Examining the affordances and constraints of using infographics in pre-service teacher education
(2018-04-13)
Infographics are a communication tool that can be used to share large amounts of data in a more aesthetically pleasing and understandable way. The production and consumption of infographics encourages students to develop ...
Analyzing the impact of BYOD in secondary school English classrooms
(2018-08-01)
There is limited research on Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) programs. This study explored the impact of a BYOD program on secondary school students’ engagement, learning process, and learning performance in English classrooms. ...
Implementation of power electronics in nuclear power plants: DC electrical system conceptual design and its financial analysis
(2018-05-01)
A Power Electronic (PE) device is a semiconductor-based device which enable many advanced conversion of electricity which have been used widely in many industries. Due to the recent development in both circuit design and ...
Passive damping mechanism of Herschel-Quincke tubes for pressure pulsations in piping systems
(2018-12-01)
The acoustic pressure pulsations in industrial piping systems can induce fluctuating loads on inline equipment which may cause fatigue failure and in severe cases, initiate a phenomenon known as acoustic resonance. Passive ...
Design and analysis of an active underbody aerodynamic device for tractor trailers
(2018-04-01)
At highway speeds, up to 65 % of the total energy used by large trucks is for overcoming aerodynamic drag. The underbody region of a tractor-trailer is responsible for up to 30 % of the aerodynamic drag on tractor-trailers, ...
Development and investigation of an ammonia synthesis reactor
(2018-08-01)
Ammonia production has gained increasing attention in the last decade due to its importance as a feedstock and an energy carrier. In the present thesis study, two novel ammonia production systems are presented. The first ...
Design and verification of situation-aware real-time systems
(2018-12-01)
A real-time system (RTS) is usually well-defined and operates based on a specific model defined during system design. However, the RTS can interact with different objects from its environment and needs to satisfy a number ...
High-speed lateral stability analysis of articulated heavy vehicles using driver-in-the-loop real time simulation
(2018-04-01)
High-speed testing procedures for evaluating the lateral stability of multi-trailer articulated heavy vehicles (MTAHV) include the use of both an open-loop and a closed-loop maneuvers as specified in ISO-14791. The standard ...
