The new challenge of the Gas Turbine industry is to develop new technologies for meeting electricity demand growth and reducing harmful emissions. Thus, a better understanding of the combustion phenomenon and an improvement in simulation capabilities are needed. In this paper, we present a new technique that is computationally efficient, for capturing the thermo-acoustic waves in low Mach number c

A number of researchers have attempted to define and encapsulate the essence of ‘critical research’. It has been suggested to encompass interpretation of social phenomena, and seeks for understandings that could support efforts to bring about beneficial change. It has been further suggested that such work is characterised by: concern with substantive social issues (e.g. power, values); foundation

Beskrivning ges av analysteknik (protoninducerad röntgenstrålning), provtagningsteknik (kaskadimpaktor av Battelle-typ) och provberedningsteknik. Utfört arbete i form av provbehandlingsförbättringar, konstruktion och förbättring av provtagare, bestämning av lämpliga analysparametrar samt uppbyggnad av ett dataprogramsystem presenteras. Sammanställning av resultat i form av beräknade medelvärden i

The main concern of this paper is the joint utilization of new methods of research and analysis in the study of value. 40 persons, varying from age 20 to 70 and from different professional domains were studies by the use of a three-images technique inspired by Murray´s TAT. The aim was to unveil the implicit dimensions of work related values. Three analytical methods (content analysis, lexical ana

Projektet har haft sitt största fokus vid att göra en djuplodande rättsutredning för att därmed kunna ange konkreta förslag på praktiskt användbara rättsliga lösningar för tillgängliggörande av öppna datakällor. Två tydliga förslag förs fram: 1. Riktlinjer för vidareutnyttjande av handlingar som finns hos myndigheten (datapolicy); och 2. En öppen licens för vidareutnyttjande av information från

In 1975 Mozambique attained its independence from Portugal, but it was only in 1992 with the establishment of a peace agreement after the extended civil war that the country was able to initiate its development process including the undertaking of research and development (R & D) efforts. Government and international cooperation provided the support for the R & D programmes and projects, m

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vilket lands domstolar är behöriga att lösa tvister som kan uppkomma till följd av elektroniska avtal där parterna hör hemma i olika länder? Vilket lands lag skall domstolen använda? Även om en svensk domstol är behörig är det inte säkert att den skall använda svensk lag. Dessa frågor sorterar inom ett ämnesområde som heter interationell privat- och processrätt. I avhanThis study addresses some of the private international law perspectives on electronic commerce, namely the matters of jurisdiction and choice of law. Electronic commerce is based on the formation of contracts, and when there are contracts, questions regarding legal issues arise. A distinctive trait of electronic business is that its activities are not bound by geographic borders in a traditional s

Anomi är ett centralt rättssociologiskt begrepp introducerat av Émile Durkheim (1858-1917) som beskriver ett tillstånd av oklarhet och normlöshet som överförs på individen vilket får denne att känna otillfredsställelse. Identifieringen av anomi indikerar rättsliga förändringsprocesser och tydliggör samtidens rättskultur när mönster bryts. Kränkningsersättning, s.k. rent ideellt skadestånd, som akt

In this paper we present a novel method for predictive coding with application to transmission of speech over packet-switched networks. Our method uses multiplexing to distribute a part of the information about a segment of each speech signal in several data packets while keeping the data packet rate and payload for that part of the information unchanged. We investigate three multiplexing schemes:

Objectives. To assess waiting times for three groups of orthopaedic patients in Sweden and to identify factors explaining variations in waiting time. Also examined were factors associated with patients' perceptions that waiting times were too long. Design. Retrospective study. Setting and study participants. Patients from orthopaedic units at 10 Swedish hospitals participated in the study. A quest

In 2000 the European Council agreed on the so called ‘Lisbon Strategy’, the purpose of which is to make the European Union the strongest and most competitive economy in the world and also to fight unemployment and secure social welfare systems. One year later, in 2001, an ‘environmental dimension’ was supplemented to the Lisbon Strategy at the Council meeting in Gothenburg. An ‘EU Strategy for Sus

This paper describes the development of a fuzzy inference system (FIS) for emulating an analog joystick using an inductive tongue-computer interface. The principle of operation of the interface and the inductive sensors signals are described. The FIS receives sensor signals and output the Cartesian position of the virtual joystick, which can be used to control the mouse pointer in a personal compu

Purpose: The knowledge about young adults who have lost a parent to cancer is limited, and to reach a broader understanding about this group, this study used the Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement (Stroebe and Schut, 1999) as a theoretical framework. The purpose of this study was to describe loss- and restoration-oriented bereavement stressors and psychosocial wellbeing of young adults

Eye data quality varies greatly with the eyetracking system, the individual characteristics of participants, the recording environment, and the operator. The quality of the signal has important repercussions for which eye movement measures are valid, and what conclusions can be drawn from them. Reading research often has high demands in terms of spatial precision and accuracy. Reliably detecting e
