“…<h3>Purpose</h3><p dir="ltr">To investigate the effects of placebo (PLA), 20 min nap opportunity (N20), 5mg·kg⁻¹ of caffeine (CAF), and their combination (CAF+N20) on sleepiness, mood and reaction-time after partial sleep deprivation (PSD; 04h30 of time in bed; <i>study 1</i>) or after normal sleep night (NSN; 08h30 of time in bed; <i>study 2</i>).…”

A 28 nm CMOS 10 bit 100 MS/s Asynchronous SAR ADC with Low-Power Switching Procedure and Timing-Protection Scheme by Fang Tang (116243)

“…A single-side-fixed technique is utilized to reduce the number of capacitors; a parallel split capacitor array in combination with a partially thermometer coded technique can minimize the switching energy, improve speed, and decrease differential non-linearity (DNL). In addition, a compact timing-protection scheme is proposed to ensure the stability of the asynchronous SAR ADC. …”

Monitoring the Athlete Match Response: Can External Load Variables Predict Post-match Acute and Residual Fatigue in Soccer? A Systematic Review with Meta-analysis by Karim Hader (2548618)

“…For every 100-m run above 5.5 m·s⁻¹, CK activity measured 24 h post-match increased by 30% and CMJPPO decreased by 0.5%. Conversely, the total distance covered did not present any evidence of a clear relationship with any fatigue-related marker at any time-point.…”

Effective non-intrusive load monitoring of buildings based on a novel multi-descriptor fusion with dimensionality reduction by Yassine Himeur (14158821)

“…This paper presents an efficient non-intrusive load monitoring framework that consists of the following main components: (i) a novel fusion of multiple time-domain features is proposed to extract appliance fingerprints; (ii) a dimensionality reduction scheme is introduced to be applied to the fused time-domain features, which relies on fuzzy-neighbors preserving analysis based QR-decomposition. …”

Effects of visual field impairment on driving by Jan Andersson (218600)

“…It was found that the visually impaired drivers reacted 23% slower (1.46s vs. 1.19s) and had 14% less correct number of hits (74% vs. 84%) for single stimuli trials. Reaction time for double stimuli trials was 15% longer (1,68s vs. 1.46s) and hit rate was 27% less (69% vs. 88%). …”

Teachers’ Job Satisfaction in Instructional Delivery Modalities, and the Role of School Leaders: a Study among Selected Private Schools in Abu Dhabi. by YAHYA, AHMAD

“…The primary teaching modalities that are of the research interest are the face-to-face modular, which represents the traditional teaching module that was commonly applied before the COVID-19 pandemic; the online delivery method which suggests the use of fully distance learning solutions for instruction; and the hybrid learning model, which is a mixture of both the online and face-to-face modules as some students receive instructions from home and at the same time some of their peers are attending the class physically at school. …”
