This case book has been compiled within the framework of Phase III of the programme on Regional Air Pollution in Developing Countries (RAPIDC) funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) and coordinated by the Stockholm Environmental Institute (SEI). This work has been produced by the International Institute of Industrial Environmental Economics (IIIEE) at Lund Univer
The increasingcost for System-on-Chip (SOC) testing is mainly due to the hugetest data volumes that lead to long test application time andrequire large automatic test equipment (ATE) memory. Testcompression and test sharing have been proposed to reduce the testdata volume, while test infrastructure and concurrent testscheduling have been developed to reduce the test application time.In this work w
The objective of the seminar was to summarize, discuss, question and conclude the present state-of-the-art on prediction models for corrosion initiation due to chloride ingress in structures exposed to sea water and de-icing salts. Papers were presented on various topics. A test case was designed and the experts made predictions of chloride ingress for this well-defined case.
The paper argues that the final value of an object, i.e., its value for its own sake, need not be intrinsic. It need not supervene on the object’s internal properties. Extrinsic final value, which accrues to things (or persons) in virtue of their relational features, cannot be traced back to the intrinsic value of states that involve these things together with their relations. On the opposite, suc
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling består av en tillämpad och en teoretisk del. I den tillämpade delen studeras tänkbara riskfaktorer för blodsjukdomarna myeloisk leukemi (ML) och myelodysplastiska syndrom (MDS). Den teoretiska delen tar upp några metodproblem som kan uppstå i epidemiologiska undersökningar som utnyttjar databaser innehållande uppgifter om andelen personer i olika yrkesgCase-control studies comprising telephone interviews for 333 cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), 226 cases of Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (Ph+ CML), 330 cases of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), and matched controls were conducted. Information had to be obtained from next-of-kin much more often for cases (85%) than for controls (18%). Tobacco smoking was associated
A general approach to derive summation rules in electromagnetics using Herglotz functions is presented in this paper. This approach is then used to obtain summation rules and bounds on partial wave scattering, which are illustrated numerically by the scattering of a Drude sphere.
Cellulose can be chemically modified to produce derivatives with specific properties. Knowledge of correlations between the modification reaction, substituent distribution, origin of cellulose and properties are importaint in order to design processess so as to produce derivatives with the desired properties. This thesis describes research on newly developed analytical methods for the analysis of
We investigate the light emission from dipolar emitters located within nanoparticle antennas. It is found that the enormous emission enhancement can reach nearly a million fold. For multinanoparticle antennas, the polarization of the emissions strongly depends on the geometry of the antennas, the emitted wavelengths, and the dielectric functions of surrounding media. It is shown that a polarizatio
Molecular imprinting is a versatile technique providing functional materials able to recognize and in some cases respond to biological and chemical agents of interest. In contrast to biological antibodies, the best known receptors derived from biological combinatorial processes, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are obtained by template-directed synthesis. Thus, molecular imprinting can more p
Prevention of incorporation of dUTP into DNA is essential for maintenance of the genetic information. Prompt and specific removal of dUTP from the nucleotide pool, as expedited by the ubiquitous enzyme dUTPase, is therefore required for full viability in most biological systems. Conserved structural features perpetuate specificity in choice of substrate, which is crucial as hydrolysis of the struc
