Hybrid Energy Storage System (HESS) have the potential to offer better flexibility to a grid than any single energy storage solution. However, sizing a HESS is challenging, as the required capacity, power and ramp rates for a given application are difficult to derive. This paper proposes a method for …

The ‘What Being the Parent of a New Baby is Like-Revised’ (WPL-R) is an instrument designed to measure adaptation to parenthood. In the process of pilot testing and validating the WPL-R in a postpartum Dutch population, we became aware of the potentially sensitive nature of the measure. Despite the ethics …

Objective To compare cost effectiveness of endovascular revascularisation (ER) and supervised exercise therapy (SET) as primary treatment for patients with intermittent claudication (IC) due to iliac artery obstruction. Methods Cost utility analysis from a restricted societal perspective and time horizon …

Objective:  International guidelines recommend supervised exercise therapy (SET) as primary treatment for all patients with intermittent claudication (IC), yet primary endovascular revascularisation (ER) might be more effective in patients with iliac artery obstruction.  Methods:  This was a multicentre …

Human behaviour change is necessary to meet targets set by the Paris Agreement to mitigate climate change. Restrictions and regulations put in place globally to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 during 2020 have had a substantial impact on everyday life, including many carbon-intensive behaviours such …

This literature review will focus on how CRISPR/Cas can be used in curing diabetes. CRISPR is a newly discovered genetical engineering tool that was first found in bacteria and it has an important immune function, protecting them from viral infections by cutting the viral DNA, thereby disabling it. Researchers …

Resolutions of certain toroidal orbifolds, like T6/ℤ2 × ℤ2, are far from unique, due to triangulation dependence of their resolved local singularities. This leads to an explosion of the number of topologically distinct smooth geometries associated to a single orbifold. By introducing a parameterisation …

Solar Boat, the project was born in 2009 by a group of enthusiastic students of mixed educational backgrounds who wanted to fill their free composition course points in a special, more meaningful way. They came in contact with DTIW and established an agreement of what they could offer each other, eventually …

Inspired by the notion that online sources had declared Final Fantasy VII Remake as a celebration of queerness, this study analyzes the ways in which the game has been adjusted. After an exploration of the concepts of queergaming and queer representation, the promotion of homophobia and heteronormativity …
