On stability of linear dynamic systems with hysteresis feedback
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Abstract. The stability of linear dynamic systems with hysteresis in feedback is considered. While the absolute stability for memoryless nonlinearities (known as Lure’s problem) can be proved by the well-known circle ... -
A Non-normal-Mode Marginal State of Convection in a Porous Rectangle
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The fourth-order Darcy–Bénard eigenvalue problem for onset of thermal convection in a 2D rectangular porous box is investigated. The conventional type of solution has normal-mode dependency in at least one of the two spatial ... -
Onset of Convection in an Inclined Anisotropic Porous Layer with Internal Heat Generation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The onset of convection in an inclined porous layer which is heated internally by a uniform distribution of heat sources is considered. We investigate the combined effects of inclination, anisotropy and internal heat ... -
Themes within lecturers' views on the teaching of linear algebra
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper reports on themes that arose in an investigation of university lecturers’ views on the teaching of linear algebra. This focus on themes was the initial part of a study concentrating on four areas: What is important ... -

Affect and Mathematical Modeling Assessment : A Case Study on Engineering Students’ Experience of Challenge and Flow During a Compulsory Mathematical Modeling Task
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2019)This chapter describes a study on engineering students’ affect while working on the Tracker Project Task, a group assessment task that asks students (1) to use digital tools (the camera in their smart phones and free tracker ... -
Prospective mathematics teachers? self-referential metaphors as indicators of the emerging professional identity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Ideals play a key role in a student teachers’ identity work. They form targets to strive for and a mirror for reflection. In this paper, we examine Finnish mathematics student teachers’ metaphors for the teacher’s role ... -

Task Contexts in Dutch Mathematics Education
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)This chapter offers a description of task contexts in mathematics education in the Netherlands. International comparative studies show that the Dutch average percentage of mathematics tasks with real-life connections per ... -
Investigating the Affordances and Constraints of SimReal for Mathematical Learning : A Case Study in Teacher Education
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2019)Visualizations tools are one of the most innovative technologies that emerged the last few years in educational settings. They provide new potentialities for mathematical learning by means of dynamic animations and ... -
