This article presents research done in order to analyse the machinability of duplex stainless steel with coated carbide tools during turning operations. Although duplex stainless steel has existed for about 70 years fairly little work has been published in the area of investigating the different aspects of the machining of these materials. In this research project three different kinds of duplex s

On the first of January 1992 the present Equal Opportunity Act came into force. A central aim of this law is to improve the conditions of women's working life. One aspect of the law is the possibility to serve as a mean of shifting the balance of power between the sexes. This is meant to be achieved through the inclusion of requirements for active measures to promote equality. As a part of their s

This thesis deals with legal issues arisen from consumer-activated payment orders, regarding credit transfers, which are initiated via the Internet under an agreement (about using Internet-services) previously entered into between the bank and the payer (or the originator). This Internet-service is in the thesis called Internet banking. More and more customers, both consumers and others, activate

In this paper I consider whether eudamonism—i.e. the thesis that the ultimate aim of human life and conduct is the attainment of happiness and that the achievement of this goal is closely linked to the acquisition and exercise of moral virtue and tranquillity of the soul—could serve as a framework for a theory of rights. I argue that the eudaimonist’s chances to ground a theory of rights from with

Sheep and goats are some of the most important animals in prehistoric Scandinavia. The habitus of the animals was used and transformed into cultural categories. Owing to their important and long-term utility they were ritualised during the pre-Christian periods. The role of these animals and the attitudes towards them in and beyond Norse paganism is discussed with habitus perspectives applied to t

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state welding process where metals are joined without melting. Heat is generated by friction between a rotating non-consumable tool and the work-piece material, and by mechanical deformation of the material. The process, invented in 1991, provides several benefits over arc welding and other fusion processes: No filler material has to be added, low energy cons

Under tusentals år trodde människan att detta var Universums mittpunkt. Tack vare vår nyfikenhet, fantasi och lust att upptäcka, vet vi nu att planeter som vår Jord inte är särskilt ovanliga i kosmos. Solen är bara en vanlig stjärna bland hundratals miljoner andra i vår galax, Vintergatan.Med hjälp av världens mest kraftfulla teleskop kan vi utforska mer och mer av Universum. Det vi hittills har uFor thousands of years, mankind thought that this was the centre of the Universe. Thanks to our curiosity, imagination and urge to explore, we now know that planets like our Earth are nothing special in the cosmos. The Sun is just one ordinary star among hundreds of billions in our galaxy, the Milky Way.With the world’s most powerful telescopes, we are able to explore more and more of the Universe

Vi dyker tillsammans ner i tropiska hav och observerar tusentals färgglada fiskar simma förbi oss. Vi reser runt Jorden och undersöker olika typer av korallrev och de djur som där bor. Vi lär oss hur forskare tar fram nya metoder för att skydda och hjälpa Korallrevens Värld överleva nu när havstemperaturen stiger.Under vår resa upptäcker vi hur koraller lever, andas samt hur de förökar sig. KorallDive into a tropical ocean and see thousands of colorful fish flutter by. Travel the globe to explore coral reefs teeming with life and learn how scientists are racing to develop sustainable solutions to protect these vitally important ecosystems for the future. Along the way, discover how corals live, breathe, and reproduce, supporting a quarter of all marine life on Earth and providing critical

Högenergiastrofysik spelar en nyckelroll för vår förståelse av Universum. Den mest energirika strålningen avslöjar heta och våldsamma fenomen. Vi undersöker het gas i galaxhopar, som är de största och tyngsta objekten i Universum. Vi undersöker också het gas som samlas i skivor omkring supermassiva svarta hål i galaxers centra.Men högenergiastrofysik ger oss också viktig information om vår egen gaHigh Energy Astrophysics plays a key role in understanding the universe. These radiations reveal the processes in the hot and violent universe. High Energy Astrophysics probes hot gas in clusters of galaxies, which are the most massive objects in the universe. It also probes hot gas accreting around supermassive black holes in the centers of galaxies.Finally, high energy radiation provides importa

Beundran för Maos Kina och inte minst för kulturrevolutionen betydde mycket för vänsteruppsvinget under 1960-talets senare hälft. Den växande konflikten mellan maoismen och sovjetkommunismen kom i hög grad att influera den svenska vänsterns utveckling och till sist sönderfall i olika fraktioner. Mao i Sverige följer den svenska maoismens utveckling steg för steg. Förutom att gå kronologiskt fram l
