Purpose: The pin fin is applied into a Lamilloy cooling structure which is broadly used in the leading edge region of the modern gas turbine vane. The purpose of this paper is to investigate effects of the layout, diameter and shape of pin fins on the flow structure and heat transfer characteristics in a newly improved Lamilloy structure at the leading edge region of a turbine vane. Design/methodo
We demonstrate that the detected emission intensity from YOYO-labeled DNA molecules confined in 180 nm deep Si/SiO2 nanofunnels changes significantly and not monotonically with the width of the funnel, an emission enhancement that is only detected for emitted light polarized parallel to the channel. We explain the enhancement effect as being due to optical phenomena in the channels. The enhancemen
Agriculture is vulnerable to the interannual climate variability and to its unpredictability, in such a way that most agricultural decisions taken within the time horizon of several months are made in a conservative manner, supposing a near-pessimist scenario. The improvement of climate prediction may help the strategic view, mitigating unwanted impacts and taking advantage of favorable conditions
The EU’s practice of exporting its acquis to third countries is increasingly coupled with the integration of third countries in the work of the Union’s agencies. The reasons for including third countries vary, as do the forms and intensity of the cooperation. The aim of this study is to assess the possibilities for non-EU member states, in particular those that adopt and implement EU acquis in the
Electrical brain activity and eye movements were recorded in 10 intact and 6 unilaterally labyrinthectomized rabbits, each with implanted electrodes. The frequency of optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) and a 10-second aggregate of theta waves in the dorsal hippocampus were determined after exposure of the animals to sound, vibration and optokinetic stimulation. Each stimulus used caused significant incre
The study of a time-frequency image is often the method of choice to address key issues in cognitive electrophysiology. The quality of the time-frequency representation is crucial for the extraction of robust and relevant features, thus leading to the demand for highly performing spectral estimators. We consider a stochastic model, known as Locally Stationary Processes, based on the modulation in
Psykossjukdomar, framför allt schizofreni, anses vara en av de mest krävande sjukdomar för anhö-riga, dels i termer av daglig assistans, dels dess negativa påverkan på hälsa och livskvalitet. Det är idag ovanligt att informell vård inkluderas i hälsoekonomiska analyser. I detta kapitel granskar vi litteraturen på detta område och har funnit sex kostnadsstudier i en europeisk kontext men inte någon

Med hjälp av ett automatiserat mätsystem för partikelhalter i vatten har vattenkvaliteten vid Borensbergs vattenverk i Motala kommun undersökts under ett års tid med avseende på mikroskopiska partiklar i dricksvatten och råvatten. Antalet mikroskopiska partiklar registrerades som absoluta värden i realtid. I denna artikel diskuteras hur larmgränser skall definieras i praktiken för partikelhalter oDuring a one year long research project at Borensberg Waterworks, Motala, Sweden, water quality with respect to microscopic particle counts both in raw water and drinking water have been monitored by an online water quality monitoring system. Microscopic particle counts were documented with absolute values in real-time. In this paper, a discussion is introduced on how to analyze large data sets fr
In this paper we describe present work on multimodal prosody bymeans of simultaneous recordings of articulation and head movements. Earlierwork has explored patterning, usage and machine-learning based detection offocal pitch accents, head beats and eyebrow beats through audiovisual recordings.Kinematic data obtained through articulography allows for more comparableand accurate measurements, as we
We identify the socioeconomic determinants of three levels of antenatal care (ANC) visits (no, intermediate [1–3], and recommended [≥4]) in Bangladesh using a behavior model framework for health care utilization. Using multinomial logistic regression, we found that different levels of visits had different determinants; for example, media exposure increased the likelihood of intermediate compared w
Summary Systematic process triage quickens the treatment of the most sick patients Ugeskr Læger 2011;173(40):2490-2493 Systematic process triage is a relatively unknown concept in Denmark. Currently there are no national recommendations regarding triage models for use in the emergency department (ED). Four medium-sized EDs from different regions across the country cooperated in a joint venture to
