After a tank has been exposed to crash violence, or an external fire, it might, in some situations, be judged dangerous to move the vessel due to the risk of a sudden tank rupture. Therefore, Swedish rescue services have a long history of using rifles to penetrate and therefore depressurize the vessels. In this paper, some first steps on providing guidance on the selection of ammunition and requirAfter a tank has been exposed to crash violence, or an external fire, it might, in some situations, be judged dangerous to move the vessel due to the risk of a sudden tank rupture.

History shows that wars can be enormously disruptive of economic activity, especially international trade, national income, and global economic welfare. This article analyzes the impact on the European regions the Russian invasion of Ukraine using the largest and most updated multiregional input-output model for Europe. Two shocks, trade and inflation, and four alternative scenarios are simulated.

This paper discusses the growing regional socio-economic disparity in Sweden and investigates two regions’ power relationship with the economically and politically dominant Stockholm region: one region with a negative economic trajectory and the other with a positive economic development over 25 years. The conceptual framework is based on the topography/topology nexus, using the key concepts of ‘r

This paper discusses how housing for refugees is delt with by the authorities in rural Finland and Sweden. More precisely, we look at the services systems, rights and obligations which guide the choices of immigrants once they are allowed so stay, at least temporarily, in respective country. We apply the ‘conflicted policy processes’ approach in intergovernmental relations and Peter Scholten’s gov

Based on disappointing results of stem cell-based application in clinical trials for patients with critical limb ischemia, we hypothesized that the acidic environment might be the key factor limiting cell survival and function. In the present study, we used microdialysis to determine presence of acidosis and metabolic imbalance in critical ischemia. Moreover, we explored the effect of extracellula

Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) deposition and fertilization in boreal forests frequently reduces decomposition and soil respiration and enhances C storage in the topsoil. This enhancement of the C sink can be as strong as the aboveground biomass response to N additions and has implications for the global C cycle, but the mechanisms remain elusive. We hypothesized that this effect would be associated w

I defend the view that circular definitions can be useful and illuminating by focusing on the fitting-attitudes analysis of value. This definition states that an item has value if and only if it is a fitting target of attitudes. Good items are the fitting targets of positive attitudes, and bad items are the fitting targets of negative ones. I shall argue that a circular version of this definition,

Hydrological modeling realism is a central research question in hydrological studies. However, it is still a common practice to calibrate hydrological models using streamflow as a single hydrological variable, which can lead to large parameter uncertainty in hydrological simulations. To address this issue, this study employed a multi-variable calibration framework to reduce parameter uncertainty i

Transfer RNAs are adaptor molecules, which decode mRNA into protein and,thereby, play a central role in gene expression. During the maturation of a primarytRNA transcript, specific subsets of the four normal nucleosides adenosine,cytidine, guanosine, and uridine are modified. The formation of a modified nucleosidecan require more than one gene product and may involve several enzymaticsteps. In the

This article uses the steady-state calculation, based on the heating degree-day method, to verify dynamicenergy simulations and estimate a building's heating energy use in early design phases. Utilizing ClimateStudio through Rhinoceros/Grasshopper, this method acts as a control, ensuring reliability of the dynamicmodel's input/output. The simulations were conducted on a single building block with
