• How extreme environments can impact the training of industrial operators 

      Manca, Davide; Nazir, Salman; Komulainen, Tiina M.; Øvergård, Kjell Ivar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Extreme environments, either natural or artificial, can greatly affect the effectiveness and safety of operators. Scope of the paper is to provide a rather detailed list of extreme working environments and the effects ...
    • A methodology for building a data-enclosing tunnel for automated online-feedback in simulator training 

      Marcano, Laura; Manca, Davide; Yazidi, Anis; Komulainen, Tiina M. (Computers and Chemical Engineering;Volume 132, 4 January 2020, 106621, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-21)
      Extensive research confirms that feedback is the key to an effective training. However, in many domains, human trainers, who can provide feedback to trainees, are considered not only a costly but also a scarce resource. ...
