In this paper, we present a comparison between the reduced mechanisms obtained through a computational singular perturbation method (CSP) and the reduced mechanisms obtained through a lifetime analysis based only on the diagonal elements of the Jacobian matrix and a species sensitivity The two methods are used for the analysis of autoignition, which is an interesting test situation because of the
Popular Abstract in Swedish En omorganisation av det svenska Vägverket har medfört ett behov för dem att fungera som en professionell beställare enbart, utan utförande i egen regi. Det har naturligtvis också medfört en förändring i hur man hanterar upphandlingen av vägunderhåll. En väghållares främsta uppgift är att underhålla befintliga anläggningar och se till at de fungerar som avsett. Den näsA reorganization of the Swedish National Road Administration (SNRA) has urged a demand to work as a professional agency only, without any work by direct labor. This structure has enforced a change in how to handle the pavement maintenance and performance contracts are being promoted since they encourage product development and sustainability. Furthermore, SNRA desires to use the road network as a

This study aims to: (1) identify some of the active and latent conditions that allow maritime security incidents to occur, and (2) explore the feasibility of adapting the Rasmussen-Svedung AcciMap as a tool for maritime security management. These twin objectives are pursued by applying concepts and principles, propounded by Rasmussen and Svedung, to a case study of the 1999 hijacking of the Alondr
We describe the implementation of a FrameNet-based semantic role labeling system for Swedish text. To train the system, we used a semantically annotated corpus that was produced by projection across parallel corpora. As part of the system, we developed two frame element bracketing algorithms that are suitable when no robust constituent parsers are available. Apart from being the first such system
In this paper we present a novel concept and methodology for generating tailored communication protocols specific to an application¿s requirements and the operating environment for a mobile node roaming among different access networks within the global Internet. Since the scheme that we present employs a universal technique, it can be also deployed in smallscale independent networks such as sensor
The interaction of light with multiple red blood cells was systematically investigated by the finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD). The simulations showed that the lateral multiple scattering between red blood cells is very weak and that the polarization has an almost insignificant influence on the distribution of the scattered light. The numerical results of the FDTD method were compared w
Previously we reported the presence of anti-idiotypic antibodies (anti-Id) specific to autoantibodies against GAD65 (GAD65Ab) in healthy individuals while the activity of anti-Id directed to GAD65Ab in T1D patients was significantly lower. These anti-Id recognize the antigen binding site of GAD65Ab, thus preventing their binding to GAD65. Here we characterized the IgG subclass profile of these ant
The Swedish Mongol Mission (SMM) was an ecumenical union active mostly among Mongols in Outer and Inner Mongolia between 1897 and 1945. SMM were to establish five stations at the borders of the Gobi Desert from 1908 to 1944. The stations were Hallong Osso, Goltjaggan, Dojen, Hatt in Sum, situated in Inner Mongolia and Urga (in present Ulan Bator) situated in Outer Mongolia. In 1950 the activities
Basiliximab and anti-thymocyte globulin are widely used drugs for induction therapy after pediatric heart transplantation. The aim of this study was to determine whether any differences could be observed between basiliximab and anti-thymocyte globulin, with respect to long-term mortality, in a population of pediatric cardiac transplant recipients.
Microstructure evolution in thin Cu films during room temperature self-annealing is investigated by means of a mesoscale level set model. The model is formulated such that the relative, or collective, influence of anisotropic grain boundary energy, mobility and heterogeneously distributed stored energy can be investigated. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are performed in the present w
Helicobacter pylori is a cause of chronic gastritis and leads to development of atrophy in some cases. There is evidence that the heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) of H. pylori is involved in induction of chronic inflammation. Seroprevalence of IgG antibodies to H. pylori HSP60 in an adult cohort from Saaremaa, Estonia (68 persons, median age 57 years), with a high prevalence of antibodies to cell sur
In this article, we explore energy transfer processes within a series of Zn-porphyrin-appended dendrimers by means of excitation intensity dependent transient absorption measurements. We report singlet-singlet annihilation on two distinct time scales of 18 +/- 5 ps and 130 +/- 10 ps in the dimer and the dendrimers. The two distinct processes reflect the presence of two structural conformer distrib
In this work we report the impact of using mid-infrared laser-induced thermal grating spectroscopy (IRLITGS) for temperature measurements in flames by probing hot water lines. The measurements have been performed in the product zone of laminar atmospheric CH 4 /H 2 /air flat flames with equivalence ratio ranging between 0.6 and 1.05. LITGS is a technique based on thermalization through collisions
