  2. 1. On the impact of temperature perturbations on the creep of sensitive clay

    Author : Yanling Li; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thermal cycles; sensitive clays; oedometer tests; temperature; natural bonding; apparent preconsolidation pressure; multi-physics modelling; geothermal; static thermal loading;

    Abstract : Temperature affects the soil response, but is not fully understood and quantified and thus often ignored. The temperature fluctuations resulting from energy foundations and construction activities, such as excavations and soil stabilization, however, may lead to changes in the hydromechanical response of the clay.

  4. 2. Research and reflections on European air pollution policy support models

    Author : Stefan Åström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Economic perspectives; Decomposition analysis; Policy support modelling; Short-lived Climate Pollutants; Climate metrics; Air pollution; International shipping; Economic methodology; Integrated assessment modelling; Cost-benefit analysis;

    Abstract : European emissions to air of SO2, NOx, PM2.5, NH3 and NMVOC still today cause harm to human health and the environment. These pollutants are associated with the premature death of ~400 000 people annually in the EU (25 000 perished in traffic accidents 2017). Improvements are expected but problems will persist.

  5. 3. Ethics of User Involvement in Sensitive Design Situations

    Author : Susanne Lindberg; Magnus Bergquist; Maria Åkesson; Maja van der Velden; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ethics; participatory design; user involvement; design research; children; schizophrenia; cancer; sensitive; vulnerable; design; participation; principles; digital peer support;

    Abstract : While this era of digital technology brings great possibilities for improving the lives of many people with digital healthcare services, the design of these services in turn present challenges that are ethical in nature. Participatory Design (PD) values user involvement in design from a democratic, empowerment and ethical perspective. READ MORE

  6. 4. Kademlia on the Open Internet : How to Achieve Sub-Second Lookups in a Multimillion-Node DHT Overlay

    Author : Raúl Jimenez; Seif Haridi; Björn Knutsson; Arnaud Legout; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dht; p2p; distributed systems; kademlia;

    Abstract : Distributed hash tables (DHTs) have gained much attention from the research community in the last years. Formal analysis and evaluations on simulators and small-scale deployments have shown good scalability and performance. READ MORE

  7. 5. Pointwise Maximal Leakage : Robust, Flexible and Explainable Privacy

    Author : Sara Saeidian; Tobias J. Oechtering; Mikael Skoglund; Giulia Cervia; Catuscia Palamidessi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Privacy; information leakage; pointwise maximal leakage; disclosure prevention; inferential privacy; mechanism design.; Dataintegritet; informationsläckage; punktvist maximalt läckage; avslöjningsprevention; inferentiell dataintegritet; mekanismdesign.; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : For several decades now, safeguarding sensitive information from disclosure has been a key focus in computer science and information theory. Especially, in the past two decades, the subject of privacy has received significant attention due to the widespread collection and processing of data in various facets of society. READ MORE
