The European Spallation Source (ESS) is an intergovernmental project building amultidisciplinary research laboratory based upon the worlds most powerful neutron source. The main facility will be built in Lund, Sweden. Construction is expected to start around 2013 and the first neutrons will be produced in 2019. The ESS linac will deliver 5 MW of power to the target at 2.5 GeV, with a nominal curre

New trellis constructions for compression of short data sequences are presented. Traditional low rate trellis source coding suffers from having a too small a reproduction alphabet. Governed by alphabet-constrained rate-distortion theory we propose a simple method which for a source coding rate of 1 bit per sample allows 2n reconstruction values for a trellis with 2n states. The proposed method is

Seismic refraction imaging is a technique that has seen an increase of applications in engineering during recent years. In the work presented here a case of refraction tomography in the city of Copenhagen is discussed. The survey included two modalities; 1. a surface survey where 13.9 kilometers of crooked lines along segments of the planned underground metro were mapped, 2. borehole “walk-away” s

Source separation systems for the management of domestic wastewater and food waste has been suggested as more sustainable sanitation systems for urban areas. The present study used an attributional life cycle assessment to investigate the carbon footprint and potential for nutrient recovery of two sanitation systems for a hypothetical urban area in Southern Sweden. The systems represented a typica

Electronic IDs enable people, companies and organizations to sign documents and authenticate online. Considering the potential losses, the security in an eID system is crucial. The eID system in Sweden today, BankID, is closed source and uses proprietary standards. In our thesis we have investigated if open standard and open source can be an alternative. First we reviewed the research about securi

Optimization is becoming a standard methodology in many engineering disciplines to improve products and processes. The need for optimization is driven by factors such as increased costs for raw materials and stricter environmental regulations as well as a general need to meet increased competition. As model-based design processes are being used increasingly in industry, the prerequisites for optim

The late Neoarchaean Qorqut Granite Complex is the youngest large igneous intrusion in the Nuuk region in southern West Greenland, where basement is primarily of Eoarchaean and Mesoarchaean age with a tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) composition. The Qorqut granite is generally undeformed and it intruded during a prolonged period, starting at ca. 2730 Ma, characterised by crustal reworking

Grunderna i cancerbehandling är kirurgi, strålterapi och behandling med cancerläkemedel, ofta i kombination med varandra. Regimer med cancerläkemedel som definierar det eller de läkemedel som används, deras doser, hur ofta och hur länge de ska ges, har utvecklats och används för olika cancerdiagnoser. Flera professioner inom sjukvården är involverade i behandlingen: läkaren som ordinerar läkemedleThe basics in cancer treatment are surgery, radiation therapy, and treatment with cancer drugs, often combined. Chemotherapy regimens that define the drugs used, the dosage, the frequency and duration of drug administration, have been developed and used for different cancer diagnoses. Several healthcare professionals are involved in the treatment: the physician prescribing the drugs, the pharmacis
