Vink, P. (author), Franz, M. (author), Kampa, I. (author), Zenk, R. (author)Seats need to be more lightweight for airplanes, cars, busses and even trains to contribute to a better environment and to reduce energy consumption. However, a reduction in comfort due to weight reduction is not preferable, which opens a new area of research: improving comfort with a minimum of material or with lightweight materials and systems...article 2012

Lu, Z.F. (author), Doulabi, B.Z. (author), Huang, C.L. (author), Bank, R.A. (author), Helder, M.N. (author), TNO Kwaliteit van Leven (author)β1 integrins play a controversial role during chondrogenesis. Since the maturation of chondrocytes relies on a signaling switch from cell-cell to cell-matrix interactions, we hypothesized that β1 integrins play a different role at the earlier (mainly cell-cell interaction) from the later stage (mainly cell-matrix interaction) of chondrogenesis....article 2008

The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether insights into high reliability organizations (HROs) are useful for innovation management teams. HRO teams can keep failure to a minimum level due to high alertness and resilience. Project teams working on innovation management could benefit from HRO principles and thus reduce their...article 2018

Currently, this is the case for the car passengers and-in the future-autonomous driving cars will also facilitate drivers to perform other activities. One of these activities is working with handheld devices. Objective: Previous...article 2014

Pot, F.D. (author), Smulders, P.G.W. (author)Alle aandacht voor werkstress begin november 2014 richtte zich vooral op wat werkenden daartegen kunnen doen. Een gemiste kans, vinden Frank Pot en Peter Smulders, omdat niet naar de oorzaak wordt gekeken. Die ligt namelijk in de wijze waarop de arbeid is georganiseerd. Meer eigen regelmogelijkheden voor werkenden kan stress voorkomen.article 2014

(author)To increase knowledge on haem biosynthesis in filamentous fungi like Aspergillus niger, pathway-specific gene expression in response to haem and haem intermediates was analysed. This analysis showed that iron, 5′-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and possibly haem control haem biosynthesis mostly via modulating expression of hemA [coding for 5′...article 2012
