While traditionally treated separately, the research disciplines dealing with electromagnetic fields respectively continuum mechanics are naturally connected. Not only are the basic equations formulated in a similar way, but the presence of electromagnetic fields affect the balance equations of continuum mechanics and likewise, the presence of material continua affect the electromagnetic fields

In a previous paper, we showed how classical ideas for dynamicprogramming in discrete networks can be adapted to hybrid systems. The approach is based on discretization of the continuous Bellman inequality which gives a lower bound on the optimal cost. The lower bound is maximized by linear programming to get an approximation of the optimal solution.In this paper, we apply ideas from infinite-dime

Popular Abstract in Swedish Nematod-fångande svampar är en grupp av filamentösa svampar som lever i jorden. De kan som deras namn antyder fånga och infektera nematoder. Varför är det då viktigt att studera dessa svampar? Svaret är just nematoder. Nematoder, även kända som rundmaskar, kan infektera både människor, djur och växter. Vi i Europa är relativt förskonade mot dessa infektioner om man jämfNematode-trapping fungi are soil-living organisms with the unique ability to capture and infect free-living nematodes. The interest in studying these fungi arises from their potential use as biological control agents for plant- and animal-parasitic nematodes. To enter the parasitic stage, nematode-trapping fungi develop different kinds of trapping structures. In order to understand more about the

Ideological study of Ingmar Bergman's television series Scenes from a Marriage.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kväveoxid (NO) är en viktig fysiologisk och patologisk mediator och dess relaxerande effekt på blodkärl upptäcktes i slutet av 1980-talet. Idag vet man att NO ingår i flera olika fysiologiska funktioner såsom blodtrycksreglering, nervcellssignalering och immunförsvar. NO bildas med hjälp av enzymet käveoxidsyntas (NOS). Det finns tre olika former av NOS med olika funktiInducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression is associated with various pathophysiological conditions in the lower urinary tract. The aims of this thesis have been to investigate the regulation of iNOS in bladder smooth muscle cells and the consequences on neuromuscular regulation, cell growth and differentiation. Primary cultures of rat bladder smooth muscle cells (BSMC) expressed iNOS mRNA

Abstract in Spanish Estudio metafísico sobre los modelos epistemológicos de la filosofía de la Vida.

A model for simulations of the dynamical behavior of the Large Earth-based Solar Telescope (LEST) is described. The model includes the various subsystems of the telescope optics and mechanics, as well as its live optics system. Also, various disturbances, including wind gusts and atmospheric turbulence, are included. The simulation results indicate the fundamental importance of the live optics sys

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens syfte var att utveckla en checklista för bedömning av utemiljön i flerfamiljs bostadsområden. Fem experter inom arkitektur, landskapsarkitektur och stadsplanering medverkade i den första utvärderingen som omfattade sex bostadsområden i Lund. Utfallet validerades genom jämförelse med de boendes egna värderingar. Denna omfattade mer än 400 personer och analyThe primary goal of this thesis was to develop an Expert checklist for assessing and de-veloping outdoor residential environments. The checklist was utilized by 5 experts in the fields of architecture, landscape architecture, and urban planning who were all fa-miliar with the concept of architectural psychology. The checklist was validated against a Post-occupancy evaluations form (POE) that was d

We give an introduction to modern electron microscopy techniques, applied to semiconductor structures. We concentrate on the analytical capabilities of high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and luminescence-based analysis, cathodoluminescence, in the scanning electron microscope. For the TEM, we will demonstrate a number of techniques and detection schemes, such as energy dispersi

En bristande förståelse för olika förståelsehorisonter för Tegnérs tal respektive dikt har bidragit både till att missförstå Tegnérs uppfattning av sin kyrkliga gärning och kyrkfolkets uppfattning av honom. Svaret på frågan: Hördes ljuset? blir därför: Särskilt när det lyste genom Bibelns bildspråk, och när hans diktning hördes, i än högre grad: inför döden, och, mest frekvent: när det lyste till

The development of corner folds in liquid board packages is sometimes observed in the forming section during package forming. In this work the problem is approached by the use of FE simulations. It is concluded that corner folds can be triggered in the simulations for a specific set of material properties and forming machine parameters.
