This guide presents a joint effort of projects funded under the European Research Area for Climate Services (ERA4CS) (http://www.jpi-climate.eu/ERA4CS), a co- funded action initiated by JPI Climate with co-funding by the European Union (Grant 690462), 15 national public Research Funding Organisations (RFOs), and 30 Research Performing Organisations (RPOs) from 18 European countries.

Proponents of religious non-doxasticism standardly aim to show how a commitment to traditional religion can be rational in the absence of religious belief. We demonstrate how the non-doxastic framework can be given a much wider application. In a study on Swedish semi-secularity, sociologist Ann af Burén has discovered a pattern where subjects simultaneously entertain naturalistic and supernatural
Factorization methods are frequently used for structure from motion problems (SfM). In the presence of noise they are able to jointly estimate camera matrices and scene points in overdetermined settings, without the need for accurate initial solutions. While the early formulations were restricted to affine models, recent approaches have been show to work with pinhole cameras by minimizing object s
Being physically active as part of everyday life reduces breast cancer risk. Less is known whether the benefits of an active lifestyle differ depending on the timing of physical activity in life or anthropometric characteristics. The aim of this study was to bring further insights to the association of physical activity in relation to menopausal status and body composition with breast cancer risk
A new third polymorph of copper(II) decanoate has been found by two methods: from the crystallization of the saltacid solution and from a specific thermal treatment of the polymorph obtained in n-heptane. The new polymorph, whose crystal structure has been solved for the first time, is the most stable from the thermodynamic point of view. It presents a bilayer structure, but with two different typ
Abstract in UndeterminedThe MPEG Reconfigurable Video Codingworking group is developing a new library-based pro-cess for building the reference codecs of future MPEGstandards, which is based on dataflow and uses an actorlanguage called Cal. The paper presents a code genera-tor producing RTL targeting FPGAs for Cal, outlinesits structure, and demonstrates its performance on anMPEG-4 Simple Profile
Objective:To evaluate reliability, internal consistency and construct validity of the Posture and Postural Ability Scale for adults with cerebral palsy.Design:Psychometric evaluation of a clinical assessment tool.Setting:Rehabilitation centres in Sweden and Iceland.Subjects:Thirty adults with cerebral palsy aged 19-22 years, six people at each level I-V of the Gross Motor Function Classification S
Objective: We have previously shown the capacity of tenascin-C (TN-C) to induce inflammatory mediators and matrix degradation in vitro in human articular cartilage. The objective of the present study was to follow TN-C release into knee synovial fluid after acute joint injury or in joint disease, and to correlate TN-C levels with markers of cartilage matrix degradation and inflammation. Method: Hu
The formation of platoons, where groups of vehicles follow each other at close distances, has the potential to increase road capacity. In this paper, a decentralized control approach is presented that extends the well-known constant headway vehicle following approach to the two-dimensional case, i.e., lateral control is included in addition to the longitudinal control. The presented control scheme
The size of the authentication tag represents a significant overhead for applications that are limited by bandwidth or memory. Hence, some authenticated encryption designs have a smaller tag than the required privacy level, which was also suggested by the NIST lightweight cryptography standardization project. In the ToSC 2022, two papers have raised questions about the IND-CCA security of AEAD sch
The widespread deployment of digital technologies has made the globe an interconnected world. Among other necessities of the digitalized world, cybersecurity is a crucial component. Therefore, education and proper training of the cybersecurity workforce are essential for building a strong national and global community. However, a significant shortage of proficient cybersecurity experts is reported
This paper develops a control integration methodology that can be used to balance competing performance objectives. The target application for the method is blood glucose management for diabetic patients. The true system model is uncertain and changes over time. Multiple controllers have been designed with competing performance objectives in mind. In the proposed method, on-line predictors are use
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det mesta i min avhandling handlar om utveckling av uppreningsprocesser i läkemedelsindurstin. Den stora kostnaden för läkemedelsföretagen ligger oftast inte i att producera ett läkemedel, utan att ta fram en produkt. Det är också långt ifrån alla kandidater till läkemedel som till slut blir en produkt. Detta kan till exempel bero på att kandidaten inte var tillräckligtIn my thesis, I have modeled adsorption chromatography and simulated, calibrated, and analyzed models of adsorption chromatography. While my main focus has been modeling and calibration of the models by estimating the parameters, the models used have been partly new. The simulations are differentiated from the modeling in that the modeling describes the partial differential algebraic equation, whi
Vehicular traffic density is a key factor in determining the behaviour of radio overlapping and thus impacts performance of data and safety message communication in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs). In this paper, we propose a novel density model for urban traffic systems and employ this model for the purpose of spatial-temporal analysis of radio overlapping. To model traffic density, we conside
Collaboration involving student–industry activities entails a complex interaction between university, students, and industry. The university–student–industry triangle identified here is neither static nor balanced, and each of the three intertwined relationships displays distinguishing characteristics. Each has its own structure; the activity phases of the relationships are not synchronous, and ea
