In this study data-feedback in a cyclic model of data-driven teaching was used to enhance the teaching behavior of students registered in a master course for teachers. Differences between pre- and post-test measures in a simple one-group pre-test post-tests design proved to be significant with effect …

Objective. There are no Dutch language disease-specific questionnaires for patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome available that could help Dutch physiotherapists to assess and monitor these symptoms and functional limitations. The aim of this study was to translate the original disease-specific …

For long flights, the cruise is the longest phase and where the largest amount of fuel is consumed. An in-cruise optimization method has been implemented to calculate the optimal trajectory that reduces the flight cost. A three-dimensional grid has been created, coupling lateral navigation and vertical …

A multilayer scheme is here proposed to implement coordinated control of a group of mobile robots. Specifically, a trajectory tracking controller is proposed to coordinately guide a platoon of robots, with an obstacle deviation subsystem based on virtual forces and mechanical impedance implemented in …

When treating cancer by radiation therapy it is always the goal to irradiate the tumour as much as possible and to spare the healthy tissue around it. For this a new type of radiation therapy called Volumetric Modulated ARC Therapy (VMAT) has been developed. During VMAT treatment the radiation machine …

A new gravitation wave observatory is being built in Japan. This facility is a big Michelson interferometer where the mirrors and sensors will be made cryogenic down to 4 K. The problem is that: the heat cannot be transported out of the mirror by its surroundings because the whole system is in an ultra-high …

The treatment of tumours in cancer patients have become more advanced and thus more complex. The verification of the dose distribution, calculated by clinical physicists, have thus become more complicated. VSL has started the development on measurements of absolute dose distributions in an antrhopomorphic …

Research is done on the properties of a niobium superconducting magnetic shield sample (see image below this abstract), its magnetic attenuation; and behaviour around the transition temperature 9.25 K. The attenuation of the magnetic shield sample was measured in a cryogenic setup. This is required to …

Path tracking driver models assume the observed path deviation ahead of the vehicle to be proportionally transferred to a corrective steering input. The most simple version of such a model includes three parameters, a single preview distance, a steering gain and a delay time, being examined in this paper, …

We assessed how golfers cope with the commonly observed systematic overshoot errors in the perception of the direction between the ball and the hole. Experiments 1 and 2, in which participants were required to rotate a pointer such that it pointed to the center of the hole, showed that errors in perceived …
