A 70 pJ/b Configurable 64-QAM Soft MIMO Detector
An area and power efficient high-throughput VLSI implementation of a 4 × 4, 64-QAM soft multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) detector, that is suitable for high-order constellation schemes is presented. The proposed MIMO detector utilizes information contained in the discarded paths to improve the bit-error-rate (BER) performance, and then reduces computational complexity using three innovative i

The Security Guard and the Boy : Organisational Crisis Responses to Iconic Imagery
This paper examines organisational responses to eyewitness footage as a mediator in crisis communication. Eyewitness photographs and films is a growing genre of visuals that are difficult for organisations to respond to, because they are regarded as more authentic and true than other images of crisis events. In addition, it is here argued that widely circulated eyewitness imagery often involve ico
Analysis of speech production real-time MRI
Recent advances in real-time magnetic resonance imaging (RT-MRI) have made it possible to study the anatomy and dynamic motion of the vocal tract during speech production with great detail. The abundance of rich data on speech articulation provided by medical imaging techniques affords new opportunities for speech science, linguistics, clinical and technological research and application developmen
Performing collaborative platform design in the sharing economy: A community approach
Electrocatalytic proton reduction by thiolate-capped triiron clusters [Fe3(CO)9(μ3-SR)(μ-H)] (R = iPr, tBu)
The redox behaviour and electrocatalytic proton reduction ability of the thiolate-capped triiron clusters [Fe3(CO)9(μ3-SR)(μ-H)] (1, R = iPr; 2, R = tBu) have been investigated. In CH2Cl2, both show a quasi-reversible reduction and an irreversible oxidation. The thiol substituent has a significant influence on their reduction potentials (E1/2 = −1.24 V for 1 and E1/2 = −1.40 V for 2 vs. Fc+/Fc) bu
Bereavement stressors and psychosocial well-being of young adults following the loss of a parent – A cross-sectional survey
Purpose: The knowledge about young adults who have lost a parent to cancer is limited, and to reach a broader understanding about this group, this study used the Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement (Stroebe and Schut, 1999) as a theoretical framework. The purpose of this study was to describe loss- and restoration-oriented bereavement stressors and psychosocial wellbeing of young adults
Literature review on renovation of multifamily buildings in temperate climate conditions
In Sweden, approximately 1.4 million dwellings were built 1946–1975. Today, a considerable part of these are in need of renovation for various reasons. Research results, as well as experiences and outcomes from renovation projects could facilitate in performing more efficient renovations. As an aid for further research, this paper aims to compile and review relevant literature that may support in
Differential correlations between maternal hair levels of tobacco and alcohol with fetal growth restriction clinical subtypes
Maternal exposure to tobacco and alcohol is a known cause, among others, for fetal growth restriction (FGR). Clinically, FGR can be subclassified into two forms: intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and small for gestational age (SGA), based on the severity of the growth retardation, and abnormal uterine artery Doppler or cerebro-placental ratio. This study aimed at investigating any differentia
Computational investigation of the dust hole effect on the heat transfer and friction factor characteristics in a U bend channel
In this study, effects of a dust hole and its location on the flow structure, endwall heat transfer and friction factor in a U bend channel used for a gas turbine blade tip cooling are numerically studied. The dust hole is placed on the endwall of a U bend at different locations. The U bend channel without dust hole is considered as Baseline. The Reynolds number ranges from 50,000 to 440,000. Resu
Impact of sample crushing on porosity characterization of hardened cement pastes by low temperature calorimetry : Comparison of powder and cylinder samples
The impact of sample crushing on the detected porosity of hardened cement pastes by low temperature calorimetry (LTC) was studied using powder and cylinder samples. Two types of cements, CEM I and CEM III were used to prepare the pastes. A model porous material, MCM-41, was also used in order to investigate some aspects of the measurement and the evaluation approach. The powder and cylinder sample
Understanding one's body and movements from the perspective of young adults with autism : A mixed-methods study
Background: There are but a few studies of how persons with autism perceive their bodies and movements. Difficulties in perceiving the surrounding world along with disturbed motor coordination and executive functions may affect physical and psychological development. Aims: To explore the experiences of body and movements in young adults with autism and how two physiotherapeutic instruments may cap
The Swedish grommet register – Hearing results and adherence to guidelines
Objectives: The insertion of grommets is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures in children. The underlying reason might be otitis media with effusion (OME) with concomitant hearing loss, recurrent acute otitis media (rAOM) or a combination of the two. Sweden has a national quality register for children receiving grommets with the purpose of evaluating how treatment guidelines are
Osborn waves following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest—Effect of level of temperature management and risk of arrhythmia and death
Background: The Osborn or J-wave, an upright deflection of the J-point on the electrocardiogram (ECG), is often observed during severe hypothermia. A possible relation between Osborn waves (OW) and increased risk of ventricular arrhythmia has been reported. We sought to determine whether the level of targeted temperature management (TTM) following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) affects the
Adolescents’ motives for selling sex in a welfare state – A Swedish national study
In addition to money or other compensation, other motives for selling sex may be important in a welfare country such as Sweden. The aim of this study was to carry out an exploratory investigation of adolescents’ motives for selling sex in a population-based survey in Sweden. A total of 5839 adolescents from the third year of Swedish high school, mean age 18.0 years, participated in the study. The
