Tillgången på kredit kan öka människors hälsa och välfärd, men mot bakgrund av att skulder så småningom måste betalas tillbaka är det samtidigt tänkbart att överskuldsättning kan ge upphov till försämrad hälsa. I denna rapport använder vi svenska enkät- och registerdata på individnivå för att närmare studera denna fråga. Särskilt undersöker vi sambandet mellan betalningssvårigheter och olika subje

To date, there is no standard Verification and Validation (V&V) protocol for the evaluation of evacuation model predictions. This paper is intended to open a discussion on the main issues associated with the definition of a standard procedure for the V&V of building fire evacuation models. Examples of such issues are discussed, namely 1) the definition of tests able to investigate the capa

Workshop held at the 6th International SI Conference, New Orleans, USA, May 2010, discussing the outcomes of a pilot program in Lund appying SI to the essay level of teaching. Both the benefits and the problems were discussed

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det övergripande målet med forskningsprojektet var att identifiera och karakterisera nya gener som liknar de kända sarkomförändrade generna FUS och EWS. De FUS eller EWS lika kandidatgenernas möjliga samband med tumörutveckling skulle sedan undersökas. Strategin var baserad på homologisökningar i de HUGO genererade EST databaserna för att hitta FUS-or EWS-liknande transUsing computer-assisted sequence homology searches we identified three genes encoding proteins similar to certain fusion partner proteins in cancer. The novel APRIL gene was localized to 15q25 and encodes a protein, containing an acidic amino-acid region similar to that/those of leukemia-associated fusion partner proteins DEK and SET. The N-terminus of APRIL contains leucine-rich repeats. The mous

Human complement component C4 was irreversibly inactivated by low concentrations of methylamine at slightly alkaline pH. The inactivated C4 molecules lost the ability to bind to EAC1 cells but retained th capacity to participate in the formation of classical pathway C3 convertase in the fluid phase. 14C-methylamine was incorporated into the alpha-chain at a ratio of 1 mol methylamine per mol C4.

This paper presents an interactive tool which allows to study the problem of systems with delays. The developed tool provides several examples in order to compare PI control and Smith Predictor approaches for processes with delay. Robustness problems due to presence of model uncertainties can also be studied, as well as other control structures to face the different problems that the original Smit
