An LU in-house style for English has developed over the years. To the extent possible it is desirable that communication to the outside world is as cohesive as possible and to this end the following LU style is recommended. Language varietyThe LU Language policy stipulates British English. This is the recommended variety unless special circumstances call for a deviation.Some examples:Verb endings:

A production system is often complex, involving several production steps with a material flow entering and exiting at different stages throughout the value stream. This article aims to present a method giving the aggregated cost of a product in a production system, were material and components entering the value stream carrying their own capital and handling costs. The article describes an empiric
ISO 22400 has defined a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to evaluate the performance of manufacturing operation. Despite it's conceived to be industry-neutral, the defined KPIs seem not to be perfectly suitable for process industry. Based on a survey performed in a process industrial company, this paper highlights the specific process industry's needs for evaluating the operational perform
This thesis is concerned with the geometrical parts of computer vision, or more precisely, with the three-dimensional geometry. The overall aim is to extract geometric information from a set of images. Most methods for estimating the geometry of multiple views rely on the existence of robust solvers for a set of basic problems. Such a basic problem can be estimating the relative orientation of two
We observe that, while predicting returns remain difficult and uncertain, volatility exhibit more persistence and predictability due to well-known patterns such as volatility clustering (Mandelbrot, 1967). We test whether short-horizon volatility forecasts can be used to time leverage in a passive index strategy so as to mitigate the growth penalty from volatility drag in leveraged exchange-traded
Fast phenomena occurring after laser excitation were studied using time-resolved X-ray diffraction (TXRD). In most experiments, a femtosecond laser pulse was used to excite the sample, and X-rays were used as a probe. The X-ray diffraction technique was used to study bulk semiconductor samples, molten liquids, ferro-electric domain switching in potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP), and strain prop
A study concerning closure relations pertinent to the design of sorption equipment of absorption heat pumps has been undertaken. Specifically, thermosiphon and vertical falling film arrangements were studied. For the thermosiphon, experimental data on the void fraction, the friction and orifice pressure drops, and the heat transfer coefficient at sub-atmospheric pressures were obtained for vapori
Increased expression of the cell cycle regulatory protein cyclin A1 has previously been detected in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and targeted overexpression of cyclin A1 in a transgenic mouse model initiated AML. The aim of this thesis was to further study the expression and regulation of cyclin A1 in hematopoietic cells. We started with evaluating the subcellular localization of cyc
This book presents an exhaustive and systematic investigation of six representatives of three important periods of New Testament interpretation: Martin Luther, John Calvin, Brooke Foss Westcott, Heinrich Julius Holtzmann, Rudolf Bultmann and Raymond E. Brown. They serve as dialogue partners in an investigation of the notion of God in the Fourth Gospel, a topic that has been called “the neglected f
The overall aim of this study is to describe a number of different uses of the French "seul" and "seulement", and to account for the observed differences within a generative framework. After an introductory chapter, chapters two and three present a survey of earlier studies. The fourth chapter concerns an empirical study of authentic occurrences of "seul" and seulement", drawn from the press. The
The life cycle of electronic products is associated with significant environmental impacts. Compared to many other products, the production of electronics and in particular semiconductors is resource intensive and generates a number of highly toxic waste streams in manufacturing and post-consumer stages of product life cycle. Electronics manufacturing industry has been successful in reducing envir
