This paper investigates the mean square error optimal time-frequency kernel for estimation of the Wigner-Ville spectrum of a certain class of nonstationary processes. The class of locally stationary processes have a simplified covariance structure which facilitates analysis. We give a formula for the optimal kernel in the ambiguity domain and conditions that are sufficient for the optimal time-fre
Effects of ambient and elevated temperature and atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]) on CO2 assimilation rate and the structural and phenological development of shoots during their first growing season were studied in 45-year-old Norway spruce trees (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) enclosed in whole-tree chambers. Continuous measurements of net assimilation rate (NAR) in individual buds and s
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens syfte är att ge ett bidrag till att belysa hur olika teorier och modeller kan förklara den sociala, kulturella och psykologiska situation som en avgränsad grupp kvinnor med narkotikaproblem befinner sig i. I avhandlingen görs en ansats att integrera ett socialpsykologiskt perspektiv med ett kvinnoforskningsperspektiv och ett personlighetspsykologiskt perspThe purpose of this study was to systematically examine the social, cultural and psychological situation of a group of women with drug addiction, and to gain an understanding of it.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Introduktion: 1) Prostatacancer Prostatakörteln Prostatan, eller blåshalskörteln, är belägen strax nedanför urinblåsan hos män, där den omsluter urinrörets översta del. Denna, i normala fall valnötsstora körtel, producerar ett sekret som utgör en del av sädesvätskan. Hos yngre män uppstår ibland infektioner i prostatakörteln. Många äldre män får en godartad prostatafThis thesis is based on research concerning epidemiological, clinical, and psychological aspects of familial and hereditary prostate cancer. Epidemiology: Male first-degree relatives of prostate cancer patients had a three-fold increased prostate cancer risk. The risk was higher for relatives of younger patients than for relatives of older patients, most likely due to the effect of the higher pre
A description of texture evolution at large strain plasticity is developed. Texture evolution is defined in terms of changes taking place in the substructure of the material. The changes in the substructure are specified by means of a tangent map defined in the same manner as for the continuum in terms of a multiplicative decomposition. It is shown that the description of the changes in the substr
The aim of this thesis is to map the paradoxical limit of the in-between. In its most basic form the thesis is a paradox in itself, for how am I to comprehend and communicate the ever-changing world in a language which is characterised by fixed points and stable relations? The thesis consists of three main parts: a prologue, six chapters and an epilogue. Each of these parts can be read separatly,
