    Abstract : Floods pose a threat to society that can cause large socio-economic damages and loss of life in many parts of the world. Flood-forecasting models are required to provide simulations at temporal resolutions higher than a day in basins with concentration times smaller than 24 h. READ MORE

  4. 17. Back pain : long-term course and predictive factors

    Author : Paul Enthoven; Peter Croft; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : back pain; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Background. Better knowledge of the long-term course in patients treated in primary care for back pain (clinical course) and in patients that do not receive specific treatment after seeking care (clinical natural course) is needed to enable health professionals and their patients to understand the likely course of back pain and to make clinical decisions about treatment alternatives.

  5. 18. Gradient-Based Distributed Model Predictive Control

    Author : Pontus Giselsson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The thesis covers different topics related to model predictive control (MPC) and particularly distributed model predictive control (DMPC). One topic of the thesis is gradient-based optimization algorithms for solving the optimization problem arising in DMPC in a distributed manner. READ MORE

  6. 19. Fatigue limit, inclusion and finite lives - a statistical point of view

    Author : Sara Lorén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; censoring; likelihood; profile predictive likelihood; staircase test; extreme value; likelihood;

    Abstract : An important design property of steel is the fatigue limit, i.e. the load level where a specimen has infinite life. For the material it can also be defined an endurance limit, which is the stress level at which the specimen has a certain life. READ MORE

  7. 20. Prognostic and predictive factors for colorectal cancer

    Author : Masoud Karimi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer worldwide of which approximately 30% of cases are localized in the rectum. Rectal cancer accounts for around 700, 000 cases and 310, 000 deaths annually across the world with a global distribution that varies due to different lifestyles. READ MORE
