Purpose - The dimple is adopted into a pin fin wedge duct which is widely used in modern gas turbine vane cooling structure trailing edge region. The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of dimple depth and duct converging angle on the endwall heat transfer and friction factor in this pin fin wedge duct. Design/methodology/approach - The study is carried out by using the numerical simulat

This paper proposes a discrete-time hazard regression approach based on the relation between hazard rate models and excess over threshold models, which are frequently encountered in extreme value modelling. The proposed duration model employs a flexible link function and incorporates the grouped-duration analogue of the well-known Cox proportional hazards model and the proportional odds model as s

This dissertation deals with the effects of nuclear structure on the α-decay properties, and on the fission-yielddistributions from the decay of heavy nuclei. The nuclear-structure and decay properties of superheavynuclei is one of the central topics for investigation. α decay is treated in a microscopic approach employingSkyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov wave functions to describe the formation of aThis dissertation deals with the effects of nuclear structure on the α-decay properties, and on the fission-yielddistributions from the decay of heavy nuclei.

Denna rapport handlar om den regionala ekonomiska strukturomvandling som ägt rum i Västra Götaland och Skåne sedan 1990-talet, och om den fortsatta automatiseringens framtida regionala avtryck på svenska lokala arbetsmarknader. Rapporten beskriver och gör en sammanfattning av den debatt som på senare år varit intensiv om automatiseringens framtida effekter på arbetsmarknaden. Med utgångspunkt i de

De regionala klyftorna i Sverige har ökat sedan 1980-talet. Den här utvecklingen innebär politiska utmaningar. Stora regionala ojämlikheter hotar sammanhållningen i samhället och kan minska legitimiteten i det kommunala omfördelningssystemet. Skriften sätter in de senaste 30 årens ökande regionala skillnader i ett historiskt perspektiv. För detta ändamål presenteras nya dataserier på BNP per capit

How can we shape our urban development towards sustainable and prosperous futures? This course explores sustainable cities as engines for greening the economy in Europe and around the world. We place cities in the context of sustainable urban transformation and climate change. We connect the key trends of urbanization, decarbonisation and sustainability. We examine how visions, experiments and inn

Studies have shown that all Swedish municipalities are involved in cooperation with other municipalities, and most frequent in soft forms like agreements. Often each municipality have full control of its activities and then join forces with others on the margin. However, in this chapter it is showed that this situation is undergoing a change. Municipalities facing new a new landscape are looking f

The substitution kinetics of Me2PhP in cis-Pt(SiMePh2)2(PMe2Ph)2 (1) by the chelating ligand bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane has been followed at 25.0 °C in dichloromethane by stopped-flow spectrophotometry. Addition of the leaving ligand causes mass-law retardation compatible with a dissociative process via a three-coordinate transition state or intermediate. Exchange of Me2PhP in 1 has been studied

Markis Claes Lagergren är en av den nyare svenska katolska kyrkohistoriens kanske märkligaste konvertiter. Han har i memoarverket "Mitt livs minnen" från 1920-talet skildrat sin konversion och sitt liv fram till 35-årsåldern, alltså perioden 1853 till 1887. Memoarerna bygger på hans dagboksanteckningar, vilka för den följande perioden utgivits i urval och som i original finns i hans samling på Nor

Physical cognition involves a host of cognitive abilities that enable understanding and manipulation of the physical world. Corvids, the bird family that includes crows, ravens and jays, are renowned for their cognitive abilities, but still little is known about their folk physics. This thesis explores the origins of physical cognition in corvids by investigating its mechanisms, development,fitnes

Social learning is essential for human evolution. To achieve such learning, cultural processes which trigger the development of active teaching and intergenerational transmission and accumulation of knowledge are needed. The understanding of how such systems and processes were developed over a long time is essential for our understanding of human evolution. The identification of children’s learnin

This talk describes the work done in calculating leading logarithms in massive effective field theories. We discuss shortly leading logarithms in renormalizable theories and how they can be calculated using only one-loop calculations in effective field theories. The remainder of the talk discusses masses, decay constants, condensates and anomalous processes in mesonic effective field theories like
