Abbott Elementary’s principal Ava Coleman - a contrast for Black female administrators
(2022-11-01)
Using Mikos’ (2014) film analysis technique, the role of Ava Coleman in the mockumentary sitcom Abbott Elementary is dissected and contrasted to the researched experiences of Black women principals. The research on Black ...
Incorporating digital play into scientific inquiry
(2022-12-01)
Play and inquiry have been recognised as effective facets of learning science (Vartiainen et al., 2020). Several researchers have highlighted the importance of incorporating digital play into K-12 students’ science education ...
Fidelity in simulation-based training in diverse professions: a proposed taxonomy
(2022-10-01)
This paper examines the concept of fidelity within simulation-based training (SBT) across multiple professional fields. This paper: develops a taxonomy to classify tasks trained via SBT across diverse professional fields; ...
The analysis of the entomological and chemical decomposition of human remains to ultimately assess the viability of the domestic pig as a substitute in forensic applications
(2022-09-01)
Death investigations often rely on the minimum post mortem interval (minPMI) estimations provided by forensic entomologists. The models accepted by courts in Canada are not based on research involving humans but rather on ...
Flow characteristics and acoustic resonance excitation of finned cylinders in cross-flow
(2022-12-01)
The flow characteristics and acoustic resonance excitation of bare and finned cylinders of different arrangements in cross-flow were experimentally investigated. In the design phase of finned tube heat exchangers, finned ...
Optimized clean hydrogen production using nuclear small modular reactor and concentrated solar power as a renewable energy source
(2022-12-01)
According to current predictions, hydrogen will serve as a key fuel and energy source by decreasing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In this research an integral Pressurized Water Reactor-type Small Modular Reactor (iPWR-type ...
A novel deep learning architecture and large-scale benchmark for robust object detection in traffic surveillance and analysis
(2022-12-01)
Upstream technologies such as traffic surveillance provide helpful information to downstream intelligent transportation systems intending to improve the safety, mobility, and efficiency of road-users whilst reducing their ...
Anodic alcohol fuel cell reactions at platinum active sites on doped metal oxide supports
(2022-12-01)
Fuel cells produce electrical energy via chemical reactions, which take place on the carbon supported platinum catalyst (Pt/C). As attractive as these devices may seem, their practicality is often limited by the functionality ...
Incremental learning algorithm for anomaly detection applied to computed tomography scans in nuclear industry
(2022-12-01)
During routine nuclear power plant (NPP) inspection, each maintenance tool is inspected manually before and after use on a nuclear reactor. This could result in long inspection duration (up to months), time, and resource ...
Manipulator’s configuration design, excavation path generation, and underground object detection for an autonomous electric excavator
(2022-12-01)
Construction is an industrial sector that requires high labor costs and is exposed to harsh and hazardous environmental conditions. As a solution to these problems, an autonomous excavator is expected in high demand. To ...
