Data on the impact of an object with different thicknesses of different soft materials at different impact velocities on a dummy head
( Elsevier Inc. , 2019 , Article)The purpose of this data is to investigate the effect of different thicknesses of different soft materials samples added to an object on the resultant head acceleration of a developed dummy head upon impact. The object was ... -
Datasets for recognition of aggressive interactions of children toward robotic toys
( Elsevier , 2021 , Other)The data is related to unwanted interactions between a person and a small robotic toy based on acceleration sensor embedded within the robotic toy. Three toys were considered namely, a stuffed panda, a stuffed robot, and ... -
Driving behaviour and sustainable mobility-policies and approaches revisited
( MDPI AG , 2018 , Article)Climate change is receiving increasing attention in recent years. The transportation sector contributes substantially to increased fuel consumption, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and poor air quality, which imposes a ... -
Effect of Pharmacogenetic-Based Decision Support Tools in Improving Depression Outcomes: A Systematic Review
( Qatar University Press , 2021 , Poster)Introduction: Evidence supporting pharmacogenetic (PGX) tests utility in depression is scarce. The main objectives of this study were to summarize, update, and assess the quality of the available evidence regarding PGX ... -
A Framework for Assistive Social Robots for Detecting Aggression in Children
( springer link , 2022 , Conference Paper)Children during their early years might exhibit different forms of aggression against others. Aggression can be physical or relational. Physical aggression can take on different forms such as hitting, pushing, and kicking. ... -
