  2. 1. International Law and the Rescue of Refugees at Sea

    Author : Martin Ratcovich; Said Mahmoudi; Marie Jacobsson; Natalie Klein; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; law of the sea; maritime law; refugee law; human rights; migration; asylum; law enforcement; smuggling; refugees; migrants; boat people; rescue; non-refoulement; legal theory; interpretation of treaties; systemic integration; Public International Law; folkrätt;

    Abstract : International law provides a duty to rescue everyone in distress at sea. Rescue at sea often entails recovering survivors and bringing them on board ships or other rescue units. While their subsequent delivery and disembarkation may not always be controversial, they frequently are if those assisted are refugees and migrants. READ MORE

  5. 3. Computational electromagnetics : software development and high frequency modeling of surface currents on perfect conductors

    Author : Sandy Sefi; Jesper Oppelstrup; Francisco Saez de Adana; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; High frequency approximations; Maxwell’s equations; Method of Moments; Physical Optics; Geometrical Theory of Diffraction; Extraction Extrapolation; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : In high frequency computational electromagnetics, rigorous numerical methods be come unrealistic tools due to computational demand increasing with the frequency. Instead approximations to the solutions of the Maxwell equations can be employed to evaluate th electromagnetic fields. READ MORE

  6. 4. Retrieval of Ocean Surface Currents and Winds Using Satellite SAR backscatter and Doppler frequency shift

    Author : Anis Elyouncha; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Doppler centroid analysis; Bayesian inversion; ocean surface winds; Ocean surface currents; synthetic aperture radar; along-track InSAR;

    Abstract : Ocean surface winds and currents play an important role for weather, climate, marine life, ship navigation, oil spill drift and search and rescue. In-situ observations of the ocean are sparse and costly. Satellites provide a useful complement to these observations. READ MORE

  7. 5. Synthetic Aperture Radar Signal and Image Processing for Moving Target Indication and Side Lobe Suppression

    Author : Thomas Sjögren; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Synthetic Aperture Radar; Space time adaptive processing;

    Abstract : The thesis summarizes a selection of my research within Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). Mainly the research is aimed at applying and developing signal processing methods to single channel and multi channel SAR for wideband systems. SAR systems can generate images looking very similar to optical pictures, i.e. READ MORE
