Ecosystem engineering research has recently demonstrated the fundamental importance of non-trophic interactions for food-web structure. Particularly, by creating benign conditions in stressful environments, ecosystem engineers create hot beds of elevated levels of recruitment, growth, and survival of …

Sales Channel is a company, that offers quotation comparisons on behalf of their partners to companies, that need telecom, energy, printing, software or hardware. Because Sales Channel does not generate enough leads for the partners of the company via the current routes, the marketing department wants …

The International Protein Summit in 2016 brought experts in clinical nutrition and protein metabolism together from around the globe to determine the impact of high-dose protein administration on clinical outcomes and address barriers to its delivery in the critically ill patient. It has been suggested …

To obtain a unified framework for symmetric and asymmetric heterotic orbifold constructions we provide a systematic study of Narain compactifications orbifolded by finite order T -duality subgroups. We review the generalized vielbein that parametrizes the Narain moduli space (i.e. the metric, the B-field …

Rationale: Obesity is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes (DM2), however not all obese people develop DM2. We explored differences in energy intake and expenditure between obese older adults with and without DM2. Methods: Baseline data from 2 lifestyle interventions with a total of 202 obese older adults …

This research has been conducted to analyze the current water production process and see if improvements in terms of energy efficiency is possible by using the optimal configuration for different sailing profiles. Water consumption on cruise vessel is higher than on non-passenger vessels. Freshwater …

This study aims at examining the ways people communicate about energy transition, by analyzing the discourse of different stakeholders in a case of a local initiative for renewable energy. When moving from traditional to renewable energy, social acceptance of new technologies is of central importance, …

The municipality of Apeldoorn had polled the interest among its private home-owners to turn their homes energy neutral. Based on the enthusiastic response, Apeldoorn saw the launch of the Energy Apeldoorn (#ENEXAP) in 2011. Its goal was to convert to it technically and financially possible for privately …

We have investigated the photoionization and photodissociation of free coronene cations C24H12+ upon soft X-ray photoabsorption in the carbon K-edge region by means of a time-of-flight mass spectrometry approach. Core excitation into an unoccupied molecular orbital (below threshold) and core ionization …

In deze kwantitatieve fantoomstudie is de invloed van lucht in de darmen op een dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scan onderzocht. De gehanteerde onderzoeksvraag luidt: In hoeverre heeft de hoeveelheid lucht in de darmen na een (virtuele) coloscopie invloed op de gemeten "bone mineral density" van een …
