...most attention from both industry and academia. Femtocells may either be part of a HetNet as standardised within 3GPP, or constitute the secondary system in cognitive networks. Power control is a useful mechanism to allow efficient communications within both femto- and macrocells, but should be designed...
...multiplicities to model the continuity across each line segments individually. We obtain a quadrilateral grid with T-junctions in the parameter domain, and a collection of tensor product B-splines on this mesh here named an LR-mesh. The approach applies equally well in dimensions higher than two. By refining...
...generically and thus be standardized on its own and not as an add-on or profile to other languages. In product line engineering feature modeling has been applied to express variants of product models. This paper shows how the Common Variability Language can be designed to enhance feature modeling and automate...
This book is an introduction to the theory, practice, and implementation of the Lattice Boltzmann (LB) method, a powerful computational fluid dynamics method that is steadily gaining attention due to its simplicity, scalability, extensibility, and simple handling of complex geometries. The book contains...
Leer (HLL) and Harten-Lax-van Leer-Contact (HLLC) schemes. Herein, LTS denotes a class of explicit methods stable for Courant numbers greater than one. The original LTS method (R.J. LeVeque, SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 22 (1985) 1051–1073) was constructed as an extension of the Godunov scheme, and successive...
...purpose of this paper is to show relevant dimensions for presenting railway punctuality data. We discuss alternatives for visualisation and analysis, and show principles and practical examples. The study has benefitted from access to a complete database of Norwegian punctuality data including all data that...
The occurrence of dampness and mold in the indoor environment is associated with respiratory-related disease outcomes. Thus, it is pertinent to know the magnitude of such indoor environment problems to be able to estimate the potential health impact in the population. In the present study, the moisture...
Glass represents an important and widely used building material, and crucial aspects to be addressed include thermal conductivity, visible light transmittance, and weight for windows with improved energy efficiency. In this work, by sintering monolithic silica aerogel precursors at elevated temperatures...
