Departure deviations from shunting yards impact the reliability of rail freight services and the punctuality of a railway network. Therefore, the statistical analysis of these deviations are necessary for improving the operation of trains in mixed-traffic networks. In our paper, we conduct a detailed statistical analysis of departure deviations considering individual shunting yards characteristics

This literature review presents a summary of recent research about PM-less machines for electrical vehicles. Recently, IPM machines has proven to be very popular among electrical vehicle manufacturers. However, the neodymium permanent magnets being used are expensive and have a risk of rocketing the production cost of a machine if the price increases more. With this in mind, five PM-less machine t

Arsenic methylating enzyme (AS3MT) genetic variations and their role in variability of As metabolism were evaluated in population of pregnant/non-pregnant women exposed to low levels of As. We have tested the associations between genotypes/haplotype of seven AS3MT SNPs and As metabolites in urine (methylation efficiency). Significant associations of individual SNPs and protective haplotype with ar

In the last decades one of the main topics in the international intellectual property forum has been the biopiracy issue. Genetic resources and traditional knowledge from developing nations are being misappropriated (i.e. biopiracy), by commercial actors in order to receive patent protection. Developments in genetics and biotechnology have intensified the controversy and attempts were initially so

In the last decade 3D technologies have become a very effective means for managing and interpreting archaeological data. A better way to perceive, understand and communicate Cultural Heritage has been achieved through VR applications, which have enabled archaeologists both to make reconstructions of original landscapes and to put artifacts in their original context. Furthermore, the pervasive grow

Leachate constitutes the main potential long-term environmental risk of landfill emissions. The EU landfill directive 1999/3 I/EC requires minimum monitoring during the active landfill life and the after-care phase. Due to time and resource limitations, monitoring of leachate quality is a compromise between information density and applicability. Samples from passively collected leachate are suspec

The aim of this article was to analyze the retold experiences of 27 survivors from the 1990s war in Bosnia and Herzegovina. I have examined verbal markers of reconciliation and implacability and I have analyzed described terms for reconciliation that are being actualized in the narratives. In the narratives of those interviewed, implacability is the prominent them, but the possibility of reconcili

BACKGROUND: CXC chemokines are induced by inflammatory stimuli in epithelial cells and some, like MIG/CXCL9, IP-10/CXCL10 and I-TAC/CXCL11, are antibacterial for Streptococcus pyogenes. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: SpeB from S. pyogenes degrades a wide range of chemokines (i.e. IP10/CXCL10, I-TAC/CXCL11, PF4/CXCL4, GROalpha/CXCL1, GRObeta/CXCL2, GROgamma/CXCL3, ENA78/CXCL5, GCP-2/CXCL6, NAP-2/C

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen tar upp frågor om prästernas arbetsmiljö och deras roll och identitet. I inledningskapitlet framhölls att flera faktorer är viktiga för en undersökning om prästernas arbetsmiljö och för utformningen av prästrollen och prästidentiteten. Det omgivande samhället, de organisatoriska ramarna och de förväntningar som ställs på prästerna är några sådana faktorer, In this dissertation the work environment and the roles and identities of the clergy in the Church of Sweden are investigated. It is said in the first chapter that there are several factors influencing the work environment and that these factors are important for the formation of the roles and identities of the clergy. The surrounding society, the organization, and the expectations directed at the

Swedish Development Cooperation emphasizes the need for collaboration among actors on a national level. In that context, the purpose of the thesis is to investigate how Public Private Partnership (PPP) on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) may influence the changing role of the state. The thesis is informed by Critical Discourse Analysis. In order to investigate the social constructions of real

Purpose/Objective(s): Over 30% of advanced prostate cancers harbor a predominance of neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) differentiation. Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) has numerous limitations in prostate adenocarcinoma (PCa-adeno), however there is no data that exists outside of isolated single person case reports to assess the utility of PET to restage and monitor
