 2018

De Witte, Tinke (author)In recent years, bone tissue engineering has emerged as a promising strategy to overcome the limitations of current ‘gold standard’ treatment options for bone disorders such as bone autografts and allografts. Bone tissue engineering strategies rely on the development of a scaffold that mimics the extracellular matrix, thereby providing an...master thesis 2018

Anindito Kusumojati, Anindito (author)Subjectivity, lack of precision, and accuracy are the challenges in the spasticity clinical measurement. One of the causes is the unwell standardization of the measurements that cause temporary changes in muscle resistance termed as muscle thixotropy. This temporary changes can affect the accuracy of the result that may lead to a wrong diagnosis...master thesis 2018

Looijestijn, Anouk (author)<b>Introduction</b>. Air traffic controllers (ATCo’s) are responsible for a safe and efficient air traffic flow, and therefore, they are required to be excellent in conflict detection. Various studies have uncovered relationships between conflict geometry (e.g., conflict angle) and operators’ abilities to detect conflicts. However, little is...master thesis 2018

Smit, Stefan (author)Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), also known as brittle bone disease, affects 1 in 10.000 births. This disease is characterized by skeletal dysplasias, bone fragility and many secondary health issues. It is a heritable disorder affecting collagen type I, which is an essential protein in bone tissue. Post-translational overmodifications in collagen...master thesis 2018

Stuldreher, Ivo (author)Monitoring selectively directed auditory attention in groups can be helpful in a range of contexts, such as in education. In real-world settings, selectively directed attention cannot be monitored by relating physiological signals to known event markers. Determining the similarity of physiological responses across individuals in a group (i.e.,...master thesis 2019

Driessen, Tom (author)An appropriate understanding of a machine's competences may be critical for safe use. Sharing measures of real-time function reliability could help users to adjust their reliance on machine capabilities. We designed a vibrotactile interface that communicates spatiotemporal information about surrounding events and further encodes a representation...master thesis 2019

Filius, Suzanne (author)BACKGROUND - In a variety of patients with locomotive disorders gait efficiency is often assessed using mobile metabolic gas analysis during rehabilitative interventions. Conventionally, these measurements take 6 minutes per evaluated condition (e.g. with/without ankle-foot-orthosis; AFO). This duration is required since there is a dynamical...master thesis 2019

Christoforidis, Christos (author)Experimental data were obtained from riding a steer-by-wire bicycle on the open road while perturbing balance with impulsive forces at the seat post (lateral pertubations) as well as perturbing balance with impulsive torques at the steering assembly (steering pertubations). The experiments were conducted at 2.6–5.6 m/s covering both the stable...master thesis 2019

Snouckaert van Schauburg, Philip (author)Background: The efficacy of a thrombectomy procedure for acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) is largely dependent on mechanical behaviour of thrombi and interactions with the thrombectomy device. Studies have examined clot analogues and evidence suggests that thrombus mechanical properties largely depend on composition, yet evidence based on thrombi...master thesis 2019

Epke, Michael Ray (author)Communication between pedestrians and drivers partially relies on nonverbal communication methods such as eye-contact and gestures. With the transition from manually driven vehicles to automated vehicles (AVs), pedestrians could lose the ability to communicate their intention to the driver. This study investigated the use of hand gestures as a...master thesis 2019

Brouwer, Fleur (author)IntroductionThe Cellular Oxygen METabolism (COMET) monitor measures mitochondrial oxygentension (mitoPO2) in vivo at the bedside with delayed fluorescence ofmitochondrial protoporphyrin (PpIX). Blocking microcirculatory oxygen supply bypressing the measurement probe on the skin allows the measurement of mitochondrialoxygen...master thesis 2020

Pries, Rosanne (author)Bimanual coordination is essential for the performance of daily activities, but the underlying motor control mechanisms are not yet fully understood. The goal of the present study is to identify the contribution of contralateral responses in the wrist joints to the performance of a bimanual task. Contralateral responses could possibly be used in...master thesis 2020

Witte, Tieme (author)Newly educated sailors have a tendency to neglect the outside view when sailing [1], instead relying on systems like the Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS) [2] for information on ships in the area.Augmented Reality (AR) has been proposed as a solution to this problem, by visualising ships in the area in 3D at their physical...master thesis 2020

van Gaalen, Melissa (author)Introduction<br/>Transparent facial pressure masks with silicone sheeting are used as a non-invasive treatment option for hypertrophic scarring following oncological facial reconstruction. These masks are fabricated using conventional plaster moulds, which is labour-intensive and requires an experienced orthotist or prosthetist. 3D scanning and...master thesis 2020

van Diggelen, Fuda (author)This thesis is motivated by evolutionary robot systems where robot bodies and brains evolve simultaneously. In such a robot system, `birth' must be followed by `infant learning' by a learning method that works for various morphologies evolution may produce. Here we address the task of directed locomotion in modular robots with controllers based...master thesis 2020

van den Haak, Daniel (author)Lane change decision-making is an important challenge for automated vehicles, urging the need for high performance algorithms that are able to handle complex traffic situations. Deep reinforcement learning (DRL), a machine learning method based on artificial neural networks, has recently become a popular choice for modelling the lane change...master thesis 2021

Visser, Peter (author)Many modern vehicles are equipped with a sport mode, which intends to increase drivers' perceived sportiness of the vehicle, via e.g. power-train enhancement (PTE) or engine sound enhancement (ESE). However, to the best of authors' knowledge, no studies are available that investigated the individual or combined effects of PTE and ESE on...master thesis 2021
