Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling undersöker dagvatten som en resurs i svensk urban miljö. Fokus har varit öppna dagvattensystem för flödeskontroll och uppsamlingssystem för regnvatten. För att analysera realiserandet av öppna dagvattensystem, presenteras två fallstudier; Augustenborg i Malmö och Bäckaslöv våtmark i Växjö. De kvarhållande och fördröjande effekterna som uppnås med gröna This thesis investigates the beneficial use of stormwater in Swedish urban environments. The focus has been on open stormwater systems for source control, as well as rainwater collection systems. To analyse the implementation of open stormwater systems, two case studies are presented: Augustenborg in Malmö and Bäckaslöv wetland in Växjö. The retention and detention effects of green-roofs have been

sensitive detection of pesticides is of utmost importance in environment pesticides in agricultural and environmental samples wherein antibodies are employed against the target molecules. Accurate diagnosis depends on the affinity and specificity of the antibody preparation used, and high affinity antibodies are essential for the detection of very small amounts of pesticides. Enzyme linked immuno

Popular Abstract in Swedish Programvara spelar en allt viktigare roll i industriella produkter. Bilar, flygplan, telefoner, hemelektronik, kärnkraftverk m.m. innehåller alla programvara. När man utvecklar programvara blir det ofta fel i produkterna, fel som kan vara mycket allvarliga för funktion och säkerhet. Ett första steg i att minska dessa fel är att uppskatta hur många fel som finns i produkIn software engineering, the quality of software and in particular the software reliability has to be controlled and improved. Hence there is a need for measuring and controlling the number and appearance of software faults and failures. This thesis presents models for estimation of residual faults after inspections and a model for usage specifications which enables estimation of operational failu

A concentrating photovoltaic wall element, including Cu(In, Ga)Se-2-based modules, aluminum reflectors, and an insulation for building integration, has been developed and evaluated. The geometric concentration ratio of the system is about 3 x. However, the measured maximum electric power from the modules is only 1.9 times that of identical vertical modules without reflectors, due to optical losses

The enzymatic and bioelectrocatalytic activity of tyrosinase from mushrooms was studied in a system of reversed micelles formed by Aerosol OT (AOT) in hexane. The optimal catechol oxidising activity of tyrosinase incorporated in reversed micelles was found at a hydration degree of w(0) = 25. The catalytic activity was comparable with tyrosinase activity in aqueous media. When immobilized at an Au

Let X = (X(t) : t greater than or equal to 0) be a Levy process. In simulation, one often wants to know at what size it is possible to truncate the small jumps while retaining enough accuracy. A useful tool here is the Edgeworth expansion. We provide a third order expansion together with a uniform error bound, assuming third Levy moment is 0. We next discuss approximating X in the finite variation

BACKGROUND: Immunohistochemical staining for tumor-associated proteins is widely used for the identification of novel prognostic markers. Recently, a tissue-conserving, high-throughput technique, tissue microarray, has been introduced. This technique uses 0.6-mm tissue core biopsy specimens, 500 to 1000 of which are brought into a new paraffin array block, which can be sectioned up to 100 times. M

Thiol (SH) groups play a remarkable role in the cell with their redox state affecting the activity and structure of many enzymes, receptors and transcription factors. In the present work, carbon paste electrodes modified with sulfhydryl oxidase (SOX) were prepared. The proposed biosensor was based on the monitoring of the produced peroxide concentration that correlates with the concentration of re

Optimal sampling design with nonparametric population modeling offers the opportunity to determine pharma-cokinetic parameters for patients in whom blood sampling is restricted. This approach was compared to a standard individualized modeling method for meropenem pharmacokinetics in febrile neutropenic patients. The population modeling program, nonparametric approach of expectation maximization (N

Gaze coordinates are recorded from naive subjects watching a number of video clips. These are used to derive volumes of interest (VOIs) representing the mutual visual interest of the tested subjects. Video frames are then processed in variable resolution contingent on the VOI shapes to produce off-line foveated video. We report on bit rate savings between 30 and 54% due to off-line foveation proir

Here, we review the use of actin-based motors, (myosins; e.g., the molecular motor of muscle) in. nanotechnology. The review starts from the viewpoints of the molecular motors as being important devices responsible of cargo transportation in the cell and end in discussions about their employment in nanotechnological applications. First, we describe basic biophysics of the myosin motors with focus
