The stochastic Lagrange wave model is a realistic alternative to the Gaussian linear wave model, which has been successfully used in ocean engineering for more than half a century. This paper presents exact slope distributions and other characteristic distributions at level crossings for symmetric and asymmetric Lagrange space and time waves. These distributions are given as expectations in
Abstract in French Beaucoup d’hommes et de femmes aymara affirment que le savoir humain, transmis par la langue, n’est qu’un pur ‘siwsawi’, i.e. des paroles, des opinions, des points de vue, des jugements d’individus particuliers. Ainsi, il s’agit d’un savoir particulier ; c’est une connaissance concernant l’opinion de certaines personnes, rien de plus. Ceci est, de manière significative, différenMany Aymara men and women claim that human knowledge as transmitted through language is pure ‘siwsawi’, i.e. talk, opinions, views and judgments of particular individuals. As such it is knowledge of a particular kind; it is knowledge concerning the opinions of other humans, nothing else. It is thereby significantly different from the non-linguistic, experiential knowledge that is lived-through and
Objective. Hexaminolevulinate (HAL) is an optical imaging agent used with fluorescence cystoscopy (FC) for the detection of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Guidelines from the European Association of Urology (EAU) and a recent, more detailed European expert consensus statement agree that HAL-FC has a role in improving detection of NMIBC and provide recommendations on situations for its
This article discusses the potential for soft-governance instruments and processes such as the National Gender Equality Strategy to implement a strategy aiming at improved competiveness through gender equality. A central question addressed is how to create a women entrepreneurial identity within the framework of the dominant gender order in the forest sector? The literature review and policy analy
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hjärnan är ett organ som utgör 2 % av kroppsvikten men som mottar ca 20 % av hjärtats minut volym och har en mycket hög energi konsumtion. I samband med en blodpropp i något av hjärnas blodkärl eller att ett av hjärnans kärl brister får man en stroke eller cerebral ischemi. Man har under många decennier inriktad sig på den akuta behandlingen på att finna ett sätt att re
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancerformen hos kvinnor i Sverige, men även män kan drabbas. Hos män är det dock en mycket ovanlig cancerform. I Sverige insjuknar cirka 40 män per år av bröstcancer jämfört med cirka 8000 kvinnor per år. Bröstcancer hos män och kvinnor är på många sätt lika. Till exempel är sjukdomstecknen desamma och visar sig oftast som en knöl eller knCancer is today a major healthcare problem worldwide. There are many forms of cancer, which is a genetic disease, believed to result from a multistep process with genetic and epigenetic changes accumulating over time. Breast cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer in women, while it is much more rare in men. Male breast cancer (MBC) exhibits both similarities and differences with female b
The authors have collected data for the silver market, shedding light on market size, stocks in society and silver flows in society. The world supply from mining, depletion of the remaining reserves, reducing ore grades, market price and turnover of silver was simulated using the SILVER model developed for this study. The model combines mining, trade markets, price mechanisms, populations dynamics
This paper is the fourth in a series discussing experiences in applying the Strategic Systemic Thinking (SST) framework. The framework was originally proposed for the purpose of supporting contextual analysis into complex problem spaces as part of information systems analysis. Previous papers have dealt with an application supporting strategic development of work in an academic university departme
As a post-LOSC legal development, the precautionary principle is nowhere enunciated in the Law of the Sea Convention. Nevertheless, in the thirty years since the LOSC's adoption, the significance of the precautionary principle for marine environmental protection in general and marine resource conservation in particular has been recognised. The language of precaution, the precautionary principle an
