Part of the project: TFF-Optimization of Mixing Elements. Polymer mixing with a single screw extruder is a common process in industry. Mixing quality depends on (amongst others) the screw geometry. The main objective of this study was to quantify distributive mixing behavior of a single screw extruder …

Background Body image has implications for psychosocial functioning and quality of life and its distur-bance is reported in a broad range of psychiatric disorders. In view of the lack of instruments in Dutch measuring body image as a broad concept, we set out to make an instrument avail-able that reflects …

Extrudate swell simulations and experiments have been performed with a viscoelastic tire rubber compound at high flow rates through a circular die. A 3-mode PTT model was fitted onto rheological data of the rubber. The PTT model covers the range of shear rates present in the simulation. Convergence of …

Objective Despite the increasing recognition in clinical practice of body image problems in other than appearance related mental disorders, the question remains how aspects of body image are affected in different disorders. The aim of this study was to measure body image in patients with a variety of …

Doctoral thesis about the neural basis of emotion processing and regulation in groups at increased risk for psychosis.

ACHTERGROND Er is groeiende aandacht voor de hulpvragen rondom ouderschap van mensen met ernstige psychische aandoeningen. Weinig is echter bekend over de omvang van deze groep. DOEL Schatten van het aantal ouders van 18-64 jaar oud in Nederland met ernstige psychische aandoeningen, mede om het benodigde …
