Critical raw materials (CRM) are extensively used in tools for metal cutting, such as in cemented carbide tools (cobalt and tungsten), because they provide desired characteristics of high fracture toughness and wear resistance. Both academia and industry are examining CRM-free material alternatives, such as tools based on polycrystalline diamond (PCD) or ceramic materials. These materials are gene
Lunds universitet har uppmanats att ge synpunkter på rubricerad remiss. Universitetet lämnar här följande kommentarer vilka har utarbetats vid Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitet av docent Fredrik N G Andersson och professor emeritus Lars Jonung. Inflationsmålet infördes för över 25 år sedan. Villkoren för att bedriva penningpolitik har förändrats på ett omvälvande sätt under detta kvartssekel.
A solution to the quasistatically propagating mode III crack in an elastic perfectly plastic solid is obtained as the limit solution for vanishingly small linear strain hardening. A point above or below the crack plane will experience, first, a centered fan slip line field followed at the angle ±32.8° ahead of the crack tip by elastic unloading and, finally, from the angle ±179.7° to the crack sur
The Antarctic CM2 carbonaceous chondrite QUE 93005 contains four compositionally distinct carbonates, namely breunnerite, calcite, dolomite and a Ca-poor dolomite. These carbonates can form monomineralic grains, or may be intergrown as bimineralic grains consisting of dolomite plus breunnerite and dolomite plus calcite, or polymineralic grains containing an intergrowth of breunnerite, Ca-poor dolo
Background: Brief Admission is a crisis and risk management strategy in which self-harming and suicidal individuals with three or more diagnostic criteria of borderline personality disorder self-admit to hospital at times of increasing risk when other efforts to stay safe are failing. Standardized in the current randomized controlled trial, the intensity of Brief Admission Skåne is implemented in
A complex reaction mechanism of oxidation of the anti-tubercular prodrug isoniazid (isonicotinic hydrazide, INH) by [IrCl6]2− as a model for redox processes of such drugs in biological systems has been studied in aqueous solution as a function of pH between 0 and 8.5. Similar experiments have been performed with its isomer nicotinic hydrazide (NH). All reactions are overall second-order, first-ordA complex reaction mechanism of oxidation of the anti-tubercular prodrug isoniazid (isonicotinic hydrazide, INH) by [IrCl6]2− as a model for redox processes of such drugs in biological systems has been studied in aqueous solution as a function of pH between 0 and 8.5.

Årsredovisningar handlar inte bara om att kommunicera ett företags resultat och finansiella ställning utan även om att att upprätthålla förtroendet för finansmarknaden och kapitalismen. De fungerar mer som en ritual än som allsidig information, skriver forskarna Henrik Rahm och Peter Svensson.
BackgroundThe aim of this study was to investigate plasma levels of sST2 and sCD163 to determine whether they at an early stage could predict development of diabetic nephropathy and/or diabetic retinopathy in patients at clinical onset.MethodsPatients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus at age 15–34 years between 1987 and 1988 (n = 220) were included. Data such as BMI, smoking, HbA1c and islet cell a
Background Obesity is linked to cardiovascular diseases and increasingly common in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) since the introduction of intensified insulin therapy. Our main aim was to explore associations between obesity and depression, anxiety, alexithymia and self-image measures and to control for lifestyle variables in a sample of persons with T1DM. Secondary aims were to explore associat
There is a growing trend to involve citizens in city development to make urban areas more sustainable and livable. The urban living labs approach offers a way to foster new collaborative, trans-disciplinary ways of thinking in urban planning and development, and provides a real-world testing ground for urban innovation and transformation. This handbook aims to bring open innovation and co-creation
Objective: To investigate patients’ mobility and satisfaction with their lower limb prosthetic or orthotic device and related service delivery in Malawi and to compare groups of patients regarding type and level of device and demographics. Methods: Questionnaires were used to collect self-report data from 83 patients. Results: Ninety percent of prostheses or orthoses were in use by patients, but a
