Multitype branching processes have been employed to determine the stack algorithm computational distribution for one subtree. These results are extended here to the distribution of the number of computations in any finite number of subtrees. Starting from the computational distribution forK-1subsequent subtrees, a recurrent equation for the distribution forKsubsequent subtrees is determined.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling handlar om akustofores, dvs. om hur ultraljud kan användas för separation av celler och mikroskopiska partiklar i en ytterst smal flödeskanal. Separationen kan handla om att man vill separera en typ av celler från en annan, som till exempel när man letar efter s.k. cirkulerande tumörceller i blodprover från cancerpatienter. I ett annat fall så vill man This thesis presents experimental studies of microchannel acoustophoresis, a technique for manipulation of microscopic objects in suspension by means of acoustic radiation forces induced by ultrasonic standing wave fields. By arranging an acoustic resonance across the width of a microchannel, the path of individual cells or microparticles can be deflected orthogonally to the fluid flow. The prop

We previously described and showed that the method for cardiac de-airing involving: (1) bilateral, induced pulmonary collapse by opening both pleurae and disconnecting the ventilator before cardioplegic arrest and (2) gradual pulmonary perfusion and ventilation after cardioplegic arrest is superior to conventional de-airing methods, including carbon dioxide insufflation of the open mediastinum. Th

Shallow lakes have great ecological and recreational values. They are also largely affected by humans, mainly through eutrophication, and great efforts are therefore being put into the understanding of these ecosystems. The knowledge is however not complete, and more research is needed to manage these lakes in a sustainable way. The physical characteristics that are special for shallow lakes compa

Endovascular abdominal aortic repair requires an adequate sealing zone. The chimney graft (CG) technique may be the only option for urgent high-risk patients who are unfit for open repair and have no adequate sealing zone. This single-center experience provides long-term results of CGs with endovascular repair for urgent and complex aortic lesions.

A new study has identified a large number of open chromatin regions harboring active regulatory elements in human pancreatic islets. A type 2 diabetes-associated SNP in TCF7L2 was found to be located in a region of allele-specific open chromatin and shows allele-specific enhancer activity, suggesting a potential mechanism for this disease association.

A new method is presented for the purpose of improving pass/fail separation during transient evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) hearing screening. The method combines signal decomposition in scales using the discrete wavelet transform, non-linear denoising and scale-dependent time windowing. The cross-correlation coefficient between two subaveraged, processed TEOAE signals is used as a pass/fail

The role of biomarkers in neurodegenerative diseases has been emphasized by recent research. Future clinical demands for identifying diseases at an early stage may render them essential. The aim of this pilot study was to test the analytical performance of two multiplex assays of cerebral markers on a well-defined clinical material consisting of patients with various neurodegenerative diseases. We

Nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) is a spectroscopic technique that can be used to detect many high explosives and narcotics. Unfortunately, the measured signals are weak, thereby inhibiting the widespread use of the technique. Current state-of-the-art detectors, which exploit realistic NQR data models, assume that the complex amplitudes of the NQR signal components are known, to within a multipl
