Twelve cloned viruses were randomly isolated from original (uncloned) vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), and their sensitivities to mouse and human interferons were examined. When the interferon sensitivities of these various VSVs were compared by the plaque reduction method in L cells, virus 3 was found to be sevenfold more sensitive than virus 11, and the interferon sensitivity of the original...

Trajectory sensitivities complement time domain simulation in the analysis of large disturbance dynamic behaviour of power systems. They are formed by linearization around a nonlinear, and possibly non-smooth, trajectory. The influence of parameter variations on large disturbance behaviour can be estimated (to first order) from these sensitivities. Large (small) sensitivities indicate that a pa...
