A versatile shear cell for investigation of structure of food materials under shear

A versatile cell for X-ray and neutron scattering experiments on samples under shear has been designed. To our knowledge, it is the first shear cell which can be used for both SAXS and SANS in respectively synchrotron or reactor beamlines. The cell is mainly intended for scattering experiments in so-called “1–2 plane geometry” but can also be...

Satiating and Conscious Snacks: Facilitating Healthy eating experiences by manipulating food textures

This report is the graduation thesis for the Master of Design for Interaction, Faculty of Design Engineering at Delft University of Technology. The report presents a set of guidelines showing the relationships between food textures and conscious and satiating snacking experiences. As a designer, food textures can be considered as tools to shape...
