Much of our built environment is constructed to accommodate ‘normate’ (Garland-Thomson 1996; Hamraie 2017) bodies. This fact may remain invisible to normate users of public space, much as the ordering of human interaction through categorisation is often invisible (Bowker & Star 1999).

The starting point of this dissertation is the increasing number of Swedish consumers who use the Internet for shopping. Convenience is said to be an important ground for this choice. However, there are few studies that attempt to understand the true meaning of convenience. This study sets out to understand what convenience entails for Internet shoppers, what characterizes a convenient Internet sh

SSAB Tunnplåt AB manufactures high strength steel to e.g. beams to trailers, containers, trucks and cars. In high strength steel designs the ratio width to thickness is also high and therefore the risk for local buckling is high. When buckling occurs the stress will re-distribute and large deformation will occur. It is therefore important to take buckling into consideration when dimensioning high

Aim: Research is lacking in terms of reading decoding skills among clinical samples of Swedish-speaking children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). Method: The present cross-sectional study included a sample of 61 children (8-12 years) with DLD attending school language units, years 1 to 5. Our purpose was to study reading decoding skills and predictors for decoding, such as a phonologica

One of the challenges in wooden constructions is to be able to achieve a good acoustic insulation especially in the low frequency range. The prediction of acoustic performance of wooden buildings before erection becomes important and reliable predictive tools are in great need. To that end, the first question that arises is how to accurately model the excitation source which generates the structur

BALTHAZAR BERLING - LE FAIT DU CORPS (BARTHÉLÉMY) LOUI KUHLAU - THE MUNDANE EGG In language you divide, categorize and combine. As words enters your language they create parameters in a spectrum, in which you previously didn’t make any distinctions. As you come into being without a language, the first period of life is lived in a continuous spectrum. A world where everything is one. Your senses co

In a linguistic description there is normally a more or less conspicious lack of balance between the space a phenomenon requires to be fully described and its frequence in actual language usage, here called a lack of iconicity. The article investigates to what degree some Danish and Swedish dictionaries are iconical in this sense, i.e. whether the space of a word in the dictionary corresponds with

Popular Abstract in English Nowadays, cutting-edge technologies require devices to be small, ultrafast, and operational in a wide range of regimes. To fulfill these requirements we need to go beyond the traditional materials, i.e. to solids with novel, unconventional and tailorable properties. Great progress in this direction is conjectured to stem from materials in which the effect of inter-partiCutting-edge technology needs small, ultrafast devices, operational in a wide range of regimes. This calls for solids with novel, unconventional and tailorable properties. Great progress is expected from materials in which electron-electron and electron-phonon correlations strongly affect the dynamics ( i.e. "unforeseen" useful properties are expected to be most likely found in systems with comple

An investigation combining IR spectroscopy, potentiometric titrations, and adsorption experiments was carried out to study pyromellitate (1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylate) sorption at the goethite (alpha-FeOOH)/ water interface. The IR spectra show evidence of outer-sphere complexation throughout the pH range from 3 to 9. Below pH 6 additional IR spectroscopic features appear, which are tentatively

Optimization of the photoemission blade type XBPM mostly performed to increase its resolution by increasing the readout signal current and by optimizing blades geometry. This requires tailoring of the XBPM for a particular undulator, making almost every XBPM unique at the Synchrotron Radiation facility. In many cases the calibration coefficient is gap dependent. To overcome those drawbacks an alte

Background: In most clubfoot studies, the outcome instruments used are designed to evaluate classification or long-term cross-sectional results. Variables deal mainly with factors on body function/structure level. Wide scorings intervals and total sum scores increase the risk that important changes and information are not detected. Studies of the reliability, validity and responsiveness of these i

A modification to our previous simulation of breast anatomy is proposed to improve the quality of simulated x-ray projections images. The image quality is affected by the voxel size of the simulation. Large voxels can cause notable spatial quantization artifacts; small voxels extend the generation time and increase the memory requirements. An improvement in image quality is achievable without redu

Globalization has resulted in more segments and product configurations to meet the needs of various customers in different markets. For manufacturers to keep up, the operations footprint has become more global to source from the most appropriate suppliers but also have manufacturing sites in close proximity to the main local markets. The relationship between the products offered, in particular the

Objective: To investigate how subjective perceptions of everyday occupations, activity level, day centre attendance, social interaction, self-mastery and clinical factors were related to how unemployed people with psychiatric disabilities (PD) envision a future worker role, also controlling for socio-demographic variables. Participants: 175 people with PD; 93 attended a day centre and 82 did not.

Abstract in Undetermined The integrated approach of consumers to new product development has its serious challenges that have been recognized by several researchers, but has not been sufficiently investigated. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to propose a conceptual framework for the analysis of how companies involve users in the innovation efforts through Web 2.0. The case study method w

This paper aims to enhance the understanding of the extent to which non-governmental organisations (NGOs) are able to shape the civil regulation of transnational corporations (TNCs), in addition to civil regulations’ potential to compensate for failed state-regulations. For this purpose, the paper examines the case of Shell’s civil regulation in Nigeria, where the oil-industry is effectively left

Triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) is a proficient catalyst of the reversible isomerization of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) to d-glyceraldehyde phosphate (GAP), via general base catalysis by E165. Historically, this enzyme has been an extremely important model system for understanding the fundamentals of biological catalysis. TIM is activated through an energetically demanding conformational cha
