As the number of devices connected via 5G has grown tremendously over the years since its introduction, the number of unused frequency spectra has grown smaller and smaller, leading to more overlap and smaller gaps between neighbouring spectra. To ensure that all current and future devices that occupy these spectra can work together without interference or interruptions in service, care needs to b
A Free Electron Laser (FEL), is a device that generates extremely coherent and brilliant radiation using electrons accelerated to relativistic velocities in a particle accelerator. The process utilises similar equipment to what is used at a synchrotron source like MAX IV, but in addition there is an interaction between the relativistic electron beam and the generated radiation to achieve an expone
Concrete is a building material that is normally cast according recipes, where a larger proportion of cement in the mixture results in a faster strength development and increased ultimate strength. The compressive strength, which can be considered as the most important property of concrete, is usually measured by a standardized procedure, where a test specimen is subjected to a progressively incre
The global financial crisis of 2007 shook up the European economic landscape through many channels.
