PURPOSE: To compare the responses in knee joint muscle activation patterns to different perturbations during gait in healthy subjects. SCOPE: Nine healthy participants were subjected to perturbed walking on a split-belt treadmill. Four perturbation types were applied, each at five intensities. The activations …

This paper evaluates a design procedure which is able to scale one-dimensional quadratic-residue diffusers, with integrated Helmholtz resonators. These acoustic structures can be tuned to room modes while fitting within a specified volume. An algorithmic solver is used to control geometric parameters …

Purpose: The study aims to explain the communicative basis of conflicts in which actors stand in opposition in defining a negotiated situation and to deepen knowledge of environmental conflict development, in particular on how frames are (re)shaped through discursive choices in interaction. Design/methodology/approach: This …

For organizations that use IT systems in their primary business or as support of their business processes, optimal alignment between the business strategy and their business information technology (BIT) is critical. However, achieving business information technology alignment remains challenging due …

Meeting new social and cultural demands in future housing and inspired by a family background in the Moluccan kampongs, this project makes a plea for multigenerational living. Situated in an inner-city district destined for high rise developments, a stacked tall building contains semidetached three floor …

The COVID-19 pandemic led to an accelerated implementation of digital solutions, such as online proctoring. In this paper we discuss how the use of an ethical matrix may influence the way in which digital solutions are applied. To initiate an ethical discussion, we conducted an online workshop with …

Waterschap Scheldestromen is curious about a 4-electrode conductivity sensor from Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre(imec), which provides a larger working range than Waterschap’s commercial 2-electrode sensor. The project aims to test the performance of this imec sensor, and couple it with Arduino …

Addressing and integrating human values into AI design and development processes in research and practice can be di cult, and a clear methodological approach can clarify issues of both theory and prac- tice. One such approach is Value Sensitive Design (VSD), an established theory for addressing issues …

The cryptophyte Rhodomonas salina is widely used in aquaculture due to its high nutritional profile. This study aims to investigate the effect of salinity and pH on the growth, phycoerythrin concentrations, and concentrations of non-volatile umami taste active compounds of R. salina, using a design of …
