Variable valve train systems have been brought into focus during recent years as a means to decrease fuel consumption in tomorrow’s combustion engines. In this paper an integrated approach, called simulation driven experiments, is utilised in order to aid the development of such highly dynamic systems. Through the use of systematic design methodology, a number of feasible concepts are developed. C

Popular Abstract in Swedish På väg mot en universiell elliptisk lösare i två dimensioner Elliptiska partiella differentialekvationer används för att beskriva och modellera ett stort antal fysikaliska fenomen som ofta förekommer i industriella processer, till exempel värmeledning; elektromagnetisk spridning hos antenner; långsamma flöden exempelvis vid sedimentering av pappersmassa, eller elastiskThis thesis addresses solving elliptic partial differential equation using integral equation methods, with emphasis on accuracy, speed and stability. Of particular interest are such equations on non-smooth domains, and several different elliptic problems such as electrostatic and elastostatic ones are treated and solved in this setting.

Identifying the genetic variants that regulate fasting glucose concentrations may further our understanding of the pathogenesis of diabetes. We therefore investigated the association of fasting glucose levels with SNPs in 2 genome-wide scans including a total of 5,088 nondiabetic individuals from Finland and Sardinia. We found a significant association between the SNP rs563694 and fasting glucose

Under lång tid har såväl studenter som lärare inom humaniora önskat och krävt mer lärarledd undervisningstid. I väntan på det vill jag emellertid diskutera hur man som lärare kan hjälpa studenterna att utnyttja självstudietiden på ett så effektivt sätt som möjligt med ett minimum av lärarresurser, för att på så sätt öka kontakttiden med ämnet. Diskussionen tar sin utgångspunkt i pedagogisk forskni

Pain is common in the elderly population and its prevalence varies according to the studied disease, clinical setting, sex and age. This study examines pain in an aging population from a gender perspective.

The aim of this study was to investigate a relationship between FVL-mutation and levels of haemoglobin (Hb) in patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE). From March 1998 to December 2005, 927 consecutive patients with objectively diagnosed VTE were registered in the Malmö Thrombophilia Study (MATS). Female patients with FVL-mutation below 50 years of age had significantly higher median-Hb (133 vs

Software for recognition of handwriting has been available for several decades now and research on the subject have produced several different strategies for producing competitive recognition accuracies, especially in the case of isolated single characters. The problem of recognizing samples of handwriting with arbitrary connections between constituent characters (emph{unconstrained handwriting})
