Fuel cell hybrid vehicles are believed to provide a solution to cut down emissions in the long term. They provide local zero-emission propulsion and when the hydrogen as fuel is derived from renewable energy sources, fuel cell hybrids enable well-to-wheel zero-emission transportation, …

The objective of an energy management strategy for fuel cell hybrid propulsion systems is to minimize the fuel needed to provide the required power demand. This minimization is defined as an optimization problem. Methods such as dynamic programming numerically solve this optimization problem. Strategies …

An existing fuel cell hybrid distribution truck, built for demonstration purposes, is used as a case study to investigate the effect of stack (kW) and battery (kW, kWh) sizes on the hydrogen consumption of the vehicle. Three driving cycles, the NEDC for Low Power vehicles, CSC and JE05 cycle, define …

Achtergrond: De concept jeugdversie van de PsyMot (PsyMot-J) is een diagnostisch instrument om psychomotorisch functioneren van jeugdigen in de leeftijd van twaalf tot achttien jaar in kaart te brengen en tot passende behandeldoelstellingen te komen. Het instrument is recent beschikbaar gekomen en is …

Burgers moeten van de overheid meer zelf doen en elkaar helpen. Dat vraagt een andere werkwijze van beroepskrachten in welzijn en maatschappelijke dienstverlening. Het gaat bijvoorbeeld om coachen naar werk van mensen die dat op eigen kracht niet kunnen. Ook moeten de betrokken beroepskrachten - in het …

A driving cycle defines the speed profile as requirement for a propulsion systems or vehicles. As a single driving cycle can hardly be considered representative for all situations a vehicle will experience, attempts are made to classify driving cycles, using techniques as fuzzy logic, statistics and …

Fuel cell hybrid power trains comprise an energy storage to supply peaks in the power demand and to facilitate regenerative braking. In terms of control systems, the presence of storage provides additional freedom to minimize the vehicle’s fuel consumption. In a previous paper [1] an analytical solution …

OBJECTIVE: Ever since Engel's Biopsychosocial Model (1977) emotions, thoughts, beliefs and behaviors are accepted as important factors of health. The Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (Brief IPQ) assesses these beliefs. Aim of this study was to cross-culturally adapt the Brief IPQ into the Brief …

In dit document wordt een onderzoek omschreven, waar studenten met behulp van een microblog applicatie genaamd Hootcourse, berichten naar elkaar kunnen versturen welke worden weergegeven op een zogenoemde backchannel. De backchannel is een sociale constructie opgesteld aan de hand van een beamer en projectiescherm. …

Ymere and the city Almere will in the next ten years develop the residential area Almere Hout Noord. The ambitious targets of this area is a CO2 neutral and energy independent neighborhood with an EPC demand of 0,4. Because of the area's limitations an investigation into air source heat pumps was needed …
