The equation-based Modelica language allows the modeller to specify custom functions. The body of a function is an algorithm that contains procedural code to be executed when the function is called. This language feature is useful for many applications; however, the insertion of a function often prevent model optimizations that require the model to be formulated in purely declarative form by equat

This report describes the work carried out within the research project ``Merging Real-Time and Control Theory for Improving the Performance of Embedded Control Systems''. The overall objective of the work has been to develop integrated control and scheduling methods for improving the performance of real-time control systems with limited resources. The work has fallen into three categories. First,

We report on charged hadron production in deuteron-gold reactions at roots(NN) = 200 GeV. Our measurements in the deuteron direction cover 1.4

Because of the low tensile strength of aerated concrete, the sealing of joints between such elements causes special problems. In this paper some main characteristics of sealants for use in aerated concrete joints are discussed. These properties are elongation resistance, elasticity, and ageing. The elongation resistance was examined at different rates and different temperatures. The elasticity wa

Vid bedömning av universitetslärares meriter betraktas undervisning och forskning ofta som två skilda verksamheter, där olika uppsättningar kriterier definierar en skicklig lärare och en skicklig forskare. Återspeglar detta då verkligheten, eller är det möjligt att formulera gemensamma kriterier? Vi vill här diskutera en preliminär modell för bedömning av såväl forsknings- som undervisningsmeriter

Popular Abstract in Undetermined Vårt immunförsvar består av molekyler, celler, och barriärer som har till uppgift att hålla oss friska genom att avlägsna eller stänga ute virus och skadliga mikroorganismer. På alla kärnförsedda celler i vår kropp sitter en stor mängd MHC klass I-molekyler, strukturer som kan liknas vid korgar. I varje korg ligger en peptid som är ett fragment av något som finns iHuman leukocyte antigen class I (HLA-I) molecules are present on all nucleated cells and present the cell content to cytotoxic T lymphocytes in the form of peptides. Maturation of HLA-I occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum and results in stable peptide-HLA-I complexes, in the presence of proper quality control. For proper peptide binding most HLA-I molecules interact with the peptide-loading comple

The aim of the current project (“Swedish Phonetics ’39-‘69”) is to provide an account of the historical, social, discursive, and rhetoric con-ditions that determined the emergence of pho-netic science in Sweden between 1939 and 1969. The inquiry is based on a investigation in four areas: how empirical phonetic data were analysed in the period, how the discipline gained new knowledge about phonetic

The population growth in China together with the rapid industrialization and urbanization have increased the utilization of natural resources, leading to more waste being released to the environment. Thus, the environmental conditions have degraded in many regions to a point where environmentally related problems have become the main limiting factors for economical development and social progress.

Female religious communities, and later also convents, accompanied the return of the Roman Catholic Church to the Nordic countries in the middle of the nineteenth century. These religious communities were mostly so-called active orders or congregations, who helped in par-ishes or ran private schools, orphanages or nursing homes. In the 1930s there were nearly 1,400 Catholic sisters working in Scan

Popular Abstract in Swedish Mjölk anses som det enda flytande livsmedlet som på naturlig väg innehåller de tre fundamentala byggstenarna, fett, protein och kolhydrater, vilket definierar ett livsmedel näringsmässigt. Majoriteten av världens vuxna befolkning är dock tvungen att ha en begränsad konsumtion av mjölk då toleransen för dess kolhydrat, laktos, minskar med vuxen ålder. Detta beror främst This thesis deals with the fermentation characteristics of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in oat-based suspensions, with formulation work of fermented products based on oat and with nutritional studies of these products. Changes in structure in terms of viscosity and ropiness were studied when exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing LAB strains, namely, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus NCFB 2772,
