Introduction Evacuation from tunnel fire emergencies requires quick decision-making and swift action from the tunnel occupants. Social influence (SI) has been identified as an important factor in evacuation. Methods Two experimental groups were immersed into a virtual road tunnel fire. In the SI group participants saw a virtual agent moving on the shortest route to the nearest emergency exit. In
The climatic conditions inside nuclear reactor containments are continuously monitored by the plant owners in order to e.g. maintain a suitable climate for the mechanical and electrical equipment. Due to the high temperatures, during operation, the concrete within the containment may act as a moisture source contributing to the humidity. To evaluate if, and to what extent, the concrete inside the
This doctoral thesis is comprised of five parts which deal with different signal processing problems in ECG-based characterization of atrial arrhythmias. Such characterization requires that the ventricular activity has first been cancelled in the ECG. In Part I, a new method for cancellation of the QRST complexes in recordings with atrial fibrillation is presented. The method is based on a spatiot
The occurrence of wintering and spring-staging sea ducksin the southern part of Swedish Öresund was surveyedfrom air and ship during the period 2001–2011. Altogether22 air and 20 boat surveys were made during themonths November–May and here we present the resultsregarding five commonly recorded sea ducks. We presentthe numbers recorded and the general time pattern of occurrenceduring winter and sp
The European Association of Urology Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) guidelines panel updated their recommendation on adjuvant therapy in unfavourable, clinically nonmetastatic RCC following the recently reported results of a second randomised controlled phase 3 trial comparing 1-yr sunitinib to placebo for high-risk RCC after nephrectomy (S-TRAC). On the basis of conflicting results from the two availa
The relationship between energy and capital is one of the most important relationships of modern economic growth. Machines need energy to produce all the goods we enjoy; energy without machinery is useless. However, the great majority of the economic models do not take into account the elasticities of substitution (or complementaries) between these two main variables. Actually, energy is absent in
In their efforts to prevent democratic backsliding, militant democrats have traditionally been sympathetic to technocratic arrangements. Does this sympathy imply a logical congruence? Comparing theories of militant democracy and epistemic technocracy (aka epistocracy), I discover a common approach to basic aspects of representative democracy. Both theories see voters as fallible or ignorant instea
The low throughput at IC (Integrated Circuit) testing is mainly due to the increasing test data volume, which leads to high ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) memory requirements and long test application times. In contrast to previous approaches that address either test data compression or abort-on-fail testing, we propose an architecture for combined test data compression and abort-on-fail testing.
STUDY DESIGN: Observational cohort study. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate by MRI whether a vertebral fracture during childhood is a risk factor for degeneration of adjacent discs. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Several studies infer that trauma is a major cause of disc degeneration. Only 1 study has by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluated disc degeneration in children with a former thoracic or lumbar ve

It has often been argued that the Earth is like an island in space and that its brittleness is most clearly reflected on small islands in the oceans. Easter Island, in particular, with its largely depleted resources, has been seen as a microcosmic warning about what could happen to our entire planet. However, the analogy of the Earth and islands with finite natural resources is not self-evident fr

Fastighetsägare står inför ökande press från nya EU-regler kring energi och hållbarhet, samtidigt som driftkostnaderna stiger. Denna studie undersöker lönsamheten för energieffektiviserande åtgärder för fastighetsägare som vill navigera dessa nya krav samtidigt som de uppnår ekonomisk hållbarhet. EU:s övergripande klimatstrategi, inklusive Green Deal och direktiv som CSRD, EPBD och EU-taxonomin, sProperty owners face increasing pressure from new EU regulations on energy and sustainability, coupled with rising utility costs. This study investigates the profitability of energy efficiency measures for property owners aiming to navigate these new demands while achieving economic sustainability. The EU's climate strategy, including the Green Deal and directives like CSRD, EPBD, and the EU T
Background: Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are suggested to affect human fecundity through longer time to pregnancy (TTP). We studied the relationship between four abundant PFAS and TTP in pregnant women from Greenland, Poland and Ukraine representing varying PFAS exposures and pregnancy planning behaviors. Methods: We measured serum levels of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), perfluorooctane sulfo
Nonoverlapping domain decomposition methods have been utilized for a long time to solve linear and nonlinear elliptic problems, and more recently, parabolic problems. Despite this, there is no convergence theory for nonlinear elliptic and parabolic equations on general Lipschitz domains in Rd, d ≥ 2. We therefore develop a Steklov–Poincaré theory for nonlinear elliptic and parabolic problems and s
As contribution to the debate about the interpretation of the process of economic growth before the Industrial Revolution, we discuss two concerns about the currently available estimates of historical national accounts and the way in which these estimates should be interpreted. Firstly, we argue that estimates of the long-Term trends of economic growth should make use of all information contained
PURPOSE: Exercise during chemotherapy has beneficial long-term effects on women with breast cancer, but short-term beneficial changes have been less investigated. Though short-term changes may be important as a encouraging factor, this study aimed to investigate immediate changes in self-reported energy, stress, nausea and pain following a single exercise session during chemotherapy.METHODS: Forty
