In conjunction with psychological stress, physiological indicators such as heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) are frequently employed. This study uses a substitute for heart rate variability (HRV) known as short-term pulse rate variability (PRV) to evaluate emotional changes. We examined sixteen college students using a low-cost photoplethysmograph and obtained a short-term PRV…

Limited interactive communication modes between students and teachers in online environments may lead to teachers misinterpreting or overlooking student needs during online teaching. Students learning online may also hesitate to make their needs known even when latent desires in teaching flow, pacing, and review, may be beneficial to the quality of the learning experience. The…

Power losses exist naturally and have to be cared for in the operation of electrical power systems. Many researchers have worked on various methods and approaches to reduce losses by incorporating distributed generators (DG), particularly from renewable sources. These studies are based on the maximum unit penetration of the DGs, which is rarely achieved, resulting…

This article focuses on risk analysis using a multi-criteria decision-making method. Due to many performed risk analyses for soft targets, we are constantly trying to find new methods for objective risk assessment. Many risk analyses are subjective, which is a problem when planning security measures and comparing results (different events, objects, places, etc.). In this…

Carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET) has a huge advantage over the Si- MOSFET. In MOSFET switching occurs by altering channel resistivity whereas in CNTFET switching occurs by modulation contact resistance. CNTFET generates three to four times of drive current than MOSFET. Transconductance of CNTFET is four times higher than the MOSFET. The average carrier…
