Benders decomposition to solve integrated production and preventive maintenance planning problems Ghent University
We consider an optimization problem that models the integrated production and preventive maintenance planning at the tactical level in a manufacturing system. Along the same lines as in the recent models, which were proposed for this planning problem, this integration is carried out via available production capacity. This model in particular, considers explicitly the fact that the degradation of the machine takes place only when this latter is ...
BeadNet University of Antwerp
Spherical markers are commonly used by phantombased calibration methods for X-ray CT systems. Defining the position of the marker centers is therefore crucial to estimate the geometry parameters accurately. Although marker bearing structures are often built from materials of low X-ray attenuation, they still overlap with the marker in projection images. This complicates accurate determination of the marker centers. In this work, we explore the ...
Comparison of three anaesthetic protocols in Bennett's wallabies (Macropus rufogriseus) Ghent University
Response by Benetos et al to letter regarding article, 'Hypertension management in older and frail older patients' Ghent University
Environment‐dependent population dynamics emerging from dynamic energy budgets and individual‐scale movement behaviour Ghent University
Individual biology influences environment-dependent population dynamics through life history. Population models that consider individual physiology are therefore popular for modelling dynamics under various environments. In recent years, a quantitative framework integrating metabolic theory (dynamic energy budget theory) into individual-based models (DEB-IBMs) has emerged to investigate the link from individual physiology to demography. However, ...

A traditional Benders’ approach to sports timetabling Ghent University
A pilot study into bosentan (Tracleer®) as an immunomodulating agent in patients with Behçet's disease Vrije Universiteit Brussel
BACKGROUND: Behçet's disease (BD) is an auto-inflammatory vasculitis characterized by aphthous oro-genital ulcers, inflammatory skin changes and uveitis. Treatment is mainly immunosuppressive. Interestingly, elevated endotheline-1 (ET-1) levels suggest a possible beneficial effect of treatment with an ET-1 receptor antagonist.
OBJECTIVE: The aim of our study was to investigate the possible beneficial effect of the ET-1 inhibitor ...
