The authors of the best-selling book PID Controllers: Theory, Design, and Tuning once again combine their extensive knowledge in the PID arena to bring you an in-depth look at the world of PID control. A new book, Advanced PID Control builds on the basics learned in PID Controllers but augments it through use of advanced control techniques. Design of PID controllers are brought into the mainstream
The European shore crab Carcinus maenas is considered to rely on a female pheromone when mating. Evidence, however, is scarce on how the urine pheromone in itself affects males. We investigated male primer and releaser responses to female pheromones with methods that minimized effects from females, delivering female urine either as a pump-generated plume or deposited on a polyurethane sponge. We d
The Boston Psychiatric Rehabilitation Approach (BPR) is person-centered and characterized by being based entirely on the individual's unique needs and preferences in the areas of working, learning, social contacts, and living environment. Nevertheless, the person-centered approach is lacking firm evidence regarding outcomes, and empirical studies regarding clients' experiences of this particular m
This essay examines the contemporary concept of mission in the Church of Sweden, by analyzing material from the years 2012 and 2013 published in the magazine Kyrkans Tidning. The concept of mission differs, both among the world’s Christian population and among members of the academic world. For such a diversity to be fruitful and for the communication among those who use the mission concept to be
Inhalation of engineered nanoparticles that are handled as powders or sprays in consumer products poses a potential health risk. To investigate the effects of nanoparticles on human health, the Nano Aerosol Chamber for In-Vitro Toxicity (NACIVT) system has been designed for controlled deposition of aerosol particles onto cell cultures. The objective of this study was to estimate the deposited dose
The aim of our essay was to examine what a few young former drug addicts, who have gone through treatment, consider to be significant factors in giving up their addiction. Has any event taken place, which has been important for their giving up the addiction? Has it been a long process or a definite break? What influence has the treatment, or specific persons, had? How is the breaking up from life
A method for preparation of thylakoids from plant leaves on a large scale is described. The method involves: 1) disruption of the cells with a blender followed by filtration to remove large cell debris and non disrupted cells. 2) precipitation of the thylakoids by adjusting the pH to the isoelectric point, pH 4.7. 3) a washing step by dilution of the precipitate in water followed by precipitation
The book "Aqua-ecologic Functional Zoning of Songhua River Basin: Application Manual" introduces the technical methodology and detailed application instructions for aqua-ecologic functional zoning in Songhua River Basin in a systematic way in nine Chapters. Based on a general introduction of concept and in-depth contents of aqua-ecologic zoning and its methodology, this application manual addresse
Modern power system is a complex dynamical system and one of the largest man-made systems. With recent driving forces like environmental concerns over air emissions, the modern power system is evolving towards an even more complex system. So it is necessary to handle the current challenges in power systems with simple approaches and avoid adding further complexity as much as possible. Also the imp
When the story of Scandinavian literature is being told in an international context, the Swedish proletarian novels of the 1930s are frequently held up as the more important of the regional canon. 1 In these celebrated novels, childhood and children are at the center-so much so, that I would suggest that the child is one of the more prominent motifs of Swedish literature between the two World Wars
Formate dehydrogenases (FDHs) are metalloenzymes that catalyse the reversible conversion of formate to carbon dioxide. Since such a process may be used to combat the greenhouse effect, FDHs have been extensively studied by experimental and theoretical methods. However, the reaction mechanism is still not clear; instead five putative mechanisms have been suggested. In this work, the reaction mechan
Sweden is widely considered to have one of the most equal and gender-equal societies in the world. But the Swedish society is also one in which the Labour Court can find discrimination when a 60-year-old ‘Swedish’ ‘white’ woman fails to get a job interview – yet not when workers call a colleague of Gambian background ‘blackie’, ‘big black bastard’, ‘the African’, and ‘svartskalle’, or a man of Nig
This study assessed mothers' and fathers' perception of their child's risk of getting type I diabetes (TID) during the first 2 years of their participation in The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study. TEDDY parents were informed of their child's increased genetic risk for Tl D at study inception. Parent perception of the child's risk was assessed at 3, 6, 15, and 27 mo
We propose a novel multi-pose loss function to train a neural network for 6D pose estimation, using synthetic data and evaluating it on real images. Our loss is inspired by the VSD (Visible Surface Discrepancy) metric and relies on a differentiable renderer and CAD models. This novel multi-pose approach produces multiple weighted pose estimates to avoid getting stuck in local minima. Our method re
Background Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is a carcinogen. Exposure to Cr(VI) may occur in different industrial processes such as chrome plating and stainless steel welding. The aim of this study was to assess occupational exposure to Cr(VI) in Denmark. Methods This cross-sectional study included 28 workers and 8 apprentices with potential Cr(VI) exposure and 24 within company controls, all recruite
The tunneling dynamics of a magnetic Dy164 quantum gas in an elongated or pancake skewed double-well trap is investigated with a time-dependent extended Gross-Pitaevskii approach. Upon lifting the energy offset, different tunneling regimes can be identified. In the elongated trap and for sufficiently large offset, the different configurations exhibit collective macroscopic tunneling. For smaller o
