Since 2009 initiatives that were selected for the roadmap of the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures started working to build research infrastructures for a wide range of research disciplines. An important result of the strategic discussions was that distributed infrastructure scenarios were now seen as “complex research facilities” in addition to, for example traditional centralis

Supply chain management includes coordination and motivation of independently operating partners. Therefore, it is important to align logistics structures, processes and incentives, especially when making major changes involving those components. Traditionally, cost, quality, and service have served as prioritized performance indicators for supply chains, but lately risk is also taken into conside

Scania, the dangerous peninsula. History, identity and ideology 1865 to 2000 This dissertation deals with the organized written history of Scania 1865 to 2000 and the intersection of history, identity and ideology. Under what circumstances were the history produced and circulated? What was its significance for identity and ideology alike? The theoretical and analytical inspiration is drawn from P

This work is primarily about the development, validation and application of computer simulation models for intrinsically disordered proteins, both in solution and in the presence of uniformly charged, ideal surfaces. The models in question are either coarse-grained or atomistic in nature, and their applications are dependent on the specific purpose of each study. Both, Metropolis Monte Carlo and m

Grunderna i cancerbehandling är kirurgi, strålterapi och behandling med cancerläkemedel, ofta i kombination med varandra. Regimer med cancerläkemedel som definierar det eller de läkemedel som används, deras doser, hur ofta och hur länge de ska ges, har utvecklats och används för olika cancerdiagnoser. Flera professioner inom sjukvården är involverade i behandlingen: läkaren som ordinerar läkemedleThe basics in cancer treatment are surgery, radiation therapy, and treatment with cancer drugs, often combined. Chemotherapy regimens that define the drugs used, the dosage, the frequency and duration of drug administration, have been developed and used for different cancer diagnoses. Several healthcare professionals are involved in the treatment: the physician prescribing the drugs, the pharmacis

Sagem Défense et Sécurité (now Safran Electronics & Defense), a French space and defense company of the SAFRAN group, is working on the next generation of Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). This UAS features a fully automatic Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) equipped with a state-of-the-art navigation system. This navigation system relies mainly on a high-accuracy Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) coupl

Although carbonate-carbon (C), an integral part of biochar-C, contributes to the liming properties of that material, it also interferes with the estimation of the stable organic C fraction in biochars. In this study, four methods were compared in order to quantify the carbonate-C in biochars: two direct (a titrimetric procedure and thermogravimetric analysis, TGA), and two indirect (acid treatment

Two sets of ribosome structures have recently led to two different interpretations of what limits the accuracy of codon translation by transfer RNAs. In this review, inspired by this intermezzo at the Ribosome Club, we briefly discuss accuracy amplification by energy driven proofreading and its implementation in genetic code translation. We further discuss general ways by which the monitoring base

På gående fot färdas man hastigt mellan kontinenterna. Venedigbiennalen är en plats där länder kan se världen och samtidigt synas för världen. Sedan 1895 har Biennalen samlat världens främsta konstnärer och arkitekter. Sverige delar en paviljong med Norge och Finland, vilket innebär konstnärliga kompromisser och att Sveriges enbart deltar var tredje biennal. Examensarbetet föreslår en svensk natiTraveling by foot, one swiftly moves between continents. The Venice Biennale is a place where countries can see the world and, at the same time, be seen by the world. Since 1895, the Biennale has brought together the world’s leading artists and architects. Sweden shares a pavilion with Norway and Finland, which means artistic compromises and Sweden’s participation only every third Biennale. The t

Introduction Prevalence of planned pregnancies varies between countries but is often measured in a dichotomous manner. The aim of this study was to investigate to what level pregnant women had planned their pregnancies and whether pregnancy planning was associated with background characteristics and pregnancy-planning behavior. Material and methods A cross-sectional study that utilized the baselin

Studiens syfte var att undersöka hbtq+-personers upplevelser och hantering av minoritetsstress i nära relationer samt upplevda konsekvenser på hälsan och de nära relationerna. Detta gjordes genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med tio personer, som bröt mot cis- och/eller heteronormen. En tematisk analys av berättelserna utmynnade i tre huvudteman: Omvänd skuld- och ansvarsfördelning, Två sidor av mThe aim of this study was to explore how LGBTQ+ people experience and cope with minority stress in their close relationships, how minority stress affects the relationships and what health implications might come from it. Ten semi-structured interviews were conducted with LGBTQ+ individuals. A thematic analysis of the stories resulted in three main themes: Reverse guilt and liability, Two sides of
