A Cochrane metaanalysis and a study performed on children have recently confirmed that therapeutic hypothermia does not improve outcome after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). TBI is not comparable to a short episode of global ischemia, where therapeutic hypothermia has been shown to improve outcome. The difference may be explained by the fact that hypothermia-induced stress after a traumatic b
The paper presents the control server, a real-time scheduling mechanism tailored to control and signal processing applications. A control server creates the abstraction of a control task with a specified period and a fixed input-output latency shorter than the period. Individual tasks can be combined into more complex components without loss of their individual guaranteed fixed-latency properties.
When low calorific value gases are fired, the performance and stability of gas turbines may deteriorate due to a large amount of inertballast and changes in working fluid properties. Since it is rather rare to have custom-built gas turbines for low lower heating value (LHV) operation, the engine will be forced to operate outside its design envelope. This, in turn, poses limitations to usable fuel
Popular Abstract in Swedish Sotpartiklar i atmosfären är en del av klimatfrågan som är i särskilt stort behov av utredning. Dessutom har det visat sig, att samma partiklar orsakar mycket stora hälsoproblem; globalt, på Europeisk nivå, och till och med i förhållandevis förskonade länder som Sverige. Vi vet nu nästintill helt säkert att mänsklig påverkan leder oss in i ett varmare klimat. Vi behöveAerosol particles contribute significantly to the global burden of disease, and remain the main source of uncertainty in assessments of human-induced climate change. The microphysical characterization of particles is necessary to understand the roles they play in the detrimental effects of air pollution on human health, and in the energy budget of our planet. Soot particles are especially relevant
Introduction to the cinematic works of Austrian artist Kerstin Cmelka
Sweden has a long tradition of using film material in school education. As a way to heighten the film industry’s status, commercial film companies began to lend out films to schools already in 1921. This practice continued until Swedish television (SVT) started to televise programs directly to schools in 1961. The Last Dog in Rwanda (Den sista hunden i Rwanda, 2006, Jens Assur) is a short film pro
