Molecular dynamics simulations and neural network solutions for applications in biophysics
(2022-12-01)
As computing resources evolved and became more accessible over time, much of scientific research shifted towards utilizing computational techniques. In particular, biophysics is a field of science that has continually ...
Design synthesis of NLMPC-based tracking controller for autonomous vehicles with active aerodynamic control
(2022-12-01)
The past three decades have witnessed extensive studies on tracking-control for autonomous vehicles (AVs). However, there is a lack of studies on effective design methods in this field. To tackle this problem, this thesis ...
Defect detection using 3D computed tomography images and application on nuclear power plants
(2022-12-01)
Tools used in nuclear power plant (NPP) inspection are required to be inspected before and after use on a reactor to check their integrity. To address the long duration required for manual inspection, non-destructive testing ...
Comparative economic analysis of conventional and plug-in battery electric vehicles in Canada
(2022-12-01)
Conventional vehicles typically use gasoline for their internal combustion engines (ICEs). On the other hand, plug-in battery electric vehicles (PBEVs) use electricity to charge their batteries, so they do not need gasoline. ...
Guiding pre-service teachers to making
(2022-12-01)
As our society becomes further driven by technology, schools need to consider adopting student-centered maker pedagogies that harness the capabilities of technology while disrupting traditional teacher-centered learning. ...
Virtual machine detection through Central Processing Unit (CPU) detail anomalies
(2022-12-01)
Malware analysts commonly use virtual machines to provide safe environments to study malware. Malware authors in response, include virtual machine detection functions in their malware so it changes its behavior should a ...
A comparative study of braille as a tactile orthography with the auditory orthography oval to teach reading to preliterate, English as an additional language, adult learners who have visual disabilities
(2022-12-01)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the affordances of the tactile orthography of braille in comparison with the newly developed auditory orthography of OVAL for teaching reading to preliterate, English as an ...
Development of a novel consensus-building methodology to design valid simulation-based medical education-supporting technologies
(2022-12-01)
Industry 4.0 has introduced new combinations of technologies that have the potential to revolutionize the way in which medical education, more specifically healthcare simulation, is delivered. However, the integration of ...
Negative emotion and eyewitness memory
(2022-12-01)
Witnessing or being the victim of a crime is often emotionally distressing, and this emotional distress reaction can influence the storage and retrieval of event-related memory. Eyewitness memory, therefore, cannot be ...
Raising the bar for password crackers: improving the quality of honeywords with deep neural networks
(2022-12-01)
Honeywords are fictitious passwords inserted into databases in order to identify password breaches. Producing honeywords that are difficult to distinguish from actual passwords automatically is a time-consuming and ...
