Molecular simulations of bio-MOF membranes for uremic toxin separation
(2021-08-27)Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have recently gained importance for gas and liquid separations due to their large surface areas and tuneable pore sizes. The accumulation of urea and creatinine which are small and ... -
Multi-compartment inventory routing problem with adjustable compartment sizes
(2021-06-10)In this study, we focus on a problem where the supplier manages the customers’ in ventories and coordinates the distribution of multiple products to customers. Hereby the supplier can minimize the transportation costs by ... -
Multi-criteria decision-making approach for risk management in modular construction projects
While there exists an ever-rising interest in modular construction projects, the current performance does not depict its full capabilities. This is mainly due to practicing 'stick-built' methods under a roof, implying ... -
Multi-hop hybrid FSO/RF communication systems
(2014-08)The reliability of free-space optical (FSO) links is severely restricted by weather-dependent atmospheric phenomena including absorption, scattering and turbulence. An efficient solution is to build hybrid links where a ... -
Multi-lingual depression-level assessment from conversational speech using acoustic and text features
(2018-12-19)Depression is a common mental health problem around the world with a large burden on economies, well-being, hence productivity, of individuals. Early diagnosis and detection of depression can aid treatment, but diagnosis ... -
Multi-pick round robin arbiter
(2012-08)In this thesis, we propose two multi(m)-pick Round Robin Arbiter (RRA) architectures. An m-pick RRA selects the m topmost requests out of n inputs with priority order indicated by an internally kept pointer (with an update ... -
