Mathematical Fuzzy Logic in the Emerging Fields of Engineering, Finance, and Computer Sciences
2022
With more than 50 years of literature, fuzzy logic has gradually progressed from an emerging field to a developed research domain, incorporating the sub-domain of mathematical fuzzy logic (MFL) [...]
Stubborn sets, frozen actions, and fair testing
2021
Many partial order methods use some special condition for ensuring that the analysis is not terminated prematurely. In the case of stubborn set methods for safety properties, implementation of the condition is usually based on recognizing the terminal strong components of the reduced state space and, if necessary, expanding the stubborn sets used in their roots. In an earlier study it was pointed out that if the system may execute a cycle consisting of only invisible actions and that cycle is concurrent with the rest of the system in a non-obvious way, then the method may be fooled to construct all states of the full parallel composition. This problem is solved in this study by a method tha…
Geometry of Quadrangles in Almqvist’s The Queen’s Tiara
2018
Quadrangles are repeatedly used in construction of scenes in Swedish author C. J. L. Almqvist’s novel The Queen’s Tiara. They limit and frame views. Repeating these structures creates connections between scenes. They form in relations between characters. Several quadrangular structures form around one main character called Tintomara, when she involuntarily attracts characters that fall in love in her. Also, quadrangles inside and beside each other are visible in scenes. Almqvist presented these forms in the elementary geometry textbook he published a year before this novel. peerReviewed
Kuntapäättäjän rooli aluekehitystyössä : foucault'lainen tarkastelu
2014
Tutkimuksen tavoitteena on selvittää kunnan poliittisen johdon eli kunnanvaltuutettujen roolia aluekehitystyössä. Aluekehitysprosessia tarkasteltaessa voidaan todeta, että ohjelmaperusteisen aluepolitiikan kaudella kehittämistyön poliittinen ulottuvuus liittyy aluekehitystä ohjaavien strategioiden laatimisvaiheeseen. Strategiaprosessissa kansantahtoa edustavat kunnanvaltuutetut – näin ollen kuntapäättäjien roolia aluekehitystyössä tarkasteltaessa on mahdollista arvioida demokratian toteutumista siinä. Euroopan unionin jäsenyyden jälkeen suomalaisen aluekehitystyön perusta on ollut Euroopan unionin alue- ja rakennepolitiikka, jonka käytännöt ulottuvat aina kansallisvaltioiden alue- ja paikal…
Plasmonic Nanosensor Array for Multiplexed DNA-based Pathogen Detection
2019
In this research we introduce a plasmonic nanoparticle based optical biosensor for monitoring of molecular binding events. The sensor utilizes spotted gold nanoparticle arrays as sensing platform. The nanoparticle spots are functionalized with capture DNA sequences complementary to the analyte (target) DNA. Upon incubation with the target sequence, it will bind on the respectively complementary functionalized particle spot. This binding changes the local refractive index, which is detected spectroscopically as the resulting changes of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) peak wavelength. In order to increase the signal, a small gold nanoparticle label is introduced. The binding ca…
Changes in sprint performance and sagittal plane kinematics after heavy resisted sprint training in professional soccer players
2019
Background Sprint performance is an essential skill to target within soccer, which can be likely achieved with a variety of methods, including different on-field training options. One such method could be heavy resisted sprint training. However, the effects of such overload on sprint performance and the related kinetic changes are unknown in a professional setting. Another unknown factor is whether violating kinematic specificity via heavy resistance will lead to changes in unloaded sprinting kinematics. We investigated whether heavy resisted sled training (HS) affects sprint performance, kinetics, sagittal plane kinematics, and spatiotemporal parameters in professional male soccer players.…
Moraalisten ja esteettisten arvostelmien suhde taiteessa : katsaus kohtuullisiin teorioihin
2015
Tämä tutkielma käsittelee moraalisten ja esteettisten arvostelmien suhdetta taiteessa keskittyen kolmeen kohtuulliseksi teoriaksi katsottuun näkemykseen: Noël Carrollin kohtuulliseen moralismiin, Berys Gautin etikismiin sekä Andersonin ja Deanin kohtuulliseen autonomismiin. Tarkoitukseni on selvittää, millä tavalla kukin näistä teoreetikoista näkee taiteen moraalin ja estetiikan suhteen. Tutkimuskysymyksessäni haluan ottaa selvää, onko taiteessa sekä moraalisia että esteettisiä arvostelmia ja vaikuttavatko nämä toisiinsa. Ennen siirtymistä varsinaisiin kohtuullisiin teorioihin pohjustan aihetta selvittämällä, kuinka taiteen moraaliin ja estetiikkaan on suhtauduttu historian kuluessa ja mite…
The planar two-body problem for spheroids and disks
2021
We outline a new method suggested by Conway (2016) for solving the two-body problem for solid bodies of spheroidal or ellipsoidal shape. The method is based on integrating the gravitational potential of one body over the surface of the other body. When the gravitational potential can be analytically expressed (as for spheroids or ellipsoids), the gravitational force and mutual gravitational potential can be formulated as a surface integral instead of a volume integral, and solved numerically. If the two bodies are infinitely thin disks, the surface integral has an analytical solution. The method is exact as the force and mutual potential appear in closed-form expressions, and does not invol…
Thouless-Valatin Rotational Moment of Inertia from the Linear Response Theory
2017
Spontaneous breaking of continuous symmetries of a nuclear many-body system results in appearance of zero-energy restoration modes. Such modes introduce a non-physical contributions to the physical excitations called spurious Nambu-Goldstone modes. Since they represent a special case of collective motion, they are sources of important information about the Thouless-Valatin inertia. The main purpose of this work is to study the Thouless-Valatin rotational moment of inertia as extracted from the Nambu-Goldstone restoration mode that results from the zero-frequency response to the total angular momentum operator. We examine the role and effects of the pairing correlations on the rotational cha…
First isomeric yield ratio measurements by direct ion counting and implications for the angular momentum of the primary fission fragments
2018
We report the first experimental determination of independent isomeric yield ratios using direct ion counting with a Penning trap, which offered such a high resolution in mass that isomeric states could be separated. The measurements were performed at the Ion Guide Isotope Separator On-Line (IGISOL) facility at the University of Jyvaskyla. The isomer production ratios of Ge-81, Y-96,Y-97 Sn-128(,1)30, and Sb-129 in the 25-MeV proton-induced fission of U-na(t) and Th-232 were studied. Three isomeric pairs (Ge-81, Y-96, and Sb-129) were measured for the first time for the U-na(t)(p, f) reaction, while all the reported yield ratios for the Th-232(p, f) reaction were determined for the first ti…
