The main aim of this study was to evaluate a new combination of test items on its practical use as a tool for determining the fundamental movement skills performance in 6- to 10-year old primary school children. This combination of tests should cover the different aspects of fundamental movement skills …

Bio-aromatics (benzene, toluene, xylenes, BTX) were prepared by the catalytic pyrolysis of six different black liquors using both in situ and ex situ approaches. A wide range of catalysts was screened and conditions were optimized in microscale reactors. Up to 7 wt % of BTX, based on the organic fraction …

AkzoNobel is a multinational sustainable company which makes paints, coatings and special chemicals. Hexahydrophthalic anhydride, phthalic anhydride and trimellitic anhydride are dangerous chemicals, because they can cause irritations and allergic reactions. These chemicals are often used in paint and …

From the article: The ‘Axiomatic Design Methodology’ uses ‘Axioms’ that cannot be proven nor derived from physical phenomena. The axioms serve as guidelines for the design process of products and systems. The latest contribution was the addition of the ‘Complexity Axiom’ in 1999. However, the underlying …

This project helps to reach the end goal of doing long distance measurements. Long distance measurements depends on the refractive index of air. The refractive index depends on temperature, pressure, humidity and gas mixture. The biggest uncertainty of calculating the refractive index is the temperature, …

There are several greenhouses built with solar panels integrated into the roof. In summer time this will operate very well, although broad shadow stripes can result in growth and yield differences. In winter the amount of sunlight is further limited by the solar panels and will result in further reduction …
