Highway congestion is an increasingly pressing societal problem, both in terms of cost (manyproductive hours lost) and safety (highway congestion increases the risk of accidents). While thereis a plethora of research on detecting and predicting traffic flow state from floating car data fromdata generators …

In our work as lecturers, teachers, researchers, coaches or managers in a university of applied sciences, we do feel that the amount and variety of societal challenges on higher vocational education (HVE) is growing. Institutions in HE are in a process of transforming from traditional ‘either or’ research …

A novel type of application for the exploration of enclosed or otherwise difficult to access environments requires large quantities of miniaturized sensor nodes to perform measurements while they traverse the environment in a “go with the flow” approach. Examples of these are the exploration of underground …

Electrohydrodynamic atomization (EHDA) is a technique which uses the influence of strong electric fields to manipulate the break-up of a liquid, pumped through a capillary nozzle, into droplets. In this work, an extended description of a specific high flow EHDA mode, known as the simple-jet mode, is …

The growing appetite of cities is one of the greatest future challenges. There is no set menu for meeting this appetite, but a trend is observed in which city authorities focus on region-based food provision. Regionalism is motivated by the importance of increased self-reliance. Besides, regional food …

In deze bijdrage presenteren we een aantal voorbeelden die laten zien dat verdieping van de unitstructuur een levensvatbaar alternatief is voor de vervanging van de unitstructuur door de multidimensionale organisatie (MDO), zoals voorgesteld door Strikwerda en Galbraith. In de MDO wordt gestreefd naar …

Increased intestinal permeability is linked to both intestinal as well as peripheral inflammatory disease. Contact between intestinal contents and the underlying immune system may account for excessive immune activation and local as well as systemic inflammation. Decreasing intestinal permeability using …

Urban flooding has become a key issue for many cities around the world. The project ‘INnovations for eXtreme Climatic EventS’ (INXCES) developed new innovative technological methods for risk assessment and mitigation of extreme hydroclimatic events and optimization of urban water-dependent ecosystem …

A few years ago the Dutch government set goals for sustainability. These goals include switching to fully sustainable energy production by 2050. Using only conventional sustainable energy production methods like solar panels and wind turbines will not result in achieving the set goals, so alternative …
