Popular Abstract in Swedish I en komponent som blir utsatt för en upprepande på- och avlastning, så kallad cyklisk belastning, kan små sprickor initieras och börja växa i materialet. Detta fenomen kallas för utmattning och kan få katastrofala följder, såsom haveri. För att med god säkerhet kunna dimensionera mot utmattning är det viktigt att på en mikro skala förstå de fenomen som ligger bakom sprFatigue implies repeated loading and unloading of a structure, and components subjected to fatigue might experience nucleation of cracks, and subsequent crack propagation. This might lead to catastrophic consequences, such as complete failure of a structure. In order to accurately dimension against fatigue it is of uttermost importance to have a thorough understanding of the mechanisms behind the

A general overview of the animal styles I and II during the Merovingian Age in Southern Germany.

A differential geometric approach based on the gap metric is taken to examine the uniqueness of solutions of the equations describing a feedback interconnection. It is shown that under sufficiently small perturbations on the Fréchet derivative of a nonlinear plant as measured by the gap metric, the uniqueness property is preserved if solutions exist given exogenous signals. The results developed r

An industrial PI controller with dead-time compensation is presented. The advantage of the new controller compared with other dead-time compensating controllers is that it contains only three adjustable parameters; the gain, the integral time, and the dead time. The simple parametrization is obtained by calculating the process model needed for the dead-time compensation from the controller paramet

Integral action is required in many controllers inorder to solve real world problems. Modeling errors anddisturbances are examples of issues that can be dealtwith by using controllers with integral action. This paper exploresthe use of disturbance observers to introduce integral action intoan output feedback controller. In particular, theproposed solution is generalized to include the case of plan

This paper considers a two-echelon distribution inventory system with a central warehouse and a number of retailers. There is direct customer demand also at the warehouse. If this upstream demand requires a high service, it may be advantageous to give higher priority to customer orders compared to retailer replenishments. We suggest and evaluate techniques for handling this situation. One techniqu

This paper studies regional museum, archives and arts education commissions of the Region of Scania, reformed in 2009, from a policy analysis perspective. It describes the background, design and implementation of the new policy and analyses its effects. The paper gives detailed information on the complexities of policy tool design and implementation, and discusses it in the light of regional gover

In this paper we present one approach to understand palpability from the perspective of eco-systems of palpable devices. We will introduce the notion of Palpable Interaction Ecology that particular focus upon the properties that emerge from the interaction between people, their practices and palpable devices. This approach is derived from research into the use of pervasive healthcare services that

Accurate system planning and performance evaluation requires knowledge of the joint impact of scheduling, interference, and fading. However, current analyses either require costly numerical simulations or make simplifying assumptions that limit the applicability of the results. In this paper, we derive analytical expressions for the spectral efficiency of cellular systems that use either the chann
