En traktor med skogsvagn är ett tämligen stort ekipage som i skogen sällan har gott om plats att ta sig fram på. För att göra det möjligt är många skogsvagnar utrustade med en extra led på dragstången, så kallad vagnstyrning. Denna led används för att förskjuta vagnen i sidled och därmed anpassa dess färdväg. Detta är mycket användbart i skogen då det medför att, med rätt inställning, vagnen följeA tractor with a forest trailer is a large vehicle combination. When it is driven in the woods there is not a lot of space. To make it possible to turn in limited spaces forest trailers are equipped with an extra joint on the drawbar. This is called drawbar steering. This joint changes the geometry of the trailer in order to make it take another path. This feature is very convenient in the forest

Introduction: This paper reports results from an ethnographic study of teacher trainees’ information activities in digital, group-based learning and their relation to the interplay between use and appropriation of digital tools and the learning environment. Method. The participants in the present study are 249 pre-school teacher trainees in Sweden. Three key informants and their teams were followe

Hobbing is a common manufacturing method when producing helical, involute gears. In order to increase tool life and surface finish, an accurate method to determine chip geometry is needed. Although this accurateness may involve numeric solutions, the geometric description must, as far as possible, be analytic and give a description of the continuously changing chip geometry. In this report, the c

It is tempting to assume that Information Systems Development Methodology (ISDM) is clearly understood because it has attracted researchers across a range of research fields offering a rich set of descriptions and explanations of ISDM. Although there are considerable studies on ISDM, this paper argues that different disciplinary interests have resulted in fragmented assessments. Consequently, this

Popular Abstract in Swedish Laddade partiklar är kända för att sända ut ljus när de rör sig i en krökt bana. Detta ljus kallas synkrotronljus och upptäcktes i mitten av 1900-talet. Sedan dess har det använts i forskning inom kemi, biologi, medicin och materialvetenskap. Utveckling av speciella maskiner för att producera synkrotronljus blev nödvändig för att fortsätta att tillgodose behoven inom deTo ensure the beam with an ultralow emittance and high current the possible effects deteriorating the beam stability must be investigated. When ultrarelativistic particles travel in the vacuum chamber they induce electromagnetic fields which can act back on them and the following particles. The interaction of the beam with the surrounding environment can be described by wakefields in time domain a

Next-generation sequencing experiments have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) are expressed in many different isoforms (isomiRs), whose biological relevance is often unclear. We found that mature miR-21, the most widely researched miRNA because of its importance in human disease, is produced in two prevalent isomiR forms that differ by 1 nt at their 3' end, and moreover that the 3' end of miR-21 is po

The Atlantic auk assemblage includes four extant species, razorbill (Alca torda), dovekie (Alle alle), common murre (Uria aalge), and thick-billed murre (U. lomvia), and one recently extinct species, the flightless great auk (Pinguinus impennis). To determine the phylogenetic relationships among the species, a contiguous 4.2-kb region of the mitochondrial genome from the extant species was amplifi

Shannon's seminal approach to estimating information capacity is widely used to quantify information processing by biological systems. However, the Shannon information theory, which is based on power spectrum estimation, necessarily contains two sources of error: time delay bias error and random error. These errors are particularly important for systems with relatively large time delay values and

The article analyzes the recent genre of Islamic children’s picture books, originally produced as a means of religious socialization for the British Muslim communities, but marked on a global Islamic market. Particular attention is devoted to the visual norms of the books produced by one of the pioneering publishers of Islamic children’s literature, the Islamic Foundation. With one foot in the ped

To ascertain the epigenomic features, i.e., the methylation, non-coding RNA, and gene expression patterns, associated with gain of i(12p) in Pallister-Killian syndrome (PKS), we investigated single cell clones, harboring either disomy 12 or tetrasomy 12p, from a patient with PKS. The i(12p)-positive cells displayed a characteristic expression and methylation signature. Of all the genes on 12p, 13%

This brief presents a low-complexity system for digitally assisting a channel select filter (CSF) to mitigate both even- and odd-order nonlinearities. The proposed solution is scalable and can be utilized for nonlinearity mitigation in different analog transceiver blocks. The system consists of an auxiliary path with a low-resolution analog to digital converter (ADC) enabling digital recreation an

Popular Abstract in Swedish Principen för biologisk vattenreningsteknik är att mikroorganismer används för att bryta ner olika typer av föroreningar. Då det finns en stor mängd olika sorters mikroorganismer, kan flera typer av nedbrytningsmekanismer och processutformningar utnyttjas för olika krav och syften. Nackdelen med biologisk vattenreningsteknik är dock att den är känslig för störningar ochThe aim of the thesis was to investigate how different abiotic and biotic parameters may affect microorganisms and the process performance in various biological wastewater treatment systems. The type of carbon source in the influent wastewater may have a profound effect on the composition and the activity of denitrifying activated sludge bacteria in nutrient removal. Of four investigated carbon s

The work presented in this dissertation is concerned with the microstructures and surface roughness of test slabs of Ti-6Al-4V produced by one of powder based Additive Manufacturing (AM) technique namely electron beam melting (EBM). The effects of process parameters of a EBM system and geometry factors of a EBM build such as slabs’ thickness and height etc. on the microstructure and the surface ro

The aim of this thesis is to examine the relationship between writing and alterity in three recent novels written by J. M. G. Le Clézio, Désert (1980), Onitsha (1991) and La quarantaine (1995), which deal with the encounter between the so-called primitive cultures and Western society. The first chapter contains a more general discussion on the discourse of alterity in literature and the French exo

The European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC), which covers a large cohort of half a million men and women from 23 European centres in 10 Western European countries, was designed to study the relationship between diet and the risk of chronic diseases, particularly cancer. Information on usual individual dietary intake was assessed using different validated dietary assessm

This is the first report of the Twin Mom Study, an investigation. of three hypotheses concerning influences on maternal adjustment. These hypotheses concern the role of the marital and parent-child relationships in mediating genetic influences on maternal adjustment and on the importance of the mothers' marital partners as a specifiable source of influences on their adjustment not shared with thei

The capacity of downlink cellular multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, where co-channel interference is the dominant. channel impairment, is investigated in this paper, mainly from a signal-processing perspective. Turbo space-time multiuser detection (ST MUD) is employed for intracell communications and is shown to closely approach the ultimate capacity limits in Gaussian ambient noise f
