van der Slikke, R.M.A. (author), Berger, MAM (author), Bregman, DJJ (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)Increased professionalism in wheelchair sports demand a more precise and quantitative measure of individual wheelchair mobility performance, to allow it to be an evaluation measure of wheelchair setting or training optimization. This research describes the application of an inertial sensor based method for measuring wheelchair kinematics and a...conference paper 2016

Gasparutto, X. (author), van der Graaff, E (author), van der Helm, F.C.T. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)The purpose of this study was to assess the rotation and translation velocity of the shoulder complex during fastball pitching in baseball. 8 pitchers from the Dutch AAA team performed each 3 fastball pitches. Their motion was recorded by an opto-electronic device. Kinematic computation was performed using the quaternion algebra. The results...conference paper 2015

Gasparutto, X. (author), van der Graaff, E (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author), van der Helm, F.C.T. (author)Among baseball players, the pitchers are the most prone to injuries. These injuries occur mainly at the medial part of the elbow and at the shoulder. It is widely accepted that high joint loading are linked to overuse injury for repetitive motion. At maximal exo-rotation (MER), the elbow maximal abduction moment is predominantly counteracted by...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

van der Eb, Jeroen (author), Zandee, Willem (author), van den Bogaard, Timo (author), Geraets, Sjoerd (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author), Beek, Peter (author)The aim of the current study is to evaluate several performance indicators to be used as real-time feedback in the coming experiments to enhance performance of elite speeds skaters. Six speed skaters, wearing one IMU per skate, collected data over one full training season to evaluate and pinpoint useful performance indicators. Promising...conference paper 2017

van der Kruk, E. (author), Schwab, A.L. (author), van der Helm, F.C.T. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)To assist speed skaters in improving their skating performance, we would like to provide them with real time feedback on the orientation of the skate within a single stroke. While of course the forces generated by the skater on the ice determine the acceleration of the skater, the orientation of the skate determines in which direction this...conference paper 2016

Gasparutto, X. (author), Van Der Graaff, E. (author), van der Helm, F.C.T. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)In baseball, pitchers are the players that are most prone to injury. Most injuries occur at the elbow and shoulder of the throwing upper limb. It is widely accepted that understanding the loading in the joints during pitching is a key factor to prevent injuries. To deepen the understanding of the joint actions this study proposes to split the...conference paper 2016

van der Slikke, R.M.A. (author), Berger, Monique (author), Bregman, D.J.J. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)Short sprints are important components of most wheelchair court sports, since being faster than the opponent often determines keeping ball possession or not. Sprinting capacity is best measured during a field test, allowing the athlete to freely choose push strategies adapted to their own wheelchair setting, physical ability, classification...conference paper 2016

Dekker, Bo (author), Schouten, A.C. (author), Scharenborg, O.E. (author)Silent speech interfaces could enable people who lost the ability to use their voice or gestures to communicate with the external world, e.g., through decoding the person’s brain signals when imagining speech. Only a few and small databases exist that allow for the development and training of brain computer interfaces (BCIs) that can decode...conference paper 2023

van der Kruk, E. (author), van der Helm, F.C.T. (author), Schwab, A.L. (author), Veeger, H.E.J. (author)Pushoff in speed skating requires an extensive motion strategy. During speed skating the skater continuously changes the lean and steering angle of the skate and therewith the direction of push-off, The forces in an inertial coordinate system can give insight into what amount of the push-off force is directed into the forward motion. In this...conference paper 2016

Early diagnosis and intervention could increase the trunk motor capabilities in later life, but current tools used to assess the level of trunk motor control are largely...conference paper 2022

Plooij, M.C. (author)Since the industrial revolution, machines have taken over many tasks from humans, increasing labor productivity and prosperity. In the 20th century, the introduction of robots created a second wave of automation, increasing the labor productivity even further. In order to create a third wave of automation, it is necessary to develop a new...doctoral thesis 2015

De Groot, S. (author)Training in a simulator offers potential advantages compared to training in a non-simulated environment. Generally it is cheaper, safer, there is more control over the environment, and data collection is less complicated. These potential advantages give simulators the possibility to offer effective training. This thesis is divided into three...doctoral thesis 2013

Fan, C. (author)With the introduction of new technologies, surgical procedures have been varying from free access in open surgery towards limited access in minimal invasive surgery. During such procedures, surgeons have to manoeuver the instruments from outside the patient while looking at the monitor. Long and slender instruments are developed that can insert...doctoral thesis 2014

Forbes, P.A. (author)Head-neck stabilization is inherently challenging even when stationary, requiring constant vigilance to counter the downward pull of gravity. It involves a highly complex biomechanical system comprised of a large mass (the head) balanced on top of seven vertebrae (the neck), that are in turn connected to a moving base (the torso). This multi...doctoral thesis 2014
