To evaluate a novel methodology using industrial scanners as reference, and assess in vivo accuracy of 3 intraoral (IOS) conventional impressions. Further, to IOS precision vivo.Four reference-bodies were bonded the buccal surfaces upper premolars incisors five subjects. After three reference-scans, ATOS Core 80 (ATOS), subjects scanned times with systems: 3M True Definition (3M), CEREC Omnicam (OMNI) Trios (TRIOS). One impression (IMPR) was taken, Impregum Penta Soft, poured models...

Faba bean is a promising alternative to soybean for production of protein-rich plant-based foods. Increased understanding the gelling behaviour non-soy legumes can facilitate development novel foods based on other legumes, such as faba bean. A mixture design was used in this study evaluate effect different proportions protein, starch and fibre fractions extracted from beans gelation properties, texture microstructure resulting gels. Large deformation terms fracture stress strain, decreased...

Abstract We show that Swedish wind turbines constructed before 2007 lose 0.15 capacity factor percentage points per year, corresponding to a lifetime energy loss of 6%. A gradual increase downtime accounts for around one third the deterioration and worsened efficiency remaining. Although performance in Sweden is considerably smaller than previously reported UK, it statistically significant calls revision industry practice calculations. The study based on two partly overlapping datasets,...

We suggest a procedure for estimating Nth degree polynomial approximations to unknown (or known) probability density functions (PDFs) based on N statistical moments from each distribution. The is the method of and setup algorithmically aid applicability ensure rigor in use. In order show applicability, PDF are obtained distribution families Normal, Log-Normal, Weibull as well bimodal data set anonymized household electricity results compared with traditional series expansion methods...

At the stage of design load analysis for offshore installations such as wave energy systems, a critical step is determination environmental cases to be evaluated definition characteristic load. A commonly used methodology case selection, applied in multiple studies and recommended by technical specifications guidelines, contour approach. Here, 50-year contours were generated four study sites located North Sea, Skagerrak Baltic Sea considering both observations hindcast (model) data. For...

Results from measurements of the hydrogen uptake in Mo/V single-crystal superlattices with modulation wavelengths (\ensuremath{\Lambda}) 0.3 to 17.7 nm are presented. These studies were performed by profiling, using $^{1}\mathrm{H}$${(}^{15}$N,\ensuremath{\alpha}\ensuremath{\gamma}${)}^{12}$C reaction, and x-ray diffraction. The average metal ratio was found decrease for decreasing \ensuremath{\Lambda}. For \ensuremath{\Lambda}\ensuremath{\ge}13 nm, large structural changes observed, while...

Abstract In cultivar testing, linear mixed models have been used routinely to analyze multienvironment trials. A single‐stage analysis is considered as the gold standard, whereas two‐stage produces similar results when a fully efficient weighting method used, namely full variance–covariance matrix of estimated means from Stage 1 forwarded 2. However, in practice, this may be hard do and diagonal approximation often used. We conducted cross‐validation with data Swedish trials on winter wheat...

Most Campylobacter infections in humans are sporadic cases, often connected to private households. Chicken meat is believed be the main source of human exposure and there significant risks cross-contamination when handling Campylobacter-contaminated chicken kitchen. One post-harvest preventive measure reduce concentrations on freezing. This study examined survival different sequence types C. jejuni during freezing risk factors jejuni–contaminated fillets were artificially contaminated before...

Campylobacteriosis is the most frequently reported foodborne illness in Europe and many other parts of world. Campylobacter can colonize intestines broilers, mostly large amounts. Broilers are usually slaughtered a high-speed automated system that could cause rupture during evisceration, resulting contamination carcasses with intestinal bacteria like Campylobacter. This study evaluated combined effects ultrasound steam (SonoSteam) on naturally contaminated chicken at large-scale abattoir...

Transport crates for poultry can contribute to the spread of pathogens, with those public health interest, example, Campylobacter, being particular importance. A strict cleaning procedure and use an effective disinfection method transport equipment are thus important avoid introduction Campylobacter chicken farms, particularly during flock thinning. This study evaluated efficacy currently in at one largest slaughter plants Sweden compared effects other methods. The evaluation was based on...

Estimation of so-called return levels for environmental extremes is importance risk assessment. A particular challenge to find estimates corresponding long periods, as uncertainties in the form confidence intervals became too wide practical use when applying conventional methodology where large portions data are not used. recently proposed technique, Average Conditional Exceedance Rate (ACER), makes effective all available data. For analysis related nuclear infrastructure, usually located...

Abstract At nuclear power plants, risk analysis concerning environmental extremes is crucial. Based on historical data, estimation of return levels usually performed. For long periods, a problem that the related uncertainties often get large. Moreover, models need to take into account possible effects climate change. In this paper, extreme sea close Swedish plants are considered. Non-stationary statistical and results conditional prediction during typical time horizon an infrastructure...

This paper presents a Bernoulli distribution model for plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) charging based on high resolution activity data Swedish driving patterns. Based the “driving vehicle” from time diary study Monte Carlo simulation is made of PEV state charge which then condensed down to distributions representing each hour during weekday and weekend day. These are used as basis simulations Results regarding patterns number different parameters shown along with comparison results stochastic...

Abstract In wind integration studies, sub‐hourly, load synchronous data are often preferable. These datasets can be generated by a hybrid approach, combining hourly measurements or output from meteorological models with stochastic simulation of the high‐frequency fluctuations. This paper presents method for simulating aggregated intra‐hourly power fluctuations system, taking into account time‐varying volatility seen in measurements. Some key elements modelling were transformations to...
