| CircAdapt | CircAdapt is a mathematical model of the human heart and circulation. It enables real-time simulation of cardiovascular system dynamics in a wide variety of physiological and pathophysiological situations. The entire cardiovascular system is modelled as a concatenation of modules representing cardiac chambers, valves, blood vessels, and peripheral vascular beds. A unique feature of the CircAdapt model is that it includes structural adaptation of the vascular and myocardial tissues to the mechanical load generated by the model itself. | The CircAdapt model enables simulation of blood pressures, volumes, and flows in heart and circulation on a beat-to-beat basis. Initially, this model was designed for teaching purposes, showing the importance of the physical laws of mechanics and fluid dynamics in understanding cardiovascular physiology. While designing the model, the developers have paid serious attention to the maintenance of the following properties: The model is easy to use; The simulations are realistic; The principles used are based on physics and physiology; The number of parameters is limited; and Modification to pathology is easy. Therefore, the model is composed of recognizable modules, such as heart chambers, valves, blood vessel tubes and peripheral microcirculations. In a first simulation, the whole model works, but mechanical load in the different cardiac and vascular tissues is unevenly distributed. Tissues are known to have long-term adaptive properties, forcing the tissues to adapt size and structure so that local mechanical load is normalized. The modules in the CircAdapt model can adapt their own geometry so that mechanical load in the constituting tissue becomes physiological. Thus, each module's geometry is self-generating, resulting in a substantial parameter reduction. Currently, simulations appear so realistic and the CircAdapt model structure is so flexible and versatile that CircAdapt is successfully used for fundamental research in the field of cardiovascular (patho)physiology. Inclusion of adaptation makes the model very promising in predicting long-term effects of pathology and clinical interventions. CircAdapt may therefore also be a valuable tool for clinical specialists. |

| MatLab CRP | Toolbox containing Matlab® routines for computing recurrence plots, cross/ joint recurrence plots and related problems. | The CRP Toolbox for Matlab® allows for the creation of recurrence plots (RPs) as well as cross and joint recurrence plots (CRPs/ JRPs). It provides the most up-to-date quantification analysis of RPs, CRPs and JRPs (RQA), which includes the new measures of complexity as LAM and TT. Moreover, a time scale alignment tool based on CRPs is available. Further useful tools and methods of nonlinear time series analysis and data preparation are provided: - ACE - estimation of optimal transformations and maximal correlation; - AR parameter estimation via Yule-Walker method; - Fast multi-dimensional histogram estimation; - Phase space tools (parameters, size, visualisation; - Transformation of the data distribution to a desired distribution; - Windowed plot of statistical parameters; The toolbox can be used by a comfortable graphical user interface as well as on commandline (e.g. for batch computations). Note developer: Starting with Release R2014b, Matlab contains significant changes that is causing some problems for running the CRP Toolbox in new Matlab versions. We have tried to fix several serious issues and provide an updated CRP Toolbox (R29.0) that might be mainly compatible to the Matlab releases starting with R2014b. However, due to a new but less efficient handling of objects within Matlab R2014b, the speed of some functions of the CRP Toolbox will be lowered by a factor up to 10(!). We have not yet found a good solution to speed up the code (the problem is not the implementation of the CRP Toolbox but in some Matlab internal functions related to the object handling). At the moment it is strongly recommend to use Matlab versions up to release R2014a and to avoid R2014b (and later). |

| Tiaplus | TiaPlus is the solution for test and item analysis. | The basic assumption underlying TiaPlus is the central equation of the Classical Test Theory from which many statistics are derived that TiaPlus calculates. TiaPlus is geared towards complete designs in which all persons provide item answers to all items, but it can handle a modest amount of missing values, i.e., persons not answering one or more items. Approximately 10% or 15% missing answers are tolerable. The programm can work with multiple item keys. The programm offers multiple things, for example DIF (item bias) analysis (both numerical (Mantel-Haenszel) and graphical), a graphical display of empiricial item response curves and the Greatest Lower Bound coefficient. Finally, the programma can transform total test scores to T-scores, IQ-scores and Dutch numerical grades. |
| Transana lab | software for the qualitative analysis of video, audio, still image, and text data | Transana can be used to transcribe digital audio and video material. It also makes a direct link between the original material and the transcript.

The clips can then be arranged in various ways and saved in sets, and the program also allows the user to map the relationship between the various keywords. This allows the user to optimize research data management, and to ëexplore the data in various ways. Transana facilitates the sharing of analysed data with colleagues and / or fellow students, allowing joint analysis. (VU) |

| Urkund | A fully automated system for handling plagiarism. | Urkund offers a fully automated system for handling plagiarism. Students send their documents to their teachers by e-mail. Along the electronic route between the student and the teacher, the documents will be compared with three central source areas: internet, published material and material of the students. If a document displays similarities with the content of one of these three sources, Urkund will flag the document for possible plagiarism. An analysis view will be sent to the teacher by mail. In this analysis, the teacher can see a simplified overview of the information and determine whether there is plagiarism. Urkunf is integrated in Brightspace (under Activities). |
