This study surveys the different radical Islamic groups operating in the Pakistani/Kashmiri geographical context. It aims at providing an overview of the groups themselves and the historical and political context in which ...

Synchronization, i.e., convergence towards a dynamical state where the whole population is in one age class, is a characteristic feature of some population models with semelparity. We prove some rigorous results on this, ...

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to use an established porcine model to investigate the effects on immune function of severe gunshot injury. Methods: Twelve pigs sustained two standardised rounds, one through ...

This report is written in the context of a PhD-study. The research is aiming at exploiting the potential of automatic detection of oil spills using new, advanced algorithms to demonstrate how well such a system will perform ...

Numerical simulations using the hydrocode Autodyn of two different armour piercing projectiles are performed against steel and ceramic targets. The results are compared with some experimental data available. A major problem ...

The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) was carried out in February 2000. The goal was to produce a global and consistent digital elevation model with a grid posting of 30 m or 90 m, and with an absolute vertical ...
