The physical and chemical changes of a waste mixture consist ing of mumcipal solid waste (MSW) and sewage sludge were investigated during the anaerobic waste stablilization phases of the mixture. The emphasis of this study was the behavior of heavy metals. The waste was deposited in a test cell in 1973. It was found that the waste mass decreased by about 30% (wt) during the years 1973 to 1993 and

The medieval Swedish knittelvers has traditionally been analysed as consisting of end-rhymed verses of four beats, each divided into half-lines by a cæsura. While the rhymes are obvious, the four beats and the cæsura are not. Notwithstanding this uncertainty, the traditional analysis has persisted, and has recently been reinforced by Wåhlin (1989, 1999) who stresses the regularity of the four-beat

Linguistic text research typically operates with methods, models and categories that conceive of texts as formal, static and discrete units. This also seems to hold for socially oriented theories, though their views naturally are more contextually oriented. Examples are given from systemic-functional linguistics, critical discourse analysis and social semiotics. In contrast, hermeneutics hastradit

This deliverable showcases the progress and demonstrators of services integration between the ESFRI Cluster of Environmental Research Infrastructures and the European Open Science Cloud. It highlights the successful onboarding of the ENVRI Catalogue of Services onto the EOSC Marketplace, improving visibility and accessibility. Ongoing discussions with OpenAIRE aim to enhance the discoverability of

The ENVRI-Hub design study contains the analysis of the technical preconditions for the successful implementation of the design ENVRI-Hub as a centralised access interface to environmental data and services building upon the increase of FAIRness achieved in the ENVRI-FAIR project; it will be based on the validation results from WP7 and Task T5.4, and the achievements in the subdomain implementatio

This is the final deliverable of WP6, the training and capacity building work package of ENVRI-FAIR. The objectives of WP6 were to provide training to ENVRIs and key ENVRI stakeholder groups about the FAIR principles, how to implement these in practice in RI services and data management activities at data centre level, how to evaluate the degree of implementation using FAIR metrics, as well as rel

En stor del av språkvetenskapen vilar sedan länge på en snäv idé om sitt kunskapsobjekt. Inställningen är nomotetisk och logocentrisk. Med språk avses ett regelbundet system. Fastän denna inställning mött mycket motstånd, har den väl i praktiken aldrig skakats i grunden. Denna undersökning försöker därför ännu en gång att presentera ett alternativt språkbegrepp. Teorin är dialogisk och hermeneutis

MARK RAMBARAN visar hur en molekyl som innehåller övergångsmetallen niob kan användas som byggsten för att designa material för exempelvis energilagring.

The paper examines the entries of 36 words for common animal sounds in two online English dictionaries, Cambridge Dictionaries and The Merriam-Webster.com Dictionary, to see what information is provided in the entries. Previous work on English dictionaries has focused on meaning explanations of referential, arbitrary words. With the examination of onomatopoeic words for animal sounds, this paper e

This article investigates if cryptocurrencies returns' are similarly affected by a selection of demand- and supply-side determinants. Homogeneity among cryptocurrencies is tested via a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) model where determinants of Bitcoin returns are applied to a sample of 12 cryptocurrencies. The analysis goes beyond existing research by simultaneously coveri

This chapter analyses responses of European policymakers to the Covid-19 pandemic’s first and second waves. It is based on an empirical analysis where patterns are sought between contextual factors and policy responses. The results shows that that macroeconomic conditions and policy interactions appear to matter more than countries’ number of Covid-19 cases. The level of government indebtedness ca

The Tamil procedures for computing the circumstances of eclipses were reported by the French astronomer Guillaume Le Gentil from his visit to India in the 1760's. This paper investigates these Tamil procedures for a solar eclipse, focusing on the procedures for finding the eclipse parallax which are needed to describe the local appearance of an eclipse. These procedures constitute the essential di

There is a clinical need for conceptually new treatments that target the excessive activation of inflammatory pathways during systemic infection. Thrombin-derived C-terminal peptides (TCPs) are endogenous anti-infective immunomodulators interfering with CD14-mediated TLR-dependent immune responses. Here we describe the development of a peptide-based compound for systemic use, sHVF18, expressing th

BackgroundOlder adults have a high prevalence of chronic pain, which can have a substantial effect on their health and quality of life. Patients’ use of effective pain relief methods is a central part of the treatment and management of chronic pain. The utilization of pain relief methods and their perceived effectiveness are important knowledge for treating and managing chronic pain for clinicians
