Immerse yourself in the changing landscape of healthcare innovation at the "eHealth Connect Conference: Bridging Disciplines for Scientific Research Collaboration." Join us in Groningen on 7 March 2024 for a dynamic exploration of the present and future of digital health and eHealth.Digital health is …

The built environment requires energy-flexible buildings to reduce energy peak loads and to maximize the use of (decentralized) renewable energy sources. The challenge is to arrive at smart control strategies that respond to the increasing variations in both the energy demand as well as the variable …

In this quasi-experimental study involving 23 fourth grade teachers, we investigated the effect of implementing teacher-child dynamic mathematics interviews to improve mathematics teaching behavior in the classroom. After a baseline period of 13 months, the teachers participated in a professional development …

The complexity of analysing dynamical systems often lies in the difficulty to monitor each of their dynamic properties. In this article, we use qualitative models to present an exhaustive way of representing every possible state of a given system, and combine it with Bayesian networks to integrate quantitative …

The dynamic inflow effect describes the unsteady aerodynamic response to fast changes in rotor loading due to the inertia of the wake. Fast changes in turbine loading due to pitch actuation or rotor speed transients lead to load overshoots. The phenomenon is suspected to be also relevant for gust situations; …

Background and objectives Before the Covid-19 pandemic, important social studies already indicated the severe negative feedback associated with high-rise developments. During the Covid-19 pandemic, citizens were confronted with their neighbourhoods’ insufficient restorative capacity to maintain their …

The external expectations of organizational accountability force organizational leaders to find solutions and answers in organizational (and information) governance to assuage the feelings of doubt and unease about the behaviour of the organization and its employees that continuously seem to be expressed …

Drinking water utilities are responsible for providing safe drinking water. As water directly impacts public health, water utilities follow stringent water treatment standards and processes. However to keep pace with the dynamic environment and tackle challenges such as water stress, water pollution, …

Usually the whole is the sum of its parts (added linearly): someone is happy and travelling, so happy travelling. Someone walks across a motionless and stable bridge and thus moves forward. But when hundreds of people walk together, the bridge may start to wobble quite suddenly. Both systems - the pedestrian …

The article argues that a dynamic systems theory approach can be helpful in understanding intrapersonal psychological behaviour changes. In terms of control and coordination, different movement systems - walk, trot, canter - are incomparable. This is also the case with psychological phase transitions. …
