The severe fouling common in food processing puts high demands on equipment cleaning. Adsorption of the protein betalactoglobulin to solid surfaces and its subsequent removal were followed using in situ ellipsometry. Most experiments were done in a stirred cuvette. Additionally, a flow cell was designed, which was employed in some work. The characteristics of the surface were shown to influence p

The use of multifilament fibres in composites is increasing. For usability, health effects and comfort it is important to include human aspects already in the development of materials and handling techniques. This paper presents a pilot experiment for designing further experiments on emission of particles and fibres from multifilament fibres during friction, bending and tensile forces.

In "Temperate Women. Educators, Entrepreneurs and Political Agents. The White Ribbon 1900–1930" the female Christian temperance union, the White Ribbon, is in focus. The organization’s ambition was to create a temperate and moral society, running a variety of philanthropic institutions and adult education, as well as non-alcohol restaurants. The aim of the thesis is to study the White Ribbon’s so

This paper deals with the Cauchy problem for hyperbolic so-called stiff systems in one space dimension with large relaxation term depending on a small parameter $delta$. In this case the symmetrizer for the modified symbol of the system, in general, depends on the wave number $omega$ and does not define a quadratic entropy. Therefore, the concept of stiff well-posedness of the Cauchy problem appea

Vad betyder massmedia för synen på sociala problem och socialpolitik? Författarna i denna bok tar ur olika vinklar upp massmediers betydelse när det gäller att forma allmänhetens och beslutsfattares världsbild, inte minst gäller det socialpolitiska brännande frågor som hur invandrare behandlas i press och tv eller hur man rapporterar om sociala problem som brottslighet. Men vilka är då de världsbi

With the theme of the research conference of the NNHSH network we want researchers, both at doctoral and post-doctoral level, to reflect on how health practices and health policies in the Nordic Welfare States are being transformed and have been transformed in the past. The Nordic countries are all, more or less, in the midst of a transformation from a social democratic health care system, based o

This paper focuses on the design and the evaluation of a single-phase claw-pole machine that is integrated into a fan drive. The inner stator of the machine is manufactured by using a rotational moulding technology, which allows a high integrability when using plastic matrix Soft Magnetic Mouldable Composite - (SMC)-C-2. The goal of the design is to develop a fan integrated drive where the major a

This dissertation is about bridging the gap between strategy and operations in organizations. To bridge that gap, processes are viewed not only from an operational perspective but also from conceptual, as well as a hierarchical perspectives. Bridging the gap can furthermore make organizational change initiatives more logical, and simplify the development and usage of needed performance measurement

I analyze the role of gender-sex-sexuality in school policies in Sweden; Canada; and Germany. Policies concerning young people’s negotiations of gender-sex-sexuality in schools draw on specific understandings of societal belonging and cohesion. Invariably such policies are part of national discourses regarding values and norms of gender and relationships; informed by concepts of ethnicized belongi

This report gives some information about the possibilities and problems, which have been observed during an excursion to Sweden, jointly organised by the Department of Comparative Education, University of Marburg and the Department of Education at the University of Hamburg. Two different forms can be discerned. One concerns the provision of school psychology in Gothenburg and the other relates to
