The workshop Reglermöte 85 was arranged during May 29-30 1985 at the Department of Automatic Control at Lund Institute of Technology. About 100 persons participated evenly divided between industry and universities. 18 papers were presented. Abstracts of the papers are given in the report.

Den praktiska tillämpningen av de utförda beräkningarna kan sammanfattas i följande punkter: - Den gynnsamma effekten på uttorkning av byggfukt, som erhålles av mineralullsisolering och slopande av ångspärr, kan lnte utnyttjas vid golvvärme annat än möjligen i undantagsfall. Fukttillförseln underifrån riskeras bli a1ltför stor om golvvärmen stängs av mer än 3 - 4 månader för ett ordinärt småhus. -

This dissertation contains a variety of contributions to econometric theory. Broadly speaking, econometrics may be categorized depending on what type of data is being analyzed, the two main categories being time series data and cross sectional data. A third category is panel data, combining cross sectional data observed over time. This is the area at which this dissertation is aimed. Panel data mo

In nuclear reactors plutonium and transplutonium isotopes are produced by multiple neutron capture of uranium and plutonium and are important for the energy production and their composition reflects the core burnout. Under normal operation these elements are not released to the environment in significant amounts. There are accordingly very few areas or source terms where exotic transplutonium elem

Background. An abnormally high [above mean + 2 standard deviations (SD)] umbilical artery (UA) pulsatility index (PI) indicates impaired fetal outcome, whereas the impact of an "abnormally" low (below mean -2 SD) PI is unknown. Methods. Perinatal outcome was compared between cases with a UA PI less than mean -2 SD (group A: high-risk cases selected from a database, n = 330; group B: unselected ca

The high-molecular-mass salivary mucin MG1, one of two major mucins produced by human salivary glands, plays an important role in oral health by coating the tooth surface and by acting as a bacterial receptor. Here this mucin was purified from the submandibular/sublingual saliva of a blood group O individual. The presence of MUC5B as the major mucin in this preparation was confirmed by amino acid

Swanströms doktorsavhandling undersöker fyra aspekter på den separatistiska rörelsen i Österbotten utifrån Catharina Asplund, Abraham Achrenius, Johan Bullich och Friedrich Basilier. Avsnitten präglas av personernas anknytning till maktperspektiv, apokalyptik och själavård, uppror och mental ohälsa, resp. ekonomiska svårigheter. Förf. har bearbetat obeaktat material och kombinerat det med välbekan

110 patients with non-operated on fracture of the lateral end of the clavicle were reviewed on an average 15 years after the injury. There were 73 undislocated Neer Type I fractures, 23 dislocated Type II fractures and 14 intraarticular Type III fractures. The patients' age at trauma was 36 (2-71) years. At follow-up 95 shoulders were asymptomatic. 15 shoulders had moderate pain and dysfunction an

Differential gene expression analysis, using high-density microarray chips, demonstrated 300-400 genes to be deregulated in mantle cell lymphomas (MCLs) compared with normal B-cell populations. To investigate the significance of this genetic signature in lymphoma etiology and diagnostics, we selected 90 annotated genes involved in a number of cellular functions for further analysis. Our findings d

Popular Abstract in Swedish Skogen utgör en viktig del av kolbalansen mellan mark och luft och har en potential att reducera koncentrationen av koldioxid i atmosfären. Mängden bladyta i en skog ger en indikation på skogens förmåga att binda koldioxid till marken. Den här avhandlingen utforskar möjligheterna att erhålla information om skogars mängd av bladyta med hjälp av den information som registThis thesis deals with methods of obtaining the leaf area index (LAI) from remotely sensed satellite data. Initially, in situ estimation methods were investigated, since the accuracy of the remotely sensed estimates is dependent on the quality of these estimates. The results of the present studies indicate that some methods commonly used as a reference for more complicated methods could result in

The effect of harvest time and storage on dietary fibre content and composition was investigated in six cultivars of white cabbage (Brassica oleracea var capitata). Three cultivars were of early maturity type (SW Nordpol, Rolly and Balbro) and three of late maturity type (Predikant, Hanna and Lion). The average total dietary fibre (TDF) content was 241 g kg(-1) dry matter (DM) (CV = 13), of which

Lymfödem är ett kroniskt sjukdomstillstånd som påverkar individens livstillfredsställelse och arbetsförmåga. Basen för all lymfödembehandling är ständig kompression, och behandlingen ska vara kontinuerlig. Patienterna bör bedömas och behandlas av ett multiprofessionellt team. Konservativ behandling innebär adekvat information till patienten, förebyggande åtgärder, kompression med strumpa och vid b

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling söker visa att psykoanalysen slagit in en bärande vägg i sin egen teori genom att avfärda det psykiska energibegreppet. Eftersom överbringande av information kräver energi (Brillouin) hamnar vi förutan ett psykiskt energibegrepp i epifenomenalism och cartesiansk dualism. Därmed skulle Darwin s a s ställas utanför psykologin. Psykisk energi kan också visThis thesis purports to prove the logical necessity of the psychic energy concept discarded by modern psychoanalysis by linking the "evolutionistic argument" against epiphenomenalism to Brillouin´s negentropy principle. If our conscious awareness of affects and other psychological events should be attributed a signal value at all, they must necessarily exercise effect on the soma. This presupposes

The importance of patterns of daily occupations to health has been emphasised ever since occupational therapy was founded, but little is known about this relationship. The aim of this study was to describe in detail one woman’s pattern of daily occupations as an initial step in developing strategies for further studies of patterns of daily occupations. Four different methods were used, one on each

The results of three separate studies on ankle fractures are presented. Clinical information is provided concerning the epidemiology and a comparison of closed versus open treatment, and a discussion is presented concerning what results can be expected 30 years after closed treatment for an ankle fracture.

Liquid solubility measurements were performed by immersion of poly(octyl)methylsiloxane (POMS) in dilute aqueous solutions of homologous series of aliphatic esters and alcohols with compound specific concentrations of 20, 40, 80 and 120 ppm. Measurements were performed at 20 °C with both single- and multi-compound mixtures and linear sorption isotherms were obtained. By fitting experimentally dete

We report a theoretical study of the electronic structure and optical properties of free-standing semiconductor nanowires, based on an atomistic tight-binding approach. It is shown that the optical transition between the valence-band maximum and conduction-band minimum of an intrinsic nanowire is fully polarized along the wire axis, and this giant polarization anisotropy can be explained in terms
