Syftet med projektet är att teoretiskt utreda två frågeställningar med direktlimmat trägolv på betongunderlag. Första frågeställningen är i vilka fall det behövs ett extra fuktskydd under trägolv från AB Gustaf Kährs, för att undvika skador orsakade av byggfukt i underlag av normal husbyggnadsbetong. Andra frågeställningen är vilken ekvivalent uttorkningstid som behövs för byggfuktfri betong innan

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett centralt problem inom området datorseende är att utifrån bara ett antal bilder av föremål, återskapa formen av föremålet som avbildats. Samtidigt vill man även återskapa hur kameran rört sig mellan de olika bilderna tagits. Detta är det så kallade struktur och rörelse-problemet. I avhandlingen löses detta problem för olika typer av kameror samt olika typer av objektThis thesis revolves around the problem of solving the structure and motion problem in computer vision. This is the problem of reconstructing the world, the structure, from images taken by a number of cameras undergoing an unknown motion. Much of the thesis is centred on the problem of finding initial estimates of the structure and the motion using a small set of image data. These initial estimate

An aqueous two-phase system based on the two polymers poly(ethylene glycol) and dextran has been used for the fractionation of cellulase enzymes present in culture liquid obtained by fermentation with Trichoderma reesei. The activities of beta-glucosidase and glucanases were separated to high degree by using the two-phase systems for a counter-current distribution process in nine transfer steps. W

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna studie betonar att de mekanismer, som skapar tillväxt, inte nödvändigtvis är universella utan kan skilja sig åt mellan olika områden, beroende på vad som produceras och vilken teknik som används. Avhandlingen hävdar inledningsvis att ekonomisk tillväxt är den viktigaste enskilda faktor som påverkar individers inkomstnivå och att ökad produktivitet i sin tur är gruThis study shows that the mechanisms behind knowledge accumulation and the sources of productivity growth differ from industry to industry depending on what is produced and what technology is used. Although it is apparent to most researchers in the field that the only way to explain long-run growth in output per capita is through technological progress and accumulation of knowledge that counteract

Responses to isotonic quick releases of rabbit urinary bladder strips and rat portal veins activated by AC-stimulation and K+-high medium were studied. The AC stimulation was adjusted to give the same tension as th K+-contractures. Releases were performed at peak of the contractions (which was attained after 1.5-4.5 s AC-stimulation or 2-3 min in K+-high solution). The length response consisted of

Intracellular lipid-binding proteins contain a large binding cavity filled with water molecules. The role played by these water molecules in ligand binding is not well understood, but their energetic and dynamic properties must be important for protein function. Here, we use the magnetic relaxation dispersion (MRD) of the water 17O resonance to investigate the water molecules in the binding cavity

An automated high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method has been developed for measurement of 5-S-cysteinyl-DOPA in urine (DOPA = 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine). The urinary sample was injected into an HPLC boronate column. With a mobile phase of 0.1 M phosphate buffer containing 0.2 mM disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate (Na2EDTA) (pH 6.0) mixed with methanol (9:1), 5-S-cysteinyl-DOPA wa

Popular Abstract in Swedish Köpenhamnsevangeliariet skrevs och illuminerades i England omkring år 1000, och intar en viktig position i konsthistorien genom sina ikonografiska likheter med det 300 år äldre Lindisfarneevangeliariet. I föreliggande avhandling behandlas handskriften i sin helhet med avseende på dess framställning och senare historia, men den huvudsakliga analysen rör bildernas stilistThe subject of this thesis is the Copenhagen Gospel Book , written and illuminated in England c 970 with additions from c 1020. The thesis is divided into three main parts focusing on different aspects of the manuscript. The first part deals with problems concerning provenance, palæography, later additions and the physical architecture of the manuscript. The author questions the opinion that the m

By providing nest boxes, previous studies have shown that nest sites are in short supply and limit the populations of several small passerines, including the Great Tit Parus major, the Blue Tit P. caeruleus, and the Pied Flycatcher Ficedula hypoleuca. Can this influence their distribution over a range of small woodland patch sizes in a heterogeneous landscape? To investigate this, a study was cond

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common form of cardiac arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice, accounting. Recent findings highlight the need for better characterisation of the arrhythmia in each patient, in order to improve patient treatment. The main objective of this work was to characterise atrial electrophysiology with respect to AF by means of non-invasively obtained data. Spectra

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen utgår från den förändring som ägt rum i Europa det senaste decenniet, med skiftet från ”welfare” till ”workfare” eller aktiveringspolitik. Vissa forskare hävdar att denna politik är den enda möjligheten till inklusion i arbetsmarknaden, för dem som är exkluderade. Andra hävdar att endast den universella välfärdsstaten kan leda till det resultatet. AvhandlinThe thesis aims to discuss if activation policies can support the inclusion of immigrant women and men into the Swedish labour market.A paradigmatic change in welfare policies has taken place in Europe during the last decade with the shift from welfare to workfare or activation policies. Some researchers claim that, for those excluded from the labour force, activation policies are the only way to
