  2. 2. Out-of-Round Railway Wheels - Causes and Consequences An Investigation Including Field Tests, Out-of-Roundness Measurements and Numerical Simulations

    Author : Anders Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; polygonalization; wheel flat; full-scale measurements; wear modelling; impact load detector; railway wheel out-of-roundness; wheel removal criterion; dynamic train-track interaction; corrugation;

    Abstract : Causes and consequences of out-of-round railway wheels are investigated through literature studies, full-scale field experiments, out-of-roundness measurements, and numerical simulations. Both defects around the complete wheel circumference (e.g. polygonal wheels with wavelengths up to one wheel circumference) and local defects (e. READ MORE

  3. 3. The role of social participation in municipal-level health systems : the case of Palencia, Guatemala

    Author : Ana Lorena Ruano; Miguel San Sebastián; Francoise Barten; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Social participation; community participation; community heath workers; primary health care; Palencia; Guatemala; folkhälsa; Public health;

    Abstract : Background: Social participation has been recognized as an important public health policy since the declaration of Alma-Ata presented it as one of the pillars of primary health care in 1978. Since then, there have been many adaptations to the original policy recommendations, but participation in health is still seen as a means to make the health system more responsive to local health needs, and as a way to bring the health sector and the community closer together.

  4. 4. Modeling drying of iron ore pellets

    Author : Anna-Lena Ljung; Graham Nathan; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Iron ore pellets are a highly refined product supplied to the steel making industry for use in blast furnaces or direct reduction processes. The use of pellets offers many advantages such as customer adopted products, transportability and mechanical strength yet the production is time and energy consuming. READ MORE

  5. 5. Optimization of Rotations in FFTs

    Author : Fahad Qureshi; Oscar Gustafsson; Mario Garrido; Jarmo Takala; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Discrete Fourier transform; Fast Fourier transform; twiddle factor multiplication;

    Abstract : The aims of this thesis are to reduce the complexity and increasethe accuracy of rotations carried out inthe fast Fourier transform (FFT) at algorithmic and arithmetic level.In FFT algorithms, rotations appear after every hardware stage, which are alsoreferred to as twiddle factor multiplications.
