The decomposition of a body is influenced by burial conditions, making it crucial to understand the impact of different conditions for accurate grave detection. Geophysical techniques using drones have gained popularity in locating clandestine graves, offering non-invasive methods for detecting surface …

Airborne wind energy (AWE) systems use tethered flying devices to harvest higher-altitude winds to produce electricity. For the success of the technology, it is crucial to understand how people perceive and respond to it. If concerns about the technology are not taken seriously, it could delay or prevent …

Rotor morphing has been investigated in the past for improvement of rotor performance, either for reduction of rotor power demand or for vibratory load alleviation. The present study investigates the application of camber morphing for improvement of rotor performance in hover and vertical flight conditions, …

Stormwater flooding and thermal stresses of citizens are two important phenomena for most of the dense urban area. Due to the climate change, these two phenomena will occur more frequently and cause serious problems. Therefore, the sectors for public health and disaster management should be able to assess …

BACKGROUND: It is generally unknown to what extent organ transplant recipients can be physically challenged. During an expedition to Mount Kilimanjaro, the tolerance for strenuous physical activity and high-altitude of organ transplant recipients after various types of transplantation was compared to …

Op het congres van de Britisch Transplant Society en de Nederlandse Transplantatie Vereniging dat gehouden werd in Bournemouth, Engeland is deze bijgevoegde poster gepresenteerd. De poster beschrijft het onderzoek naar de inspanningstolerantie van mensen na een orgaantransplantatie op grote hoogte, tijdens …

Insteek van dit onderzoek was: “Wat is de invloed van vrij grote, kunstmatige hoogteverschillen in de Nederlandse openbare ruimte in ruimtelijke en functionele zin?”. Gekozen is voor het onderwerp hoogteverschillen, omdat er in het plangebied de Spuikom (Vlissingen) veel hoogteverschillen voorkomen. …

Satellites are an increasingly important tool in modern warfare and, as such, there is a renewed interest in developing anti-satellite weapons, as well as in assessing the vulnerability of satellites to being intercepted. In 2007 China used a modified ballistic missile to intercept a defunct Chinese …
