A model is described in which transient complete cerebral ischemia is induced in rats by intracardiac injection of potassium chloride. The animals were intubated and mechanically ventilated with a nitrous oxide/oxygen (70:30) mixture. Cardiac arrest was achieved following a brief period of ventricular fibrillation. After 5-6 min, the circulation was restored by cardiopulmonary resuscitation and pa
Sammanfattningsvis kan Självbestämmandeteorin (SDT) tillämpas av lärare för att stärka elevers motivation och välbefinnande. Däremot är det inte säkert att alla elever därigenom kommer att höja sin inre motivation eller sina studieresultat. Vissa elever är helt ointresserade av vissa ämnen och i avsaknad av motivation krävs mer än att tillämpa SDT. Vidare kan inte enbart ett förändrat klassrumskli

Particle physics has an ambitious and broad experimental programme for the coming decades. This programme requires large investments in detector hardware, either to build new facilities and experiments, or to upgrade existing ones. Similarly, it requires commensurate investment in the R&D of software to acquire, manage, process, and analyse the shear amounts of data to be recorded. In planning
This essay argues that an important factor behind the emergence of a rabbinic form of Judaism was a challenge to Jewish identity and self-understanding posed by Jesus-oriented groups who had appropriated essential aspects of Jewish self-understanding. The unease with gentile attachment to Israel’s God and involvement with the Torah, and the reconfiguration of the boundaries of Judaism to exclude J
The art of living and the art of eating: Professor Linnaeus recommends. By Gunnar Broberg. As professor of medicine, Linnaeus taught dietetics. He followed the pattern outlined by Galen and Regimen salernitatis, adding an extensive material originating from general cultural history and his own experience.Early in his life he wrote Diaeta naturalis, a collection of rules focusing the blessings of n
The Swedish inventor Christopher Polhem had an idea of a universal language which occupied him for decades, i.e. a perfect language which can be spoken and understood by everyone, by the educated and non educated alike, and no matter where they come from. Polhem did a large number of sketches for such a universal language, among others a manuscript concerning a lunar language, which was completely
Fibre-optic based sensing technologies are becoming popular in the field of geophysics since enable long range and high spatial resolution acoustic measurements. In this work, we present preliminary results obtained using quasi-distributed Fibre-Bragg grating sensing and Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) to monitor seismic activities in an operational underground mine. 12 FBGs and 800 metres of f
The multi-objective optimal power management of multi-microgrid systems is solved in this paper. Minimizing the total cost and emission of the system are considered as the objective functions. The multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm is applied on a multi-microgrid system that consists of four microgrids each includes diesel generators, wind turbines, photovoltaic units, battery,
This paper considers the concept and practice of entrepreneurial leadership in the academe. After a small introduction to the research in the emerging field of entrepreneurial leadership, we note many substantial differences between academic entrepreneurs and the general class of entrepreneurs so as to motivate our focus on the academic community. We then provide a brief narrative on some strands
Electric Road Systems (ERS) is an emerging new technology that aim to electrify land transport by supplying electric vehicles (EV) with power. By providing EV's the possibility to charge while driving i.e. dynamic charging the battery size can be greatly decreased compared to a solution with nighttime and fast charging. The evaluation of the potential of ERS has already been published in a number
Boken behandlar det äldsta statliga konstmuseet i Sverige, Kongl. Museum i Stockholms slott, med beaktande av dess tillkomsthistoria, samlingarnas ursprung och uppställning samt överförandet till Nationalmuseum i mitten av 1860-talet. Publikationen bygger på forskning om föremålen och dokumentation i arkiven och ger en helhetsbild som i flera avseenden korrigerar tidigare uppfattningar och ger en
Using the protection for exporters theory the thesis analyzes the EU’s quest for world markets in the case of trade negotiations with Singapore. The protection for exporters theory assumes governments to shift bias from the import competing sector to the export competing sector when exporters are exposed to potential losses. The thesis concludes three main findings of why the EU shifted policy tow
Fastigheter omfattar stora ekonomiska värden och för privatpersoner hör en fastighetsöverlåtelse ofta till en av de stora affärerna man gör i livet. Det är således viktigt att ansvarsfördelningen vid fel och brister i fastigheten blir tydlig så att köparen, säljaren respektive mäklaren vet vilket ansvar som gäller. Detta ansvar regleras i jordabalken och i fastighetsmäklarlagen. För köparen innebäProperties represents great economic value and a property acquisition can be the biggest transaction one will do in a lifetime. Transparence regarding the defect-rules are therefore of great importance. According to the Swedish Land Code the buyer has a duty to examine. This thesis purpose is to define the current legal situation regarding this duty, as well as if a duty to inform exists for the s
The aim of this project was to determine the consequences of the large-scale introduction of wood-based biofuels in the road transport sector. Therefore a model has been developed to project the demand for wood in Sweden in the period from 2007 to 2050. The wood-using sectors that were taken into account are: the sawmill industry; the paper and pulp industry, which was split in three: integrated c
This thesis is located at the intersection of two concepts: accountability in and communication for development. Two review chapters provide an overview of their general reception in the development discourse, relevant definitions and the significance both concepts have gained for the work of development NGOs. Within each concept the thesis focuses on a particular aspect: downward accountability a
