Isometric embeddings of snowflakes into finite-dimensional Banach spaces
2016
We consider a general notion of snowflake of a metric space by composing the distance by a nontrivial concave function. We prove that a snowflake of a metric space $X$ isometrically embeds into some finite-dimensional normed space if and only if $X$ is finite. In the case of power functions we give a uniform bound on the cardinality of $X$ depending only on the power exponent and the dimension of the vector space.
Body Composition in Late Midlife as a Predictor of Accelerated Age-associated Deficit-accumulation From Late Midlife into Old Age: A Longitudinal Bir…
2022
Abstract Background Body mass index (BMI) may not be an optimal predictor of frailty as its constituents, lean and fat mass, may have opposite associations with frailty. Methods A linear mixed model analysis was performed in the Helsinki Birth Cohort Study (n = 2 000) spanning from 57 to 84 years. A 39-item frailty index (FI) was calculated on three occasions over 17 years. Body composition in late midlife included BMI, percent body fat (%BF), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), lean mass index (LMI), and fat mass index (FMI). Results Mean FI levels increased by 0.28%/year among men and by 0.34%/year among women. Among women, per each kg/m2 higher BMI and each unit higher %BF the increases in FI leve…

Lämpösähköisen materiaalin lämmönjohtavuuden määrittäminen matalissa lämpötiloissa käyttäen 3ω-menetelmää
2014
Työssä tutkittiin mittausmenetelmää lämmönjohtavuuden määrittämiseen mata- lissa lämpötiloissa. Mittaukset perustuivat 3ω menetelmään, joka on alunperin ohut- kalvoille kehitetty menetelmä lämmönjohtavuuden mittaukseen. Menetelmässä läm- mitinlangan läpi kulkeva vaihtovirta synnyttää kolminkertaisella taajudella olevan jännitteen, jonka avulla saadaan tietoa kappaleen termisistä ominaisuuksista. Mit- tauksissa kultainen lämmitinlanka höyrystettiin Kapton kalvon päälle ja tämän päälle hyvin ohut alumiinioksidikerros. Mittaukset suoritettiin pulssituubijäähdyttimeen ra- kennetussa näytteenpitimessä. Laitteiston toiminta varmistettiin huoneenlämpötilas- sa borosilikaatti- ja Kapton näytteillä.…

On the Almost Everywhere Convergence of Multiple Fourier-Haar Series
2019
The paper deals with the question of convergence of multiple Fourier-Haar series with partial sums taken over homothetic copies of a given convex bounded set $$W\subset\mathbb{R}_+^n$$ containing the intersection of some neighborhood of the origin with $$\mathbb{R}_+^n$$ . It is proved that for this type sets W with symmetric structure it is guaranteed almost everywhere convergence of Fourier-Haar series of any function from the class L(ln+L)n−1.
Enabling Sociability When Using Virtual Reality Applications : A Design Science Research Approach
2019
Immersive virtual reality applications aim at providing an all-encompassing spatial experience where a user can feel like being in another world or dimension. The systems are inherently designed for individual use as the devices disconnect the user from the physical environment. However, the applications are seldom used alone. Specifically, when used for sales and marketing, the user often needs help from other people but also benefits from social interaction as a part of the experience. Design research methodology is applied to three iterative development versions of a virtual-reality application. The focus of the evaluation of the artifacts is in the social use emphasizing three sociabili…
Problem Space Identification for Developing Virtual Reality Learning Environments
2021
Our study argues that the extant literature on virtual reality-based learning environments (VRLEs) currently lacks proper definitions and context descriptions for a problem space, which is fundamental for conducting design science research (DSR). Without properly conducted problem space identification, the most pivotal problems cannot be identified resulting solutions lacking validity and unreliable evaluations. This is a major challenge for the DSR in the educational field, but also for the research on VRLEs. The purpose of this paper is to introduce a novel DSR method to support rigorous problem space identification, which would allow rigorous and profound problem space analysis. The inst…
Soil moisture variations from boreal forests to the tundra
2023
Soil moisture has a profound influence on life on Earth, and this vital water resource varies across space and time. Here, we explored soil moisture variations in boreal forest and tundra environments, where comprehensive soil moisture datasets are scarce. We installed soil moisture sensors up to 14 cm depth at 503 measurement sites within seven study areas across northern Europe. We recorded 6,138,528 measurements to capture soil moisture variations of the snowless season from April to September 2020. We described the spatio-temporal patterns of soil moisture, and test how these patterns are linked to topography and how these links vary in space and time. We found large spatial variation a…
