This paper discusses the significance of physical models in engineering education. Obvious assets, drawbacks and the educational role of such models are discussed, and the idea of 'open physical models' is introduced. A couple of sophisticated open physical models (an unmanned rotorcraft and an inverted pendulum robot), used in control engineering courses, are presented. Basic ideas and concepts,

Flame stabilisation in (highly) preheated mixture is common in several industrial applications. When the reactants are injected separately in the device (usually at high-speed), the flame is lifted so that the fuel and oxidant first mix to give an ignitable mixture. If the temperature of the mixture is adequate, it auto-ignites stabilizing the flame. Here we focus on an academic lifted jet flame a

This paper presents a method for translation of Java bytecode sequences into synthesizable hardware, using the Bluespec System Verilog (BSV) environment. At the core of our approach lies a BSV description of a subset of Java bytecodes, that can be used to directly translate bytecode sequences into a BSV specification. The result is intended as an accelerator for existing Java processors (JOP, Blue

This research paper examines the European Union's merger control regime and its efficacy in addressing the killer acquisitions by big tech firms in the fast-evolving digital sphere. It investigates the legal framework, competition policy objectives, and more importantly the impact of the digital sector on EU competition policy. Furthermore, it critically analyses the killer acquisitions by

A mathematical model has been developed based on the fundamental properties of the control system formed by the lux genes and their products in Vibrio fischeri. The model Clearly demonstrates how the components of this system work together to create two, stable metabolic states corresponding to the expression of the luminescent and non-luminescent phenotypes. It is demonstrated how the cell can "s

The objective was to study gender differences in cardiovascular risk factors, lipid and blood pressure control in patients on combined lipid-lowering and antihypertensive treatment, in relation to gender of their physician. This was a cross-sectional study of 4319 patients (53% men) on lipid-lowering and antihypertensive treatment from two national surveys. Male physicians included 1643 men and 13

Administration of insulin with premeal boluses of short-acting insulin using a new injection device (Novopen) was compared with a conventional three times daily injection regimen regarding aspects of quality of life and metabolic control in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). Eighteen C-peptide-negative patients with IDDM (16 men, two women, aged 31.0 ± 7.4 years, duration of diabetes 13.

OBJECTIVE: To study the association of physician's sex with blood pressure, lipid control, and cardiovascular risk factors in treated hypertensive men and women, stratified for the sex of their physician. METHODS: In a cross-sectional survey of hypertensive patients, 264 primary care physicians (PCPs), 187 men and 77 women from across Sweden, recruited 6537 treated hypertensive patients (48% men)

Seventy-eight non-randomized patients with IDDM, aged 33.8 +/- 9.6 years (mean +/- S.D.), with a duration of diabetes of 16.6 +/- 9.5 years and a HbA1c level of 8.0% +/- 1.5 at baseline were included in the study. The effects of a change from a 3-dose insulin regimen using conventional syringes to a treatment mode using 4 injections per day with a pen injector on metabolic control, perceived distr

This study investigates the interplay between morality, impoliteness, and moral order in the online harassment of Swedish journalists on Twitter. It reveals how impoliteness serves as a tool to harm the media's epistemic credibility, rooted in anti-press and populist rhetoric, and exert destructive informal social control. The highlighted paradox is that provisions for freedom of speech, designed

Long interspersed nuclear element 1 (L1) retrotransposons represent a vast source of genetic variability. However, mechanistic analysis of whether and how L1s contribute to human developmental programs is lacking, in part due to the challenges associated with specific profiling and manipulation of human L1 expression. Here, we show that thousands of hominoid-specific L1 integrants are expressed in

Darknet constitutes a part of the internet with a reputation for allowing deviance and criminality. In short, it is often understood as a place where anything goes. Current research on Darknet tends to focus on illicit cryptomarkets, however in this ongoing doctoral research project, I explore how user posts and behaviors are informally and formally controlled and shaped on Darknet forums.
