In a joint research project – Human Factors in Air Navigation Services, HUFA – between the Swedish Civil Aviation Administration and Lund University the focus is on human and organizational factors and safety in air traffic control. The Swedish Air Navigation Services (ANS) are undergoing major organizational changes in order to adapt to changing demands on efficiency and technical development in

We present the complete automation of the computation of one-loop QCD corrections, including UV renormalization, to an arbitrary scattering process in the Standard Model. This is achieved by embedding the OPP integrand reduction technique, as implemented in CutTools, into the MadGraph framework. By interfacing the tool so constructed, which we dub MadLoop, with MadFKS, the fully automatic computat

A stirred tank membrane reactor is used to study the kinetics of polygalacturonic acid (PGA) enzymatic hydrolysis. The reactor operates in semicontinuous configuration: the native biopolymer is loaded at the initial time and the system is continuously fed with the buffer. The effect of retention time (from 10 1 to 142 min) and membrane molecular weight cutoff (from I to 30 kDa) on the rate of perm

Empirical evaluations in software engineering are important in order to build a body of knowledge of methods that work in different environments. This thesis presents six empirical investigations of two techniques applied to software inspections, namely reading techniques and fault content estimation techniques. The first part of the thesis presents a series of experiments of a novel reading tech

As a result of the reorganization of Lund Institute of Technology at Lund University, the new Department of Design Sciences was established. In focus of the establishment of this Department was the ambition to facilitate cross-disciplinary research within the design area. The project presented here is one of the first results of this ambition. In this project the overall objective is the increase

Auditory event-related brain potentials evoked in response to tone stimuli and to speech stimuli were recorded in a group of parents of children with specific language-impairment and a group of parents of normally speaking children. The parents of the language-impaired children showed longer P3 latencies than the parental control group in the speech task requiring a phonological discrimination, bu

En central del i de flesta psykoterapeutiska inriktningar utgörs av hur man ser på emotioner samt vilka konsekvenser olika sätt att förhålla sig till eller reglera emotionerna får: Ur ett psykoanalytiskt perspektiv ses primitiva och rigida försvarsmekanismer riktade mot omedvetna affekter, drifter och impulser, som en viktig bidragande faktor till utvecklandet av psykiska besvär (Weiner & BornThe general aim of the present thesis was to further our understanding of cognitive restructuring and acceptance, both as concepts and as psychological processes related to emotion regulation. In doing this, concepts and processes related to cognitive restructuring and acceptance were examined in four different studies using different designs and methodologies. The main purpose of Study I was to

Nutrient sensors that can be located directly in the activated sludge processes are gaining in number at wastewater treatment plants. The in situ location of the sensors means that they can be located close to the processes that they aim to control and hence are perfectly suited for automatic process control. Compared to the location of automatic analysers in the effluent from the sedimentation re

In this article we report on how 64 dentists working in a big city in southern Sweden view their profession. The dentists ranged in age from 30 to 70 years (as it was indicated in intervals of 10 years). Their professional experience ranged from 2 to 44 years (mean, 23 years). We collected their views on the ideal skills of a good dentist by means of a questionnaire. From this material we identifi

This contribution presents a modeling and optimization method for multi-column counter-current purification (MCSGP) processes. The model is based on conventional column models and by using the symmetric and cyclic steady state characteristics of the process a single column analog model was developed. The model have been used for dynamic optimization of the MCSGP process. The optimization was based

We investigate self-heating in vertical, gate-all-around III-V InAs/InGaAs nanowire MOSFETs using pulsed IV measurements at various temperatures. Low temperature measurements reveal a negative output conductance indicating self-heating in the transistor. Under pulsed measurements, an increase in drain current (15%) and transconductance (30%) are observed at room temperature, with values influenced

We present a theoretical study of high-order harmonic generation by a slowly driven ''Duffing'' anharmonic oscillator. The power spectra are shown to display a plateau of high harmonics, which ends up with a sharp cutoff. The classical dynamics is analyzed with the adiabatic invariance theorem, which yields a simple interpretation to this characteristic behavior. We compare with the quantum case b

BACKGROUND: The increasing number of survivors after childhood cancer requires characterization of the late complications of these diseases and their treatment. We examined a large number of possible socio-economic late effects following treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in order to identify factors leading to a poor outcome. PROCEDURE: All individuals who had been diagnosed with AL

Abstract in FrenchSelon l’hypothèse du “Penser-pour-parler” (Thinking-for-speaking ou TFS), les locuteurs delangues différentes n’organiseraient pas leur pensée de la même manière lors de la préparationmentale de leurs productions. L’objectif de cet article est de proposer une discussion critiquedes travaux effectués dans le paradigme du TFS, à partir des principes de base établis par cecadre théoAccording to the thinking-for-speaking (TFS) hypothesis, speakers of different languages think differently while in the process of mentally preparing content for speech. The aim of the present paper is to critically discuss the research carried out within the TFS paradigm, against the background of the basic tenets laid out by the proponents of this framework. We will show that despite substantial

Recent studies have explored the influence of obesity and critical illness on ciprofloxacin pharmacokinetics. However, variation across the subpopulation of individuals with obesity admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with varying renal function remains unexamined. This study aims to characterize ciprofloxacin pharmacokinetics in ICU patients with obesity and provide dose recommendations for
