This work investigates single-sensor localization of acoustic emissions (AEs) along a wind turbine blade with supervised neural networks. We evaluate six architectures: a Dense MLP, a 1D CNN on time-domain inputs, two 2D CNNs on linear spectrograms (LinSpec) and mel-spectrograms (MelSpec), a CRNN (2D CNN + LSTM), and RepVGG (Mini RepVGG in simulation, RepVGG-A0 in experiments). Three experimental
Verifiering av tekniska egenskaper inför återbruk av prefabricerade massiva betongbjälklag är en komplex process som kräver projektspecifika bedömningar. I detta arbete har ett tillvägagångssätt tagits fram för ett mer generellt fall i hopp om att kunna appliceras på en större brädd av olika projekt, under premissen att det anpassas efter projektsspecifika förutsättningar. Tillvägagångssättet har The verification of technical properties associated with the reuse of prefabricated solid concrete floor slabs is a complex process that must be assessed on a project-specific basis. In this thesis an approach has been developed for a more general case, with the intention that it may be applied across a broader range of projects, provided that it is adapted to project-specific conditions. The appr
Popular Abstract in Swedish Byggnadsprestanda – Metoder för förbättrad prediktering och verifiering av energianvändning och inneklimat Hans Bagge, Byggnadsfysik LTH Introduktion För att kunna minska utsläpp av växthusgaser och rädda klimatet på jorden är det av yttersta vikt att vi kan bygga byggnader med låg energianvändning och bra inneklimat. Byggnader står i dagsläget för mellan 30 och 40 %Reducing CO2 emissions is one of the most important goals in Europe as well as the rest of the world. To reach that goal, the use of energy must be reduced. Thus, the building industry is facing a great challenge. Not only energy efficiency but also sustainability is desirable in the building stock. This thesis presents and suggests methods that can be used to improve prediction and verification o
The aim of this study was to carry out a dosimetric verification of a dynamic multileaf collimator (DMLC)-based tumor-tracking delivery during respiratory-like motion. The advantage of tumor-tracking radiation delivery is the ability to allow a tighter margin around the target by continuously following and adapting the dose delivery to its motion. However, there are geometric and dosimetric uncert
SSAB Tunnplåt AB manufactures high strength steel to e.g. beams to trailers, containers, trucks and cars. In high strength steel designs the ratio width to thickness is also high and therefore the risk for local buckling is high. When buckling occurs the stress will re-distribute and large deformation will occur. It is therefore important to take buckling into consideration when dimensioning high

Introduction and objective. Low levels of serum vitamin D have been associated with increased occurrence of ischemic heart disease (IHD), but findings are inconsistent, e.g. seasonal variation is not always considered in the analyses. The aim of this study was to investigate whether vitamin D is associated with IHD among rural middle-aged men in Sweden when seasonal variation is taken into account
INTRODUCTION: The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery (LCoGS) aims to address the critical need for surgical care worldwide. To galvanize the global health community, engage key stakeholders, build an inclusive movement, and strengthen the content and impact of the commission, LCoGS launched a Social Media (SM) campaign. This is the first SM Campaign of any Lancet Commission. METHODS: LCoGS Twitte

Abstract in UndeterminedThe present paper describes how the control of a radiator system connected to a district heating (DH) network via a heat exchanger can be optimized to provide the lowest possible DH return temperature. This can be achieved for each operating point by employing an optimal combination of radiator circuit supply temperature and circulation flow rate. The control algorithm grad
Although it is well known that the dynamic properties of rubber depend on both frequency and amplitude, there are few commercially available finite element codes that take account of these effects. This paper outlines a simplified procedure to extend the usability of the commercially available frequency dependent viscoelastic finite element models to also take account of the amplitude dependence.
This paper is a case study of the Swedish digital diplomacy activities in Egypt on social media. The author investigates how we can understand the purpose of the digital diplomacy carried out by the Swedish embassy and the ambassador in Egypt, by studying its content on the social media Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Digital diplomacy in this study means the use of social media within the framew
Globalization pressures have today inflicted significant changes in the way industrial enterprises are organized and how products are developed, manufactured and brought to market. A common denominator in many of these enterprises is the utilization of an organizational structure based on networks composed of divisions and supplier companies dispersed all over the world. ln these global enterprise

This master thesis was conducted at Volvo Car Corporation, VCC, in Gothenburg within the Manufacturing Engineering department. It is based on the P11-project (the new model S40) where the process verification has been examined and analyzed. The purpose of the thesis is to investigate the reasons behind remaining and new problems at late stages in the development process, as well as possibilities f
Den svenska transportsektorn står för ungefär en tredjedel av landets totala utsläpp av växthusgaser och släppte 2019 ut 16,4 Mt CO2-ekvivalenter. Av dessa står den tunga vägtrafiken för cirka 20 % och är efter passagerarfordonen den största källan till utsläpp av växthusgaser inom sektorn. I och med FN:s klimatpanels återkommande rapporter om klimatförändringen och den Europeiska Unionens nya kliThe Swedish transport sector accounts for roughly a third of the country’s total emissions of greenhouse gases, emitting 16.4 Mt CO2-equivalents in 2019. Of these emissions, the heavy road traffic accounts for 20 % and is the sectors largest source of greenhouse gas emissions after the passenger vehicle fleet. With the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's recurring reports on the climat
We examined undergraduate participants' (N = 98) self-related cognitive response to positive information about the self and how this response is related to global self-esteem and trait anxiety. Positive information about the self was defined as information that attributes positive qualities to the self or positive experiences for the self. The responses were measured by an open-ended questionnaire
This article is concerned with the estimation of aggregate relationships among a potentially large number of panel data variables in the presence of unobserved heterogeneity in the form of interactive effects, an empirically very relevant scenario that has not been considered before. One of our findings is that if the regressors load on the same set of latent factors as the dependent variable, whi
