Estimates of the economic burden of work injuries and diseases can help policymakers prioritize occupational health and safety policies and interventions in order to best allocate scarce resources. Several attempts have been made to estimate these economic burdens at the national level, but most have not included a comprehensive list...article 2021

(author)The potential opportunities of perovskite-based technology to further advance in the photovoltaic field and implement an extensive industrial application, will mainly depend on whether some of its weaknesses, such as current density-voltage (J−V) hysteresis, can be overcome. In this sense, a critical aspect is the understanding and the...article 2020

(author), Guxens, M. (author)Background: Prenatal exposure to organophosphate (OP) pesticides associate with impaired neurodevelopment in humans and animal models. However, much uncertainty exists about the brain structural alterations underlying these associations. The objective of this study was to determine whether maternal OP pesticide metabolite concentrations in urine...article 2020

Vazquez, A.R. (author), Goos, P. (author), Schoen, E.D. (author)Two-level orthogonal arrays of N runs, k factors, and a strength of 3 provide suitable fractional factorial designs in situations where many of the main effects are expected to be active, as well as some two-factor interactions. If they consist of N/2 mirror image pairs, these designs are fold-over designs. They are called even and provide at...article 2019

van Wanum, M. (author), de Boer, L. (author), van Vliet, F.E. (author)This paper describes a fractional-N PLL IC with absolute phase control utilizing an on-chip loop-filter. The frequency range is 2.6 to 3.5 GHz, which covers one of the bands for future low-band 5G telecommunication systems. For phased-array operation a compact form-factor is needed as the space available for the complete front-end is limited by...conference paper 2018

(author)Satellite-based whitecap fraction (W) data have been used to predict sea spray aerosol (SSA) emission rates. This allows to evaluate how an account for natural variability of whitecaps in the W parameterization would affect SSA mass flux predictions when using a sea spray source function (SSSF) based on the whitecap method.

Belfroid, S.P.C. (author), Nennie, E.D. (author), Lewis, M. (author)Piping structures are generally subjected to high dynamic loading due to multiphase fluid forces. In particular subsea structures are very vulnerable as large flexibility is required to cope for instance with thermal stresses. The forces due to multiphase flow are characterized by a broadband spectrum with high amplitudes. These forces differ...conference paper 2016
