This paper forms part of a broader study on the design optimization of a high speed switched reluctance motor for automotive traction applications. Due to the high speed operation and resulting high electrical frequency, it is of extreme importance that the different loss components of this motor are accurately calculated. In this study, several effects are observed that influence the accurate mea
Publikationen sammanställer kunskap relevant för att utveckla och praktisera ledarskap i aktörsgemensamma sammanhang. Innehållet täcker centrala begrepp och beskriver olika organisatoriska miljöer som blir aktuella i samband med kriser och totalförsvar.
Background The World Health Organisation (WHO) 2013 diagnostic criteria for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has been criticised due to the limited evidence of benefits on pregnancy outcomes in different populations when switching from previously higher glycemic thresholds to the lower WHO-2013 diagnostic criteria. The aim of this study was to determine whether the switch from previous Swedish
Background: Indoor lighting, exposure to outdoor daylight, physical activity and sleep interact to influence functioning, mood and cicadian rhythm. Older adults (≥ 65 years), who often spend more time at home, are less physically active and experience more sleep problems, could benefit from strategies to support behavioural change and self-managed modifications in the home. The study’s primary objBackgroundIndoor lighting, exposure to outdoor daylight, physical activity and sleep interact to influence functioning, mood and cicadian rhythm.

Anticancer drugs can be delivered more efficiently to tumor sites with fewer side effects by utilizing magnetic nanoparticles. In this research detailed examinations of the effect of polyethylene glycol (PEG) on microstructure, size distribution, morphology, magnetic performance and coating of cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (CFO) were conducted. CFO nanoparticles were functionalized by PEG under dif
Background: Patients with generalized social anxiety disorder (SAD) avoid various social situations and can be reluctant to engage in in vivo exposure therapy. Highly personalized practising can be required before patients are ready to perform in vivo exposure. Virtual reality-based therapy could be beneficial for this group.Aims: To assess the feasibility and potential effect of virtual reality-b
We have employed a new approach to quantify the amount fraction of nitrous oxide in a synthetic air matrix gas used to prepare high-accuracy reference materials of the same component. Until now, this was the largest contributor to the measurement uncertainty of nitrous oxide in air reference materials at atmospheric amount fractions (∼330 nmol mol-1), as identified in a recent international compar
Popular Abstract in Swedish Transplantation av nervvävnad till hjärnan är inte en ny idé. Redan 1890, publiserade Thompson de första försöken att transplantera vuxen hjärnvävnad till det vuxna centrala nervsystemet och han rapporterade att vävnaden överlevde i sju veckor "without wholly losing its identity". Trots detta var det först under 1970-talet som metoderna för intracerebral nervcellstranspIntracerebral neuronal transplantation have been shown to ameliorate symptoms of brain dysfunction in both animals models and Parkinson's disease, although problems still remain. The newly introduced technique of ex vivo gene transfer could serve as an alternative approach, possible avoiding some of the draw-backs of the embryonal tissue used in neuronal grafting. We have investigated the feasibli
Popular Abstract in Swedish Experimentella data från kollisioner mellan guldjoner vid hög energi har analyserat inom ramen för experimentet PHENIX, som finns vid en av kollisionspunkterna vid ''the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider'' på ''Brookhaven National Laboratory'', New York (USA). Kollisioner med tunga joner, så som guld, används i försök till att återskapa de förhållanden som fanns i univerThe properties of the basic building blocks of nuclear matter, the quarks, and their interactions are not known in detail, largely because observations are complicated by the confinement of quarks in composite particles. New insights can be gained from the study of nuclear matter in a deconfined phase, like the form of matter that the Universe consited of early in its evolution according to the Bi
Manufacturing is an industry in which the effects of globalization are obvious. Manufacturing costs are a key factor in this respect and affect, for example, decisions about offshoring, i.e., moving production abroad. If Sweden and other Western countries are to maintain large manufacturing sectors, they must be competitive, making cost one of the most critical parameters. The work presented here
Using simple waves and six-vector formalism, the propagation of electromagnetic waves in nonlinear, bianisotropic, nondispersive, homogeneous media is analyzed. The Maxwell equations are formulated as an eigenvalue problem, whose solutions are equivalent to the characteristic directions of the wave front. Oblique incidence of plane waves in vacuum on a half space of nonlinear material is solved, g
