Cohen, I. (author), den Braber, N. (author), Smets, N.J.J.M. (author), van Diggelen, J. (author), Brinkman, W.P. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author)In high-risk domains such as human space flight, cognitive performances can be negatively affected by emotional responses to events and conditions in their working environment (e.g., isolation and health incidents). The COgnitive Performance and Error (COPE) model distinguishes effects of work content on cognitive task load and emotional state,...article 2016

(author), Brauer, U. (author), Wolff, M. (author)Manned long-duration missions to the Moon and Mars set high operational, human factors and technical demands for a distributed support system, which enhances human-machine teams' capabilities to cope autonomously with unexpected, complex and potentially hazardous situations. Based on a situated Cognitive Engineering (sCE) method, we specified a...conference paper 2008

TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author), Groen, E.L. (author), Nooij, S.A.E. (author), Bos, J.E. (author)At TNO research is ongoing on neuro-vestibular adaptation to altered G-levels. It is well-known that during the first days in weightlessness 50-80% of all astronauts suffer from the Space Adaptation Syndrome (SAS), which involves space motion sickness, spatial disorientation and motion illusions. After return on Earth the problems re-appear, but...conference paper 2008

van Erp, J.B.F. (author), van Veen, H.A.H.C. (author), Ruijsendael, M. (author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)Data show that spatial orientation in microgravity differs from that on Earth possibly facilitating space motion sickness and degrading performance. As a technology demonstration, we developed a Tactile Orientation Awareness Support Tool (TOAST) consisting of a vest with 56 vibrators. TOAST presents an artificial gravity vector by a localised...article 2007

TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author), Nooij, S.A.E. (author), Bos, J.E. (author), Groen, E.L. (author), Bles, W. (author), Ockels, W.J. (author)During the first days in space, i.e., after a transition from 1G to 0G, more than 50% of the astro- (and cosmonauts) suffer from the Space Adaptation Syndrome (SAS).The symptoms of SAS, like nausea and dizziness, are especially provoked by head movements. Astronauts have mentioned close similarities between the symptoms of SAS and the symptoms...article 2007

(author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)Interest on food production systems based on the cultivation of vegetables for future planetary exploration missions is increasing as these units can help overcoming difficult and costly re-supply logistics. In addition to producing edible biomass by growing vegetable species, these systems can be used in closed loop configuration with bio...conference paper 2005

van Driel, C. (author), Eckhard, F. (author), Feron, P.H.M. (author), Rodriguez, A. (author), Tan, G.B. (author), TNO Milieu, Energie en Procesinnovatie (author)Membrane gas absorption and desorption (MGA/MGD) for the removal of CO 2 in manned spacecraft or other enclosed environment is subject of study by Stork and TNO for many years. The system is based on the combination of membrane separation and gas absorption. Advantage of this technology is that the system not only can be used to remove the...conference paper 2003
