In his excellent book Normvetenskap (Norm Science), has initiated an interesting discussion on strategic normative thinking (SNT). This article presents a case study trying to verify, falsify or, if possible, shed light upon aspects upon SNT. The unit of analysis for the study is the concept of norms and the operational set of measures relates to research on norms. The analysis of the case show´s
Abstract Background and aims. Microscopic colitis (MC), predominantly affecting women, is associated with thyroid disorders, although purely defined of which type, or compared with controls. Its association with subclinical thyroid disorders, and related increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, has never been examined. The aim was to examine the prevalence of autoantibodies and subclinical and c
There is biological evidence that human actions are composed out of action primitives, like words and sentences being composed out of phonemes. Similarly to language processing, one possibility to model and recognize complex actions is to use grammars with action primitives as the alphabet. A major challenge here is that the action primitives need to be recovered first from the noisy input signal
Objectives. To estimate the incidence of fatal colonic ischaemia (CI) and the cause-specific mortality of CI, and to describe the localization and extension of colonic infarction and quantify the risk factors associated with CI. Material and methods. Between 1970 and 1982 the autopsy rate in Malmo, Sweden, was 87%, creating the possibilities for a population-based study. Out of 23,446 clinical aut
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations give atomically detailed information on structure and dynamics in amphiphilic bilayer systems on timescales up to about 1 μs. The reorientational dynamics of the C-H bonds is conventionally verified by measurements of (13)C or (2)H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) longitudinal relaxation rates R1, which are more sensitive to motional processes with correlation t
Long-chain acyl-CoA thioesterases hydrolyze longchain acyl-CoAs to the corresponding free fatty acid and CoASH and may therefore play important roles in regulation of lipid metabolism. We have recently cloned four members of a highly conserved acyl-CoA thioesterase multigene family expressed in cytosol (CTE-I), mitochondria (MTE-I), and peroxisomes (PTE-Ia and -Ib), all of which are regulated via
The concept of optical coherence tomography (OCT) for high-resolution imaging of tissues in vivo is introduced. Analytical and numerical models for describing and understanding the light propagation in samples imaged by OCT systems are presented. An analytical model for calculating the OCT signal based on the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle and valid both for single and multiple scattering regi
The EU is as a supranational organization based on the thought of the formation of an emerging common European economy. European Parliament and Council Directive 2004/38/EC was put into force in 2004 and is the latest involving the EU rules on free movement within the EU territory. The directive, called the directive on free movement, can also be seen as a part of the plan of a strong Europe given
Purpose – This study aims to enable robotic friction stir welding (FSW) in practice. The use of robots has hitherto been limited, because of the large contact forces necessary for FSW. These forces are detrimental for the position accuracy of the robot. In this context, it is not sufficient to rely on the robot’s internal sensors for positioning. This paper describes and evaluates a new method for
A reduced-order through-flow program has been developed at the Lund Institute of Technology. The goal of the work was to develop and verify a program suitable for scientific studies of coaxial turbines. The program has built-in capability for multiple choked stages, and turbine cooling, as well as flexible modules for state, losses, deviation, and blockage. The code uses Matlab [trademark] as a pl
In the previous decades, mm-Wave frequency bands have largely been ignored for cellular communication because of the high free space attenuation as well as the cost and complexity of mm-Wave RF circuits. However, with the improvement of RF and antenna technologies over the last decade, it has become feasible to con- sider mm-Wave bands for cellular communications. With the large bandwidths availab
Nowadays, many industries are investing a lot of resources in the development of new technologies that interpret hand gestures and use them as a communication interface between the user and the system. However, the surveillance industries have remained on the sidelines of this technological development. Instead, the joystick and the mouse are the most common devices found in control rooms. Using t
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vid extern strålbehandling används en s.k. linjäraccelerator för att producera och leverera den önskade strålningen till cancertumörer. I linjäracceleratorn accelereras elektroner till nära ljusets hastighet och styrs sedan mot en metalplatta där de bromsas upp och genererar bromsstrålningsfotoner (högenergetisk röntgenstrålning). Intensiteten av den strålning som sändsThe aim of this work was to investigate the dosimetric effects of removing the flattening filter from conventional C-arm medical linear accelerators. In conventional linear accelerators used for radiotherapy, a flattening filter is positioned in the beam line to provide a uniform lateral dose profile at a specified depth in water. However, for some radiotherapy treatments, a uniform lateral dose p
Dagligen möts vi av bilder på barn som vårdnadshavare har publicerat på sociala medier. Ett exempel på detta är Calle Schulmans Instagramkonto där videoklipp på hans femåriga dotter läggs upp regelbundet. Frågan uppkommer om, och i vilken utsträckning, en vårdnadshavare får publicera personlig information om sitt barn. Vilka rättsliga medel och möjligheter finns att tillgå för barn om de känner siDaily we encounter pictures of children on social media, published by their custodians. One example of this is the Instagram account of Calle Schulman, where video sequences of his five-year-old daughter are frequently published. This raises the question whether custodians are allowed to publish personal information in this manner. What legal measures and opportunities are available to children wh
This project explored the usage and effectiveness of a natural water filtration system using xylem from Picea Abies, or Norway Spruce. The project is concentrated on the region of southeast and south Asia where people suffer from water contamination, providing a concept of a water filter with comprehensive protection against waterborne diseases. The study implemented secondary research on product
Uppsatsen behandlar beviskravet i brottmål och alternativa hypoteser i förhållande till åklagarens gärningspåstående. Beviskravet innebär att rättens övertygelse om den tilltalades skuld ska vara ställd bortom rimligt tvivel. Eftersom att lagreglering saknas om beviskravet har detta fastställts i praxis. Komplikationerna med ämnet är huvudsakligen att det inte klargjorts utförligt, i varken doktriThe thesis concerns with the evidence requirement in criminal processes and alternative hypotheses in relation to the prosecutor's accusation of crime. The requirement of proof means that the court's conviction of the defendant's debt must be “beyond reasonable doubt”. Due to lack of legislation on the proof requirement, it has instead been established in court practice. The mainly com
En grundprincip inom svensk processrätt är den fria bevisprövningen. Den fria bevisprövningen framstår dock inte som helt självklar genom inflytande från främst europeisk rätt. I denna uppsats undersöks principen om fri bevisförings ställning vid konflikter mellan nationell rätt och internationella överenskommelser. Undersökningen görs genom klarläggande av praxis från Europadomstolen och HögstaA fundamental part of Swedish procedural law is the principle that the process of both submitting evidence and the evaluation of this evidence should be free, as in not regulated by law. Due to Swedens international agreements such as being a member of the European Union brings with them some legally binding demands. The main purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the standing of this principle w
