The present invention relates to an apparatus designed to perform chemical reaction kinetics studies and more particularly to an apparatus which is capable of conducting accelerated automated kinetics studies with user-defined temperature profiles and sampling periods. This invention also provides treatment strategies based on these predictions and kits to carry out these methods. The fuel injector may also include a control fuel inlet that is separate from the injection fuel inlet port. The membership functions may be stored in a matrix. In other embodiments the traffic control device or systems receives information from vehicles, transmitting it to other vehicles. An eye-closure count section calculates the respective occurrence frequencies of single eye closures in a prescribed measurement period for a first eye-closure period threshold and a second eye-closure period threshold, based on the eye-closure signal and the respective eye-closure period thresholds.
