Towards a shared image. Supervision in artistic research as acts of collaborative knowledge creation

This chapter departs from the question: How can the supervision of artistic research in music influence and promote agency for PhD candidates? Supervision is seen in the context of on-going institutional change and discussed as encompassing the following aspects: (i) making the candidate pass, (ii) conducting artistic collaborations, (iii) evaluating artistic development and quality, and (iv) crea

Rate-Boosting Using Strong Crosstalk in Next Generation Wireline Systems

Next-generation wireline systems may exploit fre- quencies up to several hundred MHz on short lines. Strong crosstalk coupling, comparable to the direct paths, is one of the main channel characteristics at high frequencies. Instead of fully cancelling all crosstalk, we utilize strong crosstalk paths to boost data-rate for active users. Two linear precoding schemes, based on maximum ratio-combining

Individual Producer Responsibility in the WEEE Directive - From Theory to Practice?

In the current discourse over what constitutes successful Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) policy implementation, there is an on-going debate over the ability of programme design to include an appropriate incentive mechanism to stimulate producers to improve the design of their products for reduced life cycle impacts, and especially the impacts and costs from the end-of-life management. At t

Studies of cadmium, mercury and lead in man. The value of X-ray fluorescence measurements in vivo

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bestämning av koncentrationen av kadmium, kvicksilver och bly i människokroppen. Värdet av röntgenfluorescensmätningar in vivo.Two XRF methods have been used for in vivo studies of mercury, cadmium and lead. Persons with a history of long-term occupational mercury exposure had elevated mercury concentrations in their kidneys (up to 65 µg/g). The minimum detectable concentration varied between 12 and 45 µg/g. Battery plant workers had elevated cadmium concentrations in their kidneys (up to 350 µg/g) and liver (up to 80 µg/

The great escape: how exoplanets and smaller bodies desert dying stars

Mounting discoveries of extrasolar planets orbiting post-main-sequence stars motivate studies to understand the fate of these planets. In the traditional 'adiabatic' approximation, a secondary's eccentricity remains constant during stellar mass-loss. Here, we remove this approximation, investigate the full two-body point-mass problem with isotropic mass-loss, and illustrate the resulting dynamical

Manual Control and Stabilization of an Inverted Pendulum

The problem of stabilizing an inverted pendulum on a cart while enabling manual control of the cart velocity is treated. Introduction of an input saturation nonlinearity makes the problem challenging in the sense that the system may be driven to a state where recovery is not possible. A controller based on the controllability set of the inverted pendulum, which ensures stability and tracking of co
