Detta examensarbete behandlar cellons roll under barocken och går igenom den pågående diskussionen kring terminologi och spelstil. Tyngdpunkten ligger på en analys och kritisk granskning av Michel Corrette’s Méthode pour apprendre le violoncelle, Op. 24, samt ett praktiskt utforskande av Correttes principer som resulterade i en inspelning av en sonat för två celli av Corrette. Genom att experimentThis thesis explores the role of the cello in the Baroque period and examines the ongoing discussion surrounding terminology and performance style. The main focus is a critical analysis and review of Michel Corrette’s Méthode pour apprendre le violoncelle, Op. 24, along with a practical application of Corrette’s principles, which culminated in a recording of a sonata for two cellos by Corrette.

Today there are still single family houses with direct electric heating systems, even though this is an expensive and inefficient way of heating a house. It is common to install an air-to-air heat pump that requires less electricity to produce the same amount of heat as a direct electricity heating system. These heat pumps do not produce any energy for domestic hot water since the water is heated

This chapter discusses three comparative projects that were all, at least partially, created through the replication of research across the Mistra Urban Futures cities. A typology of six possible models was developed, illustrating how comparative transdisciplinary knowledge co-production could take place across multiple cities, and the second of these approaches was identified as “local projects r

BACKGROUND: The objective of the Swedish cleft lip and palate (CLP) registry is to promote quality control, research and improvement of treatment, by comparison of the long-term results of surgery, orthodontics and speech from all six Swedish CLP centres. The purpose of the study was to investigate the coverage and reporting degree of the Swedish CLP registry, and to describe the design of the reg

Objective: To develop a model and methodology for predicting the risk of Gleason upgrading in patients with prostate cancer on active surveillance (AS) and using the predicted risks to create risk-based personalised biopsy schedules as an alternative to one-size-fits-all schedules (e.g. annually). Furthermore, to assist patients and doctors in making shared decisions on biopsy schedules, by provid

Background: People with Intellectual Disability (ID) in Sweden should be enabled to live like others. This life like others is realised in group homes that have little in common with the typical home. Method: A reading of Appiah’s As if is used to discuss how people with ID are supported in Sweden. Current national data are presented within the framework of idealisation, the use of (useful) untrut

OBJECTIVE The authors aimed to develop the first clinical grading scale for patients with surgically treated spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). METHODS A nationwide multicenter study including 401 ICH patients surgically treated by craniotomy and evacuation of a spontaneous supratentorial ICH was conducted between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2015. All neurosurgical ce

Supplier relationships in the automotive industry have changed fundamentally in recent decades owing to trends such as less verticalintegration, global sourcing, simultaneous engineering, and theInternet. Suppliers have become much more important in terms ofboth production and development. The ability to manage engineeringchanges (EC) efficiently and reliably reflects the capability of thewhole su

INTRODUCTION: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by the destruction of pancreatic islet beta cells resulting in total loss of insulin production. Recent studies have suggested that the destruction may be interrelated to plasma lipids.OBJECTIVES: Specific lipids have previously been shown to be decreased in children who develop T1D before four years of age. Disturbances of plasma lipids prior to clini

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an established risk factor for intermittent claudication (IC) and other manifestations of atherosclerotic peripheral arterial disease. Indications for surgery in infrainguinal IC are debated, and there are conflicting reports regarding its outcomes in patients with DM. Aims of this study were to compare both short- and long-term effects on total- and cardiovas

Global agri-food systems are in urgent need of a sustainability transformation guided by best practices of agroecology. The study used the Tool for Agroecological Performance Evaluation (TAPE) to assess the performance of seven market gardens in southern Sweden in comparison to the Swedish horticultural sector. The findings indicate that all participating market gardens could be considered agroeco

Stormfloder betraktas som ett stort hot mot ekosystem och infrastruktur längs kuster, och hotet ökar på grund av det nuvarande föränderliga klimatet, med alltmer frekventa översvämningshändelser, erosion och sedimentomlagring. I detta sammanhang blir insatser för att identifiera spår av stormfloder i geologiska arkiv allt viktigare för att förstå effekterna av sådana händelser på miljön. Denna stuStorm-surges are considered a major coastal threat to ecosystems and infrastructure in the current changing climate, with increasingly frequent flooding events, erosion and sediment redistribution. In this context, efforts to identify traces of storm-surges in the geological record are becoming increasingly important to understand the impacts of such events on the environment. This project investi

This approach combines McStas instrument simulationwith BornAgain sample modeling capabilities. The Monte Carlo Particle Listsformat for particle trajectory allows exchange between simulations that enablesseamless transition

Evaluating the effect of measurement errors on either adaptive or simultaneous control charts has been a topic of interest for the researchers in the recent years. Nevertheless, the effect of measurement errors on both adaptive and simultaneous monitoring control charts has not been considered yet. In this paper, through extensive numerical studies, we evaluate the effect of measurement errors on

Introduction: Elevated pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) is observed in both physiological and pathological states. Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a condition associated with significant morbidity and mortality in neonates and children and curative pharmacotherapy is lacking in most cases. In utero, a high PVR allows for blood to bypass the lungs through the open ductus arteriosus (DA). Vascular

Liquid crystalline nanoparticles (LCNPs), e.g. cubosomes and hexosomes, are receiving more and more attraction as drug delivery vehicles. Dry powder formulation that forms LCNPs upon hydration can be advantageous to make new routes of administration accessible. In this work, we investigate use of three disaccharides (lactose, trehalose and sucrose) as protective matrices for glycerol monooleate ba

The aim of this chapter is to analyse and describe how teachers’ use of theoretical conjectures in instruction during a Learning Study (LeaS) process affected high-functioning autism spectrum disorder (HFASD) students’ learning outcomes when following the national curriculum. Participants were students in grades 7 to 9 (n = 11) and their teachers (n = 5). The 11 adolescents (4 females and 7 males)

Platform trials have become widely adopted across multiple disease areas over recent years, however, guidelines for operationalising these trials have not kept pace. We outline a series of documents that summarise the statistical components, and implicit processes, of the Staphylococcus aureus Network Adaptive Platform (SNAP) trial to provide an informal template for other researchers and reviewer

INTRODUCTION: The FEV1 quotient (FEV1Q), calculated as the index between FEV1 and a theoretical lower survivable FEV1 threshold of 0.4L for females and 0.5L for males, has been investigated as a novel method of interpreting results from lung function testing. The applicability of the FEV1Q in populations with chronic respiratory failure has not been studied, and the continuous association between
