  • Hvannberg, Ebba Thora; Law, Effie Lai-Chong (ACM Press, 2017)
    An important, but resource demanding step in analyzing observations from usability evaluations is to consolidate usability problems (UPs) that were identified by several evaluators into one master list. An open question is whether consolidating UPs in ...
  • Fenger, Paula; Harðarson, Gísli (GLSA, 2020)
    Germanic compounds often contain an element referred to as linkers, (L). These elements are homophonous with inflectional suffixes, like plural or case markers, but do not nec- essarily have the same meaning or function as the corresponding inflectional ...
  • Sultan, Muhammad Taha; Gudmundsson, J. T.; Manolescu, Andrei; Ciurea, Magdalena Lidia; Svavarsson, Halldor; Ingvarsson, Snorri (IEEE, 2021-10-06)
    We investigate the photoluminescence properties of structures comprising of Si1-xGex nanoparticles (NPs) within SiO2, GeO2, TiO2 and Ta2O5 oxide matrices. Of the investigated structures, it was observed that the structures with GeO2 and TiO2 matrices ...

    The earthquake hazard in Iceland is highest in its two transform zones, the South Iceland Seismic Zone in the South and the Tjörnes Fracture Zone in the North and the reliable probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) is the prerequisite for the ...
  • Kristinsdóttir, Bjarnheiður; Hreinsdóttir, Freyja; Lavicza, Zsolt (University of Copenhagen, 2018-09-05)
    Teachers who encounter difficulties when implementing technology in their classes often hesitate to give it another try. They expect too many technical problems to emerge, reducing time spent on learning mathematics. Still, if a task requires only ...
  • Sveinbjörnsdóttir, Árný; Lacour, Jean-Lionel; Steen-Larsen, Hans Christian; Peters, Andrew (European Geosciences Union, 2019)
    Water isotopes are powerful tracers of the hydrological cycle and can be used to serve many purposes in climateresearch. Here, we use water isotopic measurements – in the vapour and in the precipitations – from Bermudaand Iceland measurement facilities, ...
  • Sumner, Eric Michael; Aach, Marcel; Lintermann, Andreas; Unnthorsson, Runar; Riedel, Morris (IEEE, 2022-02-16)
    Sound localization is the ability of humans to determine the source direction of sounds that they hear. Emulating this capability in virtual environments can have various societally relevant applications enabling more realistic virtual acoustics. We ...
  • Hernandez, Victor; Rupakhety, Rajesh; Ólafsson, Símon; Bessason, Bjarni; Erlingsson, Sigurdur (Conspress, 2022-09-04)
    The Geldingadalur eruption in the Reykjanes Peninsula on 19 March 2021 was preceded by several earthquakes of volcano-tectonic origin throughout 2020 and 2021. Seven earthquakes with magnitude M≥5 took place during the swarm, all of them recorded by ...
  • Tryggvason, Ásgeir; Frímannsdóttir, T. H.; Sultan, Muhammad Taha; Thorarinsdottir, K. A.; Magnus, F.; Ingvarsson, Snorri (IEEE, 2022-10-12)
    We present a study of the effect of annealing amorphous ferromagnetic thin films of Co0.85(Al0.7Zr0.3)0.15, post deposition. The annealing was done in vacuum with no applied magnetic field. We find that already at a relatively low annealing ...
  • Gulevich, D. R.; Yudin, D.; Skryabin, D. V.; Iorsh, Ivan; Shelykh, Ivan (IEEE, 2017-05)
    We study discrete nonlinear edge excitations of polaritonic kagome lattice. We show that when nontrivial topological phase of polaritons is realized, the kagome lattice permits propagation of bright solitons formed from topological edge states.
  • Samuelsson, Sigurdur Gauti; Book, Matthias (Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2020-06-27)
    Powerful software tools, such as software development environments, often have complex graphical user interfaces (GUIs) that are not intuitive to handle, especially when performing complex, multi-step operations. We hypothesize that sketching could be ...
  • Bjarnadóttir, Kristín (Utrecht University, 2019)
    The paper describes two Icelandic arithmetic textbooks, published respectively in 1780 and 1911–14, both written at the beginning of an era when enhancing general education was placed on the agenda for restoring the Icelandic society after natural ...
  • Csapo, Adam; Spagnol, Simone; Herrera Martinez, Marcelo; Bujacz, Michał; Janeczek, Maciej; Ivanica, Gabriel; Wersényi, György; Moldoveanu, Alin; Unnthorsson, Runar (Audio Engineering Society, 2017-05-11)
    This paper focuses on auditory sensory substitution for providing visually impaired users with suitable information in both static scene recognition and dynamic obstacle avoidance. We introduce three different sonification models together with three ...
  • Hvannberg, Ebba Thora; Halldórsdóttir, Gyða; Rudinsky, Jan (Springer International Publishing, 2015)
    Voice communication is vital for collaboration between first responders and commanders during crisis management. To decrease cost, training can take place in a virtual environment instead of in a real one. It is non-trivial to build and evaluate a ...
