  2. 1. User involvement in housing recovery : Cases from Haiyan affected areas in the Philippines

    Author : Ivette Arroyo; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; User involvement; housing recovery; Capability Approach; Capability space; evolutionary housing; Critical Realism; vulnerability; resilience; causal mechanisms; opportunities; choices; capacities; agency; typhoon Haiyan; social structures; National Housing Authority; Gawad Kalinga; We Effect; types of involvement; levels of involvement;

    Abstract : The aim of this study is to develop a better understanding of the relation between housing recovery and user involvement from a capability perspective. The thesis studies housing recovery in areas affected by typhoon Haiyan, which struck the Philippines on 8th November 2013. READ MORE

  4. 2. Doctoral Thesis: Massive MIMO in Real Propagation Environments

    Author : Xiang Gao; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Massive MIMO; very-large MIMO; multi-user MIMO; channel measurements; channel modeling; 5G; sum-rate capacity; antenna selection; signal processing;

    Abstract : Mobile communications are now evolving towards the fifth generation (5G). In the near future, we expect an explosive increase in the number of connected devices, such as phones, tablets, sensors, connected vehicles and so on. Much higher data rates than in today's 4G systems are required. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis is based on the Internet experiences of people withsignificant mobility/physical impairments who are proficient andexperienced computer users in their computer world but havelimitations in mobility that severely restrict their functioning inthe physical world. The Internet functioning of this group isanalysed by means of the factors attitude, control and enabling,with the main focus on what is achievable when all accessproblems such as unadapted interfaces, beginners’ difficulties andthe digital divide are overcome.

  6. 4. Rank Reduction with Convex Constraints

    Author : Christian Grussler; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; low-rank approximation; model reduction; non-convex optimization; Douglas-Rachford; matrix completion; overlapping norm; k-support norm; atomic norm;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses problems which require low-rank solutions under convex constraints. In particular, the focus lies on model reduction of positive systems, as well as finite dimensional optimization problems that are convex, apart from a low-rank constraint. READ MORE

  7. 5. Model-Based Optimization of Combustion-Engine Control

    Author : Gabriel Turesson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : Model Predictive Control MPC ; Partially Premixed Combustion; Pressure Sensor Feedback; Model Based Control; Particle Filter; Multiple Fuel Injections; Gasoline Compression Ignition; Model Predictive Control MPC ; Partially Premixed Combustion PPC ; Low Temperature Combustion; Model Based Control; Multiple Fuel Injections; Pressure Sensor Feedback; Particle Filter; Gasoline Compression Ignition;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis is motivated by the need to reliably operate a compression-ignition engine in a partially premixed combustion (PPC) mode. Partially premixed combustion is a low temperature combustion concept, where the ignition delay is prolonged to enhance fuel-air mixing in the combustion chamber before the start of combustion.
