This research involves the development of the City Scan methodology to measure, map, scan and assess different parameters that together give insight in the vulnerability of urban areas and neighborhoods. Cities are becoming increasingly vulnerable for climate change and there is an urgent need to become …

In this study we measured the performance times on the Wheelchair Mobility Performance (WMP) test during different test conditions to see if the performance times changed when wheelchair settings were changed. The overall performance time on the WMP test increased when the tire pressure was reduced and …

This study provides an overview of PMS models and elaborates in which way they can integrate sustainability within data center 's corporate strategy. Furthermore, the study describes the characteristics of each model and investigates which model would be appropriate for data center 's needs and what …

Blended face-to-face and Web-based treatment is a promising way to deliver cognitive behavioral therapy. Since adherence has been shown to be a measure for treatment’s acceptability and a determinant for treatment’s effectiveness, in this study, we explored adherence to a new blended smoking cessation …

Doelstelling: In deze studie is bij gezonde jongeren onderzoek gedaan naar de criteriumvaliditeit van de Steep Ramp Test (SRT), een maximale anaerobe inspanningstest. Dit onderzoek is een deelstudie van een groter geheel, het STEep Ramp test Norm values Utrecht Measurement (STERNUM) onderzoek. Methode: …

Cities are becoming increasingly vulnerable to climate change and there is an urgent need to become more resilient. This research involves the development of the City Climate Scan methodology to measure, map, scan and assess different parameters that provide insight into the vulnerability of urban areas …

We report on a first field test in which miniaturized sensor motes were used to explore and inspect an operational pipeline by performing in situ measurements. The spherical sensor motes with a diameter of 39 mm were equipped with an inertial measurement unit (IMU) measuring 3-D acceleration, rotation, …

Purpose: To examine the effects of different small-sided games (SSGs) on physical and technical aspects of performance in wheelchair basketball (WB) players. Design: Observational cohort study. Methods: Fifteen highly trained WB players participated in a single 5v5 (24-s shot clock) match and …

This research examined the role of the European Union in lowering medicine prices of cancer treatment. For this, the following research question was used: How can the European Union contribute to the reduction of medicine prices of cancer treatment? This question was answered by means of seven sub-questions, …

Purpose: Classification is a defining factor for competition in wheelchair sports, but it is a delicate and time-consuming process with often questionable validity. New inertial sensor-based measurement methods applied in match play and field tests allow for more precise and objective estimates of the …
