  1. 1. A methodology for operations-based safety appraisal of two-lane rural highways : Application in Uganda

    Author : Godfrey Mwesige; Harilaos Koutsopoulos; Basil Psarianos; KTH; []
    Keywords : passing zones; passing rate; collision risk; accepted gap; time-to-collision; passing sight distance; two-lane rural highways; Uganda; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Abstract : The majority of the road infrastructure in developing countries consists oftwo-lane highways with one lane in each travel direction. Operational efficiency of these highways is derived fromintermittent passing zones where fast vehicles are permitted by design to pass slow vehicles using the opposite traffic lane. READ MORE

  2. 2. Transcriptional gene signatures : passing the restriction point for routine clinical implementation

    Author : Arian Lundberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Uncontrolled cell growth and cell division are central to the process of tumorigenesis and a number of gene expression signatures have been developed based on genes that are involved in the cell cycle. Notably, gene expression signatures are used extensively in breast cancer research to examine the disease at a molecular level to describe tumour progression, treatment response and patients’ survival.

  3. 3. Creep modelling of particle strengthened steels

    Author : Hans Magnusson; Rolf Sandström; Göran Engberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Particle strengthening; dislocation climb; ferritic steels; dislocation evolution; creep rate modelling; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Materials to be used in thermal power plants have to resist creep deformation for time periods up to 30 years. The role of alloying elements for creep strength of 9-12% Cr steels is analysed. The creep strength in these steels relies on minor additions of alloying elements. READ MORE

  4. 4. Biophysical characterization of protein-protein interactions involving intrinsically disordered proteins

    Author : Ida Nyqvist; Jakob Dogan; Ivarsson Ylva; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Intrinsically disordered proteins; Protein-protein interactions; Disorder-to-order transition; Rate-limiting transition state; Ф-value analysis; NMR relaxation; Side-chain dynamics; Backbone dynamics; Conformational entropy change; Biophysics; biofysik;

    Abstract : Intrinsically disordered proteins and regions (IDPs/Rs) are proteins that do not form stable and well-defined structures in their free states but rather occupy an ensemble of conformations that change over time while still staying functional. They are prevalent in the eukaryotic proteome and are involved in various vital processes in the cell where they often interact with their binding partners through coupled binding and folding reactions.
