Dit onderzoek maakt deel uit van een overkoepelend onderzoek, met als doel normwaarden te creëren voor de Steep Ramp Test om het meten van de cardiorespiratoire fitheid toegankelijker te maken in de eerste lijn. In dit onderzoek wordt de invloed van de kracht van de bovenbenen op de Steep Ramp test onderzocht. Doel: …

Traditioneel zijn krachttrainingsprogramma's gebaseerd op weerstandsoefeningen waarbij stimulatie wordt geboden door zwaartekracht. De effectiviteit van deze methoden wordt echter beperkt door minder activering tijdens de excentrische fase. Naar aanleiding van het positieve effect van excentrisch trainen …

For this research the main objective is to understand the effect fire would have on biocrete, as well as optimizing the amount of Miscanthus fibres into the mixture to make biocrete that is still strong enough for internal walls, as well as sub-research objectives that will be researched and accomplished …

Most world governments are concerned with waste disposal. The large accumulation of these waste items is causing environmental and monetary issues. According to (Awuchi, 2019), the predicted average daily production of plastic waste is 15.4 billion pieces. Plastic waste is the most prevalent form of …

The focus of this research is to optimize the bio-concrete mixture design containing natural plant-based fibres as well as to investigate and describe the properties of the developed materials. The main goal of the project is to produce a bio-concrete design that is sufficient to be used as an insulation …

The project for the former industrial HaCas-Verschuren site in Tilburg is a case study of a biobased transformation, which will turn a polluted environment into a paradise for living. The organic regeneration of the site requires a long-time span, which is also used for a long-term strategy to grow natural …

Pavements are used everywhere, and are of a major importance in the infrastructure. However, conditions for which these pavements are designed for and built in are rapidly changing due to climate change. The trends observed in the Netherlands suggest a maximum temperature increase of 3 degrees Celsius …

The aim of this research was to find out if Mycelium has the ability to replace stones in a roman arch bridge structure, by setting up the appropriate laboratory tests and by conducting a desk research to help identifying the best substrate out of the three substrates picked that will produce mycelium …

The forthcoming research justification renders a lengthy explanation of how Somitra B.V. can bridge the gap between potential customers and their product solution within the German market. Somitra B.V. aims to determine the viability of their product "Smart Water Meters" directly with potential customers …

Inleiding: De cardiorespiratoire fitheid (CRF) is een goede voorspeller voor de algemene gezondheid en het risico op morbiditeit en mortaliteit. [1] De CRF van een persoon bestaat niet alleen uit hart- en longfunctie, maar ook uit spierkracht. [2] De Steep Ramp Test (SRT) is een korte maximale inspanningstest …
