Room acoustics, as a branch of architectural acoustics, has got more and more attention nowadays. One of the aims of the room acoustics is to develop different method to evaluate the acoustic performance of the rooms and to address human acoustic comfort needs. Meanwhile, the process of reverberation plays an important role in room acoustics, and it is also an evaluation standard of evaluating roo

The Swedish government decided in late 2015 to reestablish the concept of “total defense”, the combined effort of civil and military defense, in response to a shifting political situation in Europe and around the Baltic sea, after decades of disarmament of both civil defense and the Swedish armed forces. This paper examines three local municipalities and their ability to handle their civil defense

I dag finns det ingen läkemedelsrening i svenska reningsverk, eftersom det för närvarande inte finns några regler för avloppsrening av läkemedelsrester i Sverige, vilket resulterar i höga halter av läkemedelsrester i miljön. Naturvårdsverket drog, i en nyligen publicerad rapport, slutsatsen att det finns behov av avancerad behandling av läkemedel i avloppsvatten. En av de mest lovande läkemedelsreToday, waste water treatment plants do not remove pharmaceutical residues from the water (as there are currently no regulations for wastewater treatment in regards to pharmaceuticals residues in Sweden) resulting in a high concentration of pharmaceuticals reaching the environment. The Swedish environmental protection agency have recently concluded that there is a need for advanced treatment of pha

Hjärttransplantationer syftar till att rädda liv men kan även vara riskabla ingrepp. Det är mycket som kan gå fel. Det transplanterade hjärtat lider stor risk att avstötas i mottagarens kropp, och en mer detaljerad kunskap om faktorerna som påverkar avstötning har således möjligheten att rädda liv. Avstötning orsakas av att mottagarens immunförsvar känner av HLA-molekylerna, där HLA står för HumThe beneficial effects of HLA matching at the HLA-A, -B and -DR loci on recipient short- and long-term survival in heart transplants have been established in a number of studies. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the importance of individual HLA alleles at the HLA-A, -B and -DR loci as risk factors for recipient death within one year after transplant by using artificial neural net

2016 tillsatte regeringen en utredning för att undersöka regleringen av den villkorliga frigivningen. Utredningen fick i uppdrag att undersöka om det finns skäl att föregå ett beslut om uppskjuten villkorlig frigivning med en riskbedömning av huruvida det finns risk för klienter i kriminalvårdsanstalt att återfalla i brott vid frigivningen. Utredningen kom fram till att det strider mot kravet på rIn 2016, the government commissioned an investigation to consider possible changes in the regulation of the conditional release. The investigation was commissioned to investigate whether there is a reason to precede a decision on a deferred conditional release with a risk assessment of whether there is a risk for clients in prison to re-offend when released. The investigation found that allowing p

Att ha välbevarad, vacker hy är något som många människor eftersträvar. Frågan är vilka medel folk är beredda att ta till för att uppnå detta och hur långt tillverkarna vågar gå i sina försök att tillfredsställa konsumenterna. På senaste tiden har en ny typ av skönhetsprodukter dykt upp på marknaden. Produkter som vid första anblick ser ut som vilka ansiktskrämer och serum som helst. Tar man sig

This study has aimed to understand the experiences of the Turkish women who share their knitting videos on YouTube through using the virtual ethnography conducted. The participant women mostly describe themselves as a “housewife” and/or specify their roles through association with domestic tasks, which is related to the position of assigned to many women by Turkish society. Most of them were born

En ml vatten från havsvatten innehåller ungefär 1 miljon bakterier och 10 miljoner virus. Prover från Östersjön har undersökts genom dataanalys för att studera dynamiken mellan bakteriers adaptiva immunförsvar – CRISPR - och virus.

When controlling the drum water level of marine boilers the rolling of the ship may cause problems. The drum water level gets a sinusoidal disturbance, which causes a disturbance of the feed water control valve. This disturbance may proceed through the feed water pump to other steam consumers. The rolling inflates other boiler parameters too. It will be shown that stability problems may appear if

Nödvärn fungerar i den svenska rättsordningen som en viktig säkerhetsventil för att man ska kunna försvara sig från brottsliga angrepp. På ett eller annat sätt har en sådan möjlighet alltid funnits, men den nödvärnsrätt som liknar dagens kom till när den infördes i 1864 års strafflag. Vid samma tillfälle blev det även brottsligt att misshandla sin fru för att styra familjen. I samhällsutvecklingen

Tawny owls and food for thought I have been focusing on tawny owls, which are a species of owls that you can find in a wide range of habitats. Everywhere from open fields to cities, they have found a way to survive, hunt for food and settle down. A very adaptable species. I was interested in finding out just what do these birds of prey eat, and how does that affect how well they survive, in diffe

Traditionell biologisk näringsavskiljning inom avloppsvattenrening, såsom denitrifikation och biologisk fosforavskiljning (EBPR), kräver tillgång på lättnedbrytbart kol för att bra reningsgrad ska uppnås. Dock är en stor andel av kolet i det inkommande avloppsvattnet partikulärt och måste hydrolyseras innan det blir tillgängligt för bakterierna i den biologiska reningen. Flera studier har studeratTraditional biological nutrient removal (BNR) processes in wastewater treatment require access to easily biodegradable carbon in order to achieve sufficient removal. However, a lot of the carbon in the influent wastewater is not directly available for BNR bacteria but need to undergo hydrolysis first. Several studies have investigated the possibility to produce an internal carbon source from the g
