Within the semiconductor industry the demand for ever decreasing chip and resistor sizes has forced the use of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) waves in lithography machines. The older generation lithography machines used lenses to focus the waves. These lenses aren't transparent for EUV waves with a wavelength …

In contrast to western countries, foot complaints are rare in Africa. This is remarkable, as many African adults walk many hours each day, often barefoot or with worn-out shoes. The reason why Africans can withstand such loading without developing foot complaints might be related to the way the foot …

Deformation quantities such as strain, curvature and displacement are of paramount importance in seismic design within a performance-based procedure that aims to control the structural response at predefined levels of inelastic action. Given the importance of curvature expressions independent of strength …

Implementing saves, editors and other persistence functionality in games can be cumbersome. Saving and loading the game state can be complex. This thesis describes building a system to make this task easier for game developers using the Unity game engine.

Respiratoire spieren zijn de spieren die de ademhaling mogelijk maken. Deze spieren spelen een grote rol tijdens inspanning en bestaan voornamelijk uit spiervezels type I(1). Er is een lineair verband tussen respiratoire spiervermoeidheid en de neurologische en cardiovasculaire gevolgen(2). Een theorie …

AIM: This paper is a report of the development and testing of the psychometric properties of an instrument to measure the accuracy of nursing documentation in general hospitals. BACKGROUND: Little information is available about the accuracy of nursing documentation. None of the existing instruments that …

PURPOSE: The popularity of long-distance walking (LDW) has increased in the last decades. However, the effects of LDW on plantar pressure distribution and foot complaints, in particular, after several days of walking, have not been studied. METHODS: We obtained the plantar pressure data of 62 subjects …

One way to reduce the fuel consumption to payload ratio of heavy vehicle combinations is to reduce the empty trailer weight. This requires an understanding of the vehicle structure, assembly techniques and production process, and of special materials (e.g. high strength steel) with emphasis on strength …
