Tapping beam recognition and measurement with infrared camera : Optimisation of an industrial process using an thermal imaging camera and computer vi…

2021

Master's thesis in Mechatronics (MAS500) This thesis presents the research and development of an application for recognition and measuring of a ferrosilicon tapping beam using an Infrared (IR) camera. Ferrosilicon production is a highly endothermic process, requiring large amounts of energy to operate; thus, the need for increased efficiency is constant. Using an IR camera for non-intrusive measurements of the tapping beam and developing computer vision algorithms that can identify distinctive process parameters are investigated in this project. Today a videostream from an IR camera overlooking the tapping area at Elkem Thamshavn is directly displayed in the tapping control room with no for…

Regional climate model simulations for Europe at 6 and 0.2 k BP: sensitivity to changes in anthropogenic deforestation

2014

International audience; This study aims to evaluate the direct effects of anthropogenic deforestation on simulated climate at two contrasting periods in the Holocene, ∼ 6 and ∼ 0.2 k BP in Eu-rope. We apply the Rossby Centre regional climate model RCA3, a regional climate model with 50 km spatial resolution, for both time periods, considering three alternative descriptions of the past vegetation: (i) potential natural vegetation (V) simulated by the dynamic vegetation model LPJ-GUESS, (ii) potential vegetation with anthro-pogenic land use (deforestation) from the HYDE3.1 (History Database of the Global Environment) scenario (V + H3.1), and (iii) potential vegetation with anthropogenic land …

A Perspective Review on Integrating VR/AR with Haptics into STEM Education for Multi-Sensory Learning

2022

As a result of several governments closing educational facilities in reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, almost 80% of the world’s students were not in school for several weeks. Schools and universities are thus increasing their efforts to leverage educational resources and provide possibilities for remote learning. A variety of educational programs, platforms, and technologies are now accessible to support student learning; while these tools are important for society, they are primarily concerned with the dissemination of theoretical material. There is a lack of support for hands-on laboratory work and practical experience. This is particularly important for all disciplines related …

Human Simulation and Sustainability : Ontological, Epistemological, and Ethical Reflections

2020

This article begins with a brief outline of recent advances in the application of computer modeling to sustainability research, identifying important gaps in coverage and associated limits in methodological capability, particularly in regard to taking account of the tangled human factors that are often impediments to a sustainable future. It then describes some of the ways in which a new transdisciplinary approach within &ldquo

Combination of Searches for Invisible Higgs Boson Decays with the ATLAS Experiment

2019

Dark matter particles, if sufficiently light, may be produced in decays of the Higgs boson. This Letter presents a statistical combination of searches for H → invisible decays where H is produced according to the standard model via vector boson fusion, Z(ℓℓ)H, and W/Z(had)H, all performed with the ATLAS detector using 36.1  fb⁻¹ of pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of √s = 13  TeV at the LHC. In combination with the results at √s = 7 and 8 TeV, an exclusion limit on the H → invisible branching ratio of 0.26(0.17-0.05+0.07) at 95% confidence level is observed (expected).

Resolution of the ATLAS muon spectrometer monitored drift tubes in LHC Run 2

2019

The momentum measurement capability of the ATLAS muon spectrometer relies fundamentally on the intrinsic single-hit spatial resolution of the monitored drift tube precision tracking chambers. Optimal resolution is achieved with a dedicated calibration program that addresses the specific operating conditions of the 354 000 high-pressure drift tubes in the spectrometer. The calibrations consist of a set of timing offsets and drift time to drift distance transfer relations, and result in chamber resolution functions. This paper describes novel algorithms to obtain precision calibrations from data collected by ATLAS in LHC Run 2 and from a gas monitoring chamber, deployed in a dedicated gas fac…

Investigating the Affordances and Constraints of SimReal for Mathematical Learning : A Case Study in Teacher Education

2019

Visualizations tools are one of the most innovative technologies that emerged the last few years in educational settings. They provide new potentialities for mathematical learning by means of dynamic animations and representations, interactive simulations, and live streaming of lessons. Moreover, visualization tools have the potential to foster a visual, dynamic, distributed, and embodied mathematics rather than individual achievements and static representations. This paper uses the visualization tool SimReal in teacher education to explore the affordances of the tool for learning mathematics. It proposes a framework that captures the affordances of SimReal at a technological, pedagogical, …

A high-accuracy calibration method for temperature dependent photoluminescence imaging

2019

This work demonstrates a novel technique for calibrating temperature dependent photoluminescence (PL) images of silicon wafers with high accuracy. The PL signal is calibrated using a heat-controlled photoconductance (PC) stage integrated into the PL imaging system. The PC signal is measured in true steady state condition and used to determine the calibration constant under the same temperature and illumination as the PL image, thus providing a high-precision calibration. This results in a robust method for imaging of important physical parameters, such as the minority carrier lifetime and the implied voltage at different temperatures, as well as the temperature coefficients and the recombin…
