Popular Abstract in Swedish Människors sätt att visualisera objekt bygger på en del underliggande principer som man kanske inte alltid reflekterar över. Det faktum att vi har just två ögon gör det till exempel möjligt för oss att avgöra på vilket avstånd ett objekt befinner sig. Detta kallas för parallaxeffekten. Kameror, som bara har ett "öga", saknar denna förmåga, vilket försvårar avbildande mäLaser sheet imaging, also known as planar laser imaging, is one of the most versatile optical imaging techniques known and is frequently applied in several different domains. It furthermore constitutes the basis for a variety of other 2D methods, in turn allowing visualization of e.g. velocity, particle size, species concentration and temperature. However, when applied on turbid, light scattering

Background: In 2014 the Swedish government assigned to The Public Health Agency of Sweden to conduct studies to evaluate optimal use of existing antibiotic agents. The aim is to optimize drug use and dosing regimens to improve the clinical efficacy. The present study was selected following a structured prioritizing process by independent experts. Methods: This phase IV study is a randomized, open-

The day Faraday moved a magnet in and out of a wire loop and detected the time-varying magnetic field, the first wireless transmitter / receiver system was created and the world was changed forever. However, it took almost fifty years for Heinrich Hertz to use Maxwell's equations and Faraday's insights in his professorship at Karlsruhe to create the first electromagnetic wireless communication sys

Popular Abstract in English Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a homopolymer belonging to the family of biopolyesters, polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) produced by different bacteria and archaea as intracellular granules often under conditions of metabolic stress due to a limited supply of essential nutrients. The properties of the PHAs are similar to those of polyethylene and polypropylene and can hence repPolyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a homopolymer belonging to the family of biopolyesters, polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) produced by different bacteria and archaea as intracellular granules often under conditions of metabolic stress due to a limited supply of essential nutrients. The properties of the PHAs are similar to those of polyethylene and polypropylene and can hence replace these fossil based poly

This article reviews the interrelationships of tourism and climate change from a mitigation perspective. Tourism is an increasingly important part of the global economy that is dependent on the annual movement of billions of travelers, often over large distances. The current contribution of the tourism sector to global climate change is reliably established at approximately 5% of CO2 emissions, th

1 Exercise in Remote Sensing, Geomorphology, Ecology and Development Geography based on Google Earth Ulrik Mårtensson VT2013 1. Aims and objectives The World Bank and UN introduced the concept of State of the Environment Report (SOER) on their agendas about 30 years ago. The SOER is produced by national governments and includes descriptions of the current situation, issues and plans for future dev

OBJECTIVE: People with disabilities find it harder to enter the labour market than people without disabilities and those with a mental illness are, in relation to people with other disabilities, employed at an essentially lower extent. Many are effectively helped by the vocational rehabilitation model Individual Placement and Support (IPS), but there are still many individuals left in undesired un

The development of strategies for dissolution and regeneration of cellulose constitutes an increasingly active research field due to the direct relevance for many production processes and applications. A wide variety of suitable solvents for cellulose are already available. However, cellulose solvents are of highly different nature reflecting the great challenges in the understanding of the subtle

Machine learning has the potential to improve processes and revolutionizeeconomies on a global level and that is also true for the construction indus-try. Machine learning has started to get attention in recent years as computerpower have increased and the cost has reduced. The purpose with machinelearning is train an algorithm to process large quantities of data for essentialinformation. This can

The increase of brownification in surface waters has been a problem for rivers and lakes from the northern hemisphere. The main factors of this water brownification are the increase of dissolved organic matter and iron in water bodies. This study aims to assess the contribution of groundwater flow and surface flow from Bolmsö Island to the water balance of Lake Bolmen, Sweden. This assessment help

It is widely accepted that nancial mark behaviour is characterized by periodicity. However, in academia and practice financial markets are often modeled as time consistent, resulting in static investment strategies that are assumed to be ecient. This has great implications on investors' allocation decisions and in valuation of risks and performances. In this thesis we consider different risk f

High-pressure homogenizers (HPHs) are used to create sub-micron emulsions in low-viscosity fluids. As the flow in a real HPH is very extreme, with gaps ranging from 10 to 100 pm and high velocities, it is almost impossible to visualize the drop break-up process. In this study a plastic scale model of a HPH was made, allowing the visualization of drop deformation and break-up. Great care was taken

Light pipes offer a passive way to bring daylight inside deep buildings, such as agricultural buildings. However, the lack of reliable performance predictability methods for light pipes represents a major obstacle preventing their widespread use. This paper evaluates a simulation approach for performance prediction and identifies key light pipe design parameters affecting their daylight transmissi

BACKGROUND: Treatment for breast cancer poses major challenges and leads to a variety of side-effects and problems that affect life for a long time. Experiences and symptoms vary, and research indicates a lack of structures for ensuring individualized rehabilitation. This qualitative focus group study aims to explore the experience of women with BC after participating in a complex randomized contr

IKEA is a product developing company, known for putting packaging and logistics issues at the top of its agenda. At IKEA, the product and the packaging are developed concurrently with the aim of lowering the total cost from the supplier to the customer. During the years 2002 to 2004, a pckaging redesign project was conducted at IKEA. The purpose of the project was to redesign the packaging for an

The authors illustrate the difficulties involved in obtaining a valid statistical significance in clinical studies especially when the prior probability of the hypothesis under scrutiny is low. Since the prior probability of a research hypothesis is directly related to its scientific plausibility, the commonly used frequentist statistics, which does not take into account this probability, is parti

Polyproline type II stretches are somewhat rare on proteins. The backbone of this secondary structural element folds to a triangular form instead of the normal alpha -helix with 3.6 residues per turn. It is a very challenging task to try to detect them computationally from protein sequence. Here, we have studied the preprocessing phase in particular, which is important for any machine learning met

The aim of this study was to investigate from the perspective of formal carers the care given to people aged 65 and over, who are cared for in their own homes by informal care. Thirty-three district nurses (DNs) and 20 home service assistants in a municipality with 13500 inhabitants (over 65 years old), were interviewed about the location of care recipients and 398 care recipients were located. Mo

The objective of this article is to review guidelines that address counselling in the context of genetic testing in order to summarise what aspects of counselling they consider most important, and to examine how they construct the ideal of genetic counselling. Guidelines were collected by examining the websites of different international professional, political, ethical and patient organisations,
