Determining thermal comfort in built environment using computational fluid dynamics simulations
(2017-06)
In this thesis, three-dimensional time-dependent Thermal Comfort (TC) conditions in an occupied room is investigated and determined. The room is considered with furniture of varying materials (i.e. steel, wood, etc.) and ...
Optimization and analysis of WLAN RF energy harvesting system architecture for low power wireless applications
(2017-01)
The presented work proposes a radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting circuit design, which scavenges energy from WLAN dual frequency band. In comparison to other available sources for energy scavenging, e.g. solar, wind ...
Vulnerability of speaker verification system under replay spoofing attack and investigation of synthetic speech detection
(2016-05)
Security issues have become major subject along with developments in the speaker verification system. Previous studies have shown that performance is still not fully proven for vulnerability. Simple and easy methods may ...

The challenge of negotiation in the game of diplomacy
(Springer Nature, 2019)
The game of Diplomacy has been used as a test case for complex automated negotiations for a long time, but to date very few successful negotiation algorithms have been implemented for this game. We have therefore decided ...
One too many categories: an experimental test on the effectiveness of a dual-identity recategorization intervention on age-based bias
(Elsevier, 2014-12)
A laboratory experiment was conducted on a convenient sample of N = 724 introductory Psychology students from the southeastern United States, to test the effectiveness of a dual identity recategorization intervention when ...
Severe tests in neuroimaging: what we can learn and how we can learn it
(University of Chicago Press, 2014)
Considerable methodological difficulties abound in neuroimaging and several philosophers of science have recently called into question the potential of neuroimaging studies to contribute to our knowledge of human cognition. ...
Interaction between free-stream turbulence and tip-vortices of wind turbine blades with and without winglets
(IOP Publishing, 2018)
Experimental investigations of the free-stream turbulence impact on the tip-vortices generated in wind turbine blades have been performed. The investigation is done by exposing an efficient laboratory scale wind turbine ...
