(author), TNO Industrie en Techniek (author)Each year, 700 children are killed on European roads and 80,000 are injured. This represents an unacceptably high burden on Europe’s society and economy. Although it is not known exactly how many of these deaths and injuries occur in UNECE Regulation 44 approved CRS’s (Child Restraint Systems), it is considered that there is significant scope...report 2008

Hoornstra, E. (author), Telman, J. (author), TNO Industrie en Techniek (author)The initial contamination of food products with pathogens is an important risk factor in microbial risk assessments. This factor contains variability and uncertainty that can be calculated from various available monitoring results. When performing dedicated quantitative risk assessments, different methods can be chosen to transform the data into...article 2008

The Effect of Preconception Counselling on Lifestyle and Other Behaviour Before and During PregnancyElsinga, J. (author), de Jong-Potjer, L.C. (author), van der Pal-de Bruin, K.M. (author), le Cessie, S. (author), Assendelft, W.J.J. (author), Buitendijk, S.E. (author), TNO Kwaliteit van Leven (author)Background: Recent studies suggest that the basis for adverse pregnancy outcomes is often established early in pregnancy, during organogenesis. It is therefore important to take preventive action as early as possible, preferably before pregnancy. Because most adverse pregnancy outcomes occur in women who are unaware of being at risk, we...article 2008

Kooijman, G. (author), Hirschberg, A. (author), Golliard, J. (author), TNO Industrie en Techniek (author)The effect of mean grazing flow on the acoustical response of a single rectangular slot in a wall to imposed sound is investigated experimentally. For this purpose an accurate multi-microphone impedance tube set-up is employed. In particular the influence of the mean grazing flow characteristics as well as the orifice's (edge) geometry is...article 2008

(author), Brunekreef, B. (author), TNO Kwaliteit van Leven (author)Background: Several studies have found an effect on mortality of between-city contrasts in long-term exposure to air pollution. The effect of within-city contrasts is still poorly understood. Objectives: We studied the association between long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution and mortality in a Dutch cohort. Methods: We used data...article 2008

van Hees, R.P.J. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)Traditionally, the diagnosis of damage is largely based on the intuition and experience of the surveyor. However, this diagnosing process can be difficult to communicate, so that the underlying facts and assumptions often remain veiled, as this paper illustrates. Based on the results of a study of literature and a questionnaire, we suggest...conference paper 2008

(author), TNO Kwaliteit van Leven (author), KvL (author)Crispness is an important quality characteristic of dry solid food products such as crispy rolls. Its retention is directly related to the kinetics of water uptake by the crust. In this study, a method for the evaluation of the water sorption kinetics in bread crust is proposed. Two different sorption experiments were used: an oscillatory...article 2008
