In 2001 the Bhutanese State took an important step in its process of state formation, as the country embarked on a journey that would turn it into a constitutional monarchy in 2008. This process is typically described by academics and the international media as one in which the King gave the constitution as a ‘gift’ to the people. However, there are some puzzling issues connected to this represent
In-cylinder crank-angle resolved imaging of fuel and OH was obtained using planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) in a Homogenous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine. Investigations were carried out to ascertain the extent to which the combustion process in an HCCI engine is affected by the charge homogeneity. In the experiments, the heterogeneity of the charge was varied and the effect on
In today’s highly competitive market place it is of great importance for companies to deliver reliable products while decreasing the development time and costs. The time to market is a driving force for many companies, and throughout the engineering design process as well as the manufacturing process, the focus is on finding timesaving actions. However, the search for timesaving actions will most
Verksamheten är inriktad mot bl a följande områden. Analys: Ordinära och partiella differentialekvationer, mikrolokal analys, matematiska problem i fysiken, komplex analys, potentialteori, funktionalanalys, interpolationsteori, olineära dynamiska system, gaugeteori, konvexitetsteori, approximationsteori. Algebra: Liealgebra, konform fältteori, ringteori, talteori, datoralgebra. Geometri: Diff
The sequence diversity of protein families is a result of the biophysical selection pressures that shaped their evolutionary history. Among the dominant pressures is selection for protein thermostability, which in itself is an attractive target in protein engineering because of its importance for various biopharmaceutical properties, the performance of industrial enzymes, and the ability to design
Avdelningen för program och studentstöd ansvarar för ledningsstöd till de fyra programnämnderna samt studievägledning och övrigt stöd för studenter.This division provides administrative support to the four Programme Boards and programme leadership, along with study counselling and other student support.
Vid avdelningen bedrivs forskning med produkter, processer och människan i fokus. Fysikaliska, kemiska och processtekniska aspekter vid industriell livsmedelsproduktion är en del av detta. Vidare bedrivs forskning kring värme- och masstransport i fasta livsmedel, membranteknik och värme-, mass- och impulstransport i flytande livsmedel, likaså forskning kring strukturförändringar och kvalitetsegensThe division conducts research with a focus on products, processes and people. Physical, chemical and process engineering aspects of industrial food production are part of this. Furthermore, research is conducted on heat and mass transport in solid foods, membrane technology and heat and mass transport in liquid foods, as well as research on structural changes and quality properties in the chain f
The aim is to explore how young people, after having lived on the streets, experience the reintegration process of returning to their local community. Individual interviews were conducted with young males having experience of reintegration after having lived on the streets. The results show a step-wise process initially signified by ambivalence, moving back and forth and encountering setbacks. The
At a time when natural petroleum resources are on the verge of depletion, and concern about climate change is increasing, the potential of lignocellulosic material for the production of bioethanol is well recognized. Ethanol can be produced from biomass through enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation. However, to achieve high yields and high ethanol concentration, pretreatment of the cellulosic biom
Actin dynamics in vascular smooth muscle is known to regulate contractile differentiation and may play a role in the pathogenesis of vascular disease. However, the list of genes regulated by actin polymerization in smooth muscle remains incomprehensive. Thus, the objective of this study was to identify actin-regulated genes in smooth muscle and to demonstrate the role of these genes in the regulat
New palladium and nickel complexes based on unsymmetric PCN pincer ligands have been synthesized and fully characterized using different techniques. The substituents on the nitrogen side arm of the ligand have great influence on the cyclometallation and the reactivity of the new complexes particularly in case of nickel. The less sterically hindered PCNMe ligand enabled formation of the trivalent n
Energi och ByggnadsDesign behandlar i huvudsak energianvändning, passivt och aktivt solutnyttjande, dagsljus och solskydd i byggnader och byggnadsintegrering av solvärme- och solelsystem. Brukarnas inverkan och krav på bl a termisk och visuell komfort ingår som en viktig del.
Avdelningen för musikvetenskap och intermediala studier är en del av Institutionen för kulturvetenskaper. Forskningen som bedrivs inom ämnet musikvetenskap är inriktad på musikens historia, kultur, produktion och estetik under 1900- och 2000-talen. Forskningen inom området intermediala studier är mång- och tvärvetenskaplig till sin karaktär och fokuserar på kulturella fenomen som hur ord, bilder oThe Division of Musicology and Intermedia Studies is part of the Department of Arts and Cultural Sciences. The research conducted within the subject of Musicology is focused on the history, culture, production and aesthetics of music in the 20th and 21st centuries. The research in the area of Intermedia Studies is multi and interdisciplinary in nature and focuses on cultural phenomena such as how
Increasing soft error rates in recent semiconductor technologies enforce the usage of fault tolerance. While fault tolerance enables correct operation in the presence of soft errors, it usually introduces a time overhead. The time overhead is particularly important for a group of computer systems referred to as real-time systems (RTSs) where correct operation is defined as producing the correct re
