This paper contains a quantification and decision theoretical optimization of the posterior utilities for several options for monitoring campaigns on the particular case of fatigue life predictions of an orthotropic steel deck. The monitoring campaigns are defined by varying monitoring durations and phases. The decision analysis is performed with real data from the Structural Health Monitoring (SH
Using Deterministic Lateral Displacement (DLD), we are able to separate bacteria by their size and their chain length. This separation enables the study of these properties as factors of virulence.
The number of patients affected by Alzheimer's disease among the population is currently growing, while the availability of resources for their assistance is decreasing. A solution for this problem is provided by the use of Ambient Assisted Living technologies, with the objectives to prolong the independent living of patients at home, to relieve assistance burden on caregivers, and to improve care
The aim of this project is to make a model which could be used during risk identification in swedish underground stations. The model is based on a risk identification in T-centralen, Stockholm and will in a foreseeable way structure the risk sources that can affect personal safety. There will be suggestions concerning preventive measures in an underground station, both material and organizational.
High-elevation hydropower units in California might be sensitive to climate warming since they have been designed to take advantage of snowmelt and have low built-in storage capacities. Snowmelt is expected to shift to earlier in the year and the system might not be able to store sufficient water for release in high-electricity-demanding periods. Previous studies have tried to explore the climate
In this work we present an integrated system for whole chromosome analysis of single bacterium. Using whole genome barcoding techniques, which offer direct and rapid microscopic visualization of the entire genome in one field-of-view, we aim to rapidly identify individual bacterium. We are developing our device to achieve the crucial, and difficult process of isolating a bacterium, removing the DN
4MOST,1 the 4m Multi-Object spectrographic Survey Telescope, is an upcoming optical, fiber-fed, MOS facility for the VISTA telescope at ESO's Cero Paranal Observatory (Chile). The preliminary design of 4MOST features 2,400 fibers split into a low-resolution (1,600 fibers, 390-900 nm, R > 5; 000) and a high-resolution channel (800 fibers, three arms, ∼20-25 nm coverage each, R > 18; 000) with an Ec
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) can provide valuable information for maintenance-related activities and post-disaster emergency management. However, as with any technological system, SHM systems can be susceptible to errors due to malfunctioning. Therefore, it is essential to assess the potential for malfunctions and the associated costs of maintenance and repair when evaluating the long-term b
The #FridaysForFuture climate protests mobilized more than 1.6 million people around the globe in March 2019. Through a school strike, a new generation has been galvanized, representing a historical turn in climate activism. This wave of climate protest mobilization is unique in its tactics, global scope and appeal to teenage school students. Media coverage of these protests and high-level nationa
The paper reviews a number of cellular neural network implementations on a field-programmable gate-array. It illustrates experimentally, how these implementations can be used to measure from images or to create dynamic, autonomous processes that facilitate measurements within topographic maps. Applications range from image understanding to robot navigation

We performed a large nested case-control study within the Finnish and Icelandic maternity cohorts to verify/falsify the association of maternal EBV infection with an increased risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in the offspring found in previous studies. All hematologic malignancies diagnosed among children born during 1983 to 2006 in Finland and 1997 to 2005 in Iceland were identified thr
In this paper we report upon some results of an empirical study involving employees from 32 SMEs in the UK on how they approach socio-technical principles in the design of their work systems. We are particularly interested in what extent employees are engaged with decision making, change in work practices and job satisfaction. Our findings reveal that employees would prefer more responsibilities,
Topic-independent expressions for conveying agreement and disagreement were annotated in a corpus of web forum debates, in order to evaluate a classifier trained to detect these two categories. Among the 175 expressions annotated in the evaluation set, 163 were unique, which shows that there is large variation in expressions used. This variation might be one of the reasons why the task of automati
Background: Individualized cancer rehabilitation should be an integral part of cancer care. Contact nurses play a key role in identifying patient needs and coordinating evidence-based interventions to support rehabilitation. However, cancer rehabilitation remains marginal in current practice, as contact nurses face challenges due to the lack of systematic processes for assessment, intervention, an
A matched filter composed of a time lagged feedforward artificial neural Network (TLFN) and a pulse-shaping filter is used in a noisy environment to detect R-waves for pacemakers. The TLFN reduces the influence of lower frequencies in the invasive electrogram (EGM) signals, e.g. P and T waves, and conditions the EGM to optimize the performance of the dynamically updated matched filter. Detector pe
