Both Sweden and Denmark have experienced an increase in the number of people informing the social and tax authorities that their neighbors are cheating on social benefits or earning illegal incomes through ‘black work’ (‘angiveri’ om social bedrageri eller sort arbejde). At the same time, many municipalities and the social and tax authorities have established hot lines or web portals where citizen

This paper presents computationally efficient implementations for Iterative Adaptive Approach (IAA) spectral estimation techniques for uniformly sampled data sets. By exploiting the methods inherent low displacement rank, together with the development of suitable Gohberg-Semencul representations, and the use of data dependent trigonometric polynomials, the proposed implementations are shown to off

The high Q-factor (low bandwidth) and low efficiency make the design of small antennas challenging. Here, convex optimization is used to determine current distributions that give upper bounds on the antenna performance. Optimization formulations for maximal gain Q-factor quotient, minimal Q-factor for superdirectivity, and minimum Q for given far-field are presented. The effects of antennas embedd

The use of Commercial-off-the-Shelf (COTS) software has become more and more important in state-of-the-art and state-of-the-practice software and system development. The use of COTS software promises faster time-to-market, reduced development cost, increased productivity, and the possibility for companies to focus on their own core competencies. At the same time COTS software raises risks such as

Objectives. At the request of the European Commission and in the framework of the European Machinery Directive, research was conducted jointly in five different laboratories to develop specifications for surface temperature limit values for the gripping and handling of cold items. Methods. Four hundred and fourteen experiments were run where male and female subjects were invited to grip for up to

Shadowing from vehicles can degrade the performance of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication systems significantly. It is thus important to characterize and model the influence of common shadowing objects like cars properly. For multilink systems it is essential to model the joint effects on the different links. However, the multilink shadowing effects in V2V channels are not yet well understood.

This paper presents a study on how climate conditions at numerous locations in Sweden affect the risk of onset of mould on wood sheltered outdoors. The results indicate that the risk is clearly higher in the south compared to the north of Sweden. These differences are mainly explained by colder and dryer winter periods in the north which is unfavorable for development of mould. The results also sh
