The manual describes MPCtools, a set a Matlab functions for simulation of MPC controllers. MPCtools supports linear state space models for prediction, linear inequality constraints on controls and states and quadratic cost functions. MPCtools also supports Simulink, enabling evaluation of MPC controllers applied to non-linear plants.
The electronic spectrum of VCr has been studied using the complete-active-space self-consistent field complete-active-space second-order perturbation theory approach. Potential-energy curves for 12 electronic states have been computed. Transition energies, with respect to the X(2)Delta ground state, for some of the calculated electronic states are (with possible experimental values within parenthe
Background: An allogeneic antitumour effect has been reported for various cancers. We evaluated the experience of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in 124 patients from 21 European centres. Patients and methods: Reduced intensity conditioning and peripheral blood stem cells from an HLA-identical sibling (n = 106), a mismatched related (n = 5)
We studied the effect of postoperative radiotherapy (RT) after breast sector resection for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). The study protocol stipulated radical surgery but microscopically clear margins were not mandatory. We randomised 1046 operated women to postoperative RT or control between 1987 and 1999. The primary endpoint was ipsilateral local recurrence. Secondary endpoints were contrala
Atypical lipomatous tumors (ALTs) are characterized by supernumerary ring chromosomes and/or giant marker chromosomes, which typically are composed of interspersed, amplified 12q-sequences, are C-band negative, lack a-satellite sequences, and display high copy numbers of several oncogenes, including HMGA2 (a.k.a. HMGIC) and MDM2, from the 12q13-15 region. In the present study, we report the cytoge
Background: Existing studies of solid cancers in rheumatoid arthritis ( RA) reflect cancer morbidity up until the early 1990s in prevalent cohorts admitted to hospital during the 1980s. Objective: To depict the cancer pattern of contemporary patients with RA, from updated risk data from prevalent and incident RA populations. To understand the risk of solid cancer after tumour necrosis factor (TNF)
16 patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection were treated with a combination of interferon-alpha and ribavirin for 24 weeks in an open study. One patient declined further treatment due to depression after week 16 and did not complete further follow-up. A moderate decline was observed in hemoglobin and an increase in bilirubin level both reversible after discontinuing the treatment. 2

Abstract in French L'objectif de cette étude exploratoire est de voir si l'utilisation des formes interlangagières du type "je parlE" ou "je veux habite" par des apprenants suédophones adultes du français langue étrangère seraient influencées par la fréquence des formes dans l'input. L'étude est faite à partir de données de production orale (apprenants) et de données du français parlé (input).
Background: Achalasia is considered to be a primary motor disorder of the oesophagus. However, there is increasing evidence to suggest extra- oesophageal involvement in this disease. Vagal disturbances at different levels and extra- oesophageal dysmotility have been reported in several studies. The aim of this study was to examine cardiovascular reflexes in patients with achalasia further to evalu
Analys av incest- och rasblandningsmotiven i Förföljaren (The Searchers, 1956) och De oförsonliga (The Unforgiven, 1960).
Data of 1,337 consecutive hip fracture patients were registered during I year within a prospective comparative multicenter study comparing osteosynthesis techniques and rehabilitation results in Budapest, Hungary, in Sundsvall, northern Sweden, and in Lund, southern Sweden. In Budapest the mean age was 4-5 years lower than in Sweden, and more patients lived in their own home (91% versus 70% and 62
Problems in classification of main systematic groups are discussed for lichenized ascomycetes exemplified mainly with the Teloschistaceae and Parmeliaceae. Different criteria for delimiting genera and species in these two families are discussed. The lack of separating infraspecific taxa for assigning evolutionary divergence is obvious in both families. The subspecific category is rarely used in li
Falling birth rates within the European Union have given rise to a number of studies, trying to analyse and interpret why women (and men) choose not to have (many) children. One attempt in this direction is made by an ongoing EU-project, involving eight countries, including Sweden. Qualitative interviews focusing on couples' decisions to have- or not have - children have been carried out in each c
Long-term eddy covariance measurements of energy and water fluxes and associated climatic parameters were carried out above a Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) forest in the middle taiga zone of Central Siberia. Data from June 1998 through October 2000 are presented. With the exception of winter 1998/1999, data collection over this period were more or less continuous. A distinct seasonality in surface
