Using Interaction Geography to Explore Building Occupant Behaviors in Virtual Reality: A Pilot Study

by Hoa Vo and Peter Huesemann-Odom
Journal of Engineering Research and Sciences, Volume 1, Issue 11, Page # 1-7, 2022; DOI: 10.55708/js0111001
Abstract: The sole focus of current occupant behavior research on environmental and contextual factors (i.e., physical attributes) in buildings is a missed opportunity. Psychological, physiological, social, time, and random factors also influence building occupants. In this pilot study (n=10), the authors used Interaction Geography to capture human movements across space and time in a Virtual Reality… Read More

A Tunable Dual-mode SIW Cavity Based Bandpass Filter with Wide Upper Stopband Characteristics

by Md. Atiqur Rahman and Pankaj Sarkar
Journal of Engineering Research and Sciences, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page # 24-29, 2023; DOI: 10.55708/js0201003
Abstract: A new approach to design a bandpass filter using substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) topology is presented here for 5G applications. The aim of the design is to produce a dual mode passband characteristic with wide upper stopband behaviour, centred at 4.7 GHz. Four identical Stepped Impedance Resonator (SIR) slots are etched into the top surface… Read More

Applied Salt Technique to Secure Steganographic Algorithm

by Bo Bo Oo
Journal of Engineering Research and Sciences, Volume 2, Issue 2, Page # 8-14, 2023; DOI: 10.55708/js0202002
Abstract: Digital multimedia assets, including photographs, movies, and audio files, have become a staple of contemporary life. Steganography is a method for undetectable information concealment in these files. One can communicate messages to another by modifying multimedia signals so that a human would be unable to tell the difference between the original signal and the altered… Read More

Blockchain Tokens for Agri-Food Supply Chain

by Ricardo Borges Dos Santos, Rodrigo Palucci Pantoni and Nunzio Marco Torrisi
Journal of Engineering Research and Sciences, Volume 2, Issue 2, Page # 15-23, 2023; DOI: 10.55708/js0202003
Abstract: The aim of this research is to suggest and analyze a framework to give universal publicity to food properties certificates from any certification authorities. The focus is the certification of agro product instances, i.e. unique for every single harvest, using smart contracts and blockchain non fungible tokens minted by third-party authorities. The development and testing… Read More

Designing Critical and Secondary Information in Augmented Reality Headsets for Situational Awareness

by Julia Woodward, Jesse Smith, Isaac Wang, Sofia Cuenca and Jaime Ruiz
Journal of Engineering Research and Sciences, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page # 1-15, 2023; DOI: 10.55708/js0203001
Abstract: Augmented Reality (AR) headsets are being used in different contexts (e.g., the oil industry, healthcare, military); however, there is a lack of research and design recommendations on how information should be presented in the AR headset displays, especially for aiding users’ situational awareness. We present two studies: one examining if existing findings on the perceptibility… Read More

Coding: First Steps from Kindergarten up to Primary School

by Elisa Benetti and Gianluca Mazzini
Journal of Engineering Research and Sciences, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page # 16-30, 2023; DOI: 10.55708/js0203002
Abstract: Computational thinking is now featured in many school curricula around the world. It is in fact defined as the "new English", emphasizing its universally recognized indispensability. Despite this, the subject is almost never addressed until primary school where, however, hours dedicated to it are often too limited. Our first training proposal, including basic coding concepts… Read More
