Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to investigate the added value of using temperature-dependent electric and magnetic properties in high-Temperature electromagnetic simulations. Design/methodology/approach - In this work, the electromagnetic properties of Domex 420, SSAB, have been characterized as a function of the temperature, from room temperature to 900°C. The measurement of the electric a
This presentation builds on several ethnographic fieldworks (2011-2015) in southern Sweden on people who have Palestinian background as well as my on-going informal involvement with Palestinian networks. The field material includes about 35 qualitative interviews, numerous informal discussions and participant observations of political events (mostly demonstrations and lectures) and people’s daily
The new trace element measurement technique "photon-tagged Nuclear Reaction Analysis" (pNRA) is introduced and the experimental procedures are described in detail. The pNRA-technique is an ion-beam analytical technique intended for the determination of the abundance of the lightest elements, ranging from lithium to phosphorus. The technique is a complement to the PIXE technique. pNRA is a multipar
Popular Abstract in English Soil as an ecosystem is a reservoir for several living organisms including microorganisms, earthworms, collembolans, nematodes and protozoans. They are involved in cycling the nutrients through degrading the organic compounds (source of carbon essential for all living organisms) like plant residues and respire part of it as carbon dioxide. Organic compounds get stored iAbstract Intensive land use in agriculture can lead to higher loss of biodiversity in soils and subsequently carbon due to tillage and application of pesticides and fertilizers. The microbial communities are pivotal to ecosystem processes in soil such as nutrient cycling, soil formation and plant productivity and thus are affected by land use. The main aim of this thesis is to understand the effe
Purpose: To assess the associations of meniscal tears, knee malalignment, cartilage damage, knee effusion, and body mass index with meniscal extrusion. Materials and Methods: The Multicenter Osteoarthritis study is an observational study of individuals who have or are at risk for knee osteoarthritis (OA). The HIPAA-compliant protocol was approved by the institutional review boards of all particip
The biogenicity of ancient morphological microfossil-like objects can be established by linking morphological (e.g. cell remnants and extracellular polymeric matrix) and chemical (e.g. isotopes, biomarkers and biominerals) evidence indicative of microorganisms or microbial activity. We have developed a non-destructive micro-analytical ion beam system capable of measuring with high spatial resoluti
The macroscopic properties of metallic materials depend on the state of the grain microstructure. Recrystallization acts as one of the most important mechanisms in the evolution of the microstructure and hence also of the macroscopic properties. This paper presents a mesoscale model of microstructure evolution due to recrystallization, based on a level set formulation employed in a finite element
The present study elaborates on a 2D level set model of polycrystal microstructures that was recently established by adding the influence of anisotropic grain boundary energy and mobility on microstructure evolution. The new model is used to trace the evolution of grain boundary character distribution during grain growth. The employed level set formulation conveniently allows the grain boundary ch
Photovoltaic modules in two-dimensional low-concentrating systems with specular parabolic reflectors often experience high local irradiance that causes high local currents and cell temperatures. This generally results in power losses. The use of low-angle scattering reflectors gives a smoother irradiance distribution, which results in a higher fill factor. In order to study how the choice of refle
The local structure of amorphous Si (a-Si) formed by ion implantation has been investigated at the Si K edge with extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS). The first four cumulants of the interatomic distance distribution have been determined using the Cumulant method. The structural parameters (bondlength, coordination number and Debye-Waller factor) compared favorably to pre
Non-linearity in the energy response of a Si p-i-n charged particle detector has been studied for incident particles with Z(1) between 3 and 26, and energies between 0.1 and 0.7 MeV per nucleon. Although the data closely followed a straight line relations, fitting of the data to a third order polynomial revealed that the response exhibited a persistent curvature that acted to reduce the energy int
A dedicated AMS facility for depth profiling of tritium in carbon samples has been installed, tested and applied to routine measurements in the Forschungszentrum. Rossendorf. It is based on an SF6-insulated 100 kV tandem accelerator equipped with a thin diamond-like carbon (DLC) stripper foil of about 1 mug/cm(2). With this setup carbon samples with tritium concentrations in the range of 5 x 10(10
Frequent allelic deletions at chromosome 11q24-q25 have been described in both early and late onset breast cancers, suggesting the existence of a gene locus implicated in the initiation and/or progression of the disease. In the present study we fine mapped this region further by loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis in a population of early onset breast cancer cases (n = 102, 22 to 36 years old).
The purpose of this paper was to gain knowledge about how our senior citizens living in institutions manage their everyday life. Do they get a say on what should be done and how? Do they want to make their own decisions and is it possible for them to express needs and wishes? Is there a way to combine this sort of influence on your own way of living with the fact that many of these elderly people
The purpose of this study is to analyse the communication of Apple to illustrate how social exclusion is used to produce fear, and how it has played the role as a means of persuasion in a constructed reality. In the present investigation process the researchers have taken a critical stance. The authors aim at unveiling the structure of implicit means of persuasion in various Apple’s campaigns over
Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur sociala entreprenörer i Sverige konstruerar sin organisationsidentitet samt hur de positionerar sig gentemot närliggande aktörer. Vidare vill vi undersöka hur deras identitet skiljer sig från, eller liknar, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Vår studie avser därmed bidra med ny kunskap om hur organisationer som arbetar med samhällsfrågor kan använda sin The purpose of this study is to examine how social entrepreneurs in Sweden construct an organizational identity and how they position themselves against similar organizations. Further on, we aim to examine how their identity differs from, or is similar to, the idea of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Our study thereby intends to provide new knowledge of how organizations working with social
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the research on open access and institutional repositories between the years 2002-2016. 2002 was seen as a natural starting point because of the Budapest Open Access Initiative and represents a pivotal point in the history of open access. Further, the paper aims to analyze the positioning of institutional repositories within open acc
Rollfördelningen mellan part och domstol har länge varit föremål för diskussioner i juridisk doktrin. Frågeställningar kring vilka omständigheter som föranleder domstol att tillgodose partsintressen genom materiell processledning eller övriga utredande åtgärder leder inte sällan till komplexa resonemang hänförliga till civilprocessens och förvaltningsprocessens egentliga funktion. Domstolens verksThe distribution of roles between the parties and the court has long been the subject of discussion in legal writing. Questions related to circumstances that cause the court to satisfy party interests through direction of proceedings or other investigative measures often leads to complex reasoning related the function of the different procedures, those of civil procedure and administrative judicia
The purpose of this study has been to explore how different actors in a nursing home (i.e. Head of Unit, staff and residents) argue about elder residents’ care, autonomy and possibilities to influence and how this correlate with the increasing tendencies to view elder people as independent individuals. The study was based on eight qualitative interviews with two Heads of Unit, two staff members an
