Panel 7 – Pathogenesis of otitis media – A review of the literature between 2015 and 2019

Objective: To perform a comprehensive review of the literature from July 2015 to June 2019 on the pathogenesis of otitis media. Bacteria, viruses and the role of the microbiome as well as the host response are discussed. Directions for future research are also suggested. Data sources: PubMed database of the National Library of Medicine. Review methods: PubMed was searched for any papers pertaining

Experimental and numerical study of natural convection in bottom-heated cylindrical cavity filled with molten salt nanofluids

This paper combines numerical and experimental to study the heat transfer by free convection for nanofluids of molten salt within a cavity with cylindrical shape which is heated at the bottom and releases heat at the top. The aim is to acquire the free convection laws for nanofluids of molten salt in a cylindrical cavity. It is found that after adding nanoparticles, the molten salts have lower vis

Signals and Systems

Signals are physical variables or quantities measured at various parts of a system, which when processed yield the desired information. A wide variety of signals are often encountered in describing many practical systems. Electrical signal, in form of current and voltage, is the most easily measured quantity, hence the need to use sensors and transducers to transform other non-electrical quantity

Analysis of laminar flow and heat transfer in an interrupted microchannel heat sink with different shaped ribs

A numerical study was conducted to investigate the mechanism of laminar flow and heat transfer enhancement in an interrupted microchannel heat sink (IMCHS) with different shaped ribs at Reynolds number ranging from 100 to 900. The global flow features, heat transfer and friction for IMCHS with no ribs, rectangle ribs, triangle ribs and trapezoid ribs are detailed compared. The results show that th

Refining the history of Younger Dryas and Early Holocene glacier oscillations in the Borgarfjörður region, western Iceland

The lower Borgarfjörður region, western Iceland, has been central to the reconstructions of the dynamics and collapse of the Icelandic Ice Sheet during the deglaciation. Here, extensive stratigraphical sections and landforms provide a rare opportunity to study past glacier dynamics in this part of Iceland. Previous studies reveal that a large outlet glacier in Borgarfjörður advanced during the Lat

Predicted and measured user-related energy usage in newly built low-energy schools in Sweden

Literature and experience show that the differences between calculated and measured building energy performance still exist. The literature shows that user-related parameters are significant with regard to energy performance in low-energy buildings and this means that the choice of parameters is one of the main factors leading to this difference. However, the parameters themselves are associated w

Study of effects of axisymmetric endwall contouring on film cooling/heat transfer and secondary losses in a cascade of first stage nozzle guide vane

The film cooling and heat transfer on the endwall especially in the junction region of a vane/blade which encounters strong vortical flow is of great significance in turbomachinery. Achievement of excellent film cooling and aerodynamic performance by controlling the secondary flow in that region can lead to increased gas turbine efficiency. This study investigates axisymmetric endwall contouring p

Tritium in urine from members of the general public and occupationally exposed workers in Lund, Sweden, prior to operation of the European Spallation Source

A powerful neutron source, the European Spallation Source (ESS), is currently under construction in Lund, Sweden (~90 000 inhabitants). Levels of tritium (3H) in urine were estimated in members of the public in Lund and employees at the ESS using liquid scintillation counting, to obtain baseline levels before the start of operation of the ESS. These were compared with levels in other occupationall
