Analytical On-Body Propagation Models for the Channel around the Body based on Attenuation of Creeping Waves over an Elliptical Surface

Wireless wearable medical devices located on the opposite side of the body communicate through creeping waves. The creeping waves undergo exponential attenuation with distance. Hence, an analytical propagation model is useful to estimate the link loss for a reliable link. In this document, we have presented analytical link loss models for the wireless propagation channel between the devices locate

The Auditor at Work – A study of auditor practice in Big 4 audit firms

By combining different aspects of auditing and by focusing on the individual auditor and observing auditors at work, this dissertation explores the auditing concept. It focuses on activities carried out by auditors in local settings and how the macro-level phenomenon of “auditing” is realised in micro-level, day-to-day audit work. In doing this, the following research question is addressed: What d

Tone at the top: building a culture of compliance in company codes of conduct

Paper presented at the American Anthropological Association, Panel on Glitches, rollouts and stakeholders: the social life of policy jargon. Words have a life, especially in the anthropology of policy. This panel focuses on the social dynamics of policy language, particularly the integration of bureaucratic terminology with metaphors and imagery from other fields and knowledge domains. Policy init

The Microporous Metal in the Polymer Processing - Carbon Dioxide Assisted Mould Temperature Control

In this thesis a carbon dioxide assisted cooling technique for primarily injection moulds, a part of the so called ToolVac™ moulding technology, has been studied. The cooling technique is based on the injection of liquid carbon dioxide into microporous mould steel. The study is an introductory examination focused on experimental work, of the cooling technique and the possibilities it offers. A tes

Comparison of testing clothing thermal resistance on 2 thermal manikins

Abstract in Undetermined The paper compares clothing thermal resistance of the same ensemble tested by different thermal manikins in different laboratories. It also examines the consistence of the two groups of total thermal resistance by Paired-Sample T Test method, which proves that there is no remarkable difference in testing results under the same experiment method and requirement. It is of gr

Some Like It Hot - Automating an Electric Kettle Using Palcom

In this demo we will show how devices from different vendors, using different protocols, can be combined and made to work together without detailed low-level programming by the user. The small example we have chosen uses a radio-controlled power socket from one vendor and a temperature sensor from another vendor. We use these to create a remotely controlled electric kettle, which keeps the water a
