In cases of suspected scaphoid fracture where the initial radiographs are negative, a supplementary MRI, or alternatively CT, should be carried out within three to five days. Fracture classification, assessment of dislocation as well as evaluation of fracture healing is best done on CT with reconstructions in the coronal and sagittal planes, following the longitudinal axis of the scaphoid. After a

Prospects to use III-V technology to increase the performance of key millimeter wave circuits are discussed. We use 60 GHz wavelet generators to form coherent pulses with controllable pulse lengths down to 25 ps under low-power operation. The transmitters are used to demonstrate transmission at high data rates and very low bit-error-rates with simple modulation schemes (OOK) in direct links over s

Currently there is an ongoing push towards a circular economy. Governments, the EU, green NGOs, think-tanks, companies and their industry organizations are all advocating more circular solutions meaning that the current linear take-make-use-lose model of consumption should be replaced with a reuse-repair-recycle circular model. The circular economy is being heralded as one of the main, if not the

Structural variants (SVs) rearrange large segments of DNA1 and can have profound consequences in evolution and human disease2,3. As national biobanks, disease-association studies, and clinical genetic testing have grown increasingly reliant on genome sequencing, population references such as the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD)4 have become integral in the interpretation of single-nucleotide v

Evacuation models can adopt different approaches for the simulation of human behaviour in fire. This paper provides an overview of the most commonly used modelling methods to represent the evacuation process in a fire scenario. This is presented through a structure matching the engineering time-line model of evacuation. The evacuation model development process is discussed considering both data-dr

Cloud computing has emerged as a key technology in the latest decade and continues to be applied to manage the computing needs of new domains. As a result, the requirements on predictable behavior in the cloud increase, thus the hosted applications need to be recognized as both fault-tolerant and responsive even under difficult conditions.In this thesis, new modeling methods and decision-making st

In most control schemes it is advantageous to introduce integrators to eliminate off-set due to load disturbances. It is, however, also important to introduce nonlinearities, for instance due to limitations in actuators. The interaction between the integrator and the nonlinearities will cause problems with reset windup. Ways to handle anti-reset windup for different controller configurations are d

Cell-Free networking is one of the prime candidatesfor 6G networks. Despite being capable of providing the 6Gneeds, practical limitations and considerations are often neglectedin current research. In this work, we introduce the conceptof federations to dynamically scale and select the best set ofresources, e.g., antennas, computing and data resources, to servea given application. Next to communica

In this work, we describe a new Monte Carlo (MC) simulation method to investigate highly coupled fluids in confined geometries at a constant chemical potential. This method is based on so-called multi-scale Hamiltonian methods, wherein the chemical potential is determined using a more amenable Hamiltonian for a fluid in an "outer"region, which facilitates standard methods, such as grand canonical

Previous research has argued that related variety enhances regional innovation as inter-industry knowledge spillovers occur more easily between cognitively similar industries. In this study, we engage with empirical operationalization of what is ‘related’ in related variety. We argue, based on theoretical grounds, that estimating regional knowledge production functions requires related variety mea

The contribution contains a comprehensive presentation of the legal regulations for the indemnification of National Socialist injustice—notably the restitution of property of Jewish victims of the Holocaust—, using the example of the law of the Federal Republic of Germany. It is also devoted to the contextualization of indemnification and reparation policy in terms of international law, public law

Although it is vital for organizations to learn in order to be competitive, efficient, and innovative, it is one of the profound organizational dilemmas: organizations understand and have learnt that it is important to learn and yet it is difficult to ensure organizational learning. This is a personal and reflexive note about what I have learnt from research and practice about various attempts to

Editor's notes: Non-Nyquist sampling-based event-triggered systems can enable adaptive sampling of IoT nodes resulting in large energy savings. This article reviews introductory concepts and building blocks of non-Nyquist sampling for cardiovascular monitoring systems. It further analyzes the performance of a knowledge-based adaptive sampling strategy applied to biophysiological signals such as el

Today, a considerable portion of embedded systems, e.g., automotive and avionic, comprise several control applications. Guaranteeing the stability of these control applications in embedded systems, or cyber-physical systems, is perhaps the most fundamental requirement while implementing such applications. This is different from the classical hard real-time systems where often the acceptance criter

In this thesis we study functionals of the type \( \mathcal{K}_{f,A,\b}(\x)= \mathcal{Q}(f)(\x) + \|A\x - \b \| ^2 \), where \(A\) is a linear map, \(\b\) a measurements vector and \( \mathcal{Q} \) is a functional transform called \emph{quadratic envelope}; this object is a very close relative of the \emph{Lasry-Lions envelope} and its use is meant to regularize the functionals \(f\).
