A six-cylinder truck-size engine has been converted for Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) operation. This work demonstrates that it is possible to run a multi-cylinder engine under HCCI operation. The ultra-low NOX characteristic of HCCI is also demonstrated. The sensitivity of combustion timing with respect to operating parameters is investigated, and a closed-loop control system is
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur ser det ut inuti protonen? Vi vet att protonen består av mindre partiklar. Den utgörs egentligen av tre st. kvarkar, men där finns också en mängd gluoner och virtuella kvarkar och antikvarkar. Gluonerna är de partiklar som håller ihop de tre kvarkarna (valenskvarkarna) i ett så hårt grepp att protonen blir väldigt liten (ca. 100000 ggr mindre än en atom). Det är deIn this thesis, we give a description of the detailed structure of the proton and a description of the final-state properties in electron-proton scattering. Qualitative results, in a purely gluonic scenario with the leading log approximation, and quantitative results, where quarks are included and some sub-leading corrections have been made, are presented. The quantitative results are in fair agre
This paper outlines a case study in which a management development learning process was tightly coupled to organisational change and development objectives. The case discusses how a research and consulting team came together to develop highly reflexive pedagogy to support the work of internal managers who were organized into teams (learning sets) to undertake 'organisational problem solving'. Thes
Production of protein is often accompanied with difficulties due to the large amounts of different biological material resulting from fermentation. This makes purification necessary and affinity chromatography is usually involved as being biospecific, although suffering from limitations as low recovery due to ineffective elution and inability to handle particulate materials. Displacement of lactat

In this book, three historical macro-regions are analysed: East Asia, Southeast Asia and Mesoamerica. By comparing three very different historiographical patterns from the specific point of view of social militarisation, we gain an outsider's perspective that proves to be very illuminating. Due to structural features of the various scholarly arenas the three regions turn out very differently. Some
Eftersom den kristna kyrkan betraktar Jesus från Nasaret som gudomlig och tillber honom har detta av judar setts som ett uttryck för avgudadyrkan. Artikeln beskriver och analyserar hur man inom judisk tradition på olika sätt uppfattat detta.
This dissertation is a study of the Christian thematics in the novels of Christine Falkenland. It has two basic aims. First, to demonstrate how Christine Falkenland writes herself into, and becomes a distinct voice in, a Christian literary tradition, while simultaneously breaking with this tradition by staging and portraying modern people’s questioning of the Christian worldview. Second, to uncove

Popular Abstract in English In our current world, the exponential growth in demand for smaller and faster devices leads to the fact that we will eventually face the problem that traditional semiconductor technologies will reach their limitation in terms of size and speed. Humanity's consciousness to tackle the global ecological issues in the next decade, will demand the substitution of all non-reuThe work presented in this thesis addresses the investigation of the electronic, magnetic, and structural properties of late transition metal complexes supported on various surfaces. The research is aimed at studying the interaction between the molecules and the support, together with the intermolecular interaction. This knowledge is essential e.g. for the development of organic molecule-based dev
This article studies a hitherto unexplored dimension of the Chinese Civil War: the disparity between modern military technology and the conceptual and logistical capacities of the two warring sides. The author argues that the advanced weaponry, received by the Nationalists from their ally, the United States, but often captured on the battlefield by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) forces, proved
