The RESET test for functional misspecification is generalised to cover systems of equations, and the properties of 7 versions are studied using Monte Carlo methods. The Rao F -test clearly exhibits the best performance as regards correct size, whilst the commonly used LRT (uncorrected for degrees-of-freedom), and LM and Wald tests (both corrected and uncorrected) behave badly even in single equati
Constitutional aneuploidy is typically caused by a single-event meiotic or early mitotic error. In contrast, somatic aneuploidy, found mainly in neoplastic tissue, is attributed to continuous chromosomal instability. More debated as a cause of aneuploidy is aneuploidy itself; that is, whether aneuploidy per se causes chromosomal instability, for example, in patients with inborn aneuploidy. We have
This is the second part of a study that is following eight Swedish fathers of very preterm children using qualitative interviews. The aim was to illuminate fathers' lived experience of the 3years since the birth of their very preterm child using a hermeneutic phenomenological method. The fathers described their lived experience as a process of reorganizing life, which constituted the overarching t
The equations of motion for a constrained multibody system are derived from a continuum mechanical point of view. This will allow for the presence of rigid, as well as deformable, parts in the multibody system together with kinematical constraints. The approach leads to the classical Lagrange-d'Alembert equations of motion under constraint conditions. The generalized forces appearing in the equati

A soy protein film coating was developed and evaluated to reduce fat transfer in deep-fried foods during frying. Soy protein isolate solutions (10% SPI) with 0.05% gellan gum as plasticizer cooled after being held at 80 degrees C for 20 min provided suitable films. There was a significant fat reduction (55.12(+/-6.03)%db) between fried uncoated and coated discs of doughnut mix. The same films were
More recently researchers have turned to analyze how the tax structure, rather than the overall tax level, affects economic performance. For instance, several papers have investigated how taxation on corporate and individual (labor) income influences growth. Taxation of dividend income may also influence growth via its impact on investments and firm behavior. Within the academic community there is
This short encyclopedia article looks at the nomenclature and organizing logics of the field of mass media research. Four 'schools' of research are highlighted: the mainstream social science legacy, the various critical traditions, the culturalist perspective, and policy horizons.
At a large tunnel project in Southern Sweden a number of geoelectrical and IP imaging were carried out. The tunnel is drilled through a horst with a complex geology which includes fractures, high water content and weathered zones. The measurements where carried out to compile a geologic model to use in the further planning of the project. The resistivity and IP complements each other very well sin
The distribution of exogeneous radiolabelled surfactant was investigated in immature newborn lambs who were either ventilated vigorously at birth, and then given surfactant, or who were given surfactant before the first breath. Surfactant distribution was more uniform, and lung mechanics better among the latter.
A selection of papers devoted to the intricate history of freemasonry and other fraternal organisation in the Middle East.
The purpose of this paper is to examine current practices of load factor utilisation of road transport. An interview study of five shippers and two transport providers were conducted. The research shows that transport providers seem to work efficiently with operational practices to improve the load factor, but the load factor seems not to be highly prioritised when it comes to strategic decisions.
