An important aspect of higher education is to educate students who can manage complex relationships and solve complex problems. Teachers need to be able to evaluate course content with regard to complexity, as well as evaluate students’ ability to assimilate complex content and express it in the form of a learning outcome. One model for evaluating complexity is the Structure of Observed Learning O

Direct conversion receivers are widely used for full duplex mobile radio communication systems. This paper describes a novel SAW-less single-ended RF amplifier connected to a single-ended mixer with a feedback loop that suppresses the second-order distortion from TX cross modulation of the LO-leakage as well as DC-offset at the mixer output. In Monte Carlo simulations the design achieves +47 dBm m

Avhandlingens ämne är osannolika händelser i den realistiska romanen. Den övergripande idén är att realismen utmärks av att osannolika händelser hanteras utifrån ett dubbelt perspektiv: både som ett existentiellt och ett estetiskt bekymmer. Som ett existentiellt bekymmer representerar den narrativa fiktionsberättelsens osannolika händelser den ständigt närvarande möjligheten att en oförutsägbar ocThis thesis deals with improbable events in the realistic novel. The overarchingidea is that realism is distinguished by dealing with improbable events on thebasis of a double perspective: both as an existential and as an aesthetic problem.As an existential problem the improbable events of narrative fiction representthe constantly present possibility of an unexpected and unforeseen event suddenly

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of native milk fat globule size on the aeration of high fat dairy products with regard to maximum firmness time, gas inclusion and foam stability. The results showed that whipping time to maximum firmness was inversely proportional to mean fat globule size for both unhomogenised and slightly homogenised (2 MPa) creams. Additionally, incr

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a global pandemic. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified >100 genetic variants associated with the disease, including a common variant in the melatonin receptor 1 b gene (MTNR1B). Here, we demonstrate increased MTNR1B expression in human islets from risk G-allele carriers, which likely leads to a reduction in insulin release, increasing T2D risk. Accordin

En diskussion av filmmusikkompositören Bernard Herrmanns musik. Herrmann, som är mest känd för sitt samarbete med Orson Welles och Alfred Hitchcock, skapade en musik som mer än andra kompositörer satte sin unika prägel på de projekt han var involverad i. Texten diskuterar hans sätt a skapa ett samspel mellan ljud och bild genom att bryta upp musikens ledmotiv i mindre, kortare, fraser, för att på

Texten är en diskussion av kompositionella aspekter på film med centralperspektivet som utgångspunkt. Detta jämförs med parallellperspektivet som kom till Europa från framförallt Japan och kom att utgöra ett dominerande inflytande på den europeiska modernismen inom måleriet. Vid sidan om rent kompositionella aspekter diskuteras i texten zoom estetiken och den ursprungligen oavsiktliga perspektivfö

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have been developed mostly for the specific binding of the target, mimicking the function of antibodies. In addition to these " plastic antibodies," completely synthetic catalysts have been created that mimic substrate conversion by enzymes. In this chapter, the following examples will be presented: (1) an esterolytic MIP for phenolic esters that is prepared u

This report has been translated from Swedish and adapted for an international audience. The original report, Leadership for quality in doctoral education1, was commissioned by the Association of Swedish Higher Education. Here we describe and discuss doctoral education as policy, practice and as an object of knowledge, and highlight a number of questions that are important for the management and le

A discussion of inherent limitations in early live television, the methods necessary in live productions and aesthetic consequences that live TV resulted in.

The text emphasizes aesthetics in post war American film and is more precisely a study of directors, which started their career within live television and made a transition to cinema. The influence of their television background on their films is central to the text. Contributing factors in this context are changes in the overall technology within TV, changes from live productions to the use of fi

Inside-out submitochondrial particles (IO-SMP) were isolated and purified from potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv.) tubers. When these IO-SMP were incubated with [γ32P]ATP more then 20 proteins became labelled as a result of phosphorylation. The 32P incorporation was stimulated by the oxidizing reagent ferricyanide. Except for a 17 kDa protein which was phosphorylated only in the absence of divalent
