Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) provides real-time information about structural damage and its evolution over time, which supports decision-makers in managing structural integrity. However, traditional SHM systems, such as vibration-based systems with accelerometers, require laborious installation and maintenance of instrumentation, including sensors, cables, and acquisition systems directly in
We investigate vascular changes during Photodynamic therapy (PDT) of skin tumors using optical Doppler tomography (ODT). The effect of vascular shut down on tumor destruction is currently not known, and to optimize treatment it is relevant to investigate this issue further. Optical Doppler tomography is capable of measuring blood flow in biological tissue down to 1-2 mm with sub-mm/s velocity sens
Integrated models including optics, structures, control systems, and disturbances are important design tools for Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs). An integrated model has keen formulated for the European ELT and it includes telescope structure, main servos, primary mirror segment control system, wind, optics, wavefront sensor, deformable mirror, and an AO reconstructor and controller. There are t
We address the problem of optimizing resource allocation for Perceptually based Unequal Packet Protection (PUPP) in a packet based voice carrying network. For that purpose, we design a novel real-time working Perceptually Based Classifier (PBC) optimizing the assignment of voice packets to either a Premium (Pch) or an Ordinary (Och) transmission Channel with regard to packet perceptual importance.
Background: The adoption of air conditioning (AC) is growing rapidly in developing countries across the world which puts a high burden on electricity distribution systems. This development is mostly driven by income growth and building design, but also due to increasing outdoor temperatures and to provide indoor thermal comfort. Current indoor thermal comfort standards are based on western clothin
Safe languages like Java provide a much more programmerfriendly environment than the low-level languages in which real-time and embedded software have traditionally been implemented. However, an obstacle for widespread use of Java in control applications has been the predictability and real-time performance of garbage collection, and the cumbersome memory management associated with RTSJ NoHeapReal
This study investigated if clothing material with reflective properties has an effect on heat gain in pilot, specifically, under solar radiation. Two materials, conventional pilot suit material (Old) and material coated with coldblack® (New, Schoeller Technologies AG, Switzerland) were tested over variety of underwear layers and in a box simulating cockpit. A hot plate was used to measure textile
In this paper we present a method to characterize the acoustic trapping efficiency of nanoparticles and bacteria when using seeding particles. Through the use of fluorescent microscopy and video analysis, single particles/bacteria were counted as they entered the acoustic trap at different flow focusing ratios and by comparing the amount of trapped objects to the amount of objects that were lost f
Smart card data and survey data have different characteristics, which combined have the potential to enrich the total level of information as well as to reduce inherent biases in each dataset. This paper describes a fruitful procedure to use survey data from a smartphone application-based travel survey with prompted recall to validate data from smart card transactions in the same geographical area
Due to their direct coupling to the physiology of the cells, the physical properties are especially attractive as markers for sorting and characterization of cancer cells. Where molecular surface markers are lacking, the physical properties can instead serve as inherent markers for separation. This is especially interesting for cancer cells where there are indications that soft cells are more meta
Gasoline Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC) is a promising alternative combustion concept that can offer both high indicated efficiency and low exhaust emissions in terms of NOx and soot, compared to conventional diesel combustion (CDC). Previous research has shown that PPC can operate with gasoline-like fuels of varying RON numbers. Some of the most promising results come with the use of gasolin
The inherent properties of cells and micro-organisms is an under-explored source of specificity for particle sorting. In contrast to standard immunolabeling it allows us to perform fractionation without any chemical preparation of the sample. This improves the accessibility and affordability of the technology. Our contribution in the field is to extend the scope of deterministic lateral displaceme
Nodding syndrome is an emerging disease which have unknown transmission patterns and no properly established mechanisms for diagnosis leading to numerous hypothetical postulations. It has affected thousands of children in Uganda with debilitating effect and serious economic consequences. Spatial-temporal analysis may provide a quick mechanism to establish comparative understanding of the various h
We report a simplified, integrated and more efficient way of preparing DNA for analysis. We have developed a microfluidic platform that can purify DNA and subsequently label and stretch it on a surface. We have successfully extracted DNA from a gel-filled microfluidic channel using electrophoresis and subsequently stretched the DNA linearly by absorption to either a hydrophobic or a positively-cha
To evaluate the effect of antibiotic drugs, it is important that the cells that are killed can be sorted from the cells that are resistant to the antibiotics. Here we report a simple label-free method for the continuous separation of viable/non-viable cells using Electrokinetic Deterministic Lateral Displacement. In general, this opens up for continuous sorting of a population of cells that is hom
Support for Machine Learning (ML) applications in networking has significantly improved over the last decade. The availability of public datasets and programmable switching fabrics (including low-level languages to program them) presents a full-stack to the programmer for deploying in-network ML. However, the diversity of tools involved, coupled with complex optimization tasks of ML model design a
Background: Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) are highly prevalent in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and are associated with negative outcomes. However, NPS are currently underrecognized at the memory clinic and non-pharmacological interventions are scarcely implemented. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the Describe, Investigate, Create, Evaluate (DICE) method™ to improve the care for NPS in AD
