Autonomous vehicle is being developed for widespread deployment. Its reliability and safety are critically dependent on advanced wireless technologies, e.g., vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication. The frontend of a V2X system needs an antenna module that enables the vehicle to reliably connect to all other networks. Designing V2X antenna is challenging due to the complex in-vehicle environment

Syncope is a frequent event in the general population. Approximately 1%-2% of all emergency department admissions are due to syncope and at least one third of all people experience fainting in their life. Although consequences of cardiac syncope are generally feared, non-cardiac syncope is much more common and may be associated with severe injuries and quality of life impairment, particularly in o

Simultaneous detection of multiple signals for common biochemical/electrochemical reactions is a challenging area of research for comparative studies. Based on our previous work with electrochemically assisted thermal biosensors, a hybrid biosensor has been developed for the simultaneous monitoring of the electrochemically generated current and the thermal signal produced in association with enzym

As the interest in weak-affinity antibodies has been widened by their introduction to various analytical techniques such as HPLC, capillary electrophoresis and biosensors, there has been a need for new screening/monitoring methods. In this study, weak-affinity chromatography was adopted to screen/monitor directly for monoclonal antibodies in ascites. Monoclonal antibodies against a carbohydrate an

A rationale for an individuals-oriented landscape approach to sustainable land-use planning based on an analysis of bio-geo-physical components as well as the human components of the landscape is presented. A toolbox for analysing individuals’ decision-making and valuations in the landscape is described. The toolbox can provide evidence on the drivers of individuals’ decision-making in the landsca

Botaniker donerar varje år tusentals pressade växter till Lunds universitets biologiska museum. Ibland handlar det om nyheter i Sveriges vilda flora. Nya för år 2020 är exempelvis prärielök, brittsommaraster och rosenfibbla.The first Swedish records of 19 taxa that first attracted attention in 2020 in the Lund Botanical Museum (LD) are reported and briefly discussed., viz. Allium ampeloprasum var. ampeloprasum, Allium cernuum, Arisaema amurense, Aster amellus, Crepis rubra, Cyclamen coum subsp. coum, Digitaria sanguinalis subsp. pectiniformis, Eleocharis cf. montevidensis, Fraxinus angustifolia, Helichrysum italicum,

Damage detection systems (DDSs) provide information on the integrity of structural systems in contrast to local information from inspections or non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques. In this paper, an approach is developed that utilizes DDS information to update structural system reliability and integrate this information into risk and decision analyses. The approach includes a novel performanc

Asset integrity and management is an important part of the oil and gas industry especially for existing offshore structures. With declining oil price, the production rate is an important factor to be maintained that makes integrity of the structures one of the main concerns. Reliability based and risk- based inspection (RRBI) constitutes an efficient method to optimize inspection planning. Basing

A technique for enhancing the bandwidth of a broadside tri-modal patch antenna is described. The key idea of the technique is to incorporate a dual-resonance structure into the broadside tri-modal patch geometry. By increasing one edge of the tri-modal patch while decreasing its size at the opposite edge, the resulting structure can be viewed as two super-imposed Y-shaped structures of different r

We present a novel texture compression scheme, called iPACKMAN, targeted for hardware implementation. Interms of image quality, it outperforms the previous de facto standard texture compression algorithms in the majority of all cases that we have tested. Our new algorithm is an extension of the PACKMAN texture compressionsystem, and while it is a bit more complex than PACKMAN, it is still very low

Digital twins, which are a new concept in industrial control systems (ICS), play a key role in realizing the vision of a smart factory, and they can have different effective use cases. With digital twins, we have virtual replicas of physical systems so that they precisely mirror the internal behavior of the physical systems. Hence, synchronization is necessary to keep the states of digital twins i

This article presents the kaonic atom studies performed at the INFN National Laboratory of Frascati (Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati dell’INFN, LNF-INFN) since the opening of this field of research at the DAΦNE collider in early 2000. Significant achievements have been obtained by the DAΦNE Exotic Atom Research (DEAR) and Silicon Drift Detector for Hadronic Atom Research by Timing Applications (S

Understanding the mechanism of action of compounds capable of inhibiting amyloid-fibril formation is critical to the development of potential therapeutics against protein-misfolding diseases. A fundamental challenge for progress is the range of possible target species and the disparate timescales involved, since the aggregating proteins are simultaneously the reactants, products, intermediates, an

Systematics is described for annotation of variations in RNA molecules. The conceptual framework is part of Variation Ontology (VariO) and facilitates depiction of types of variations, their functional and structural effects and other consequences in any RNA molecule in any organism. There are more than 150 RNA related VariO terms in seven levels, which can be further combined to generate even mor

Ett systematiskt arbetsmiljöarbete med fokus på alla åldrar bör fokusera på människors förmåga och vilja att arbeta, exempelvis genom en modell med fyra olika sfärer som relaterar till olika sätt att definiera ålder.Den första sfären handlar om hälsoeffekter och relaterar till den biologiska åldern. De andra sfärerna rör privatekonomi, stöd och gemenskap samt arbetstagarnas möjligheter att utföra
