Internet of Things (IoT) is a network constituted by uniquely identifiable commodity objects or devices equipped with some sensing system. To achieve high data rates required for IoT devices, a modern wireless communication system, known as Advanced Antenna Systems(AAS), leads to significant improvement, by increasing not only the data rate but also spectrum efficiency and the channel capacity. A Internet of Things (IoT) is network constituted by day-to-day objects equipped with some sensing system. These objects can also communicate with other objects for data exchange, wirelessly. This calls for a need of better wireless communication systems. New techniques using the 4G (Long-Term Evolution) have been developed to solve this problem, known as Advanced Antenna System (AAS). This new tech

Median power profiles for typical summer and winter days were created using real customer data. The customer group analyzed consists of houses in southern Sweden, SE4, equipped with both solar electricity production (PV) and electric vehicles (EVs) with home charging st

A perpetual series of terror attacks have caused the European Union to shake in its foundations. In the face of the escalating transnational threat of terrorism, decision-makers, under severe public pressure, have repeatedly called for deeper international intelligence cooperation. A bold idea currently being debated is the establishment of a new European Intelligence Unit (EIU) in the field of co

This project is a collaboration with Electrolux, KTH Royal Institute of Technology and the School of Industrial Design (Lund University). The goal of the project was to investigate new ways of cooling an individual, to ultimately result in a product proposal. We have all experienced heat waves in the summer, which can affect us even in our homes. In addition, typical home activities such as cleani

This cardiovascular dysfunction seems to involve calcium desensitization and adrenergic unresponsiveness. We investigated the effects of clinically relevant plasma concentrations of the calcium sensitizer levosimendan during the first 6 h of endotoxemia in a model of

Koncentrationen av koldioxid i atmosfären har ökat sedan den förindustriella eran, mellan åren 1000 och 1750, från 280 parts per million ( ppm – miljondelar ) till 368 ppm år 2000 vilket motsvarar ungefär 31 %. Enligt de sex illustrativa utsläppsscenariernas, utsago ( Special Report on Emissions Scenarios, SRES ) kommer koncentrationen av koldioxid vara mellan 540 och 970 ppm år 2100 ( IPCC, 2001 The carbon dioxide concentration has increased ever since the industrial revolution. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ( IPCC ) the carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere will continue to rise. It will rise from today’s 360 parts per million ( ppm ) to somewhere between 540 and 970 ppm in the year 2100. By then, the average temperature will have increased with 1,4

Background: Public sector organizations develop procurement policies and regulations to ensure appropriate funds management and practice of “best value for money” by managers and purchasing specialists. Nevertheless, while these policies ensure compliance, they often convert the procurement process in resource intensive activities. Previous literature has also pointed the existence of tension betw

Popular Abstract in Uncoded languages A modern tartószerkezeti szabványok általában két fő követelményt támasztanak a tartószerkezetekekkel, illetve szerkezeti elemekkel szemben. Az egyik a tönkremenetellel szembeni biztonsághoz, míg a másik a használhatósághoz kapcsolódik. A szerkezeti használhatóság a tartószerkezet azon képessége, hogy tervezett szerepét élettartams során folyamatosan betöltse.In many design situations the acceptable performance of structures is defined by serviceability requirements. To estimate the probability of serviceability failure three main design aspects should be considered: (1) the relevant exposures, (2) the structural response and (3) the performance criteria. This thesis presents background information and new findings on structural serviceability related

Several prototypes of the Transition Radiation Tracker for the ATLAS experiment at the LHC have been built and tested at the CERN SPS accelerator. Results from detailed studies of the straw-tube hit registration efficiency and drift-time measurements and of the pion and electron spectra without and with radiators are presented.

The ATLAS Inner Detector consists of three sub-systems, the Pixel Detector at the innermost radius, the Semi-Conductor Tracker at intermediate radii, and the Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT) at the outermost radius in front of the electromagnetic calorimeter. The TRT provides a combination of continuous tracking with many projective measurements based on individual drift-tubes (or straws) and of

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det är välkänt att utflödesobstruktion kan leda till förstoring av blåsan med åtföljande minskning av kontraktionskraften, något som kan påvisas både in vivo och in vitro. I arbete I undersöktes därför om det fanns regionala skillnader i blåsmuskelfunktion hos kaniner med experimentell utflödesobstruktion.

Possible pathophysiological pathways and therapeutic approaches were tested by drug treatment and the use of knockout models. Furthermore the role of estrog
