.NET/C# instrumentation for search-based software testing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)C# is one of the most widely used programming languages. However, to the best of our knowledge, there has been no work in the literature aimed at enabling search-based software testing techniques for applications running ... -
Developing simplified numerical calculation and BP neural network modeling for the cooling capacity in a radiant floor cooling system
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)To upgrade the computational efficiency and ensure the accuracy of calculated cooling capacity of radiant cooling floor, this study proposed a simplified three-dimensional modeling by combining with a user-defined function ... -
A machine learning-based viscoelastic–viscoplastic model for epoxy nanocomposites with moisture content
(Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering;, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In this work, we propose a deep learning (DL)-based constitutive model for investigating the cyclic viscoelastic-viscoplastic-damage behavior of nanoparticle/epoxy nanocomposites with moisture content. For this, a long ... -
Selection and Performance Prediction of a Pump as a Turbine for Power Generation Applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The high price of purpose-made turbines always represents an active challenge when utilizing pico- and micro-hydropower resources. Pumps as turbines (PATs) are a promising option to solve the problem. However, the selection ... -
Development of climatic damage predictive tool for timber facade moisture-related damage
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Development of the method for automated and adaptive assessment of mould growth in the timber frame facade is presented. A heat, air, and moisture (HAM) transport simulation using the open-source Python library HAMOPY ... -
Consent notices are obstructing my view”: Viewing sticky elements on responsive websites under the magnifying glass
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The practice of using consent notices on websites has received much criticism and attention among researchers. Much of the research has addressed unethical aspects of consent notices while less attention has been devoted ... -
To wrap or not to wrap? A study of how long words are split when reflowed on magnified web pages
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Many low-vision users adjust the browser zoom level to make text more comfortable to read. Responsive websites attempt to fit the content within the viewport width, but several types of problems can potentially occur; ... -
Can’t You Tell I am a Human? A Comparison of Common Text and Image CAPTCHAs Using a Low-Fidelity Methodology
(Chapter; Conference object, 2023)Many websites employ CAPTCHAs to limit web robot traffic. Al- though CAPTCHA challenges may improve security they come at the cost of reduced usability and accessibility. This study set out to explore users’ performance ... -
Towards Safe Encounters between Pedestrians and Autonomous Driverless Vehicles: Comparing Adults and Children's Perceptions of External Human Machine Interface Design Features
(Chapter; Conference object, 2023)Recent developments in autonomous vehicle technologies have raised questions about how to achieve efficient communication between pedestrians and autonomous vehicles. External Human Machine Interfaces (eHMI) have been ... -
Human Experts’ Perceptions of Auto-Generated Summarization Quality
(Chapter; Conference object, 2023)In this study we addressed automatic summarizations generated us- ing modern artificial intelligence techniques. Several mathematical methods for evaluating the performance of automatic summariza- tion exist. Such methods ... -
Bruk av digitale verktøy i kjemiundervisningen
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Mange studieretninger har grunnemner innen matematikk, fysikk, kjemi og statistikk som del av studieprogrammet. Erfaringsmessig er det vanskelig å motivere studenter i disse fagene som for mange kun blir støttefag. Disse ... -
Can master students’ experience and learning outcome, be improved?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Most studies on the follow-up and supervision of students, are focused on Ph.D. level, despite that most students complete their education with bachelor’s or master’s degrees. In a previous study on students working with ... -
Community based digital teaching
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)A common approach to digital teaching is to mimic the classical lecturing in a physical classroom. There are limits to how successful this approach might be in helping students to reach the learning outcomes. However, ... -
JavaScript SBST Heuristics to Enable Effective Fuzzing of NodeJS Web APIs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)JavaScript is one of the most popular programming languages. However, its dynamic nature poses several challenges to automated testing techniques. In this paper, we propose an approach and open-source tool support to enable ... -
Adaptive learning with artificial barriers yielding Nash equilibria in general games
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2003)Artificial barriers in Learning Automata (LA) is a powerful and yet under-explored concept although it was first pro- posed in the 1980s. Introducing artificial non-absorbing barriers makes the LA schemes resilient to ... -
Cognitive Robotics - Towards the Development of Next-Generation Robotics and Intelligent Systems
