  1. 1. Health effects of heatwaves : short and long term predictions

    Author : Christofer Åström; Bertil Forsberg; Kristie L. Ebi; Scott Sheridan; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Heatwave; health impact assessment; early warning system; mortality; morbidity; climate change;

    Abstract : Background: Climate change is defined by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as changes in the state of the climate associated with changes in the mean and/or the variability of its properties. Climate change will affect temperatures both as an increase in mean temperature as well as changes in the frequency of temperature extremes. READ MORE

  2. 2. Criminal Careers in the Long Run : Patterns and Predictions of Criminal Convictions across Age, Time, and Gender

    Author : Fredrik Sivertsson; Anders Nilsson; Olof Bäckman; Torbjørn Skardhamar; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Criminal career; Recidivism; Life course; Longitudinal; Birth cohort; Gender; kriminologi; Criminology;

    Abstract : Why is it that a small proportion of the population accounts for the majority of crime? This question has stimulated a great deal of theoretical and methodological controversy in criminology. In essence, the debate is rooted in different theoretical underpinnings of continuity and change in crime, and the extent to which it is possible to foresee a life of crime by zeroing in on at-risk juvenile offenders.

  3. 3. Channel Estimation and Prediction for 5G Applications

    Author : Rikke Apelfröjd; Mikael Sternad; Emil Björnson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Channel estimation; Channel prediction; Channel smoothing; Linear estimation; Kalman filter; Massive MIMO; Coordinated Multipoint transmission; Robust precoding; Predictor antennas; Limits of predictability; Long range predictions; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Signal Processing; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot signalbehandling;

    Abstract : Accurate channel state information (CSI) is important for many candidate techniques of future wireless communication systems. However, acquiring CSI can sometimes be difficult, especially if the user equipment is mobile in which case the future channel realisations must be estimated/predicted. READ MORE

  4. 4. Predicting the Long-Term Insulation Performance of District Heating Pipes

    Author : Camilla Persson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; heat conduction; polyurethane foam; insulation capacity; diffusion; thermal conductivity; cyclopentane; solubility coefficient; long-term performance;

    Abstract : The aim of the studies that comprise this thesis was to predict the heat loss over timefrom a range of district heating pipes insulated with closed-cells foam. The thermalconductivity of the foam changes over time when it is not diffusion-tight encapsulatedagainst the environment, as diffusion alters the cell gas composition until it reachesequilibrium with the surrounding air.

  5. 5. Predictor Antennas : Enabling channel prediction for fast-moving vehicles in wireless broadband systems

    Author : Joachim Björsell; Mikael Sternad; Anders Ahlén; Fredrik Tufvesson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Predictor antenna; Channel prediction; Long-range prediction; Massive MIMO; Spline interpolation; Channel aging; Outdated CSI; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Signal Processing; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot signalbehandling;

    Abstract : Many advanced transmission techniques utilize channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter (CSIT) to improve throughput, spectral efficiency, power efficiency, and other performance metrics. Estimating CSI accurately is important to fully benefit from many of these techniques. READ MORE
