Humans have experienced motion sickness and possessed the knowledge of stereopsis since classical antiquity. Knowledge of stereopsis dates back to approximately 300 B.C., when Euclid first recognized the concept of depth perception in human vision. Further, the motion sickness is including a sensation of wooziness and nausea that has been documented since approximately 400 B.C.,…

In this investigation, an integrated physics-informed deep learning and topology optimization approach for solving density-based topology designs is presented to accomplish efficiency and flexibility. In every iteration, the neural network generates feasible topology designs, and then the topology performance is evaluated using the finite element method. Unlike the data-driven methods where the loss functions are…

Although the perception of Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) has been thoroughly investigated, but there is inconsistency in the results. The relationship between nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions, financial development, economic growth, foreign direct investment, and electric power consumption in Bahrain over the period 1980 – 2012 is examined in this paper. The autoregressive distributed lags (ARDL)…

Educators should be considered the learning style of students so that the best practice approach can be applied in learning activities. As students understand their learning style, they will be able to integrate it into their learning process. Kolb Learning Style was the learning style that was widely used based on the theory of learning…

Multi-Robot System (MRS) is a complex system that contains many different software and hardware components. This main problem addressed in this article is the MRS design complexity. The proposed solution provides a modular modeling and simulation technique that is based on formal system engineering method, therefore the MRS design complexity is decomposed and reduced. Modeling…

Transformers are habitually designed and manufactured for operation at a fundamental frequency of 50Hz and sinusoidal load current. Transformers are susceptible to non-linear loads. The inception of switching action characterises Non-linear loads and consequently nonsinusoidal load current which brings about higher transformer service losses, hotspot temperature rise, and degradation of cellulosic and liquid insulation, and…

This study aimed to develop an airflow-vibrator motivated facility and assess exercise behaviors. The combination design involved computer-controlled airflow/ vibrators, a user interface program, and an adjustable structure presenting interaction options. The teacher and the participants can choose specific music with adjustable speed. The researcher did interviews during the initial test and field study. During…

This study aims to design a gamification affordances pedagogy. Affordances are the ways in which we perceive environments to support the needs of learners in the educational system. The main questions are how gamification elements can influence student engagement to improve their affordances. Affordance behavior is a human behavior that refers to a mindset; an…

In research project, efficiency comparison study in prediction of normalization with data mining classification.
