Fuel economy and emissions are the two central parameters in heavy duty engines. High EGR rates combined with turbocharging has been identified as a promising way to increase the maximum load and efficiency of heavy duty spark ignition engines. With stoichiometric conditions a three way catalyst can be used which keeps the regulated emissions at very low levels. The Lambda window which results in
It is a well known fact that since the 1960s, Sweden and Holland have developed completely different types of drug policy. But there are a number of misconceptions as to what the differences consist in and how they have arisen. My contribution to this anthology involves elucidating these differences. In the context of international discussions of drug policy, the policies followed by Sweden and Ho
This paper describes a system to create animated 3D scenes of car accidents from reports written in Swedish. The system has been developed using news reports of varying size and complexity. The text-to-scene conversion process consists of two stages. An information extraction module creates a tabular description of the accident and a visual simulator generates and animates the scene.
Thirty images with added simulated pathological lesions at two different dose levels (100% and 10% dose) were evaluated with the free-response forced error experiment by nine experienced radiologists. The simulated pathological lesions present in the images were classified according to four different parameters: the position within the lumbar spine, possibility to perform a symmetrical (left-right
Abstract in French L’article pose la question de savoir s’il existe une corrélation entre le niveau grammatical et le niveau lexical dans la production écrite des apprenants du français. L’hypothèse nulle est que la langue étrangère se développe à tous les niveaux linguistiques à peu près simultanément. Ainsi, un apprenant qui se trouve à un stade grammatical avancé aurait aussi un vocabulaire (un
In this report we have analysed the Scandinavian film and television culture focusing on films released between 2002-2006, using data drawn from both cinemas in Scandinavia and in the rest of Europe, as well as films shown on television in Denmark, Norway and Sweden. The study involves a comparative look at the support mechanisms and the production sector as well as the distribution sector, especi

This chapter investigates the cultural and linguistic characteristics of the ethno-linguistic groups of the Arawakan language family, particularly relating to situations of contact and exchange. At 1492, Arawakan languages were distributed from the Greater Antilles in the north to the Gran Chaco area in the south, and from the Amazon River mouth in the east, to the eastern Andean slopes in the wes
Fourteen patients with superficial basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) and fifteen patients with nodular BCCs were investigated by means of laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) in connection with photodynamic therapy (PDT). Topical application of delta-amino levulinic acid (ALA) was performed six hours prior to the treatment session. Fluorescence spectra were recorded, using a point-monitoring system with an
The book is the sixth collection of reports from The Holocaust and European Historical Culture, a research project based at Lund University. The aim of the project and the book is to study the interpretations and representations of the Holocaust in various post-war European societies and states.
