The capabilities of current computer simulations provide a unique opportunity to model small-angle scattering (SAS) data at the atomistic level, and to include other structural constraints ranging from molecular and atomistic energetics to crystallography, electron microscopy and NMR. This extends the capabilities of solution scattering and provides deeper insights into the physics and chemistry o
The financing of energy efficiency measures and renovations is key to reaching energy efficiency targets for the housing sector. The purpose of this article is to add the Swedish case of how capital market funds have become accessible and used by public and private housing companies, in particular for energy efficiency measures. The core of this article are interviews with representatives of Swedi
To reduce the load on the operator of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) during long search and rescue, and monitoring missions, the concept of an automatic system is proposed, which directly on board performs a prelimi-nary analysis of images received from a high-resolution navigation video camera, determines areas of interest, and sets the position of an additional camera with a reduced viewing an
Minimizing the fiber property distribution would have the potential to improve the pulp properties and the process efficiency of chemimechanical pulp. To achieve this, it is essential to improve the level of knowledge of how evenly distributed the sulfonate concentration is between the individual chemimechanical pulp fibers. Due to the variation in quality between pulpwood and sawmill chips, as we
In this paper, we focus on the design of the transmit waveforms of a frequency diverse array (FDA) in order to improve the output signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) in the presence of signal-dependent mainlobe interference. Since the classical multi-carrier matched filtering-based FDA receiver cannot effectively utilize the waveform diversity of FDA, a novel FDA receiver framework base
BackgroundThere is a need for the development of accurate, accessible and efficient screening instruments, focused on early-stage detection of neurocognitive disorders. The Geras Solutions cognitive test (GSCT) has showed potential as a digital screening tool for cognitive impairment but normative data are needed.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to obtain normative data for the GSCT in cognitive
Different forms of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I heavy chains are known to be expressed on the cell surface, including molecules which are functionally 'empty'. Direct peptide binding to cells is obvious during sensitization of target cells in vitro for cytotoxic T lymphocyte killing and 'empty' MHC-I molecules are comparatively abundant on TAP- 1 2 peptide transporter mutant cell
During epileptic seizures, neuronal network activity is hyper synchronized whereby GABAergic parvalbumin-interneurons may have a key role. Previous studies have mostly utilized 4-aminopyridine to induce epileptiform discharges in brain slices from healthy animals. However, it is not clear if the seizure-triggering ability of parvalbumin-interneurons also holds true without the use of external conv
Due to the focus of their study program, environmental and sustainability students are vulnerable to experience negative emotional impacts, potentially affecting their mental health. This thesis contributes to increased understanding of emotions and emotional resilience in relation to the climate crisis by examining experienced emotions, studying the power students have over their emotions, and po
Denna studie undersöker och jämför tre filmer från 1900-talet om Jeanne d'Arc ur ett historiekulturellt perspektiv. Filmerna ifråga är Carl Th. Deyers "La passion de Jeanne d'Arc" (1928), Victor Flemings "Joan of Arc" (1948) och Luc Bessons "The Messenger: the Story of Joan of Arc"(1999). Studien nyttjar Klas-Göran Karlssons teorier om historiekultur och histo
As the need to adapt to a changing climate and the political rhetoric in this regard are growing, Berlin’s Senate has issued strategic policies – complemented by an increase of funding. Berlin’s socio-cultural features and place-based factors seem predisposed for so-called “Nature-based Solutions” (NbS) that can support the achievement of adaptation efforts. This encouraging context seems to be co
Climate change is the greatest challenge of our time. Despite efforts to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG), the emissions contribution from global aviation is set to increase. Electric aviation has emerged as an alternative which could form part of the solution. Sweden, which is on the path to carbon neutrality and has a long history in aviation, could contribute to the global efforts in mitigating clim
Global warming is a very much researched and debated topic in the current period as we can see the effects around us. The literature and discussions have pointed to a surface temperature rise of up to 10°C at the poles and around 4°C-7°C around the equator. The effect is more in the northern hemisphere than in southern hemisphere of our planet Earth. The effects of the warming of our environment o
Sustainability philosophers claim that we are at the impasse of stories, finding ourselves in a blank chapter between the old and the new. The old story, characterized by separation, technological arrogance and human superiority over nature, is unfolding in an ecological crisis giving space for a new narrative defined by inter being, cooperation and balance. It has been put forward that this crisi
This study aims to gain a deeper understanding of how individuals, in an organizational context, experience the process of unlearning in relation to routines and how these individuals might be influenced in their unlearning process.
På en testuppställning med 5 mikrorektorer, utfördes en serie kinetiska tester. Uppställningen möjliggör matning av variabla koncentrationer av metanol, vatten, dimetoxymetan och CO. Även reaktionstemperatur och tryck in i rektorerna är justerbart. Rektorerna är parallella och matas en i taget, vilket gör att 5 prover kan testas under samma förhållanden utan avbrott. Begränsningar på grund av massA series of kinetic experiments were performed using a custom made 5-micro reactor setup. The setup allows for input of varying concentration of methanol, water, dimethoxymethane and O2, and adjustable reaction temperature, and pressure. The reactors are used in sequence, to allow5 different samples to be tested under the same conditions. The influence of mass and heat transport limitations were c
Green bonds are facing prosperity in international and China’s bond market, and becoming increasingly important in the overarching aim of financing green projects to reduce environmental impacts. Therefore, the green degree is an important topic. Based on literature review and interviews, this study defined five key stakeholders in green bond market in China. The regulators are the primary drivin
A critical stage for the construction of steel-concrete composite bridges occurs during casting of the bridge deck, when the wet concrete has still not hardened. The entire construction load is then taken by the non-composite steel sections. Bracing may be needed to make the slender girders rigid enough to resist lateral torsional buckling during this phase. If temporary formwork could be attached
