Evidence-based safety education and training for traffic injury prevention by Abbas Motevalian (338825)

“…Bicycle skill training for children and youth may increase their safety knowledge, but not necessarily improve their behavior or decrease their injury rates. Non-legislative interventions were found effective for increasing observed helmet use among bicyclists. …”

Moments-based computation of intermodulation distortion of RF circuits by Tannir, Dani

“…Linearity is one of the main design requirements for RF circuits, and one of the main figures of merit used to measure linearity is the third-order intercept point (IP3). However, obtaining the IP3 using traditional harmonic balance simulation requires multitone inputs, which significantly increases the computational costs. …”

How does an imaginary persona's attractiveness affect designers' perceptions and IT solutions? An experimental study on users' remote working needs by Joni Salminen (7434770)

“…For example, there may be contexts where it is helpful that the personas be attractive; there may be contexts where the attractiveness of the personas is unimportant or even a distraction.</p><h3>Practical implications</h3><p dir="ltr">The findings point to the need to incorporate hedonic qualities into the persona creation process. …”

Childhood bereavement by Ayyash-Abdo, Huda

“…Nowadays children are increasingly exposed to death in their environment. The literature indicates that bereaved children make up a vulnerable population; they are at risk of developing psychological and behavioural dysfunctions as well as social difficulties. …”

Ionic Liquid Engineering in Perovskite Photovoltaics by Li, Liang

“…Among other important details, debate surrounding their proneness to surface degradation and poor mechanical robustness, as well as the environmental footprint of this materials class remains a moot point. The application of ionic liquids appears as one of the potential remedies to some of these challenges due to their high conductivity, the opportunities for chemical ‘tuning’ of the structure, and relatively lower environmental footprint. …”

Frost Growth on Vertical Surfaces with Varying Wettability by El Cheikh, Amne

“…Frosting occurs on heat exchangers in heat pumping and refrigeration applications when the surface temperature of the heat exchanger is below the freezing point of water. The accumulation of frost on the heat transfer surface increases pressure drop (fan power) and decreases heat transfer, because the frost layer has a low thermal conductivity much lower than that of the heat exchanger material, and it blocks the air flow. …”

On the effects of user ratings on the profitability of cloud services by Taghavi, Mona

“…The results show that improvement in ratings is mostly profitable for highly rated providers. The surprising point is that providers having low ratings do not get much benefit from increasing their average ratings, meanwhile, they can perform well when they lower the service price.…”

Assessment of Various Dry Photovoltaic Cleaning Techniques and Frequencies on the Power Output of CdTe-Type Modules in Dusty Environments by Mohammed Al-Housani (18147607)

“…However, due to the increased cost of adding a vacuum cleaner, the microfiber-based wiper is the most efficient method when both cost and improvement rates are considered. …”

Explanatory Sequential Study of Teachers’ and Students’ Perceptions of Inclusion Provisions for Students with ASD in High Schools in Dubai by ALSHUAIBAT, SUHA MOHAMMAD

“…On the other hand, it shows from a very positive point of view how inclusion can be easily achieved in all kinds of materials if teachers and peers help out with their participatory efforts. …”

Optimized group owner selection in WiFi direct networks by Jahed, K.

“…The relatively new WiFi-Direct standard allows devices to communicate directly over the well established IEEE 802.11 protocol without the need for an intermediate access point. The increased range and bandwidth advantage of WiFi-Direct over existing short-range technologies such as Bluetooth and Zigbee allows a whole new class of applications to benefit from cooperation. …”

ROS-Mediated Autophagic Death in Glioblastoma Cells Upon Treatment by Human Recombinant Arginase I (Co)- PEG5000 [HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000] by Abdel Khalek, Maya

“…Secondly, the results also showed in both U251 and A172 cells, an increase in the percentage of the survival of cells co-treated with HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000 and chloroquine; indicating that autophagy is contributing to cell death at late time points in GBM cells. …”

Hybrid effect of carbon nanotubes and polypropylene microfibers on fire resistance, thermal characteristics and microstructure of cementitious composites by Mohammad R. Irshidat (8047913)

“…The improvement was less significant in the case of exposure temperatures greater than melting point of the fibers. Thermal conductivity of cement mortar is increased by the addition of the CNTs but not the PP fibers for all heating levels. …”

Targeting acute myeloid leukemia cells with novel photosensitive ruthenium-based metal-organic compounds. (c2015) by Azar, Daniel Fadi

“…The cytotoxic effect of L-II was shown to occur at earlier time points than that of Ru-II, although maximum effect for both was reached at 72h, possibly indicating a simpler mechanism of cytotoxicity in the ligand. …”
