This study focuses on modelling the cutting resistance as a function of the workpiece material properties. Thus, for a workpiece material the cutting resistance may be predicted from the material properties without using any experiments. The cutting resistance may then be used to determine the cutting forces, data which in turn may be used to determine appropriate process parameters and select cut

This article documents new sightings of the leafcutting bee Megachile lagopoda (L.) in Åhus, Scania, Sweden on cotton thistle in a pine forest. The importance of areas of undeveloped land as habitat for rare species and the dispersal range of the bee are discussed.

Wireless networked embedded systems are becoming increasingly important in a wide area of technical fields. In this tutorial paper we present recent results on the design of these systems and their use in control applications, that have been developed within the project Reconfigurable Ubiquitous Networked Embedded Systems (RUNES). RUNES is a European Integrated Project with the aim to control comp

This thesis, which is based on four original papers, deals with human dendritic cells (DCs) in immunity and allergy. DCs play a key role in the regulation of immune responses by acting as the sentinels of the immune system, specialized in the uptake of a diverse range of antigens. These cells migrate to local lymph nodes and become highly efficient in inducing T cell proliferation, thus inducing a

Opera improvisation at The Malmö Academy of Music has been a pedagogical and artistic experiment. This is the final account concerning this pedagogical and artistic research project. Singers who are studying classical singing at the bachelor and master programmes of theacademy have participated. The account includes historical and theoretical reflections on the subject and comments on the work in

A combined experimental and theoretical effort has been made to identify the most important contributors to equilibrium ionization in the post-flame gas. In the past, nitric oxide (NO) has always been assumed to be the main electron donor in the compressed hot post-flame gases. However, correlations observed between the amount of NO in the exhaust gases and the current amplitude may be deceiving d

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen behandlar substitutionsprincipen som den är formulerad i utbytesregeln i lagen om kemiska produkter. Denna lagregel tolkas med utgångspunkt i dess kontext i kemikalielagstiftningen. I avhandlingen klarläggs vad utbytesregeln innebär för den som hanterar kemikalier. Myndigheternas förvaltningsrättsliga befogenheter att genomdriva substitutionsprincipen underThe principle of substitution is, in national and international contexts, regarded as an important instrument when striving towards sustainable development and sustainable handling of chemicals.This thesis deals with the principle as it is formulated in the Swedish Act of Chemical Products. The implementation of this rule of substitution is studied from several aspects. The rule of substitution is

De multilaterala handelsförhandlingarna har bidragit till att sänka EU:s tullar till historiskt låga nivåer. Flera kvantitativa handelshinder har tagits bort och den hämmande effekten av andra icke-tariffära hinder, såsom tekniska standarder, har också minskat, delvis som en följd av införandet av den europeiska inre marknaden. Det återstår dock betydande handelshinder av en mer administrativ kara
