Abstract in Undetermined This work tackles the problem of interferometric phase estimation in the presence of layover by using nonuniform multibaseline interferometric synthetic aperture radar systems. The effects of nonuniform sampling on Fourier-based and superresolution spectral estimation methods are investigated. The impact on both the spectral properties and on the interferometric phase esti

The Working Group III Special Report on Renewable Energy Sources and Climate Change Mitigation (SRREN) presents an assessment of the literature on the scientific, technological, environmental, economic and social aspects of the contribution of six renewable energy (RE) sources to the mitigation of climate change. It is intended to provide policy relevant information to governments, intergovernment

The possibility of reducing the transient times at grade changes in paper production and machine start-ups on the paper machines has highlighted the need for increased knowledge of the steam supply system. Models in this area have been presented in previous work and it is of interest to compare these models with each other and evaluate them against experimental data. This paper reports on the resu

Contemporary advancements in miniaturization of analytical systems have advantageously fostered development, automation, and hyphenation of a variety of sample preparation techniques. Among several downscaled extraction designs, porous synthetic polymeric membranes (such as flat sheet (FS) or hollow fiber (HF)) have been utilized for membrane-based extraction, separating two aqueous phases (as in

This paper presents a method for visualizing the scoping process in platform-based development of embedded systems. The proposed visualization shows the decision process of including or excluding features that are candidates for the next release. The presented visualization charts are evaluated in a large-size embedded system platform project. The evaluation indicates that the visualization of fea

Popular Abstract in Swedish Människan har märkbart ändrat Jordens ekosystem och dess funktioner. Genom avskogning och konvertering av naturliga ekosystem till åkrar och betesmarker så har människor skapat helt nya typer av ekosystem. Cirka en tredjedel av den koldioxid (CO2) som människor har släppt ut i atmosfären, kommer från dessa aktiviteter, resten beror till största delen på utsläpp från förThrough deforestation and conversion of natural ecosystems to croplands and pastures, have humans released vast amounts of carbon (C) dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. Roughly one third of the cumulative anthropogenic emissions until today stem from these practices, the remainder being mostly due to fossil fuel combustion. The extra CO2 has caused an increase in global air temperature, and both t

A critical edition of the office and mass for St. Elin (Helena) of Skövde by Brynolf Algotsson, Bishop of Skara 1278-1317.

Investigation of a novel condition monitoring approach, combining artificial neural network (ANN) with a sequential analysis technique, has been reported in this paper. For this purpose operational data from a Siemens SGT600 gas turbine has been employed for the training of an ANN model. This ANN model is subsequently used for the prediction of performance parameters of the gas turbine. Simulated

A novel approach to reduce the multiple light scattering contribution in planar laser images of atomizing sprays is reported. This new technique, named Structured Laser Illumination Planar Imaging (SLIPI), has been demonstrated in the dense region of a hollow-cone water spray generated in ambient air at 50 bars injection pressure. The idea is based on using an incident laser sheet which is spatial

The emergence of post-genomic approaches that couple chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays to high-throughput technique has greatly advanced our ability to investigate epigenetic features associated with normal cell development and disease. Nevertheless, these techniques exhibit some limitations. Firstly, standard protocols usually require millions of cells, thus limiting their application t

Substituting Zn for Cu is known to rapidly quench superconductivity in the doped perovskites but the mechanism behind it is still not clearly understood. Single phase YBa2(Cu1-xZnx)(3)O7-delta (x=0.0 to 0.06) samples were synthesized and characterized using XRD, wet titration, resistivity, and ac susceptibility. Angle-integrated Valence Band Photo emission and Zn K-edge XAFS results clearly show t
