Popular Abstract in Swedish Det finns flera avancerade datormodeller att tillgå för att analysera och utvärdera brandsäkerheten i byggnader i samband med nyproduktion och ombyggnad. Denna typ av datormodeller kan, i många fall, göra bra förutsägelser av faktorer som är betydelsefulla för brandsäkerheten och därför är de viktiga verktyg vid brandtekniska analyser. Datormodellerna är dock komplexa oFire dynamics in multi-room compartments are explored in this thesis and new methods to study conditions in rooms adjacent to the room of fire origin are presented. Simple and transparent engineering methods can create good possibilities for understanding different complex phenomena present in fire science. Such methods can also be used in the design process in order to perform rough estimates bef

It is shown that a general form of Popov multipliers can be used in stability analysis based on integral quadratic constraints (IQC). The Popov multiplier is nonproper and a condition that the nominal plant is strictly proper will be imposed in order to ensure boundedness of the IQC corresponding to the Popov multiplier. A consequence of our main result is that the classical Popov criterion can be

Length and area regularization are commonplace for inverse problems today. It has however turned out to be much more difficult to incorporate a curvature prior. In this paper we propose two improvements to a recently proposed framework based on global optimization. The mesh geometry is analyzed both from a theoretical and experimental viewpoint and hexagonal meshes are shown to be superior. Our se

Business Rules (BR) and Business Processes (BP) are essential pillars in any Business Information System (BIS) and important areas of BIS design (BISD). Historically, BRs have been overlooked as a part of BISD. The Business Rules Approach (BRA) focuses on concepts and methods to remedy the neglected BR design and management. BRs in this perspective are stateless and concerned with the “what” of a

A proposal to investigate into night history/ histories as an unexplored field of humanistic research

The required moment of inertia for steel plate girders is commonly provided by using relatively slender webs to achieve high strength-to-weight ratio. A large part of the shear capacity of such plate girders depends on the post-buckling reserve strength of the web panels due to the diagonal tension field mechanism. The effectiveness of the tension field significantly depends on geometrical and mec

Capsazepine is known as a transient receptor potential channel vanilloid subfamily 1 (TRPV1) antagonist that inhibits bronchoconstriction evoked in animals by TRPV1 agonists. In this study, effects of capsazepine and chemically related analogues, so called capsazepinoids, were examined in vitro on contractile effects in human small airway preparations. Repeated cycles with 1 h of LTD4-free physiol

Robotised welding is one of the most important robot tasks used in manufacturing industry. The operator usually performs the programming of the robot manually, i.e. by jogging the robot arm to each coordinate pose in space. Programming can, however, be made more accurate by the use of simulation, using so called Computer Aided Robotics. Simulation can also be a powerful tool to evaluate and contro
