  2. 1. Accuracy of turbocharged SI-engine simulations

    Author : Fredrik Westin; KTH; []
    Keywords : boosting; turbocharging; supercharging; modelling; simulation; turbine;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis deals mainly with modelling ofturbocharged SIengines. A model of a 4-cylinder engine was runin both steady state and transient conditions and the resultswere compared to measured data. Large differences betweenmeasurements and simulations were detected and the reasons forthis discrepancy were investigated. READ MORE

  4. 2. Visual Object Tracking and Classification Using Multiple Sensor Measurements

    Author : Yixiao Yun; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sensor fusion; Riemannian manifold; visual pattern classification; multiple view geometry; Visual object tracking; boosting; multiple sensor measurement;

    Abstract : Multiple sensor measurement has gained in popularity for computer vision tasks such as visual object tracking and visual pattern classification. The main idea is that multiple sensors may provide rich and redundant information, due to wide spatial or frequency coverage of the scene, which is advantageous over single sensor measurement in learning object model/feature and inferring target state/attribute in complex scenarios.

  5. 3. Boosting young citizens’ deontic status : Interactional allocation of rights-to-decide in participatory democracy meetings

    Author : Simon Magnusson; Mats Landqvist; Lina Nyroos; Camilla Lindholm; Södertörns högskola; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; youth participation; decision-making; inclusion; deontics; participatory democracy; jointness; conversation analysis; Utbildningsvetenskapliga studier; Studies in the Educational Sciences;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the social organization of rights-to-decide in participatory democracy meetings where adolescents are invited. In such meetings, young citizens are given the opportunity to influence decision-makers and participate in determining future political action. READ MORE

  6. 4. Mixture Effects of Environmental Contaminants

    Author : Erik Lampa; Monica Lind; Jonas Björk; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mixtures; Environmental Contaminants; Atherosclerosis; Metabolic Syndrome; Boosting; Epidemiology;

    Abstract : Chemical exposure in humans rarely consists of a single chemical. The everyday exposure is characterized by thousands of chemicals mainly present at low levels. Despite that fact, risk assessment of chemicals is carried out on a chemical-by-chemical basis although there is a consensus that this view is too simplistic. READ MORE

  7. 5. Boosting behavioral change in residential electricity consumption : demand response programs and feedback

    Author : Cajsa Bartusch; Lars Wester; Monica Odlare; Thomas Porathe; Mikael Larsson; Kajsa Ellegård; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : As part of realizing national and European climate ambitions, it is imperative to bring about increased energy efficiency and consumption flexibility in the residential sector of the Swedish power market. In addition to governmental policy instruments to this end, market-based measures play an important role in making behavioral change in domestic electricity use happen. READ MORE
