In this thesis we explore two-dimensional water waves with zero gravity. Zero gravity waves were only recently given a rigorous study in recent papers, by Hur and Wheeler, and by Gonçalves Jorge Dias de Carvalho. The assumption of zero gravity simplifies many aspects of the problem, while making some more complex. We study the properties of these waves, and seek to lay some groundwork for further
Att nätverka är väldigt användbart i dagens samhälle för företag. Malmö Cleantech City är ett nätverk för miljöteknik företag i Malmö som ville få sin verksamhet utvärderad för potentiella utvecklingsmöjligheter. Därför utformades denna studie med kvalitativmetod och genomfördes genom telefonintervjuer med åtta respondenter. För att uppnå syftet formades forskningsfrågan “hur upplever företagen i Networking is a useful tool in today’s society for business development. Malmö Cleantech City is a network for environmental engineering in Malmö, who wished to get their network evaluated for potential progress opportunities. The study was designed with a qualitative methodology and was conducted through telephone interviews with eight respondents. The following research question was formed "
How should we deal with city planning in a world that is rapidly turning urban, without destroying valuable nature assets along the way? The last decades are proof that the system we are using today is not up to the challenge. Therefore this thesis is showing a new approach to how comprehensive city planning can grow from nature based values and a deeper understanding of a city’s foundation. Toda
Gaming as a Service is not defined in existing research. The lack of a formal definition leads to an ambiguity between its function as a business model and the long-term strategy of the firm. The purpose and aim of this study is to investigate the definition of GaaS business model, distinguishing its function from the strategy. Furthermore, the key components of the model are established based on
So, what does a new life for the old fire station mean? It means that it is possible for a new generation to utilize the Gåsebäck landmark and historical building. The building should be attractive for the investors, for the city, and its inhabitants. The provided opportunities for the development of the building could be considered as a temporary solution for maintaining the history of the Gåsebä
BACKGROUND: Animal studies indicate that some phthalate metabolites may harm female reproductive function. OBJECTIVES: We assessed the associations between exposure to phthalate metabolites and pregnancy loss. METHODS: Using a previously established cohort of couples planning their first pregnancy, we analyzed four primary and two oxidized secondary phthalate metabolites in urine samples collected
Airborne pollen has been associated with allergic symptoms in sensitized individuals, whereas atmospheric pollution indisputably aggravates the impact on the overall quality of life. Therefore, it is of major importance to correlate, forecast and disseminate information concerning high concentration levels of allergic pollen types and air pollutants to the public, in order to safeguard the quality
Context: Several studies suggest a link between increased activity of the inflammatory inhibitor-kappaB kinase/nuclear factor-kappaB (IKK/NF-kappaB) pathway in skeletal muscle and insulin resistance. Objective: We aimed to study the regulation of skeletal muscle IKK/NF-kappaB pathway activity as well as the association with glucose metabolism and skeletal muscle insulin signaling. Methods: The stu
Magnetic properties of MnAs nanocrystals embedded in GaAs are analyzed in the frame of phenomenological model proposed by Sasaki for ferritin superparamagnets. Our calculations explain qualitatively experimental data of magnetization versus temperature; obtained according to zero-field-cooled and field-cooled protocols. They show dynamics of magnetization of MnAs nanocrystals in range of temperatu
Abstract in UndeterminedAn analysis of the environmental effects and resource consumption by four systems for management of wastewater and organic household waste in a new city area have been performed, as follows: (1) conventional system complemented with advanced sludge treatment for phosphorus recovery, (2) blackwater system with urine diversion and food waste disposers, (3) blackwater system w
A fundamental precept of geochemistry is that arsenate coordinates at mineral surfaces in a predominately bridging-bidentate fashion. We show that this is incorrect for the model system, arsenate adsorbed at the surface of goethite (alpha-FeOOH), using a combination of XRD, EXAFS, and IR spectroscopic results. We report the crystal structure of pentaamminecobalt(III) arsenate, which consists of mo
Background: Biomarkers serve as a quantitative measure of brain injury and may predict cognitive outcome after cardiac arrest. This study investigates the association and predictive accuracy of acute changes in Alzheimer disease-associated biomarkers to cognitive outcome in cardiac arrest survivors.Methods: Retrospective study of the Target Temperature Management after Out-of-Hospital cardiac arre
The purpose of this paper is to clarify and understand the difference between Brunius?, Zettervall's and Graebe's valueing of a historical building, the cathedral of Lund. Between 1833 and 1963 the cathedral of Lund went through three larger restorations. The character of the restorations however differs a lot between the three church architects, Brunius, Zettervall and Graebe. In a time o
Den här uppsatsen har sin utgångspunkt i staden Lund vid tiden för Sveriges nationella omröstning om totalt rusdrycksförbud 1922. Syftet är att belysa den lokala alkoholsyn och de lokala alkoholkulturer som möjliggjort stadens specifika valresultat; ett valresultat som visade det näst lägsta förbudsintresset i hela landet. Uppsatsen försöker beskriva hur stadens olika aktörer och samhällsskikt -
Den här uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka vilken iransk identitet som skapas av landets ledning och på så sätt bidra till förståelsen av den iranska politiken. Frågeställningen är: "Hur ser den identitet ut som konstrueras av det iranska ledarskapet genom deras offentliga tal gällande kärnkraftsfrågan?". Frågan besvaras utifrån ett konstruktivistiskt perspektiv och med Laclaus och Mouffe
Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka vilka motiv företag inom tre branscher redovisar och vilka strategier de använder vid downsizing. Vidare att utreda om det föreligger skillnader mellan branschernas redovisade motiv och strategier samt om de motiv företagen riktar mot sina intressenter skiljer sig åt. Vi har gjort en kvalitativ studie över tolv svenska aktiebolag i tre branscher. Undersökninge
Denna uppsats fokuserar främst på interetniska relationer och hur dessa varierar beroende på om individer lever i grupper som innehar status som majoritets- eller minoritetsgrupp, samt undersöker orsaksförhållandena. Det empiriska underlaget har, av textförfattaren personligen, inhämtats genom kvalitativa intervjuer och deltagande observation under försommaren 2009 i två medelstora kommuner i Cent
