Abstract in UndeterminedOur world is changing and cities and regions are increasingly understood not only asplaces, but also as vital hubs in national and global networks, through which people,capital, goods and services flow to ensure the functioning of society, as we know it. Peopleand capital are increasingly concentrated in these hubs, which aside of positive effects onefficiency also is assoc
We present some results of the rigorous mathematical theory regarding scattering and propagation problems in chiral media, both in the frequency and the time domain.
We present the results of realistic N-body modelling of massive star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds, aimed at investigating a dynamical origin for the radius-age trend observed in these systems. We find that stellar-mass black holes, formed in the supernova explosions of the most massive cluster stars, can constitute a dynamically important population. If a significant ensemble is retained (her
In this paper we analyze two-dimensional (2D) pilot-symbol assisted modulation (PSAM) for wireless orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM). 2D-PSAM has been suggested for wireless OFDM by several authors and is included in a preliminary draft of the standard for European digital video broadcast. We generalize the analysis of single-carrier PSAM to the 2D time-frequency lattice of OFDM. W

As a first step towards synthesis of speaker age the hypothesis that spectral cues may be more important for age perception than F0 and duration was tested in a pilot listening experiment with male speaker stimuli consisting of natural, synthesized and resynthesized isolated words. Results indicate that spectral information is dominant over pitch as cues for age. Slow speech rate also seems to be
