Reading and writing development - A longitudinal study from pre-school to adolescence: status report

During the last two decades there has been an increasing tendency to regard reading and writing as linguistic activities. In numerous studies, pre-school children’s linguistic and metalinguistic abilities have been related to their emerging reading and writing skills during the first school years. However, the frequency of such studies tends to decrease as the children grow older, and there are ve

Integrating Fatigue Risk Management into an Airline's Safety Management System

The evolution of a system for the management of fatigue-related risks in airline and maintenance operations is at present a contentious issue. The aspirations for the integration of fatigue risk management processes into existing Safety Management System (SMS) guidelines need to be placed in the realities of the present economic and commercial environment – they therefore need to exhibit relevance

Numerical simulations of light scattering by red blood cells

The electromagnetic scattering properties of red blood cells were analyzed by three different methods. The finite-different time-domain method is a general and flexible approach and enables accurate simulations of scattering from objects with arbitrary shape. This method was compared with two approximate methods: the Rytov approximation and the Discrete Dipole Approximation. The interaction of light
