Sammanfattning For every operating condition of an internal combustion engine there exists an optimal spark timing, called maximum brake torque (MBT), which maximises the output torque and the efficiency of the engine. Traditionally MBT timing is implemented as an open-loop control where the ignition timing is found by using a combination of static lookup tables and sensor information. With a d...

Zusammenfassung. Im Folgenden werden die Ergebnisse des letzten Tre ens unseres Arbeitskreises Testen objektorientierter Programme/Modellbasiertes Testen (TOOP/MBT) kurz dargestellt. Das Treffen mit 21 Teilnehmern fand im Rahmen des 39. Treffens der GI-Fachgruppe Test, Analyse und Veri kation von Software (TAV) am 24. 06. 2016 in Bremen statt. Thema der inhaltlichen Diskussion war abermals, wie...

The Unified Process (UP) is a software development technique that includes modeling of specifications and testing workflow. This workflow is achieved by information interpretation of specification to produce manual tests. In this paper, we extend the UP with model-based testing (MBT) where models resulting of the UP will be used for MBT. We describe how model-based testing introduces new test d...

The properties of the 17-item Mentalization-Based Treatment Adherence and Competence Scale (MBT-ACS) were investigated in a reliability study in which 18 psychotherapy sessions, comprising two sessions by nine different therapists, were rated by seven different raters. The overall reliabilities for adherence and competence for seven raters were high, .84 and .88 respectively. The level of relia...

In the last decade, worldwide research has focused on innovative natural biocides and development of organic inorganic nanomaterials for long-lasting reliability. this work, biocide effects two different encapsulated in silica nanosystems a multifunctional coating have been performed through vitro tests, by using Chlorococcum sp. as common stone biodeteriogen. Zosteric sodium salt (ZS), green b...

The minimum brightness temperature (mBT) of seawater in the polar region is an important parameter algorithms for determining sea ice concentration or snow depth. To estimate mBT at 6.925 GHz Arctic and Antarctic Oceans to find their physical characteristics, we collected data from Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) eight years 2012 2020. estimated shows constant annual values, bu...

Integrated solid waste management (ISWM) strategies are developed towards promoting sustainable approaches for handling waste. Recently, gasification and mechanical biological treatment (MBT) technologies were recognized as effective processes treating municipal This study investigates the feasibility of integrating MBT in multiple ISWM strategies, compared to incineration- anaerobic digestion ...

BACKGROUND In this multi-centre randomized controlled trial (RCT) we compared modified mentalisation-based treatment (MBT-ED) to specialist supportive clinical management (SSCM-ED) in patients with eating disorders (EDs) and borderline personality disorder symptoms (BPD). This group of patients presents complex challenges to clinical services, and a treatment which addresses their multiple prob...

Resources embedded in the waste streams are often not properly recovered and mostly ended up landfills or only as energy via energy-from-waste (EfW) facilities. Innovative resource recovery from strategies urgently needed to maximise efficiency, divert reduce reliance on EfW. This study proposes a novel mechanical-biological treatment with valorisation concept (MBT-v) that combines material fue...

Dear Readers, Microbial Biotechnology (MBT) is undergoing a number of interesting changes that we would like to report. The first is its transition to an author-pays open access model from 2013. We believe open access will offer the journal a number of advantages, including the flexibility to grow without the constraints of a page budget, and substantial increases in exposure, with all articles...
