Background: Teachers undertaking scholarly inquiry into teaching and learning can improve education. Many universities wish to promote such undertakings e.g. with teaching awards and academies.Summary of work: The aim of this study is to better understand circumstances where teachers develop towards a Scholarship of teaching and learning, SoTL, in a research-intensive faculty of medicine and healt

In this study an alternative integration scheme for elasto-plasticity based on a Diagonal Implicit Runge-Kutta (DIRK) scheme originally proposed by Ellsiepen (1999) is investigated. In contrast to clasical approaches, the DIRK scheme is applied to the balance of momentum as well as the constitutive evolution equations. The presented numerical algorithm is applied to an elastoplastic bounadry value

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den rykande startpistolen eller Konsten att ta tid på en flygande elektron Flygande elektroner kan berätta mycket om hur världen sitter ihop. Elektroner som lämnar ytan av något material avslöjar både vilka atomer som finns i materialet och hur de kemiska bindingarna ser ut. Allt detta är nödvändigt att förstå när man vill utveckla nya material – till exempel för kretTime-of-flight (TOF) techniques for energy analysis have been common in electron spectroscopy for many decades. TOF-based electron spectrometers benefit from higher transmission and information rate compared to their main competitor: the hemispherical analyser; the drawback being their lower energy resolution. However, the advent of angle-resolved TOF spectrometers for electron energy analysis cha

This paper addresses the question of how to model individual behavior in the face of changes in the set of rules that govern the social welfare system in Sweden. To this end, the Swedish sickness insurance provides an excellent study object, since the system has often been changed during the past decade. The question of employee compensation for sick leave is one the more widely discussed aspects

The local density theory is developed by Hohenberg, Kohn and Sham is extended to the spin polarized case. A spin dependent one- electron potential pertinent to ground state properties is obtained from calculations of the total energy per electron made with a `bubble' (or random phase) type of dielectric function. The potential is found to be well represented by an analytic expression corresponding

Due to political conflicts, the northern part of Cyprus is being under economical crisis. This is employed by environmental problems such as non-organised improvement of residential areas and their effects on habitat. Especially, three main cities where 75 percent of population is crowded, is seriously under the threat of sewerage problems. In this study the comparisons for available sewerage syst

Corrosion is the main factor limiting the lifetime of metallic materials, and a fundamental understanding of the governing mechanism and surface processes is difficult to achieve since the thin oxide films at the metal–liquid interface governing passivity are notoriously challenging to study. In this work, a combination of synchrotron-based techniques and electrochemical methods is used to investi
