Metropolitan Cebu, the third largest agglomeration in the Philippines with a population of approximately 3 million, faces significant challenges in managing domestic wastewater and solid waste. This mismanagement has led to the pollution of its water bodies, including the Mahiga Creek and the Butuanon …

Many primary care professionals are involved in caring for home-dwelling older adults with dementia. The complexity of older adult care has increased the necessity of collaborative initiatives.1 In the Dutch healthcare system, most allied health professionals are active in primary care as independent …

The use of recycled polymers within the field of extrusion is difficult due to their often inconsistent viscosity related to variations in composition and molecular weight. Such variations lead to fluctuations in die pressure, requiring continuous adjustments in the extrusion process. This study explores …

Veel werkgevers benaderen oudere werknemers nog altijd vanuit hardnekkige aannames en stereotypen. Ondanks jaren van onderzoek en maatschappelijke discussie geldt voor velen nog steeds het eenvormige beeld van oudere werknemers als inflexibel, vaak ziek, eigenwijs, minder productief, beperkt leerbaar, …

This research examines the impact of transitioning to an autonomous operation on the airside of Schiphol airport, with a specific focus on emissions that affect both the environment and the staff working within airport premises. This study will explore current emissions from vehicles on Schiphol's airside, …

Dispersion is a critical process within the extrusion industry. The attention of this study is drawn to the deficiency in dispersive mixing quality in single screw extruders compared to their twin screw counterparts. This study outlines an approach that is used to evaluate and quantify the quality of …

This study quantitatively investigates enrolments of international students using data that contains nearly every student in the Netherlands for the years 2016–2019. Using this data, we are able to perform a meso-level analysis where we could investigate the characteristics of higher education institutions …

This paper focuses on international student mobility and the funding of higher education. We theorize that relying on international students for funding is stronger for institutions in developed English-speaking countries because they more often adopt marketization practices. Compared to Northern and …

Extended Abstract Earli conferentie 2023

In this TechForFuture project ‘Polymer Mixing in a Single Screw Extruder’ a method to optimize mixing elements is developed based on numerical simulations (Computational Fluid Dynamics, CFD). A numerical procedure is developed to calculate the flow field in the extruder. By tracing particles in this …
