As a by-product of a meeting between my university’s vice-chancellor and the manager of the largest bank in the small southern town of Ystad in 2006, I, almost accidentally, soon after came to commence teaching and researching media production, production studies, media industries studies or film and media industry studies, as the subject finally came to be called at Lund. The teaching part involv
Mesoscopic simulations with two-dimensional (2D) models have been performed to elucidate the dynamics of deformable red blood cells (RBCs) in deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) devices. Several shapes of posts, including circular, diamond, square and triangular structures and RBCs with different rigidities are considered. In comparison to rigid particles, the deformable RBCs exhibit much mor
This chapter presents a flexible platform that supports prototyping up to 20 MHz bandwidth 128-antenna multiple input, multiple output (MIMO). It devotes theory, design, implementation, and prototyping of Massive MIMO for 5G communication systems. The chapter overviews the principles and theory of Massive MIMO. It describes the channel modeling system with a focus on specific phenomena of large sc
A resampling method for quantitative MRS is presented that retains absolute concentrations. Averaging the spectra from a subset improved the concentrationestimates via increased SNR. Using short-TE STEAM spectra from human thalamus, the influence of subset size was systematically studied and verifiedagainst conventional bootstrap re-sampling. Even small subsets provided considerably better signal-
The formation of smart Lab-on-a-Chip (LOC) devices featuring integrated sensing optics is currently hindered by convoluted and expensive manufacturing procedures. In this work, a series of 3D-printed LOC devices were designed and manufactured via stereolithography (SL) in a matter of hours. The spectroscopic performance of a variety of optical fibre combinations were tested, and the optimum path l
We have fabricated a device in which hollow nanowires (HNWs) lying on a glass surface are connected to microfluidic channels for the purpose of guiding DNA and to characterize the fluidic properties of our HNWs. The dimensions of our HNWs (inner diameter 10-80 nm, outer diameter 50-200 nm and length several μm) can be made on a scale much smaller than the size of a cell and on the same order of ma
Large eddy simulations (LES) and experiments (planar laser-induced fluorescence of the hydroxyl radical (OH-PLIF) and pressure transducer) have been carried out on a gas turbine burner fitted to an atmospheric combustion rig. This burner, from the Siemens SGT-800 gas turbine, is a low NOx, partially premixed burner, where preheat air temperature, flame temperature, and pressure drop across the bur
Denna studie syftar till att preliminärt utvärdera förändringar i risken för cyanobakteriella blomningar i en eutrof sjö, Vombsjön, som ligger i södra Sverige och testa hur näringsämnen (fosfor och kväve) påverkar algväxten. Ytvatten som sjöar har stor betydelse för dricksvattenförsörjningen, till exempel hälften av dricksvattnet i Sverige är från ytvatten. Enligt riskmatrisen har Vombsjön en storThis study aims to preliminarily evaluate changes in the risk of cyanobacterial blooms in a eutrophic lake, Lake Vombsjön, in the southern Sweden and test the role of nutrients (phosphorus and nitrogen) in algae formation. Surface water such as lakes service great importance for drinking water supply, such as half of the drinking water in Sweden is from surface water. According to risk matrix, Lak
Energy used in buildings is responsible for more than 40% of energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of the EU and their share in cost-efficient GHG mitigation potentials is estimated to be even higher. In spite of its huge savings potential of up to 80%, achievements are very slow in the building sector and much stronger political action seems to be needed. One important step in thi
It is estimated that about 30 000 people a year are successfully resuscitated after having suffered an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Europe. The number of patients that are successfully resuscitated after an in-hospital cardiac arrest is not known, but it can be assumed that this figure is even higher than that after an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The aim of the Swedish Resuscitation Counc
Peptide synthesis was carried out in a variety of organic solvents with low contents of water. The enzyme was deposited on the support material, celite, from an aqueous buffer solution. After evaporation of the water the biocatalyst was suspended in the reaction mixtures. The chymotrypsin-catalyzed reaction between Z-Phe-OMe and Leu-NH2 was used as a model reaction. Under the conditions used ([Z-P
The overall aim of this article is to contribute to a research-based understanding of the increasing invisibility of web search engines in society and to discussions about the potential impact of this invisibility. It examines how search engine use and online search activities are represented in national and regional reports on internet habits and experience published by public foundations and pol
Abstract submitted to ISEE 2012 Theme: The Political Economy of Green Development By Rikard Warlenius PhD Candidate Human Ecology Division Lund University, Sweden 2011.11.24 Calculating Climate Debt. A Comparison and a Proposal The notion of climate debt has invoked widespread interest in the last few years. First conceptualized in 1999 within the Millennium movement for (financial) debt cancella
