Model separability indices for efficient dynamic simulation

This paper proposes a means to quantify the aptitude of a dynamic model to be partitioned into weakly coupled submodels. The proposal applies to both linear and nonlinear systems, is largely independent of their scale, and requires information that is easy to provide on the part of the analyst. The presented indices can be exploited in different manners, from easing numerical integration on monoli

On the thermal broadening of core levels in metals due to many‐electron effects

Ferrell's expression for the XPS lineshape is derived in a formalism which explicitly takes the electron—electron interaction into account. Also the corresponding expression for X-ray absorption is given. In the presence of other broadenings, which are comparable or larger than kT, the electronic part of the core-level broadening in XPS is indistinguishable from a Gaussian. This Gaussian broadenin

Assessment of Multipath in Aeronautical Environments

In the last years the usage of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) systems for aviation was a quickly growing field. In this context the problem of multipath reception becomes crucial as aviation demands high accuracy navigation based upon GNSS throughout all phases of flight and in particular with strong requirements for the approach and landing phase. To address this issue, simulations ha

The Consequences of a Fragmented Climate Governance Architecture: a Policy Appraisal

This chapter complements the analysis in Chapter 2 by a policy-oriented inquiry of how different degrees of fragmentation of governance architectures are likely to affect the environmental effectiveness of policies. Our study relates here to an area of widespread contestation in academic and policy writing. It is often maintained, as we describe further below, that a more integrated climate govern

The political theology of IKEA: An ethnographical account of subjectification at an IKEA store

Abstract in UndeterminedThis paper is an ethnographical account of a visit to the IKEA store in Älmhult, Sweden. In this paper IKEA is understood as something beyond a retailer offering consumer goods to consumers, and the bond between IKEA and the consumer is understood as something emerging before and extending beyond the contract into which the consumer enters as she or he pays for the goods be

Om etniska enklaver och samhällsförändringar efter ett krig

Syftet med detta utkast är att identifiera och analysera de sociala relationer och motsättningar som uppstår i ett samhälle som förändrats helt under ett krig. Den empiriska delen bygger på observationer i Ljubija, en stad i nordvästra Bosnien, tidningsartiklar från området samt fjorton intervjuer. Utvecklingen under och efter kriget har gjort att folk i Ljubija grupperas i tre skikt. En grupp b

Developments in the theory of the Prigogine-Herman kinetic equation of vehicular traffic

The nonlinear kinetic equation of Prigogine and Herman is examined in regards to existence and uniqueness of solutions. The solution exists and is unique in the Banach space of bounded continuous functions over a particular subspace Ω. The equilibrium solution of the kinetic equation of Prigogine and Herman is used to derive asymptotic type series expansions in the form of Hilbert or Chapman and

Analysis of intonational phrasing in West Greenlandic Eskimo reading text

West Greenlandic Inuit Eskimo intonation has been described previously at word, phrase, and sentence levels (Mase 1973, Rischel 1974, Nagano-Madsen 1992, 1993). The present study attempts to extend the previous descriptions of intonation in this language by analysing text reading material, with focus on the phrasing function of intonation. The phrasing function of intonation has received much atte

Maternal carriership of factor V Leiden associated with pathological uterine artery doppler measurements during pregnancy

Abstract To determine whether increased vascular resistance in the uterine artery is associated with carriership of factor V Leiden, a retrospective study was undertaken of 231 pregnant women who were monitored with Doppler velocimetry of the uterine arteries. These women had been part of a prospective study of 2,480 pregnant women in whom factor V Leiden had been analysed. When compared with non-
