Bumping Elbows explores a workflow integrating 3D body scanning technology with robotic knitting to create personalized garments. Traditional 3D knitting development relies on 2D drafts and panels, rooted in industrial flatbed knitting practices. Our approach leverages accurate topology measurements …

In this research, acrylate crosslinked PEG-b-PS polymersomes were synthesized and extensively tested. Polymersomes are nanovesicles that are self-assembled from amphiphilic block copolymers. Like liposomes, they can contain aqueous solutions in the core, which makes them interesting in the field of nanomedicine. …

Objective: The majority of parents with a disabled child experience chronic sorrow, characterized by recurrent feelings of grief and loss related to their child’s disability. There is a significant lack of research on parents’ lived experiences of chronic sorrow, which limits our ability to understand …

Artificial intelligence-driven technology increasingly shapes work practices and, accordingly, employees’ opportunities for meaningful work (MW). In our paper, we identify five dimensions of MW: pursuing a purpose, social relationships, exercising skills and self-development, autonomy, self-esteem and …

Aggregation into groups may affect performance of individuals through the balance and strength of facilitative versus competitive interactions. We studied in situ how seasonal variation in abiotic environment affects this balance for blue mussels, a semi-sessile species. We hypothesize that seasonal …

The wine market offers various categories of wines, some of which are considered conventional and others that are less well-known including organic, biodynamic, and‘natural’ wine. In the Netherlands, many consumers have limited awareness of the specific characteristics and benefits of environmentally …

XblocPlus is a single layer armour unit developed by BAM Infra Consult. The XblocPlus is the successor of the Xbloc and one of the main changes is that it is placed in a uniform pattern. Most of its hydraulic stability comes from the interlocking that the XblocPlus does. XblocPlus consists entirely …

In this lecture, Linde will share with us a project about salt marsh landscapes in England, Scotland and The Netherlands. This Lecture will occur in connection with a workshop revolving around recognizing, collecting and connecting of shapes in the land as an artistic method.

South Boom Boom is an attempt to survive in apnea, a continuous labor, a possibility to re-imagine the world, a way to escape captivity, to draw fugitive lines, to resist, to fight and fly, to conceive resistances, to migrate, to reinvent a catastrophe, to deform the shapes of oppression across time. This …
