The physical bounds for antennas above a ground plane is analyzed in this paper. Optimal antenna G/Q ratio and Q factor are calculated using convex optimization from stored electric and magnetic energy matrices, obtained from a method of moments solver. Physical bounds for a patch antenna with different heights above a ground plane are investigated. Results are verified using commercially availabl
An explanation is given for the paradoxical fact that, at low signal-to-noise ratios, the systematic feedback encoder results in fewer decoding bit errors than does a nonsystematic feedforward encoder for the same code. The analysis identifies a new code property, the d-distance weight density of the code. For a given d-distance weight density, the decoding bit error probability depends on the num
The importance of social circumstances for middle-age women’s general subjective well-being (SWB) was investigated in a representative sample of Swedish women, age 43 (N = 369). The results showed non-existent to moderate relationships between a number of social circumstances variables and general SWB. The strongest relationship was found between marital status and global life satisfaction. Being
Background: Teachers undertaking scholarly inquiry into teaching and learning can improve education. Many universities wish to promote such undertakings e.g. with teaching awards and academies.Summary of work: The aim of this study is to better understand circumstances where teachers develop towards a Scholarship of teaching and learning, SoTL, in a research-intensive faculty of medicine and healt
In this study an alternative integration scheme for elasto-plasticity based on a Diagonal Implicit Runge-Kutta (DIRK) scheme originally proposed by Ellsiepen (1999) is investigated. In contrast to clasical approaches, the DIRK scheme is applied to the balance of momentum as well as the constitutive evolution equations. The presented numerical algorithm is applied to an elastoplastic bounadry value
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den rykande startpistolen eller Konsten att ta tid på en flygande elektron Flygande elektroner kan berätta mycket om hur världen sitter ihop. Elektroner som lämnar ytan av något material avslöjar både vilka atomer som finns i materialet och hur de kemiska bindingarna ser ut. Allt detta är nödvändigt att förstå när man vill utveckla nya material – till exempel för kretTime-of-flight (TOF) techniques for energy analysis have been common in electron spectroscopy for many decades. TOF-based electron spectrometers benefit from higher transmission and information rate compared to their main competitor: the hemispherical analyser; the drawback being their lower energy resolution. However, the advent of angle-resolved TOF spectrometers for electron energy analysis cha
