The current research focuses on creating a homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) fuel index suitable for comparing different fuels for HCCI operation. One way to characterize a fuel is to use the auto-ignition temperature (AIT). The AIT can be extracted from the pressure trace. Another potentially interesting parameter is the amount of low temperature heat release (LTHR) that is closely c
Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a high-impact pathogen with approximately 12,000 diagnoses annually in Eurasia. The virus causes a variety of clinical manifestations, with neurological symptoms in up to 30% of the patients. Lethality in Europe is <2% but post-encephalitis syndrome is seen in over 40% of the infected patients and results in substantial impairment in quality of life. Over th
Det är inte bara fukt, dålig ventilation eller andra tekniska faktorer, som är boven i dramat när människor upplever att de blir sjuka av innemiljön. Livssituation och livsstil kan också påverka.
Four exposures of Chicxulub impact ejecta along the Mexico-Belize border have been sampled and analyzed for major and trace element abundances. The ejecta deposits consist of a lower spheroid bed, containing clay and dolomite spheroids, and an upper diamictite bed with boulders and clasts of limestone and dolomite. The matrix of both beds is composed of clay and micritic dolomite. The rare earth e
I present the status of the THEPEG project for creating a common platform for implementing C++ event generators. I also describe briefly the status of the new version of ARIADNE implemented using this framework.
Sammanfattningsvis kan sägas att insamlingsorganisationernas arbete med fördelning av kostnader är en viktig del i deras arbete med att skapa legitimitet gentemot omgivningen. Tyvärr är dock reglerna de har att utgå ifrån något subjektiva vilket kan försvåra deras möjligheter till att vara tydliga och transparanta. Vi har sett att alla organisationers verksamheter påverkas av många olika faktorer
Background: An increased concern of environmental issues have made companies, including Haldex, look for new engineering and design practices to keep up with legislations and stakeholder pressure, often by analyzing products’ total environmental impact over their life cycles, in so called life cycle assessment studies. The Haldex Project Management Model is a company specific project model where H
Studiens fokus ligger på att utvärdera hur moderna intranät används för att stödja informat- ionshantering inom en organisation, och om ett sådant informations-system kan generera verksamhetsnytta. Syftet är att vi vill bidra till en djupare förståelse om hur informations- och kommunikationsteknologin används för att stödja informationshantering och verksamhets- nytta. Som undersökningsobjekt har
This paper has the purpose to determine whether the attractive rates offered by a local Investment Bank in Mexico under structured products, more specifically under structured notes without principal protection denominated “Dual Structured Notes”, are plausible to get, showing whether the strikes of the implicit options were chosen within critical price values for the foreign exchange rate MXN/USD
Payments for ecosystem services (PES), a mechanism of incentives or compensation to landowners for provision of ecosystem services, have grown as a tool for meeting conservation goals. The Costa Rican payments for ecosystem services (PSA) program is one of the best-known examples because of being one of the most established. Despite this, the PSA program and many other PES programs do not monitor
Sustainable development requires collaboration between governments, businesses, and citizens. However, economic models, sustainability practices, and global policies are currently not fit-for-purpose to maintain global temperatures to 1.5 degrees centigrade within the timescales required to maintain a safe space for humanity to thrive. This study maps the alignment of business values and practices
