Ognjanović, U. (author)In this report we present a model to simulate the performance and robustness of the Charge-Resonance Check (CR-Check) in the Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) center. The CR-Check is a routine which verifies that the charge state of the NV center is NV$^-$ and that the lasers, addressing the NV center, are on resonance with the optical lines. This is done...bachelor thesis 2020

Athanasiadis, Omiros (author)The question of how well in terms of safety can a driver take over control of an automated vehicle in response to an emergency situation is of crucial importance. Most of the studies performed so far focus on the drivers’ reaction times and the mechanisms behind the transition. In this study, an effort is made to incorporate the braking times...master thesis 2020
