Are Norwegian academic librarians ready to share usage data for learning analytics?
(Bergen Open Access Publishing, 2018)University libraries offer services that generate data about how students and faculty use knowledge sources and engage with teaching and learning. In an era of Big Data there is mounting pressure ... -
Semirelativistic Schrödinger Equation for Relativistic Laser-Matter Interactions
(American Physical Society, 2018)A semirelativistic formulation of light-matter interaction is derived using the so called propagation gauge and the relativistic mass shift. We show that relativistic effects induced by a superintense laser field can, to ... -
Redningsarbeid ved snøskredulykker
(OsloMet - storbyuniversitetet. Institutt for produktdesign, 2018)Every year hundreds of people are involved in avalanches to a greater or smaller extent in Norway, and every year experienced and inexperienced mountain hikers lose their lives as a consequence of being taken by an avalanche ... -

Educational Challenges in Computer-based Finite Element Analysis and Design of structures
(Science Publications, 2018-10-26)Computer simulations and computational methods, such as the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) have become essential methodologies in science and engineering during the last decades, in a wide variety of academic fields. Six ... -
Hostage of the Software: Experiences in Teaching Inferential Statistics to Undergraduate Human-Computer Interaction Students and a Survey of the Literature
(Springer, 2018)Students’ knowledge of inferential statistics is lacking in many computer science study programs. Yet, the needs for inferential statistical skills have emerged with new fields of study such as human-computer interaction ... -
Statistics-IDE: Supporting the design of empirical experiments for non-experts during early stages of research projects
(Springer Verlag, 2018-12-31)Empirical experimentation and inferential statistics are often perceived as challenging among students and researchers. Yet, empirical experiments are highly relevant and appropriate methods in several areas of ergonomics ... -
Automatic Optical Inspection of Solder Ball Burn Defects on Head Gimbal Assembly
(Springer Verlag, 2018-02-23)The detection of low quality solder joint quality in hard disk drive (HDD) manufacturing is a time consuming, error-prone and costly process that is often performed manually. This paper thus proposes two automated optical ... -
Towards a framework for the design of quantitative experiments: Human-computer interaction and accessibility research
(Springer Verlag, 2018-06-05)Many students and researchers struggle with the design and analysis of empirical experiments. Such issue may be caused by lack of knowledge about inferential statistics and suitable software tools. Often, students and ... -

Reducing Scanning Keyboard Input Errors with Extended Start Dwell-Time
(Springer, 2018)Some individuals with reduced motor function rely on scanning keyboards to operate computers. A problem observed with scanning keyboards is that errors typically occur during the first group or first cell of a group. This ... -
Multi-switch scanning keyboards: A theoretical study of simultaneous parallel scans with QWERTY layout
(Springer Verlag, 2018-06-05)Scanning keyboards can be useful aids for individuals with reduced motor function. However, scanning input techniques are known for being very slow to use because they require waiting for the right cell to be highlighted ... -
Modelling 3D Objects using 2D Sketches through Radial Renderings of Curvature Maps
