Summation rules for the antenna input impedance

The Kramers-Kronig relations are probably the most well known dispersion relations [1]. These relations relate the real and imaginary parts of the constitutive relations. Summation rules are closely related to dispersion relations, and they ar important for consistency checks as well as deriving various physical bounds. In [2, 3, 4, 5], a summation rule that relates the absorption and scattering c

Emotional images in medicine

This paper introduces ideas for future research that explore non-diagnostic uses of images in medicine. The dynamics are studied from a subjective and emotional perspective, a standpoint common in art and design but rarely considered relevant in academic medicine and science. The fundamental aim of the project is to study how images can influence and alter the afflicted individuals’ experiences of

There and Back Again - nocturnal migratory behaviour of birds during spring and autumn

This dissertation explores the migratory behaviour of nocturnally migrating passerines and common swifts (Apus apus). Birds passing Lund (southern Sweden) and Abisko (northernmost Scandinavia) where sampled using tracking radar. The aim has been to investigate potential diverging strategies between spring and autumn migration. We have found that both passerines and swifts compensate for wind drift

The water-supply system in Roman Pompeii

This study focusses on the urban infrastructure for water supply in Roman Pompeii. The water distribution network of lead pipes was constructed inside the city walls, at the time when the city was connected to an aqueduct. Life for the Pompeiians changed considerably when aqueduct water started running continuously in street fountains all around the city. The study is based on previous research an

Strategies for Computing Switching Feedback Controllers

We consider the problem of computing suboptimal feedback switching controllers for discrete dynamical systems. The paper shows how to combine convex optimization techniques with relaxed dynamic programming. We apply the method to several problems that have been considered recently in the literature. A particularly interesting example is given by a DC-DC converter. The proposed algorithm has severa
