Stochastic optimal power flow can provide the system operator with adequate strategies for controlling the power flow to maintain secure operation under stochastic parameter variations. One limitation of stochastic optimal power flow has been that only line flows have been used as security constraints. In many systems voltage stability and small-signal stability also play an important role in constrai
I will present a study, concerning crime writer Henning Mankell, and his stories about chief inspector Kurt Wallander at the Ystad police department in southern Sweden. In a cooperation between the local Tourist Office and the film production company producing films based on the Mankell/Wallander stories, a concept has been developed where tourists are invited to follow a ”murder walk” in Ystad. D
Popular Abstract in Swedish SVENSK SAMMANFATTNING Den kliniska effekten av läkemedel som administreras till näsa eller lunga beror på läkemedlets egenskaper och på dess lokala deposition. Depositionsstudier är därför värdefulla för att kunna karakterisera olika beredningar. Depositionen påverkas av partiklarnas storlek och hastighet, genom att stora partiklar med hög hastighet ger upphov till en hThe local deposition, pharmacokinetics, and systemic activity of inhaled and intranasal glucocorticosteroids in different formulations and devices(ICSs) has been investigated. After nasal administration of the ICS budesonide (Bud), the systemic availability (F) was found to be significantly higher from an aqueous pump spray and from the powder inhaler Turbuhaler, than from a pressurized metered do
Utilities, such as steam and cooling water, are often shared between several production areas at industrial sites, and the effects of disturbances in utilities could thus be hard to predict. In addition, production areas could be connected because of the product flow at the site. This paper introduces a simple modeling approach for modeling the relation between utility operation and production. Us
Advances in Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), intelligent vehicles and cooperative systems are enabling traffic and transport solutions that are both safer and more environmentally acceptable. While it is well known that high dependability is a desirable feature it has a price, and the level of dependability needed varies from application to application. Typical examples are cooperative safety
Three approaches of iterative learning control (ILC) applied to a Gantry-Tau parallel kinematic robot aC algorithms using 1) measured motor angles, 2) tool-position estimates, and for evaluation purposes, 3l position. The approaches are compared experimentally, with the tool performance evaluated using extert is concluded that the tool performance can be improved using tool-position estimates in t
In this paper an order reduction method for spatially distributed models is presented. Such systems may be modeled as two nodes interacting with each other through feedback. A model of one of the nodes reduced in such a way, that the closed loop performance is approximated. The method exploits a coprime factor description of the closed loop model and semidefinite programming. The method is related
Clock synchronization is a necessary component in modern distributed systems, especially WSN. Despite the great effort and the numerous improvements, the existing synchronization schemes do not yet address the cancellation of propagation delays. Up to a few years ago, this was not perceived as a problem, because the time-stamping precision was a more limiting factor for the accuracy achievable wit
The PID controller is the most common controller and it is taught in most introductory automatic control courses. To develop an intuitive understanding of the basic concepts of the PID controller and PID parameter tuning, interactive and freely available tools are important. A PID module for educational purposes has been implemented in JGrafchart, a freely available development environment for the
