Swedish patent nr 189939. "Anordning för alstring av ett artificiellt tröghetsmoment hos ett roterbart anordnat system". (Device for creating an artificial moment of inertia in a rotating system.) Co-inventor Folke Hector Philips. Granted January 16 1964. Patent also granted in England, France, Holland, Canada, Germany, USA, Austria, Japan. This patent describes a new way of implementing Schuler

Fluorescence spectroscopy in two different biomedical applications have been studied. One field has been to explore whether fluorescence spectroscopy can be used to determine the depth of a fluorescent object inside a tissue-like medium. Recorded fluorescence spectra depend on the localisation of the fluorescent inclusion and may provide additional information for optical tomography. The second ma

In this article, we investigate public support for eco-social policies combining goals of social justice and ecological sustainability. Eco-social policies contribute both to providing a social floor or redistributing resources to where they are needed and to respecting an ecological ceiling by keeping human activities within ecological limits. We discuss five such policies and highlight arguments

Blood-based markers (BBMs) have recently shown promise to revolutionize the diagnostic and prognostic work-up of Alzheimer's disease (AD), as well as to improve the design of interventional trials. Here we discuss in detail further research needed to be performed before widespread use of BBMs. We already now recommend use of BBMs as (pre-)screeners to identify individuals likely to have AD patholo

Contemporary research and teaching on global environmental politics (GEP) draw upon many approaches to understanding the ways in which states and societies respond to transboundary environmental problems (see Chapter 2). Approaches that emphasize the state (see Chapter 7) and international organizations (see Chapter 8) derive in a straightforward way from scholarly work in international relations

This paper studies how degraded material properties in near proximity to the cut edge influence the torque performance of an axial-flux induction machine. The magnetically degraded areas are characterized using a layering approach, where the magnetic hysteresis curve describing the material is remodeled so that the field strength required to reach a specific value of magnetic flux density is incre

Nondestructive testing of composite materials is important in aerospace applications, and mm-wave imaging has been increasingly used for this purpose. Imaging is traditionally performed using Fourier methods, with inverse methods being an alternative. This communication presents a mm-wave imaging method with an inverse approach intended for nondestructive testing of singly curved composite panels
