This dissertation deals with the rental relations in Malmö between 1880 – 1925. This period witnessed extensive changes in Swedish society, including on the housing market. Industrialization and the rapid pace of urbanization created the basis for a housing market with a strong speculative element. Tenement housing made its breakthrough in Malmö around the turn of the 20th century. New housing are

This paper describes a model for mobile radio channels that includes consideration of directions of arrival and is thus suitable for simulations of the performance of wireless systems that use smart antennas. The model is specified for 13 different types of environments, covering macro- micro- and picocells. In this paper, a hierarchy of modeling concepts is described, as well as implementation as

Interreligious dialogue and conversion are two intriguing components in understanding religion. A reading of George Lindbeck constitutes the starting point for a discussion in this paper. The dominant reading of Lindbeck is that he claims that traditions absorb the world.

Almost five years later it is clear that the economic goals have not been

Popular Abstract in Swedish Teknisk textil är en bred benämning för textila material med användningsområden som inte är beklädnad eller där utseendemässiga krav oftast är av underordnad betydelse. På senare tid har dock designsynpunkter på tekniska textilprodukter kommit att alltmer uppmärksammas och detta belyses i kapitel 10 i avhandlingen. Teknisk textil är en nygammal industrigren som genomgåtIn this thesis the tensile strength, deformation, damage resistance and tear propagation for flexible composites are analysed. There are two essential requirements common to all flexible composites; namely, high tearing strength and good matrix-to-fabric adhesion. The interaction of fabric and matrix is complex. The most critical variables are those of yarn and fabric structure, the mechanical pro
