Summary. Over the last few decades, clinical follow-up of patients with haemophilia has become more complex as a result of the introduction of new treatment strategies, the presence of comorbidities related to haemophilia or ageing, as well as the emergence of new tools to evaluate the medical and social consequences of haemophilia. This publication describes the parameters and information that sh
General expressions for the quality factor (Q) of antennas are minimized to obtain lower-bound formulas for the Q of electrically small, lossy or lossless, combined electric and magnetic dipole antennas confined to an arbitrarily shaped volume. The lower-bound formulas for Q are derived for the dipole antennas excited by both electric and magnetic surface currents as well as by electric surface cu
We have designed a new class of microdevices composed of a supporting plastic (polyvinyl chloride, PVC) plate integrated with a groove for a piece of fused silica capillary (the separation channel), a slit for on-tube detection, an “islet” for the application of sample, electrode vessels and platinum electrodes. The design permits electrophoretic, electrochromatographic and chromatographic separat
Pancreatic cystic neoplasms are detected at an increasing frequency due to an increased use and quality of abdominal imaging. There are well known differential diagnostic difficulties concerning these lesions. The aim is to review current literature on the diagnostic options and the following treatment for cystic lesions in the pancreas focusing on serous cystadenomas, primary mucinous neoplasm of
Today more and more functionality is included in embedded systems, resulting in an increased system complexity. existing design methodologies and design tools are not adequate to deal with this increase in complexity. To overcome these limitations application specific design solutions are more common. In this thesis we presents such solutions for real-time image processing. This work is part of th
This thesis consists of an introductory chapter followed by five papers. In the first paper, expanding maps on the unit interval are considered. The set of points for which the forward orbit is bounded away from a given point is studied. It is shown that this set has full Hausdorff dimension and that it has large intersection properties. In the second paper, expanding maps on the unit interval
Based on energy conservation, an optical theorem is constructed for a slab having an arbitrary periodic microstructure in a plane. A sum rule for low pass structures is derived using analytic properties of Herglotz functions based on causality and passivity. The sum rule relates the extinction cross section to the static polarizability per unit cell, and quantifies the interaction between the slab
