A formula is proposed for the longshore sediment transport in the swash based on the study by Larson et al. on swash-zone transport and foreshore evolution. Hydrodynamics needed to predict the local transport rate were derived from ballistics theory, where both the cases with and without friction were investigated. The formula was validated with data from two experiments carried out in the Large-s

The Bremmer series is used to reduce a complex scattering problem to a sequence of simpler single scattering problems. In the Bremmer series, the wave equation is first decomposed into a coupled system of one-way wave equations. The system is then decoupled into a sequence of one-way wave equations with a fixed point iteration. In this paper, a left symbol representation of the decomposition opera

Popular Abstract in Swedish Urinavledning utförs när den normala urinblåsan ej fungerar normalt eller måste avlägsnas p.g.a. cancer. Vid operation enl. Bricker sys urinledarna till ett isolerat tarmsegment ( konduktor ), vars ena ände mynnar på huden som en stomi. Över öppningen på huden har patienten sedan ett uppsamlingsförband för urinen, en ' påse på magen'. Kontinenta former av urinvägsrekonsIn a long-term prospective follow-up in patients randomized to an ileal or colonic conduit, with implantation of one ureter using antireflux technique and the other without, the fall in the mean total GFR exceeded the expected age-related decline. The fall in the mean separate GFR did not differ between refluxing and antirefluxing anastomosis. Patients with a continent caecal reservoir (antireflux

The Writer:
Sigrid Combüchen was born in Solingen in the German Ruhr territory 1942. Shortly after the War her family moved to Sweden. She is a Swedish writer and literary critic and has so far published seven novels, a collection of essays and a biography (on the Norwegian novelist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature 1920, Knut Hamsun). She received the 2004 Selma Lagerlöf Prize a

High-level modeling languages are receiving increased industrial and academic interest within several domains, such as chemical engineering, thermo-fluid systems and automotive systems. One such modeling language is Modelica. Modelica is an open language, specifically targeted at multi-domain modeling and model re-use. Key features of Modelica include object oriented modeling, declarative equation

This paper presents a readily computable formula for the real stability radius with respect to an arbitrary stability region in the complex plane.

Objectives: Gallstone disease (cholelithiasis) has a familial component, but detailed data on the modification of familial risk are lacking. Using nationwide hospital and population records, we aimed to determine detailed familial risks for medically diagnosed gallstone disease.Design: Subjects were obtained from the Multigeneration Register, which contains family data on the Swedish population, a

The typical approach for archaeological analysis is mainly qualitative and, as such, subjective. Even when some measures are reported in the documentation of artefacts, they are often approximate or ambiguous. Conversely, the quantitative approach is based on objective metrics to produce replicable results and, coupled with digital tools, can assist the qualitative analysis in archaeological resea

The Nordic region, comprising primarily Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, has many of the necessary characteristics for being at the forefront of genome-based precision medicine. These include egalitarian and universal healthcare, expertly curated patient and population registries, biobanks, large population-based prospective cohorts linked to registries and biobanks, and a wi
