Advances in Compact Heat Exchangers

State-of-the-art coverage of compact heat exchanger design and technology. This book, a special supplemental issue of the International Journal of Heat Exchangers, contains a selection of papers originally presented at the Fifth International Conference on Enhanced, Compact, and Ultra-Compact Heat Exchangers: Science, Engineering and Technology, which was held in Whistler, British Columbia, Canad

Biomass in a Sustainable Energy System

Popular Abstract in Swedish Användningen av fossila bränslen såsom kol, olja och naturgas svarar för mer än 70% av dagens globala utsläpp av koldioxid vilket är det största antropogena bidraget till växthuseffekten. Energieffektivisering och en ökad användning av förnybara energislag, t ex bioenergi, är två nyckelstrategier för att minska utsläppen av växthusgaser. Ett ökat utnytttjande av bioenerThe increased use of biomass for energy is as a key strategy in reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emission, which represents the largest anthropogenic contribution to the greenhouse effect. In this thesis, aspects of an increase in the utilisation of biomass in the Swedish energy system are treated. Modern bioenergy systems should be based on high energy and land-use efficiency since biomass resource

Optimization of a Bus-based Test Data Transportation Mechanism in System-on-Chip

The increasingamount of test data needed to test SOC (System-on-Chip) entailsefficient design of the TAM (test access mechanism), which is usedto transport test data inside the chip. Having a powerful TAM willshorten the test time, but it costs large silicon area to implementit. Hence, it is important to have an efficient TAM with minimalrequired hardware overhead. We propose a technique that make

"Prevailing Winds": An analysis of the Liturgical Inculturation Efforts of Karl Ludvig Reichelt

This dissertation deals with the question of Christian contextualization in a Chinese context, with special emphases on liturgical inculturation and the problem of colonization. The subject is studied through an analysis of the liturgical inculturation efforts of Karl Ludvig Reichelt, a Norwegian missionary who founded a separate mission work among Chinese Buddhist monks. The study is based on lit

Implementation of a Tool for Control Structure Assessment

A method for assessing disturbances in SISO loops has been developed. The method indicates if the SISO loop under consideration will benefit from an addition of feedforward control from a measured disturbance. An implementation in Java of the methodology is presented in the paper.

A Social Node Model for Realising Information Dissemination Strategies in Delay Tolerant Networks

In the emerging Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) content dissemination platform, mobile nodes opportunistically exchange content as they meet, with the intent of sharing content among nodes with common interests. During a meeting, nodes can exchange both content of direct interest to themselves as well as content that is of interest to a larger set of nodes that may be encountered in the future. The

Cyber-Crime Investigations: Complex Collaborative Decision Making

This paper reports on the challenges computer forensic investigators face in relation to collaborative decision making, communication and coordination. The opportunities, operational environment and modus operandi of a cyber criminal are considered and used to develop the requirements in terms of both skill sets and procedural support a forensics investigator should have in order to respond to the

Effects of Denervation and Infravesical Obstruction in the Rat Urinary Bladder

Popular Abstract in Swedish Råttans urinblåsa har studerats ur olika aspekter, sedan antingen ett standardiserat avflödeshinder åstadkommits eller hälften av urinblåsans nervförsörjning avlägsnats. Avflödeshindret har åstadkommits genom att en silkestråd knutits runtom urinröret så att det försnävats. Genom att en knappt mm-vid metallstav knutits om samtidigt och sedan avlägsnats, har graden av avMedian micturition volume decreased early after partial outlet obstruction, 24 hrs total obstruction and hemidenervation. Degeneration release of transmitter may explain this, assuming that bladder wall distension causes nerve degeneration. Micturition pressure decreased simultaneously in the partially denervated and 24 hrs obstructed groups, probably due to the reduced number of functionally inta
