Heat exchanger network pinch sets the limitations of heat recovery for existing network topologies. Improving the heat recovery within a pinched-network is independent of the areas of individual exchangers present in the network, rather the topology of the network must be altered. Such a change in the topology can be very capital intensive and in many cases seems not easy to implement. This resear

This deliverable presents channel measurement results for the scenariosOpen exhibition and Crowded auditiorium. The measurement procedureand equipment are described. Massive MIMO (MaMi) channel characteristicsand key parameters are extracted and used in an extended COST 2100channel model for MaMi. The initial validation performed shows that themodel is capable of reproducing the statistics in term

This thesis analyzes some aspects of the appropriation of labor time and natural space in the Inka Empire (ca. AD 1400 – 1532) in order to illuminate the cultural organization of Inka imperial metabolism. Rather than understanding Inka imperialism simply as a political process with socioecological consequences, it is investigated as an ecological process organized through specific cultural categor

This book provides linguists with a clear, critical, and comprehensive overview of theoretical and experimental work on information structure. Leading researchers survey the main theories of information structure in syntax, phonology, and semantics as well as perspectives from psycholinguistics and other relevant fields. Following the editors' introduction the book is divided into four parts. The

With the ever growing requirement for higher data rates, terminals supporting multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technologies (or MIMO terminals) are being developed for the beyond-3G wireless communication systems such as HSPA and LTE. To ensure that the terminals are capable of delivering the promises of MIMO technology, test systems for the performance evaluation of MIMO devices are needed.

Technological advancements in combination with significant reductions in price have made it practically feasible to run experiments with multiple eye trackers. This enables new types of experiments with simultaneous recordings of eye movement data from several participants, which is of interest for researchers in, e.g., social and educational psychology. The Lund University Humanities Laboratory r

This article focuses on fan experiences of place in the Scandinavian crime series The Bridge (Bron||Broen). It offers four in-depth portraits of fans representing different modes of engaging with geographies of the imagination based on participant observations and qualitative semi-structured interviews with 80 audience members conducted in Denmark, Sweden and the UK. The analysis draws attention t

This article explores civic engagement with the Danish/Swedish crime series The Bridge (Danmarks Radio/Sveriges Television 2011–) based on qualitative interviews with 113 audience members, and drawing on the notion of cultural citizenship. The perspective of cultural citizenship, as understood and operationalized mainly by Hermes, is married with critical perspectives on the crime drama genre and

The Swedish school system comprises three school types: preschool, compulsory school (9 years) and secondary school (3 years). The latest curriculum reform was completed in 2011, updating policy documents and restructuring syllabuses, clarifying subject specific abilities and knowledge requirements. In 2012, national tests in geography were instituted for years 6 and 9, yielding support for equal

In ubiquitous computing, end-user composition allows users to combine multiple single-purpose devices into new, interesting constellations. In PalCom – a ubiquitous middleware – this is achieved without the need to write program code. In this paper we present a solution that in the same way allows users to create Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) for such systems without coding. The approach is to

We use rich longitudinal survey and register data on Swedish individuals to examine the relationship between financial strain and mental health. Specifically, we consider the longitudinal relationships between payment difficulties and subjective (self-reported anxiety) as well as objective (psychiatric drug use) measures of mental ill-health. Among previously healthy individuals, payment difficult

This article investigates into narratives of Israeli history and identity and ways in which those can be understood as linked to the transformation of intractable conflicts. By using the case of Israeli New History, this study elaborates on the interplay between master and counter commemorative narratives of identity and history, and the potential impact of that interaction when it comes to the de

A recurrent problem in ecology and conservation biology is to estimate the risk of population extinctions. Extinction probabilities are not only imperative for conservation and management, but may also elucidate basic mechanisms of the regulation of natural populations. The usual way of modelling stochastic influence on population dynamics has been to assume that the external noise is uncorrelated

Numbers or densities of a natural population typically change over time. These fluctuations result from density-dependence mechanisms in the populations or external environmental variations. According to modern ecological research, time series describing population sizes and physical environments tend to be dominated by low-frequency fluctuations, whereas, contrary to this, simple population dynam
