(author)In the present work, the potential of polyPOSS-imide membranes designed for the purification of H2 from a coke gas (utilized in the steelmaking industry) is investigated. Aiming at upscaling the membrane fabrication, tubular single-channel and multi-channel membranes were prepared, using polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) nanostructures...article 2021

Phillipson, F. (author), Langenkamp, P.N. (author), Wolthuis, R. (author)Bayesian Belief Networks are used in many fields of application. Defining the conditional dependencies via conditional probability tables requires the elicitation of expert belief to fill these tables, which grow very large quickly. In this work, we propose two methods to prepare these tables based on a low number of input parameters using...article 2021

Dhondt, S. (author), Oprins, E. (author), Zon, R. (author), van der Plaat, A. (author)Over the past decade, the social issues and working conditions of Air Traffic Controller (ATCO) and Engineering Staff (ATSEP) in the Air Traffic Management industry (ATM) have been affected by growing air traffic. This study provides a clear landscape of current and future social issues and working conditions of ATCOs and ATSEPs in the EU Member...report 2021

(author)Awareness of physical activity (PA) constraints in patients with primary hypothyroidism on thyroid hormone replacement therapy (THR) is important. Hence, this cross-sectional matched case-control study aimed to determine PA and sports participation (SP) in patients with hypothyroidism on THR in comparison to control subjects. Accordingly, survey...article 2021

Bottenheft, C. (author), Brouwer, A.M. (author), Stuldreher, I. (author), Groen, E. (author), van Erp, J. (author)Effects of stressors on cognitive task performance have primarily been studied in isolation, and little is known about the combined effects of two or more stressors. This study examined how a metabolic stressor (skipping breakfast) and a sensory stressor (noise) affect cognitive task performance in isolation and combined. In addition to...article 2021

(author)Mitigation pathways exploring end-of-century temperature targets often entail temperature overshoot. Little is known about the additional climate risks generated by overshooting temperature. Here we assessed the benefits of limiting overshoot. We computed the probabilistic impacts for different warming targets and overshoot levels on the basis...article 2021

Dol, H. (author), Blom, K. (author)It is a persistent misunderstanding that underwater acoustic communication at short range is always easier than at long range. Same for (quasi) stationary configurations being always easier than dynamic ones. This paper gives examples of high-rate links in very shallow water at several kilometres distance, as well as difficult communication...conference paper 2021

(author)Active prosthetic and orthotic devices have the potential to increase quality of life for individuals with impaired mobility. However, more research into human-like control methods is needed to create seamless interaction between device and user. In forward simulations the reflex-based neuromuscular model (RNM) by Song and Geyer shows promising...article 2021

(author)For high-contrast imaging systems, such as VLT/SPHERE, the performance of the system at small angular separations is contaminated by the wind-driven halo in the science image. This halo is a result of the servo-lag error in the adaptive optics (AO) system due to the finite time between measuring the wavefront phase and applying the phase...article 2020

Biemond, J.J.B. (author), Postoyan, R. (author), Heemels, W.P.M.H. (author), van de Wouw, N. (author)We investigate stability of a solution of a hybrid system in the sense that the graphs of solutions from nearby initial conditions remain close and tend towards the graph of the given solution. In this manner, a small continuous-time mismatch is allowed between the jump times of neighbouring solutions and the ‘peaking phenomenon’ is avoided. We...article 2020

Versteegh, G.J.M. (author), Houben, A.J.P. (author), Zonneveld, K.A.F. (author)Anoxic sediments, as compared to oxic settings, encompass a much higher proportion of relatively labile and thus more reactive organic matter, naturally giving rise to structural changes of the organic molecules themselves, as well as cross-linking between them (e.g., through reactive sulfur species). Both processes transform the original...article 2020

The impact of this environment during sporogenesis on subsequent growth is often neglected.This study investigates the effect of water availability during sporogenesis on subsequent early growth. Therefore, a carbon-depleted substrate was constructed. Humidity is...article 2020

van der Burg, E. (author), Hogervorst, M.A. (author), Toet, A. (author)Targets that are well camouflaged under static conditions are often easily detected as soon as they start moving. We investigated and evaluated ways to design camouflage that dynamically adapts to the background and conceals the target while taking the variation in potential viewing directions into account. In a human observer experiment...conference paper 2020

Dresscher, M. (author), Jayawardhana, B.
