To bio or not to bio - Research into the characteristics and applications of insulation materials with a low environmental impact Ghent University
Responsible handling of the use of building materials is essential in reducing related CO2 emissions, resource depletion and waste generation.
The TETRA research project "To bio or not to bio" aims to bring together and compile information on the characteristics and applications of insulation materials to give more confidence to the construction industry to start working with these materials. The focus is on both classically known and ...

Bluetooth Low Energy Performance Analysis and Optimization in Environments with Interference KU Leuven
As a representative of low-power and low-range wireless communication protocols, Bluetooth Low Energy has been used more and more in various devices and applications. It is a wireless protocol defined in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, which is a license-free frequency band shared by many communication protocols. As a result, Bluetooth Low Energy is affected by the interference in this frequency band. In general, the interference for Bluetooth ...

The relationship between the physical environment and mental health in older adults with a low socio-economic status Ghent University
Almost one out of six older adults (≥ 65 years) suffers from poor mental health and this is even higher among older adults with a low socio-economic status (SES). Mental health is determined by individual and environmental factors. The physical environment (e.g., presence of greenery, pedestrian infrastructure, traffic safety) is particularly relevant for older adults’ mental health and even more so for older adults with a low SES. However, ...
