The anticipated continuation of the last three decades of growth of global demand for high-speed high-coverage mobile data, calls for massive investments in cellular infrastructure, for the ongoing roll out of the fifth generation of mobile systems, but also later for the sixth generation. A key enabler, for the high-speed part, is for the cellular system to move up in frequency and support commun
The main purpose of this brief reflection is to examine the relationship between (a) Muslim communal values of neighborliness, mutual support and responsibility for those living together in a defined, spacial community and b)the built environment and structures of mosques and community gathering spaces, with a focus on how the existence of such a built environment and infrastructure helps to devel
Sport-related concussion (SRC) is a serious injury in youth team sports, including handball. While research on the prevention of SRC has made progress over the past 5 years, prevention strategies are lacking in handball. The aim was to explore and develop strategies focusing on information, rules and training that may prevent concussion in youth handball by incorporating knowledge from experts and
BACKGROUND: Partial nitritation-anammox (PNA) is a biological nitrogen removal process commonly used in wastewater treatment plants for the treatment of warm and nitrogen-rich sludge liquor from anaerobic digestion, often referred to as sidestream wastewater. In these systems, biofilms are frequently used to retain biomass with aerobic ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and anammox bacteria, which t
High-fidelity numerical simulations of partial differential equations (PDEs) given a restricted computational budget can significantly limit the number of parameter configurations considered and/or time window evaluated. Multi-fidelity surrogate modelling aims to leverage less accurate, lower-fidelity models that are computationally inexpensive in order to enhance predictive accuracy when high-fid
Uncertainty quantification (UQ) tasks, such as sensitivity analysis and parameter estimation, entail a huge computational complexity when dealing with input-output maps involving the solution of nonlinear differential problems, because of the need to query expensive numerical solvers repeatedly. Projection-based reduced order models (ROMs), such as the Galerkin-reduced basis (RB) method, have been
A data-driven method combined with the formulations of boundary integral equations is developed for the frequency-domain analysis of parametrized acoustic systems, arising from the spatial discretization of the linear Helmholtz equation. The method derives surrogate models for the approximation of frequency response functions at selected field points via the construction of neural networks with ra
MAX IV is a fourth generation synchrotron facility at Lund, Sweden. It is composed of a full energy linear accelerator and two storage rings with 1.5 GeV and 3 GeV, which requires hundreds of beam position monitors. In this context, Libera Single Pass E and Libera Brilliance+ are employed as BPM instruments. This paper will present an overview of the control system suite used in the facility, incl
Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) plays an important role in beyond 5G systems to support high data rate and low latency, especially operating at millimeter-wave frequency bands. In traditional software-based simulators, the simulation time increases exponentially with the number of base station antennas and served users. We propose a hardware-in-loop simulator that combines the flexib
In this work, we leverage the Laplacian eigenbasis of voxelwise white matter (WM) graphs derived from diffusionweighted MRI data, dubbed WM harmonics, to characterize the spatial structure of WM fMRI data. Our motivation for such a characterization is based on studies that show WM fMRI data exhibit a spatial correlational anisotropy that coincides with underlying fiber patterns. By quantifying the
This article explores challenges that suppliers experience when being involved in customers’ product development projects, and how these challenges can be mitigated. It presents a framework of supplier involvement in product development involving four dimensions: People-Process-Tools/Technology-Interaction. The framework consists of 24 challenges and associated mitigating mechanisms. The article c
AIM: Self-expanding metallic stents (SEMS) as bridge to surgery have been questioned due to the fear of perforation and tumour spread. This study aimed to compare SEMS and stoma as bridge to surgery in acute malignant large bowel obstruction in the Swedish population. METHOD: Medical records of patients identified via the Swedish Colorectal Cancer Register 2007-2009 were collected and scrutinized.
