There is a strong relationship between regional sediment transport and the local processes at tidal inlets and around coastal structures. Many coastal projects require quantitative understanding of these processes and the interactions between them. Regional sediment transport and shoreline evolution models that fully include important coastal processes at local scale are lacking at present. The ov

Popular Abstract in Swedish I och med att mjukvarubaserade produkter ökar i antal ökar också vikten av en effektiv mjukvaruutvecklingsprocess, ur ett konkurrensperspektiv. Bristfällig produktkvalitet och höga utvecklingskostnader är något som mjukvaruutvecklingsorganisationer under många år har kämpat med. Studier inom SPI (software process improvement) syftar till att förbättra produktkvalitet ocThe number of software-based products is increasing, which is why the importance of an efficient software development process is also increasing, from a competitive advantage perspective. For years, software development organizations have been plagued by poor product quality and high development costs. Studies in software process improvement (SPI) have concerned themselves with improving the softw

This paper gives an overview of recently published Swedish guidelines for service-life design of concrete structures. The guideline is based on the probabilistic methodology developed in the European project DuraCrete. The methodology has been further developed and applied to Swedish conditions. The design is based on the definition of several “maintenance classes” where the failure probability is

Det tänkande som ligger under Kristinas självframställning - livet är ett skådespel - beskrivs, samt de genrebundna mönster för Kristinas jag som hon utnyttjar påvisas i Krisinas text, bl a Plutarkos biografi över Alexander den store, den kvinnliga helgonbiografin. Dessa kan knytas till Kristinas manliga klädsel, hennes transvestism samt till hennes bild av sitt offer(abdikationen)som ett hjältedå

Discussion concerning school and cultural change

The films of Swedish filmmaker and writer Carl Henric Svenstedt (b. 1937)are discussed within the framework of the tradition of poetic cinema and documentarism. In focus are four of his later films, Winter Gale (2007), Harg! Platsens musik (2010), Änglastämman (2010), and Tidens gång - Im Lauf der Zeit (2012).

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett poröst material är ett material med hålrum fyllda av gas eller vätska. Transport av molekyler genom ett poröst material beror på materialets struktur och har betydelse för områden som oljeutvinning, katalytisk avgasrening och blöjors uppsugningsförmåga. Porösa material vars struktur förändras beroende på vattenhalt är svåra att studera eftersom många av de traditioProton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) was used to study the self-diffusion of water in porous systems that respond to a change in water content in order to elucidate the porous structure and the properties of the confined water. In the carbohydrate systems cellulose fibers and starch granules, water is free to move throughout the porous objects, albeit with a rate reduced from the value of the

This paper reports a comparison of soft and hard piezoceramic transducer materials used for ultrasonic particle trapping in a microfluidic bioanalytical platform. The investigation is made with the objective to obtain high acoustic forces with a minimum of temperature increase. Themperature is a critical parameter for bioassays and most often need to be kept below a certain level to allow handling

Popular Abstract in Swedish Azofärger är syntetiska kemikalier som används i stor utsträckning för att färga konsumtionsartiklar, t.ex. läder, textiler, mat, kosmetika. Dock kan ett fåtal av dessa färger reduktivt avspjälkas och till följd därav frigöra kancerogena aromatiska aminer. Av den orsaken har EU infört ett förbud i medlemsstaterna mot användning av potentiellt farliga azofärger i läder- Dyes are commercially indispensable and the expanding industry offers a complete palette of colors. Azo dyes constitute the largest chemical class of synthetic dyes because of their versatility, low price, and ease of production. These dyes may, however, pose health risk to humans due to formation of mutagenic/carcinogenic aromatic amines upon reductive cleavage of their azo groups (-N=N-). Theref
