The aim of the user related assessment was to study perceived advantages, disadvantages, usefulness, trust, acceptance, willingness to have and pay for the driver assistance system: Enhanced Dynamic Pass Predictor developed by BMW within the framework of the SECONDS subproject. Due to restrictions of driving by naïve drivers in real traffic conditions, assessment activities were limited to a demon
The core of the research theme ageing and the environment is the better understanding of the interrelations between ageing persons and their physical-social surroundings (home environments; out-of-home environments; technology and products) including intervention and implementation.
This book discusses the history of aviculture and the cultural extent of keeping and raising birds in captivity for pleasure, companion, ornamental reasons, religious causes or various economic or practical purposes. Since the dawn of mankind, humans have kept birds in captivity. Several species are truly domesticated, while others have simply been bred in captivity for many generations. Today bir
We report an ethnographic and field-experiment-based study of time intervals in Amondawa, a Tupi language and culture of Amazonia. We analyse two Amondawa time interval systems based on natural environmental events (seasons and days), as well as the Amondawa system for categorising lifespan time (“age”). Amondawa time intervals are exclusively event-based, as opposed to time-based (i.e. they are b
Characterization of aerosols, emitted from five methods of thermal spraying with materials containing chromium and nickel were carried out. The characterization procedure includes the determinations of the metal content, the particle size distribution, the oxidation state of chromium and a measure of the solubility of chromium. Three different kinds of samplers and the analytical methods PIXE (Par
The purpose of this dissertation is the study of the journalism of Runer Jonsson (born 1916), as sole editor of Nybro Tidning, published by the printing house Johansson & Svenson AB. Although coming directly from industrial work, not quite 20 of age and not at all experienced in newspaper publishing Jonsson started his new career after for two years having showed his ability as a writer of loc
a) The use of a solid phase reaction (silver silicate) for avoiding ortho ester formation in some difficult glycosyl donor/acceptor systems. Thus seven monodeoxygenated analogues of 2-(Trimethylsilyl)ethyl betha-lactoside were synthesiszed. Silver silcate was successfully used in betha 1-4 coupling of 2- and 3-deoxy glucosides to to acetobromogalactose. By similar means, the monodeoxylactosyl brom
Ideas on orthographic standardization at the end of the 17the century and a few decades afterwards. The principal actors: Swedberg and Hiärne. The most interesting problem: gemination of vowels and consonants. The new translation of the bible did change the orthography but the spelling was still too conservative and irregular in many respects.
Discussion of transparency and indexes of corruption and their effect on the growing anti-corruption movement. Trust in numbers may lead to opacity rather than transparency
We present the results of a search for relations between observables that are independent of the Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) Next-to-Next-to-Leading Order (NNLO) Low-Energy Constants (LECs). We have found some relations between observables in $\pi\pi$, $\pi K$ scattering and $K_{l4}$ decay which have been evaluated numerically using the old fit (fit 10 in~\cite{Amoros:2001cp}) of the NLO LEC
Popular Abstract in English The Andean region and the Amazon Basin of South America have been identified as regions of origin and the domestication of many plants. Some of the food crops from these regions such as potato and cassava, have gained global import¬ance, while the majority of food crops are hardly know outside their present area of cultivation. In the first part of this study, underutiBoth the nutritional and functional properties of starch are directly influenced by the molecular structure of its polymers: amylose and amylopectin. It is therefore important to have reproducible methods for quantifying the molecular size. In the first part of the thesis, the composition, crystallinity, degree of branching, morphological, thermal and pasting properties, and susceptibility of the
The dynamic testing method, as an alternative to traditional bench testing against a brake, has proven to be a fast, convenient, yet accurate way of characterizing electrical machines. By measuring the speed and the currents and voltages while alternatively accelerating and decelerating the electrical machine it is possible to obtain its torque and flux linkage characteristics dynamically. This ar
Denna rapport tar fram publikens röster i samband med utställningen Petroglyfiskt Virtuella upplevelser kring hällristningar (maj 2013-december 2014) vid Österlens museum i Simrishamn. Rapporten är en fallstudie som belyser ett pilotprojekt och forskningsexperiment kring publikens möte med interaktiv digital teknik och konst i ett kulturarvssammanhang, samt besökarnas reaktioner på interaktiva och
This report has been written at the request of The Swedish National Committee for Psychology at the Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences and it provides an account of the external research funding at the six large university departments of psychology in Sweden during the years 1995, 1997, 1999 and 2001. First, an overview of the six departments is given with respect to the amount of research funding,
