Abstract:
This diploma thesis deals with the creation of a computation driver model. In the first part, there is an overview on driver models for longitudinal and lateral control. Next, driving maneuvres that could be selected for testing of driver model are described. In the practical part, there is created a computational driver model, whose task is to follow required path. The resulting model is tested on three driving maneuvers - steady turning, moose test and slalom. Finally, this model is tested on the passage of a real track. For all these tracks, a comparison is made and the success of the model

Abstract:
This paper deals with simulation models of the human operator controlling lateral position of simulated vehicle. I am comparing parameters and quality of the McRuer human driver model and the PID controller. Simulated system is single-track vehicle model. Simulated driver is tasked to pass a Moose test with this vehicle model. I am using the simulated annealing method to find optimal parameters of the driver model and then I visualize realized test in 2D and 3D visualization. In the end of this paper I compare simulations of the driver models and assess achieved results.

In this thesis different situations are considered in which the preliminary test estimator is applied and the performance of the preliminary test estimator under different proposed loss functions, namely the reflected normal , linear exponential (LINEX) and bounded LINEX (BLINEX) loss functions is evaluated. In order to motivate the use of the BLINEX loss function rather than the reflected normal loss or the LINEX loss function, the risk for the preliminary test estimator and its component estimators derived under BLINEX loss is compared to the risk of the preliminary test estimator and

Hearing loss is an impairment that is under-recognised, under-reported and under-treated. This can be explained by the many existing barriers – the shortage of audiological services, financial cost to an individual seeking treatment, the stigma of both hearing loss and hearing aids, and healthcare seeking rates, particularly among the Māori population.

La Tesis que se defiende en este trabajo de investigación está constituida por tres grupos de Hipótesis que expresaremos individualmente al mostrar en resumen las conclusiones finales. En el primer grupo se propone dilucidar el Concepto y Ámbito Nosológico de los diferentes Signos con que se denominan los Trastornos psiquiátricos que, en la actualidad, llamamos:"Borderline", “Etats-límite”, “Fronterizo". El análisis de los Signos comienza por su recopilación a lo largo de la historia de la Psiquiatría, a la vez que se los somete a un desdoblamiento, dando prioridad, en un momento, al val

Abstract:
An early detection of hearing loss in children is important for the child's speech and language development. For children between 3-6 months, a reliable method to measure hearing and determine hearing thresholds is missing. A hearing test based on the pupillary response to auditory signal detection as measured by eye tracking is based on an automatic physiological response. This hearing test could be used instead of the objective hearing tests used today. The presence of pupillary response has been shown in response to speech, but it is unstudied in response to sinus tones. The objective of th

Abstract:
This paper examines nostalgia in photo-poetry book Nostos, and nostalgia’s existence as a theoretical global condition arising from displacement, looking at nostalgia specifically not as a yearning for home, but a yearning for a lost sense of feeling at home. It traces the lineage of image-text hybrid art practices and examines the significance of conveying meaning through both synergistically. It studies the psychoanalytic process of transforming loss into object, or absence into presence, ultimately using the object as a lens to view oneself and the way in which nostalgia manifests itself.

Abstract:
This thesis investigated the effect of high intensity, intermittent exercise (HIIE) on fat loss in young, sedentary women. It attempted also to identify possible mechanisms underpinning exercise-induced changes in adiposity. Study 1 investigated some of the metabolic and hormonal responses to two variations of HIIE. Sixteen female subjects were tested. The first session involved a cycle ergometer VO2peak test. The next two sessions were completed in random order. After baseline measures the women did 20 min of HIIE. There was a short bout exercise of 8 s work, followed by 12 s relative rest an

Master of Science<br>Department of Biological & Agricultural Engineering<br>Aleksey Y. Sheshukov<br>Soil erosion is one of the main reasons for agricultural land degradation in the world. Losses of land because of high soil erosion rates and rapidly expanding population result in significant reduction of cultivated land area per capita, and shortage of food on the global scale. Soil erosion can be a major source of sediment in the aquatic systems leading to reduction of organism population and poor water quality. Many factors affect soil erodibility, such as, soil properties, rainfall, topogra

<p>The technical evolution during the past decade have escalated the use of electronic devices, which are more common today than ever before. The market is still growing rapidly and will continue to do so. The reason for this is the increased demand for devices with integrated circuits. In addition to the increased volume of production, the chips are also becoming more complex which is also reflected in the requirements of the chip design process.</p><p>An advanced chip that combines several different hardware modules (cores) to form a complete system is called a System-on-Chip (SoC).

Abstract:
Children with loss of control (LOC) eating and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are at risk for excessive weight gain. However, it is unclear whether or not these children show disturbances in hunger and satiety regulation. The goal was to examine the food intake and sense of LOC over eating as well as LOC eating-related characteristics during test meal in children with LOC eating and ADHD. Children aged 8-13 y with LOC eating (n = 33), ADHD (n = 32), and matched healthy controls (n = 33), consumed a test meal consisting of their chosen lunch food, with the instruction to eat un
