2. 1. Mathematical Tools and Software for Analysis and Design of Nonlinear Control Systems

   Author : Tommy Svensson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : The theory of nonlinear control systems has developed rapidly In this thesis we will give a survey of some mathematical tools, in which we focus on constructive theory. In particular we will describe the theory of Volterra series and exact linearization in detail, since we believe that these theories have the potential to become standard mathematical tools in control theory.

4. 2. On Spectrally Efficient Continuous Phase Modulation

   Author : Tommy Svensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; adjacent channel interference; additive white Gaussian noise {AWGN} ; convolutional codes; minimum Euclidean distance; continuous phase modulation CPM ; bandwidth efficiency; co-channel interference; reduced complexity detectors; optimized phase pulses.;

   Abstract : Spectrally efficient partial response continuous phase modulation (CPM)for wireless links is considered. Continuous phase modulation defines constantenvelope phase codes, which are advantageous when using non-linear amplifiers. READ MORE

5. 3. On the notion of mental illness : Problematizing the medical-model conception of certain abnormal behaviour and mental afflictions

   Author : Tommy Svensson; Lennart Nordenfelt; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; anti-psychiatry; concept of mental illness; medical model of mental illness; theory of psychiatry; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

   Abstract : This study inquires into some polemics concerning the notion of mentalillness or disease. Some central arguments in the debate on psychiatry, of the 1960's and early 70's, are focused on.The analysis is performed in two steps. READ MORE

6. 4. Spectrally Efficient Continuous Phase Modulation

   Author : Tommy Svensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; spectrum efficiency; Laurent decomposition; additive white Gaussian noise AWGN ; trellis coded modulation TCM ; non-linear channels; continuous phase modulation CPM ; maximum likelihood sequence detection MLSD ; distance spectrum; convolutional codes;

   Abstract : Spectrally efficient continuous phase modulation (CPM) systems and generalizations of CPM for wireless links are considered. Continuous phase modulation defines constant envelope phase codes, which are advantageous when using non-linear amplifiers. READ MORE

7. 5. Metabolic consequences of a Paleolithic diet in obese postmenopausal women

   Author : Caroline Blomquist; Tommy Olsson; Elin Chorell; Per-Arne Svensson; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Postmenopausal women; Paleolithic diet; randomized diet intervention; fat metabolism; low-grade inflammation; circulating fatty acids; diet validation; obesity; insulin resistance; Postmenopausala kvinnor; Paleolitisk kost; randomiserad kostintervention; fettmetabolism; fetma; låggradig inflammation; cirkulerande fettsyror; kostvalidering; fetma; insulin resistens; medicin; Medicine;

   Abstract : BackgroundObesity, in particular abdominal adiposity, is associated with elevated fatty acids and pro-inflammatory adipokines, which are linked to ectopic fat storage and insulin resistance. During menopause, there is a redistribution of fat from the peripheral to abdominal depots. READ MORE
