In this article, we describe a collective biography that we convened in order to revisit the site of the radical theoretical break with the liberal humanist individual marked by the poststructuralist work of Henriques and colleagues and the feminist poststructuralist work of Weedon. These writers suggest that the new subject of poststructuralist theory will be more open to the changes desired by f

This dissertation argues that the English Protestant interpretations between 1845 and 1864 of John Henry Newman’s secession were related to the notions which formed part of the British national identity. It demonstrates how various writers modelled their interpretations of Newman’s secession on the beliefs of British anti-Catholicism. By understanding the British national identity as a common cult

A kinematic hardening model applicable to finite strains is presented. The kinematic hardening concept is based on the residual stresses that evolve due to different obstacles that are present in a polycrystalline material, such as grain boundaries, cross slips, etc. Since these residual stresses are a manifestation of the distortion of the crystal lattice a corresponding deformation gradient is i

Heavy smoke from forest fires in the Amazon was observed to reduce cloud droplet size and so delay the onset of precipitation from 1.5 kilometers above cloud base in pristine clouds to more than 5 kilometers in polluted clouds and more than 7 kilometers in pyro-clouds. Suppression of low-level rainout and aerosol washout allows transport of water and smoke to upper levels, where the clouds appear

Popular Abstract in Swedish På Internet initieras en mängd tjänster på många områden. Det är tjänster som på flera sätt ingår i vardagslivet. I avhandlingen undersöks en av dessa tjänster och sätthur den används. Avhandlingen är en studie av e-handel av livsmedel i Sverige i perioden 1998-2003. Det är en period då e-handel bedrivs av de flesta stora aktörer på den svenska livsmedelsmarknaden men äFrom a social constructivist point of view this thesis investigates how e-commerce of grocery develops in the period 1998-2003. The empirical research is done in Sweden. Most Swedish grocery concerns that have had e-commerce and have been forced to shut down as a result of lack of demand. The starting point for this thesis is that technological development is an ongoing process where different act

When ferrochromium is produced at Vargon Alloys AB (Vargon, Sweden), an offgas dust is generated as a byproduct. A leachate that contains hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) is formed when rainwater percolates through the dust deposit. In this study, Cr6+ in the leachate was reduced to trivalent chromium (Cr3+) by biological treatment in a biofilm process operated under anaerobic conditions. The reactor vo

Solitary bees and bumblebees have declined substantially throughout western Europe during the last 100 years. Many species are important pollinators and are associated with particular plant species and habitats. In this study we report the highest number of bee species found at one locality in Sweden (Table 2). In total 87 species of wild bees (74 species of solitary bees and 13 species of bumble

The influence of electron doping, via deposition of small amounts of Cs, on the electronic structure of has been studied by high-resolution photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) and x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), utilizing synchrotron radiation. The changes in the electronic structure were monitored by PES of the valence band and of the O 1s, Bi 4f, Bi 5d, Ca 2p and Sr 3d core levels, and by XAS

Toluidine Blue O (TBO) was covalently bound on silica gel and mixed with graphite powder and paraffin oil to produce modified carbon paste electrodes. The formal potential (E°′) of the covalently bound TBO was found to be −100 mV versus Ag|AgCl (KCl sat.) at pH 7.0 and the E°′ varied less than anticipated for a 2-electron–proton type mediator with pH. The bound TBO was found to act as an efficient

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to study how a replanted hand regained its cortical territory parallel to recovery. The cortical response to sensory stimulation shifts from an ipsilateral to a bilateral pattern, and then to a predominantly contralateral activation. The cortical response to motor stimulation was normal from the first investigation.

Estimation of NMR spectral parameters, using e.g. maximum likelihood methods, is commonly based on the assumption of white complex Gaussian noise in the signal obtained by quadrature detection. Here we present a statistical analysis with the purpose of discussing and testing the validity of this fundamental assumption. Theoretical expressions are derived for the correlation structure of the noise

This dissertation is about social interaction between Swedish district nurses and patients when they meet to perform such routine things as to measure blood pressures or give injections. Conversation analytic methodology is used to explicate interactional structures and to understand how they come about; (i) how tests and treatments are achieved; (ii) how concerns are introduced; (iii) how test re

The secosteroid hormone active vitamin D [1,25(OH)(2)D-3] is a key player in the regulation of calcium homeostasis and bone mineralization. In addition, it has antiproliferative and prodifferentiating effects on various cells in vitro and in vivo. The action of 1,25(OH)(2)D-3 is mediated through the vitamin D receptor (VDR), which belongs to the superfamily of steroid/thyroid hormone nuclear recep

In this paper we present an investigation of the dielectric response of H2O(1) and D2O(1) as a function of temperature from a supercooled state to near the boiling point. The data are obtained using THz-time domain spectroscopy, and covers the frequency range from 0 1-2 THz corresponding to 3 to 66 cm(-1). Before presenting the experimental results, we give a short introduction to some of the prop
