(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In this paper, we examine the policy documents that define the Nor-wegian policies on language use in the public sector, with an emphasis on how ICT is mentioned as a tool for creating a public sector language citizens ... -
A review of wearable technologies for elderly care that can accurately track indoor position, recognize physical activities and monitor vital signs in real time
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Rapid growth of the aged population has caused an immense increase in the demand for healthcare services. Generally, the elderly are more prone to health problems compared to other age groups. With effective monitoring and ... -
A Semi-empirical Approach Based on Genetic Programming for the Study of Biophysical Controls on Diameter-Growth of Fagus orientalis in Northern Iran
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper examines the possible ecological controls on the diameter increment of oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) in a high altitude forest in northern Iran. The main objectives of the study are computer-generated ... -
A Semi-Heuristic Process-Reaction Curve PID Controller Tuning Method
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)A simple semi-heuristic method for designing PID controllers for time constant models are shown to be close to optimal. A Process-Reaction Curve method is proposed, composed by a method for approximating stable time constant ... -
A Sensor Fusion Algorithm for Filtering Pyrometer Measurement Noise in the Czochralski Crystallization Process
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)The Czochralski (CZ) crystallization process is used to produce monocrystalline silicon for solar cell wafers and electronics. Tight temperature control of the molten silicon is most important for achieving high crystal ... -
A Simultaneous and Continuous Excitation Method for High-Speed Electrical Impedance Tomography with Reduced Transients and Noise Sensitivity.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This paper presents a concept for soft field tomographic scan of all the projections of electromagnetic waves emanating from an array of electrodes. Instead of the sequential excitation of all pairs of electrodes in the ... -
A solution method for one-dimensional shallow water equations using flux limiter centered scheme for open Venturi channels
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The one-dimensional shallow water equations were modified for a Venturi contraction and expansion in a rectangular open channel to achieve more accurate results than with the conventional one-dimensional shallow water ... -
A spherical-plot solution to linking acceleration metrics with animal performance, state, behaviour and lifestyle
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Background: We are increasingly using recording devices with multiple sensors operating at high frequencies to produce large volumes of data which are problematic to interpret. A particularly challenging example comes from ... -
