De voorste kruisband (VKB) is een belangrijke stabilisator in de knie. Een ruptuur van de VKB zal conservatief of operatief behandeld worden. Na een VKB reconstructie zal in de vroege revalidatie fase (0-8 weken) gestreefd worden naar het zo snel mogelijk herkrijgen van een goede mobiliteit en kniefunctie, …

Video feedback may be a powerful tool to change biomechanical landing patterns associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury risk. This study investigated the effect of video feedback on drop vertical jump (DVJ) landing strategies in team sport athletes. 59 athletes were assigned to a video …

Implicit (IF) and explicit (EF) feedback are two motor learning strategies that have been demonstrated to alter biomechanical movement patterns. While both strategies have been utilized for injury prevention, it remains unclear which strategy may be more effective. PURPOSE: To examine the effects of …

BACKGROUND: ICT based solutions are increasingly introduced for active and healthy ageing. In this context continuous monitoring of older adults with domestic sensor systems has been suggested to provide important information about their functional health. However, there is not yet a solid model for …

In order to determine whether small-sided game (SSG) locomotor performance can serve as a fitness indicator, we (1) compared 6-a-side (6v6) SSG-intensity of players varying in fitness and skill, (2) examined the relationship of the 6v6-SSG and Yo-Yo IR2 and (3) assessed the reliability of the 6v6-SSG. …

Sensor systems can be deployed in the homes of older adults living alone for functional health assessments. Their information is very useful for health care specialists. The problem lies in developing person independent models while facing a large variability in behavior. We address this problem by, …

The performance of human-robot collaboration tasks can be improved by incorporating predictions of the human collaborator's movement intentions. These predictions allow a collaborative robot to both provide appropriate assistance and plan its own motion so it does not interfere with the human. In the …

We demonstrate a method that allows two users to communicate remotely using their sense of touch by dynamically applying vibrotactile feedback to one user's forearm using two different input methods. User input on a standard mobile touch-screen device or a purpose-built touch-sensitive wearable is analyzed …

Abstract gepubliseerd in Elsevier: For patients with intermediate- and high risk prostate cancer, treated with high dose radiotherapy, the CTV generally involves the prostate and (part of) the seminal vesicles (SV) [1,2]. Fiducial markers locate the prostate reliably during radiotherapy [3]. However …

In dit afstudeerrapport is gepoogd antwoord te krijgen op de vraag hoe innovaties om bodemdaling in het Groene Hart te reduceren in gang kunnen worden gezet. In het onderzoek is gekeken naar de mogelijkheden die er zijn om innovaties die als doel hebben de bodemdaling in het veenweidegebied te reduceren, …
