This is followed by more focused parts with the purpose to highlight issues in regard to uprisings and conflicts. Specific attention is given to recent and current political culture and to policies concerning religious and ethnic groups as well
Quantitative MRI provides reproducible ‘maps’ of biophysical parameters that govern MRI contrast. The basic molecular mechanisms – exchange and diffusion – are outlined in a simple way to explain the major determinants of MRI contrast in the brain (macromolecules, myelinated axons, and iron) and the influence of microscopic subspaces (intracellular, vascular, extracellular–extravascular, and myeli
The influence of temperature, salts, pH, and various pre-treatments and cleaning on the nanofiltration (NF) performance of thin-film polyamide (PA) composite membranes has been investigated. The change in membrane performance was correlated to membrane swelling or/and electroviscous friction. Aspects of costs and energy demand while using NF at elevated temperatures were also evaluated. The increa
The article demonstrates historical dimensions between Sweden and Latvia, focusing on contemporary historical debates
There is a growing interest within law schools in the intersections between law and different areas of social theory. The second edition of this popular text introduces a wide range of traditions in sociology and the humanities that offer provocative, contextual views on law and legal institutions. The book is organised into six sections, each with an introduction by the editors, on classical soc
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det romerska triumftåget var en segerprocession som paraderade in i och genom staden Rom efter varje segerrikt fälttåg. I tåget leddes byten och fångar av många olika slag samt avbildningar av erövrade platser och folkslag som tillverkats för processionen. Avhandlingen analyserar dessa uttryck för ”den andre” och diskuterar hur triumftåget både reflekterade och skapade The triumphal procession staged Roman conquest and supremacy, featuring the defeated ‘other’ as opposed to the victorious ‘self’ in a rather fixed role-playing. This thesis takes as its theoretical premise that these ritually recurrent and visually emphatic processions both conveyed and constructed Roman views of the self and the other, and that they can be studied as formative expressions of such

This thesis provides the first attempt to study the nicotinamides and benzamides from a mode of action point of veiw. Understanding the effects on DNA repair, cell cycle control (proliferation) and cell death from these agents and in combination with ionizing radiation, provides a new opportunity to logically develop better approaches to sensitize already existing therapies via for example inducti
We present a rapid occlusion culling algorithm specifically designed for urban environments. For each frame, an occlusion horizon is being built on-the-fly during a hierarchical front-to-back traversal of the scene. All conservatively hidden objects are culled, while all the occluding impostors of all conservatively visible objects are added to the 2½D occlusion horizon. Our framework also support
