The objectives of this paper are to identify in-vehicle systems for speed management that have been or are being developed, and to suggest recommendations for the implementation of systems that will effectively influence driving speeds and thereby significantly increase safety. The best safety effect is expected from an "intelligent" gas pedal, more specifically the automatic speed limiter. Howeve
OBJECTIVE: To determine costs of illness for adult diabetes mellitus (DM), including complications caused by DM. DESIGN: A population-based multicentre cross- sectional study including an interview and a physical examination of patients identified as having DM. The patients' medical records were analysed regarding diagnoses and complications attributable to DM. SETTING: Eight health care centres o
A recently constructed long-path enclosive flow cooling apparatus is employed to obtain the Fourier transform gas-phase infrared absorption spectrum of natural isotopic trans-1,2-dichloroethylene with a resolution of 0.00190 cm(-1) in the 800-1000 cm(-1) spectral region. The rotational structure of the out-of-plane CH flapping fundamental has been analyzed for the isotopic analogues Cl-35(2) and (
Z(SPA-1) is an engineered protein that binds to its parent, the three-helix-bundle Z domain of staphylococcal protein A. Uncomplexed Z(SPA-1) shows a reduced helix content and a melting behavior that is less cooperative, compared with the wild-type Z domain. Here we show that the difference in folding behavior between these two sequences can be partly understood in terms of an off-lattice model wi
An analytical method for the analysis of 3-aminopropionamide (3-APA) based on derivatization with dansyl chloride and liquid chromatography/fluorescence detection was developed. We have analysed 3-APA formation in raw potatoes, grown and stored under different condition, green and roasted coffee beans and in freeze dried mixtures of asparagine with sucrose and glucose in molar ratio of 1:0.5, 1: 1
We have performed a joint theoretical and experimental study to investigate the terahertz radiation from Bloch oscillations in a GaAs/Al0.3Ga0.7As superlattice under the condition that there is no Zener tunneling. The total radiation intensity has been calculated with a semiclassical approach in the low field regime where the Wannier-Stark ladder (WSL) cannot be resolved, and with an exact numeric
The findings from the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial (PCPT) and how they relate to the management of prostate disease were reviewed by leading European urologists during a meeting held in December 2005. The consensus opinions that were reached were endorsed by the European Association of Urology and are documented here. The key points of the consensus are as follows: (1) The overall results from
Adaptive step size control is difficult to combine with geometric numerical integration. As classical step size control is based on "past" information only, time symmetry is destroyed and with it the qualitative properties of the method. In this paper we develop completely explicit, reversible, symmetry-preserving, adaptive step size selection algorithms for geometric numerical integrators such as
The study focused on the performance of a group of Swedish children with language impairment (LI) on a referential communication task as a step in the investigation of their pragmatic skills. The task entailed choosing a single card from a selection of 16 depicting a face and describing it well enough for the opponent in order for him/her to pick the correct one from his/her identical array of car
It is argued that the assumption that the standard model particles live on a finite brane in the ADD model does in itself imply a finite propagator for virtual Kaluza-Klein mode exchange. The part of the propagator relevant for large distance scattering is cut-off-independent for scattering at distances large compared to the brane width. The matrix element corresponding to this part can also, at l
Gasification is an important option for the swift implementation of biomass combined heat and power. processes in the Danish energy supply system. Tar-water produced by the gas-cleaning system of gasifiers may contain substances toxic to nitrifying bacteria. As the gasification plants are small and often located in the catchment area of small wastewater treatment plants, discharge of the tar-water
Objective To describe changes between 1992 and 2003 in age, sex, factors at resuscitation and survival among patients suffering from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Sweden. Methods This was a prospective observational study including various ambulance organizations in Sweden. Patients suffering from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest between 1992 and 2003 included in the Swedish Cardiac Arrest Regis
In a randomized study of 100 patients having displaced femoral neck fractures (Garden types 34), we compared internal fixation using 2 von Bahr screws (n = 53) with a bipolar Variokopf prosthesis (n = 47). The duration of surgery was shorter and the blood loss was less in the group with screws. Dislocation of the prosthesis occurred in 7/47 patients, all within 4 months. After a minimum follow-up
The temperature-driven spin-reorientation transition (SRT) has been investigated in a layer of 2.1 nm Co in Au/Co/Au. We studied the evolution and stability of the in-plane magnetization components in the temperature range from 300 to 90 K by means of polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR) and Co L-edge X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) measurements. The PNR measurement provides evidence for
We present multiple-epoch radial-velocity observations for 104 stars in a field of the intermediate-age open cluster IC 4651 to . Only 13 stars (13%) of the full sample are field stars. From the 44 single member stars we find a mean radial velocity of , and the 12 single red-giant members yield a true radial-velocity dispersion of . Of the 19 giant members, 7 (37%) are spectroscopic binaries with
Like most L2 speakers, speakers of early L1, children with SLI, and Broca’s aphasics lack the or¬dinary speaker’s ability to produce utterances on line with almost no errors. Often they produce well-formed utterances, but quite frequently they produce errors that are almost non-existent in the speech of normal grown-up speakers. In my paper I will suggest, based on empirical material from Swedish,
