German language article in German weekly "Die Zeit", analysing the legacy of the UN climate summit in Copenhagen in Dec. 2009: "The poor countries' insurgence"Was ist das Vermächtnis von Kopenhagen? Auch wenn kostbare Zeit verschenkt wurde, die Konferenz hinterlässt keinen reinen Scherbenhaufen, sondern einen klaren Auftrag, die Interessen der ärmsten Länder stärker zu berücksichtigen. Wer jetzt r
In this paper I discuss the construction of the right to family planning in Indonesian Law. I conclude that the right to family planning is given its content and meaning by two discourses, which each establishes the right by chains of equivalence that orient around the nodal points of ‘Health’ and ‘Prosperous Family’. I find that the relevant subject positions available to the individual through t
The purpose of the present study is threefold. Firstly, I wish to investigate the phenomenon of double supines in colloquial Swedish. In doing so, I hope to achieve my second purpose, which is to take a first step towards a better understanding of a particular kind of complementation of which the double supine construction forms a subset. I will refer to this complementation as parasitic complemen
In low-cycle fatigue, where plastic strains are of great importance, final ductile fracture depends upon the mechanisms of void growth and coalescence of voids. A cell model is used to simulate a periodic array of initial spherical voids and this model is subjected to different loads that include cyclic loading. Three different types of matrix material are simulated: elastic-perfectly plastic, iso
To achieve a relatively consistent probability of failure for structural elements, most design codes apply reliability based code calibration process. Such approaches commonly focus on the ultimate strength of the structural members, which is related to the ultimate limit state (ULS). In the design of steel beams the performance of the structural elements is often limited by the serviceability req
