If one takes a closer look at almost any building facade one will find biological growth. Although this can be seen as an integral part of an antique building, for modern buildings it is in most cases seen as an aesthetical problem. All building facades will most likely be discolored by biological growth by time, but in Sweden we have had many cases of newly built rendered facades that have been d

In this paper an inverse source problem is investigated. The measurement set-up is a reflector antenna covered by a radome. Equivalent currents are reconstructed on a surface shaped as the radome in order to diagnose the radome's interaction with the radiated field. To tackle this inverse source problem an analysis of a full-wave integral representation, with the equivalent currents as unknowns, i

Sammanfattning: Utgångspunkten för denna studie har varit studenten och dennes motivation för att lära och förbereda sig inför ett yrkesliv som civilingenjör. Vi konstaterar att man i planering och genomförande av en kurs bör ta hänsyn till de olika behov som finns hos studenten, läraren, lärarteamet, avdelningen/institutionen, andra kurser, universitetet och dess uppdragsgivare, samt näringslive

This thesis is built on three papers considering different problems in inventory control. The first paper considers a two-location newsboy model with the possibility of making lateral transshipments when needed. Usually, when considering newsboy models it is assumed that all demand in a period occurs at once. In our model we divide the period into a number of sub-periods, and we assume that there

This paper is a pilot study where Swedish Facebook users are interviewed in virtual focus groups - one consisting of politically active participants and one consisting of not politically active participants - using Facebook itself as the platform. The interviews concerned the attitudes of the participants towards political campaigns and recruitment within Facebook. The preliminary results show tha

Multiuser detection is a powerful tool for combating cochannel interference in multiple-access communication systems. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of achieving increased spectral efficiency in GSM-like TDMA networks by applying multiuser detection. Two special cases are considered: In the first scenario, two users are served simultaneously in the same cell. In the second one, two

The agile movement has received much attention in software engineering recently. Estab-lished methodologies try to surf on the wave and present their methodologies as being agile, among those Rational Unified Process (RUP). In order to evaluate the statements we evaluate the RUP against eXtreme Programming (XP) to find out to what extent they are similar and where they are different. We use a qual
