Hybrid systems combining solid oxide fuel cells and gas turbines (SOFC/GT) have been extensively studied in recent years. They show very high theoretical electrical efficiencies and are considered as prime contenders for distributed generation. The addition of a CO2-capture system could make them even more attractive from an environmental perspective. In this study, a SOFC/GT configuration with an
OBJECTIVES: To investigate changes in the knee during the first year after acute rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of volumes of joint fluid (JF), bone marrow lesions (BMLs), and cartilage volume (VC), and cartilage thickness (ThCcAB) and cartilage surface area (AC). To identify factors associated with these changes. METHODS: Fifty-eight subjects (mean age 26 years, 16 women) with an
The authors have previously shown that one-particle calculations of X-ray spectra in simple metals give very different results depending on whether the core hole is taken into account or not. Guided by experiment and the dynamical theory of X-ray spectra developed by Nozieres and DeDominicis (ND) (1969) the authors have, however, also established the rule that rather realistic spectra can be obtai
Using the Edmonton protocol, a number of patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus have remained insulin-independent for prolonged periods of time. In spite of this success, transplantation of islets from cadaver donors will remain a therapy for very few patients owing to a lack of donors. Thus, if cell therapy should be widely available, it will require an unlimited source of cells to serve as a 'bi
Several hundred specimens of a tiny olenid trilobite, Ctenopyge ceciliae sp. nov., have been found in stinkstone nodules in the upper Cambrian Peltura scarabaeoides Zone in southern Sweden. This exceptionally spinose form is known only from disarticulated specimens, but is quite well preserved, and all growth stages are represented. The early ontogenetic stages are exceptionally small, the protasp
This volume brings together current linguistic research in a range of pre¬dominantly multilingual contexts. The authors draw on data from different languages and speech communities around the world, and together the chapters offer a broad picture of language acquisition, development and use – among both children and adults. While this is a valuable undertaking in its own right, the main reason for
It is investigated how the erasure efficiency for a single bit of data, stored using photon echoes, depends on the data writing time and data storage time. A comparative analysis of the erasure efficiency using a Ti:S laser system and a ring dye laser system is performed. The results clearly establish that the Ti:S laser system, which has a narrower line width than the dye laser system, could be u
The 19th century rise of history as an academic discipline set new standards for acceptable methods of writing history. This greatly influenced the opinions historians held of older historical works, such as the Historia de omnibus Gothorum Sueonumque regibus (History of all the Kings of the Goths and the Swedes) by the Swedish archbishop Johannes Magnus (1488-1544). The work has been criticised f
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways, affecting and disablingapproximately 300 million people worldwide. The inflammatory profile ischaracterized by infiltration of eosinophils, which are a rich source of factors thatare implicated in tissue remodeling. The chronic inflammatory response and theremodeled phenotype create a hospitable environment for secondary bacterialinfections.
Top-quark pair production is observed in lead-lead ((Formula presented)) collisions at (Formula presented) at the Large Hadron Collider with the ATLAS detector. The data sample was recorded in 2015 and 2018, amounting to an integrated luminosity of (Formula presented). Events with exactly one electron and one muon and at least two jets are selected. Top-quark pair production is measured with an ob
Syftet med studien har varit att undersöka om det finns speciella förändrande ögonblick i terapier, hur de förändrande ögonblicken i så fall märks och om det medvetet går att skapa förändrande ögonblick. Det är en kvalitativ studie och öppna intervjuer genomfördes med sex psykoterapeuter angående deras erfarenheter och upplevelser i ämnet. Samtliga psykoterapeuter hade någon gång upplevt speciellaAbstract The purpose of this study has been to investigate and describe if special changing moments exist in psychotherapy, how the moments experienced by the therapist and if the moments can be created intentionally by the therapist. This is a qualitative study of therapist experiences of special moments in their work as therapist and their description of these. Open interviews with six psychothe
This thesis studies ALM-institutions, archives, libraries and museums, together as well as separate entities, from the perspective of digital game preservation. How do game preservationists view ALM-institutions? Since digital games are part of our modern day cultural heritage, should they be part of general cultural heritage preservation strategies, and therefore the responsibility of ALM-institu
In the 1930s, a boat-grave was found in Sutton Hoo, England. Soon after, it was noted to have several similarities to swedish boat-grave from the region of Mälardalen, specifically Vendel and Valsgärde. These graves are from the same period as the Sutton Hoo ship burial, in Sweden known as the Vendel period (550-750 AD). Since then there has been an ongoing discussion concerning how the Sutton Hoo
Den senaste SOU:n som behandlade surrogatmoderskap menade att mater est-principen är en internationellt tvingande regel i svensk rätt. Utländska domar som, efter ett surrogatarrangemang, etablerar en tilltänkt moder som ett barns rättsliga förälder kan om så är fallet aldrig erkännas av svenska domstolar. Den enda möjligheten för en tilltänkt moder att erhålla rättsligt föräldraskap för ett barn äThe latest official government report on surrogacy arrangements stated that the mater est¬-principle is an overriding mandatory rule in Swedish law. A foreign judgement that establishes the intended mother as the legal parent of a child born through a surrogacy arrangement can therefore never be recognized by a Swedish court of law. The only way for an intended mother to become the legal mother of
Lasten i ett fjärrvärmenät varierar mycket över dygnet på grund av variationer i väder, utomhustemperatur och användning av tappvarmvatten. För att driften av produktionsenheter ska bli jämnare används ofta värmeackumulering, de flesta fjärrvärmenät har tillgång till en ackumulatortank som kan fyllas med varmt vatten när lasten är låg för att sedan pumpa ut det i nätet vid hög last. I det här proj
Purpose: We investigated the distribution of cannabinoid receptor subtypes 1 and 2 in the detrusor of different species and studied the effects of cannabinoid receptor 1 and 2 agonists on bladder function. Materials and Methods: Cannabinoid receptor 1 and 2 expression was studied with Western blot and immunohistochemistry in rat, monkey and human detrusors. Co-staining was done for markers of sens
