Modified wavelet-based pulse width modulation technique for cascaded H-bridge multilevel converter
(2023-08-01)
Power electronics (PE) converters are crucial for providing a cost-effective, reliable, and efficient solutions for integrating renewable energy sources (RES) into the electrical grid. Over the years, many converter ...
Detector positioning in a field-deployable limited-angle gamma ray emission tomography system
(2023-08-01)
Imaging techniques have been part of the medical and industrial fields for more than a century due to their simple use in the inspection of internal parameters without sample damage. These methods take advantage of the ...
Effects of the geometric modifications on the shear layer excitation source in co-axial side branches
(2023-08-01)
This comprehensive study delves into the interaction between shear layer oscillations and the acoustic field within co-axial cavities, spotlighting the efficacy of the sound source model as a reliable semi-empirical modeling ...
The perceived effectiveness of various forms of feedback on the acquisition of technical skills by advanced learners in simulation-based health professions education
(2023-08-01)
Simulation-based health professions education is valuable for healthcare professionals to develop technical skills. However, little research has explored the effectiveness of augmented versus intrinsic feedback for advanced ...
Examining the effects of embodiment on performance and learning of drilling actions using pseudo-haptics and standard computer equipment
(2023-08-01)
Psychomotor skills training within virtual learning environments are limited due to the need for expensive haptic devices to simulate haptic cues. While pseudo-haptics presents an accessible and cost-effective alternative ...
Intention prediction of pedestrians in challenging weather conditions using deep learning
(2023-08-01)
Assisted and automated driving vehicles have received massive attention over the past few years from the research community to make our roads safer. In this thesis, we introduce a framework for predicting the intention of ...
Acknowledging offender trauma at intake: a qualitative thematic analysis of Canadian correctional policy
(2023-08-01)
Trauma has seldom been discussed in the literature in relation to incarceration. The research that does exist has tended to be gendered, focusing predominantly on the trauma experiences of female offenders. The current ...
Dual-task interference and its influence on deception detection and memory
(2023-08-01)
Using a dual-task paradigm, I examined how engaging in executive function tasks impacted deception detection and memory performance. University students (N = 185) were randomly assigned to detect deception while also ...
Exploring the impacts of media use in the classroom and trauma
(2023-08-01)
Research has repeatedly shown that media can create trauma responses in viewers, but little has explored how classroom-based media can adversely affect students’ wellbeing. There is a significant gap in trauma-informed ...
Gloss positioning for a gaze aware L2 reading aid
(2023-08-01)
An important aspect of language learning is reading texts written in the learner’s second language (L2). However, reading can be a daunting task for language learners, as text may contain a large amount of unknown vocabulary. ...
