Introduction: In clinical practice AP pelvis standard protocols are suitable for average size patients. However, as the average body size has increased over the past decades, radiographers have had to improve their practice in order to ensure that adequate image quality with minimal radiation dose to …

Introduction: Strenuous physical stress induces a range of physiological responses, the extent depending, among others, on the nature and severity of the exercise, a person’s training level and overall physical resilience. This principle can also be used in an experimental set-up by measuring time-dependent …

From 2015 till present, the Professorship for Polymer Engineering has developed the principle of structural re-use of End-of-Life (EoL) thermoset composite products. The method is based on keeping the composite structure of EoL products but machining them into smaller parts, either strips or flakes, …

Accurate sound field reproduction in rooms is often limited by the lack of knowledge of the room characteristics. Information about the room shape or nearby reflecting boundaries can, in principle, be used to improve the accuracy of the reproduction. In this paper, we propose a method to infer the location …

In the food industry water is commonly used in production. The egislation on water quality is focused on drinking water. The question arises: How should European producers of dry bulk food ingredients approach their decisions on process water quality considering production efficiency and the food safety …

The research goal of this dissertation is to make configurational HRM usable for science and practice by developing a simulation model and serious game. These tools offer HRM professionals the opportunity to design a multiyear HRM configuration that shapes employee behaviour, while enabling HRM research …

Medical imaging practice changed dramatically with the introduction of digital imaging. Although digital imaging has many advantages, it also has made it easier to delete images that are not of diagnostic quality. Mistakes in imaging—from improper patient positioning, patient movement during the examination, …

Development of novel testing strategies to detect adverse human health effects is of interest to replace in vivo-based drug and chemical safety testing. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether physiologically based kinetic (PBK) modeling-facilitated conversion of in vitro toxicity data …

Art therapy is widely used and effective in the treatment of patients diagnosed with Personality Disorders (PDs). Current psychotherapeutic approaches may benefit from this additional therapy to improve their efficacy. But what is the patient perspective upon this therapy? This study explored perceived …

Many challenges that confront today’s society are complex and dynamic and require new perspectives to arrive at solutions that could not be found before.
