  2. 1. Capabilities of Convolutional Codes: Unequal Error Protection and More

    Author : Victor Pavlushkov; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Elektronik och elektroteknik; Electronics and Electrical technology; systemteori; Informatik; Informatics; systems theory; woven codes; unequal error protection; active input-distance; active output-distance; maximum slope; active distances; Convolutional codes; error-correcting capability;

    Abstract : Many communication systems obtain enhanced performance by using concatenated coding schemes. Turbo codes and woven convolutional codes are two examples of such schemes. READ MORE

  4. 2. Minimum-time sliding mode control of robot manipulators

    Author : Boyko Iliev; Ivan Kalaykov; Krzysztof Kozlowski; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; minimum-time sliding mode control; sliding mode control; maximum-slope sliding lines; Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems; robot manipulators; reglerteknik; Automatic control; Reglerteknik; Reglerteknik; Automatic Control;

    Abstract : Robot manipulators have a complex and highly nonlinear dynamics, accompanied with a high degree of uncertainty. These properties make them difficult for time-optimal control. The theory of sliding mode control can provide methods, able to cope with the uncertainty and nonlinearity in the system. READ MORE

  5. 3. Tales of Tailbiting Codes

    Author : Marc Handlery; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; maximum-likelihood decoding algorithm; minimum distance; active distance; woven convolutional code; tailbiting termination method; convolutional code; tailbiting code; Informatics; systems theory; Informatik; systemteori;

    Abstract : Tailbiting codes are error correcting codes and can be used in digital transmission systems. They are obtained by terminating convolutional codes into block codes. This thesis consists of an introduction to convolutional and tailbiting codes, and the Papers A--G that include the main results. READ MORE

  6. 4. The Fight on the Flights : Emergency evacuations – human physiological performance, leg muscle activity and gait biomechanics during exhaustive stair and slope ascent

    Author : Amitava Halder; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Stair climbing evacuation; Physical work capacity; Physiological constraints; Endurance; Energy expenditure; Oxygen consumption; Electromyography; Muscle fatigue; Incline gait biomechanics; Ground reaction forces; Required coefficient of friction;

    Abstract : Physical exhaustion can constrain stair ascending capacity during emergency evacuation. The overall aim of this research was to explore and compare stair ascending capacities and physiological limitations when using two different modes: 1) self-preferred pace on three different public stairways, and 2) four machine-controlled paces on a stair machine corresponding to different percentages of maximal aerobic capacity (V̇O2max).

  7. 5. An Investigation of the Influence of Knee Flexion Angle on the Activity of the Triceps Surae Muscles during the Heel-Raise Test

    Author : Kim Hébert-Losier; S. John Sullivan; Anthony G. Schneiders; José A. García; Univeristy of Otago; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biomechanics; Electromyography; Triceps surae; Achilles tendon; Plantar flexion; Heel raise test; Physiotherapy; Rehabilitation; Musculoskeletal; Movement analysis; Muscle endurance; Maximum voluntary isometric contraction;

    Abstract : Background: The heel-raise test (HRT) is used in clinical practice and research to assess the triceps suare (TS) muscles. The test involves repetitive unilateral heel-raises in upright stance. The test is administered with the knee straight for gastrocnemius medialis (GM) and lateralis (GL), and with the knee bent for soleus (SOL). READ MORE
