For the future circular economy, renewable carbon feedstocks manifest considerable promise for synthesizing sustainable and biodegradable polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA). In this study, 16 wt% and 30 wt% PHA (cell dry weight) are respectively produced by thermophilic Caldimonas thermodepolymerans from beechwood …

abstract REducing Delay through edUcation on eXacerbations (REDUX) shows promise in reducing exacerbation recognition and action delays for chronic lung diseases in the Netherlands. However, factors influencing its successful implementation in China remain unclear. To identify the perceived factors influencing …

This thesis explores how the problem of players wanting to test out and practice the mechanics they were taught in the tutorial can be solved. The objective of this research was to discover how AI can be used to increase user engagement in this Naval Warfare game, resulting in more interest in Thales …

Background: Despite trends towards greater professionalisation of the nursing profession and an improved public image in certain countries, studies also show that large proportions of the public still do not fully appreciate nurses’ competencies. Mapping differences in the societal and professional recognition …

Innovating physical products can be seen as systems engineering at a higher abstraction level. It spans multiple domains and focuses not on developing the product, but realising the complete innovation. In our new approach, we focus on the four most important domains of physical product innovation: market, …

PURPOSE: Malnutrition is frequent in hospitalized patients and is related to functional decline and poorer clinical outcomes. The Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) is a globally implemented malnutrition tool. We aimed to perform a linguistic and content validation of the translation …

Melt electrowriting (MEW) enables precise scaffold fabrication for biomedical applications. With a limited number of processable materials with short and tunable degradation times, polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) present an interesting option. Here, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) and …

Presentation of an Alpha version of a Structured Process Framework for Digital Servitization. This framework is co-developed with practical experts during 2 years of action research involving 8 SMEs in the manufacturing industry. The framework is based on process models on servitization and business …

Research on interprofessional identity using the Extended Professional Identity Theory (EPIT) has shown promising results in measuring this identity, predicting interprofessional collaboration, and improving team outcomes. However, EPIT-based interprofessional identity has not been studied in Türkiye …

Urban densification is promoted for sustainable urban growth, yet it also generates concerns about negative health impacts on local citizens. Engaging local citizens in the co-design of densification projects is therefore crucial to address their needs and concerns. The use of immersive Virtual Reality …
