In this paper I discuss two surprising facs in Swedish grammar, the presence of a particular active verb form, the supine, after auxiliary have in perfect and pluperfect, and the free word order found in the middle fielld of main clauses. The supine is not found in any other Germanic language, and is presumably to be seen as a result of a historical coincidence. The free word order in the middle f
The paper considers a problem of routing, protection and load balancing in the IP/MPLS network. A network design problem combining all these aspects is presented. Proportionally fair distribution of residual bandwidths on links is used for load balancing, and protection is achieved with failure-dependent backup paths. The efficiency of the proposed approach is tested by combining optimization and
One of the prototype compounds for metal-metal multiple bonding, the Re2Cl82- ion, has been studied theoretically using multiconfigurational quantum chemical methods. The molecular structure of the ground state has been determined. It is shown that the effective bond order of the Re-Re bond is close to three, due to the weakness of, in particular, the bond. The electronic spectrum has been calcula
Abstract in UndeterminedWe discuss the combination of a hybrid finite element approach and three-dimensional Voronoi-based mesh discretisations for electromechanically coupled problems. The fluxes, i.e. the stresses and electric displacements, are defined within the volume of the polygonal finite elements, whereas the displacements and electric potential are approximated on the boundaries of the e
Background: Asthma genetics has been extensively studied and many genes have been associated with the development or severity of this disease. In contrast, the genetic basis of allergic rhinitis (AR) has not been evaluated as extensively. It is well known that asthma is closely related with AR since a large proportion of individuals with asthma also present symptoms of AR, and patients with AR hav
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancerformen hos kvinnor i Sverige, men även män kan drabbas. Hos män är det dock en mycket ovanlig cancerform. I Sverige insjuknar cirka 40 män per år av bröstcancer jämfört med cirka 8000 kvinnor per år. Bröstcancer hos män och kvinnor är på många sätt lika. Till exempel är sjukdomstecknen desamma och visar sig oftast som en knöl eller knCancer is today a major healthcare problem worldwide. There are many forms of cancer, which is a genetic disease, believed to result from a multistep process with genetic and epigenetic changes accumulating over time. Breast cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer in women, while it is much more rare in men. Male breast cancer (MBC) exhibits both similarities and differences with female b
Several articles within the area of green chemistry often promote new techniques or products as 'green' or 'more environmentally benign' than their conventional counterpart although these articles often do not quantitatively assess the environmental performance. In order to do this, life cycle assessment (LCA) is a valuable methodology. However, on the planning stage, a full-scale LCA is considere
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been shown to activate the peripheral innate immune system and systemic inflammatory response, possibly through the central release of damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). Our main purpose was to gain an initial understanding of the peripheral mitochondrial response following TBI, and how this response could be utilized to determine cerebral mitochondrial
We present a fast algorithm for the calculation of elastostatic fields in two-dimensional assemblies of elastic grains, separated by sharp grain boundaries. The algorithm uses an integral equation approach, combined with the fast multipole method and recursive compression to resolve stress concentrations also very close to grain boundary junctions. Singular basis functions on analytic form are not
Popular Abstract in Swedish Dercums sjukdom är ovanlig sjukdom som kännetecknas av uttalad kronisk smärta (>3 månader) i fettväven, kombinerad med övervikt och ett antal mer diffusa associerade symptom, såsom trötthet och allmän sjukdomskänsla. Orsaken till sjukdomen är okänd. Smärtorna är ofta handikappande och de flesta prövade behandlingar, såsom traditionella smärtstillande, ger otillräcklig e
The purpose of this thesis is to explore whether access to justice in Guatemala can be provided for the Mayan population by the use of their own justice system and what the consequences of its application would be. Prohibiting factors are economical, geographical, linguistic, cultural and institutional in nature. It is clearly the indigenous people that suffer most from the lack of the basic right
Under början av 1900-talet införde alla nordiska länder, förutom Norge, en möjlighet för frihetsberövade kvinnor att medföra sitt spädbarn i anstalten under straffverkställigheten. Regleringarna grundades på arvsbiologiska aspekter, då det var vanligt att de små barnen fortfarande ammades av sina mödrar och de var beroende av modersmjölken för att överleva. Med tiden har dock regleringarnas syfte In the beginning of the 20th century all Nordic countries except Norway introduced a possibility for imprisoned women to bring their infants with them during their sentence. The legislation was considered necessary due to the fact that the infant still was breast-fed by their mother. Child psychologist and psychoanalysist John Bowlby (from Great Britain) developed the affiliation theory during th
According to the legislation for accident prevention and protection, which took affect January 1st 2004, all Swedish municipalities have to establish plans of actions for accident prevention and the fire service. Municipal risk analyses should constitute the foundations for these plans of actions. The purpose of this report is to describe and meet the requirements on municipal risk and vulnerabili
