Socioeconomic Status and Mortality during the Mortality Transition: A Micro-level Study of Age-specific Mortality in Rural Southern Sweden 1815-1894

This paper deals with socioeconomic differences in mortality among infants, children, adults, and elderly during the period of mortality decline in the nineteenth century. It uses multilevel Cox regression controlling for shared unobserved factors at the family level, and also compares the magnitude of the observed differences between socioeconomic groups with the impact of unobserved factors at f

Robustness of TAP-based Scan Networks

It is common to embed instruments when developing integrated circuits (ICs). These instruments are accessed at post-silicon validation, debugging, wafer sort, package test, burn-in, printed circuit board bring-up, printed circuit board assembly manufacturing test, power-on self-test, and operator-driven in-field test. At any of these scenarios, it is of interest to access some but not all of the i

On sensory feedback in hand prostheses

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling behandlar ämnet känselåterkoppling i handproteser. Att mista sin hand är en traumatisk upplevelse och den som har mist sin hand förlorar både känsel och motorik. En rudimentär greppfunktion kan återskapas genom att använda en handprotes. Nya och avancerade proteser som kontrolleras med hjälp av muskelsignaler finns numera på marknaden och dessa myoelektAmputation of the hand implies the loss of the ability to grasp and the ability to "feel". The grasping function can be primitively restored using an active prosthesis. Multi­articulating electrically powered hands have recently made their way to the market and these hands provide enhanced grasping and gripping capabilities. However, these hands provide no direct and conscious sensory feedback to

Cross-matching with interpreted warping of 3D streamer and 3D ocean-bottom-cable data at Valhall for time-lapse assessment

Legacy streamer data and newer 3D ocean-bottom-cable data are cross-matched and analysed for time-lapse analysis of geomechanical changes due to production in the Valhall Field. The issues relating to time-lapse analysis using two such distinctly different data sets are addressed to provide an optimal cross-matching workflow that includes 3D warping. Additionally an assessment of the differences b

Modellering och simulering av värmelast och effektbehov för konstfrusna isbanor

The aim of the thesis is to develop a model, based on well known physical and empirical formulas, to simulate the heat load on a rink of artificially frozen ice. A comparison of the results from this model and the results from other methods to determine heat load of the rink is made. The model calculates the heat load from convection, long wave radiation from the air temperature and from the sky t

Automatic Tuning of Simple Regulators

This paper proposes methods for automatic tuning of slmple regulators. The methods are robust and they require little apriori knowledge about the process. The paper presents the Ideas behind the methods and analysis. Apart from being useful In themselves, the methods will also give a solution to the longstanding problem of safe Initialization of more sophisticated adaptive controllers.
