PURPOSE: To determine and compare the origin of the external surface reflections produced by commonly used intraocular lenses (IOLs). METHODS: The specular reflection taking place at the anterior surface of eight types of IOLs (IOL power = 22.00 diopters M ...
Identifying multitarget impurities on contact lenses is challenging because traditional methods such as polymerase chain reaction cannot be used on the unknown target. Other sampling methods often require expensive antibodies or dyes. Therefore, this resea ...
We investigate the consequences of a peaceful shift of power from one social group to another. Theoretically, we show that an individual’s decision to stay put or migrate depends on the difference between the political preferences of groups and the change ...
The lack of freshwater in many countries pushes authorities to utilize desalination units. Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) have shown promising results to provide the power to establish a multi-generation system using hydrogen as a renewable source. In this ...
Problem. In the field of sustainability, scholars and policy-makers herald the transformative power of participation in transdisciplinary (TD) research. The increasing use of TD in science policy is rooted in the expectation that involving practitioners in ...
Power is involved when researchers and practitioners work together in transdisciplinary sustainability research. Among other things, this has implications regarding who gets to decide which research questions are dealt with and which partners are involved, ...
The purpose of this semester project is to move in 3D space the gripper to grab an object, move it and release it. To do so a cartesian 3D printer will be used to move the gripper. Some modifications needs to be done in order to install the gripper at the ...
In sustainability research, transdisciplinary (TD) approaches that involve practitioners in the research process have emerged as promising tools for enhancing real-world knowledge and engendering societal change. However, empirical insights into how such p ...
Osmotic power generation, the extraction of power from mixing salt solutions of different concentrations, can provide an efficient power source for both nanoscale and industrial-level applications. Power is generated using ion-selective channels or pores o ...
Problem statement. The rise of sustainability as a guiding norm for societal development also affects knowledge production in science. Particularly in the context of sustainability science, researchers are increasingly confronted with claims for creating s ...
