van Klaveren, Leon (author)Mental health among young adults is in sharp decline, with over 68% of young adults in Europe reporting signs of burnout in the past year (Strava, 2021). This increasing prevalence of mental health problems among young adults, including burnout, anxiety, depression and feelings of hopelessness, has been exacerbated by factors such as the COVID...master thesis 2023

Wang, X. (author)In this thesis, fibre optic sensing has been investigated as an important technique for structural health monitoring. Distributed fibre optic sensing based on Rayleigh scattering is a fibre optic sensing technique to achieve the spatially continuous strain monitoring for critical locations for the structures. However, the Rayleigh backscattering...doctoral thesis 2023

den Heeten, Myrthe (author)This research aims to encourage healthy behaviour within the built environment using a technique called nudging. Mostly used outside of the field of architecture, nudging aims to improve health by presenting options in such a way people a more likely to choose one option (a healthier alternative), without losing any freedom of choice. <br/><br/...master thesis 2023

Psyllidis, A. (author)Can planning and design influence health and well-being in urban settings? Even though it was the public health issues faced by industrial cities that originally gave rise to the field of city planning, their paths have diverged over the years.However, how human settlements are planned, designed, and built can drastically improve or harm human...book chapter 2023

Lyu, Silong (author), Bidarra, Rafael (author)Conventional gait rehabilitation methods have the risk of alienating the patient due to their monotonous nature, thus negatively impacting the effectiveness of gait training. Modern technologies can help provide patients with better support, safety and immersive experience during training. However, physiotherapists cannot be required to...conference paper 2023

de Pater, I.I. (author), Mitici, M.A. (author)Most Remaining Useful Life (RUL) prognostics are obtained using supervised learning models trained with many labelled data samples (i.e., the true RUL is known). In aviation, however, aircraft systems are often preventively replaced before failure. There are thus very few labelled data samples available. We therefore propose a Long Short-Term...journal article 2023

Scheeren, B. (author), Kaminski, M.L. (author), Pahlavan, Lotfollah (author)This article presents an approach to identify naturally developed damage in low-speed bearings using waveform-similarity-based clustering of acoustic emissions (AEs) under fatigue loading. The approach is motivated by the notation that each recorded AE signal from a particular damage is defined by the convolution of the source signal, transfer...journal article 2023

Moradi, M. (author), Chiachío, Juan (author), Zarouchas, D. (author)Composite structures are highly valued for their strength-to-weight ratio, durability, and versatility, making them ideal for a variety of applications, including aerospace, automotive, and infrastructure. However, potential damage scenarios like impact, fatigue, and corrosion can lead to premature failure and pose a threat to safety. This...conference paper 2023

Xiao, Y. (author), Rans, C.D. (author), Zarouchas, D. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)Embedding fiber optic sensors (FOSs) within parts for strain measurement is attracting widespread interest due to its great potential in the field of structural health monitoring (SHM). This work proposes a novel method of embedding FOSs using capillaries within solid structures and investigates fiber positions and orientation uncertainties...journal article 2023

Bluyssen, P.M. (author)Research has shown that, even though the indoor environmental conditions seem to comply with current guidelines and those conditions seem ‘comfortable’ enough, staying indoors is not good for our health. Reasons for this discrepancy might be the fact that these guidelines are based on single-dose response relationships to prevent negative...abstract 2023

(author)BACKGROUND: Prompted by recent shocks and stresses to health systems globally, various studies have emerged on health system resilience. Our aim is to describe how health system resilience is operationalised within empirical studies and previous reviews. We compare these to the core conceptualisations and characteristics of resilience in a...journal article 2023

It delves into how designers and design researchers currently address mood in the context of experience-driven design. Using a scoping review methodology, we identified and thematically analyzed sixty-six highly relevant articles. Our...review 2023

(author)1H-NMR metabolomics data is increasingly used to track health and disease. Nightingale Health, a major supplier of 1H-NMR metabolomics, has recently updated the quantification strategy to further align with clinical standards. Such updates, however, might influence backward replicability, particularly affecting studies with repeated measures....journal article 2023

(author)Under in-plane compressive load conditions, the growth of a delamination initially induced by an impact can be followed by a fast growth after a threshold level, which leads to a catastrophic failure in composite structures. To avoid reaching this critical level, it is essential to uncover the delamination size and growth pattern in real time....conference paper 2023
