Unfired clay is an ancient building material that has been used for centuries, as a result a third of the human population lives in earth houses today. Earth as a building material was neglected during the industrial revolution in Sweden, which means that well developed standards and regulations for earthen material do not exist today. The lack of standards and regulations can cause problems and f
GFORCE-PD still going strong in 2016 MEETING REPORT OPEN GFORCE-PD still going strong in 2016 Malin Parmar1, Jun Takahashi2, Lorenz Studer3 and Roger A Barker4 In 2014, a new initiative was undertaken by groups working on plans for the transplantation of stem-cell-based derived dopaminergic neurons for treating Parkinson’s disease patients. This GForce-PD group held its annual meeting on 18–19 Apr

This master’s thesis is about digital history and digital documents, studying attitudes and practises concerning this in some non-profit organizations. The study centres on how creators of archives handle their digital presence and on what they think about their digital material as part of their future history. The study has two main theoretical starting points: one in document theory, centring
Ideas regarding women, womanhood, and femininity are and always have been a controversial as well as ever-changing and evolving subject, which has occupied the thoughts of a number of men and women throughout history and keeps doing so. The subject of this paper is to study some views on femininity, womanhood, and female strength and worth, in a certain time, place, and cultural context, as well a
Operators of complex systems (e.g. modern passenger Commercial Aircrafts) often take decisions in unique situations, which develop rapidly in everyday work. For most situations, they have detailed company policies and procedures at their disposal to help them deal with these events. But do these procedures and policies work exactly as written all the time? And does experience level and type of org
Previous studies have suggested a “cholesterol-lowering effect” of preclinical pancreatic cancer, suggesting lower total cholesterol as a potential diagnostic marker. Leveraging repeated measurements of total cholesterol, this study aims to examine the temporal association of total cholesterol and pancreatic cancer incidence. We conducted a nested case-control study based on a Korean National Heal
BACKGROUND: Partial nitritation-anammox (PNA) is a biological nitrogen removal process commonly used in wastewater treatment plants for the treatment of warm and nitrogen-rich sludge liquor from anaerobic digestion, often referred to as sidestream wastewater. In these systems, biofilms are frequently used to retain biomass with aerobic ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and anammox bacteria, which t
Title Systems, Stability and Power. The Discourse of Information in Organizing Knowledge. Abstract The aim of this Master's thesis is to inquire into the consequences of an unequal distribution of power between information discourses in the field of knowledge organisation. A deconstruction of Jennifer Rowley's and John Farrows introductory textbook Organizing Knowledge from 2000 is rela
Title: Development and continuity: A new institutional case study of a Danish public library in change Abstract: The purpose of this master's thesis is to discuss and analyse the relationship between the traditional core values belonging to the institution of the public library, and the development work that takes place at the institution. The thesis also investigates the relationships that i
Presence of lactic acid bacteria on a beer brewery The purpose of this thesis is to help a brewery solve a mayor problem regarding the quality of their product. The brewery has for a considerable amount of time had a problem with the presence of lactic acid bacteria in their product, which has caused it to acid long before the expiration date has passed. The root of the problem could be establishe
For construction in rock a thorough pre-investigation is important in order to avoid unforeseen conditions which may delay the work. It is crucial to remember the results from this investigation in the further work, and use the experience from the construction to update the geological prognosis and reduce the uncertainties. Different geophysical methods have proved valuable tools in such investiga
När betongplattrambroar modelleras med moderna linjära 3D FE-modeller kommer stora dragkrafter att uppstå i brons tvärriktning från temperatur- och krympningslasterna. Dessa tvångskrafter är då mycket större än vad som har beaktats i de äldre 2D modellerna. Detta leder till att den tvärgående armeringsmängden, som beräknas i 3D-modellerna, är mycket större än vad som har varit norm innan. Denna avWhen concrete slab frame bridges are designed with modern linear 3D FE-models large tensile restraint forces will arise in the transversal direction of the bridge from the temperature and shrinkage loads. These restraint forces are much larger than those that are accounted for in the older 2D models. This leads to that the amount of transversal reinforcement, calculated in the 3D FE-calculations,
Popular science summary Complex I, let me see your true color Every day of our lives our body performs many different tasks to let us survive, such as brain activity, muscle contractions or smaller tasks like cell- repair or -division. All those tasks require energy. The energy currency of our body is called ATP (adenosintriphosphate), a molecule that lets us perform many reactions in our body.
Long-term records of environmental history at decadal to millennial time-scales enable an assessment of ecosystem variability and responses to past anthropogenic disturbances and are fundamental for the development of environmental management strategies. This study examines the local variability of land-use history in the South Swedish Uplands over the last 200 years based on pollen records from t
For model-based quantitative reconstructions of past vegetation cover on the scale of landscapes, pollen productivity estimates (PPEs) are key input parameters. In this study, we employed a random sampling strategy to collect moss polsters at 20 sites in Changbai Mountain, northeastern China. A detailed vegetation survey within 1000-m radius around each sampling point was carried out and digitized
Papers from a conference in Lund, Sweden. The title of the conference was "What's new in the Neolithic". The book brings together the latest research on the Neolithic of northern Europe. In the study of the distant human past, certain events and periods have come to represent decisive passages from one human state to another. From a global perspective, the characteristic feature of the last ten t
Multi-electrode geoelectrical imaging has become very popular and is used for many different purposes. For some of these, the inclusion of IP data would be desirable as it would allow the interpreter to distinguish between, e.g. sand formations with saltwater infiltration and clay formations or help delineate landfills. However, present-day IP measuring techniques require the use of nonpolarisable
Recent climate warming has altered plant phenology at northern European latitudes, but conclusions regarding the spatial patterns of phenological change and relationships with climate are still challenging as quantitative estimates are strongly diverging. To generate consistent estimates of broad-scale spatially continuous spring plant phenology at northern European latitudes (> 50° N) from 2000
A long-standing question in evolutionary biology is how historical biogeographic processes have shaped the current diversity of organisms, especially for highly diverse groups. We study the diversification dynamics and biogeographic processes of one of the most diverse families of Lepidoptera, Geometridae, with over 24,000 described species and a worldwide distribution. Despite the cosmopolitan di
A prime function of the mucosal immune system is the production of secretory immunoglobulin (Ig) A antibodies. To initiate this, the organized lymphoid system is strategically located at sites where mucosal antigens are encountered. The follicle-associated epithelium (FAE) hosts specialized cells called M cells that effectively take up antigen. After transport of antigen via the FAE, the mucosal-a
