Telemetrie is een vorm van continue hartbewaking waarbij het hartritme van patiënten op afstand wordt gemonitord. In de klinische praktijk leidt deze bewaking vaak tot een hoge frequentie aan alarmen, waarvan een groot deel vals-positief of niet-actiegericht is. Deze overvloed aan alarmen kan leiden …

In an increasingly globalized world challenged by multiple social problems, global social identifications (GSIs, e.g., with all humanity) are concepts of growing interest. Although such identifications can be affected by the cultural contexts in which they are manifested, research on them remains largely …

Designing lead-free piezoelectric ceramics with tailored electrical properties remains a critical challenge for various applications. In this paper we present a novel methodology integrating Machine Learning (ML) and optimization procedures to fine-tune electrical properties in lead-free (1-x) Na0.5 …

Milieucriminaliteit heeft ernstige gevolgen voor de natuur, de veiligheid en gezondheid van individuen en de economie. Onder milieucriminaliteit wordt onder meer verstaan ​​het illegaal lozen van afval in bodem of water, het dumpen van drugsafval (giftig afval afkomstig van de productie van synthetische …

Vibrational and structural properties of lead-free piezoelectric (1-x)Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3–xCaTiO3 (0 < x < 1.00) solid solutions have been investigated using Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Different anomalies were detected and analyzed taking into consideration the phase transition from rhombohedral …

The world population is aging, which increases the prevalence of physical limitation and chronic diseases. A major cause of these physical limitation and chronic diseases is a low muscle mass (sarcopenia) and/or a high fat mass (obesity). Coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity, called sarcopenic obesity, …

Why cities need economic intelligence The economies of Europe’s cities are changingfast, and it is not easy to predict which segmentsof the local economy will grow and which oneswill decline. Yet, cities must make decisions as towhere to invest, and face a number of questionsthat are difficultto answer:Where …

What is the triple helix? The triple helix (3H) of university-industry-government relations has become one of the most popular innovation models in the lasttwo decades. What is the relevance for cities? How can they grow their economies using triple helix approaches? What can we learnfrom cases across …

In a growing number of economic branches, citizens are becoming more active, as part-time producers, service providers, suppliers or even entrepreneurs. They compete with traditional companies, but often operate through new business models.
