This study investigates the effect of position on build-plate on the dimensional deviations for stainless steel 316 L samples made by laser powder-bed fusion. To understand the effect of sample position on the build-plate (substrate) with respect to shrinkage and dimensional deviation, 36 samples in …

#archtivism is a movement that strives for a world where the building industry positively impacts our society, economy and environment. To tackle the main challenges of this globalisation era, homogeneity and the climate crisis in particular, #archtivism introduces the Place Responsive Design Method, …

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) with Polyamide 12 is increasingly used for production of functional components for prototyping and end-use. Common grades of PA12 powders age and cause a stock of unsintered powder material that cannot be re-used within the SLS process. This research explores and validates …

Doelstelling: Prematuren retinopathie (ROP) is wereldwijd een grote oorzaak voor blindheid bij kinderen. Er zijn verschillende behandelmogelijkheden, waaronder de laser en anti-vasculaire endotheliale groeifactoren (VEGF). Lasercoagulatie kan hoge myopie tot gevolg hebben, maar prematuren hebben op zichzelf …

Within this research a smart textile based light sensor was developed and integrated into a technical demonstrator of a remote identification system. This sensor is based on polymeric optical fibers (POFs) which contain fluorescent dopants and allows a remote detection using an optical laser pulse for …

In this study, an existing injection mould was partially optimized by adding CCCs to one of the mould inserts. The insert was additively manufactured in stainless steel using Selective Laser Melting. Simulations of the cooling process in the injection mould show that hot spots are eliminated, but the …

3D-metaalprinten is een relatief nieuwe Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologie die grote kansen biedt voor de maakindustrie. De investeringsdrempel is voor de meeste 3D-metaalprinttechnieken echter hoog en de benodigde expertise niet aanwezig in bedrijven en instellingen. De toepassing van deze technologie …

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is the most widespread type of musculoskeletal pain. Roughly 5% to 10% of low back pain cases become chronic, creating difficulties for those affected. High Intensity Laser Therapy (HILT) is used as treatment for musculoskeletal conditions. Studies have revealed HILT’s …

Inleiding: De ontwikkelingen met betrekking tot licht- en lasertherapie zijn sterk in opmars. Als er naar het vak huidtherapie wordt gekeken is het onduidelijk welke interventies worden ingezet in de praktijk, maar ook welke indicaties worden behandeld. Om deze reden kan dit onderzoek inzicht genereren …

Background: Acne vulgaris is a multifaceted skin disorder, affecting more than 85% of young individuals worldwide. Pharmacological therapy is not always desirable because of the development of antibiotic resistance or the potential risk of adverse effects. Non‐pharmacological therapies can be viable …
