The world’s population is consistently increasing and as such is the demand for food. Current industrial farming methods pollute the environment and are unsustainable on multiple levels. To be able to feed future populations it is necessary to look for new, efficient, and more sustainable ways to feed …

Green energy is just one of the two types of energy humanity needs, the energy for our man-made world, including cities, road networks, industries and technological systems (energy for the systems that drive out the ecology). However, a second type of energy is needed to meet our biological needs, energy …

Background: Ventilation with lower positive end–expiratory pressure (PEEP) may cause loss of lung aeration in critically ill invasively ventilated patients. This study investigated whether a systematic lung ultrasound (LUS) scoring system can detect such changes in lung aeration in a study comparing …

Many ARM Cortex-M-based microcontrollers include tracing features which allow monitoring hardware events (e.g. exceptions occurring, a specific instruction being executed or a specific address range being accessed by the CPU). Tracing enables non-intrusive insight into software execution (i.e. software …

This graduation project, led by the Smart Industry research group at Saxion together with the Ambient Intelligence research group (AmI), aims to create an energy analysis tool for the SERENE/SUSTENANCE projects in the Dutch sustainable communities of Vriendenerf and Aardehuis. The goal of the project …

The WATERMINING project aims to bring solutions to improve the circularity of water treatment and the resulting by-products of these processes. Achieving a deep understanding of the barriers potentially hindering the development of circular water solutions is crucial to design policies that enable the …

There appears to be some hesitation within the forensic biology community to formally evaluate and report on findings given activity level propositions. This hesitance in part stems from concerns about the lack of relevant data on the dynamics of biological traces and doubt about the relevance of such …

Presentation for the GREEN project during the KCNR Symposium on 19th January 2023

Background: Team-based palliative care interventions have shown positive results for patients at the end of life in both hospital and community settings. However, evidence on the effectiveness of transmural, that is, spanning hospital and home, team-based palliative care collaborations is limited. Aim: …

The goal of a local energy community (LEC) is to create a more sustainable, resilient, and efficient energy system by reducing dependence on centralized power sources and enabling greater participation and control by local communities and individuals. LEC requires transformations in local energy systems, …
