Wineries are not new in the Netherlands, but they still are mostly small scale and for this reason have separate locations for growing the vines and processing the grapes. This design project outlines a different scenario, where vacant agricultural plots are combined into a large whole and can support …

BACKGROUND: Communicative participation is the primary outcome of speech and language therapy for people with communication disorders. However, there are no instruments that measure communicative participation from the perspective of adolescents and young adults. Moreover, little research has been conducted …

Light profoundly impacts many aspects of human physiology and behaviour, including the synchronization of the circadian clock, the production of melatonin, and cognition. These effects of light, termed the non-visual effects of light, have been primarily investigated in laboratory settings, where light …

The boundary object we consider is a boundary spanning practice tied to a specific location, namely the open lab – hence the title ‘The Open Lab as a Boundary Object’. We approach the question if an open lab as a place that can operate as a boundary object that fosters intersectionality, malleability, …

By designing the built environment for people instead of cars, a contribution can be made to a softer city, which improves the quality of life for residents as well as their health. Important aspects of such an environment are social infrastructure stimulating encounters, as well as shops and other daily …

Loneliness among young adults is a growing concern worldwide, posing serious health risks. While the human ecological framework explains how various factors such as socio-demographic, social, and built environment characteristics can affect this feeling, still, relatively little is known about the effect …

Background & aims: Accurate diagnosis of sarcopenia requires evaluation of muscle quality, which refers to the amount of fat infiltration in muscle tissue. In this study, we aim to investigate whether we can independently predict mortality risk in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) patients, …

This article discusses Deep Mapping in Geography teaching and learning by drawing on a case study of a summer school organised during the COVID-19 pandemic. Deep Mapping was used to foster deep learning among the students and teach them about a distant place and people. The exercise tasked the students …

The inefficiency of maintaining static and long-lasting safety zones in environments where actual risks are limited is likely to increase in the coming decades, as autonomous systems become more common and human workers fewer in numbers. Nevertheless, an uncompromising approach to safety remains paramount, …

In this work, in situ measurements of the radio frequency electromagnetic field exposure have been conducted for an indoor massive MIMO 5G base station operating at 26–28 GHz. Measurements were performed at six different positions (at distances between 9.94 and 14.32 m from the base station), of which …
