Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of secondary services and facilities provided by Human Facility Management (HFM) on the Work-Life-Balance (WLB) of employees working in office environments in the Netherlands and Germany. The study aims to explore the contribution …

The age estimation of biological traces is one of the holy grails in forensic investigations. We developed a method for the age estimation of semen stains using fluorescence spectroscopy in conjunction with a stoichiometric ageing model. The model describes the degradation and generation rate of proteins …

Background: The built environment is increasingly recognized as a determinant for health and health behaviors. Existing evidence regarding the relationship between environment and health (behaviors) is varying in significance and magnitude, and more high-quality longitudinal studies are needed. The aim …

Lichtvervuiling is mogelijk een van de oorzaken van de afname van de motten populaties. Eerder onderzoek op motten heeft al negatieve effecten aangetoond. Licht met lange golflengten heeft vaak een significant kleiner negatief effect dan licht met korte golflengten. Deze onderzoeken zijn niet uitgevoerd …

In this work, a feasible and low-cost approach is proposed for level measurement in multiphase systems inside tanks used for petroleum-derived oil production. The developed level sensor system consisted of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), light-dependent resistor (LDR), and a low-cost microprocessor. Two …

The design and mission requirements of aero vehicles, which vary on a day-to-day basis, have become major study concerns in the burgeoning aviation sector. In addition to the design and mission criteria that must be met in an aero vehicle design, the designers' primary goals are to construct original, …
