Considerable efforts have been recently devoted to the task of small-scale modeling of crystal plasticity at a reasonable computational cost. A fully detailed description of plastic flows incrystals is possible only by molecular dynamics (MD) approaches, which accurately representmicromechanisms of plastic response while relying minimally on phenomenology.

Globally 884 million people depend on unsafe drinking water, of which 159 million depend on untreated surface water (WHO, 2017). In Tanzania 44% of the popula- tion lack access to safe drinking water (WaterAid, 2017). Women and children in the small city of Chonyonyo, in Karagwe district are walking several hours a day for contaminated drinking water. According to a study, carried out in Tanzani

Horizon Europe has identified climate-neutral and smart cities as one of its mission areas. In Sweden, the national innovation programme Viable Cities has set its sights on realising climate neutrality in cities by 2030. In both cases, a mission-oriented approach focused on citizens as drivers of climate action represents a pathway to success. However, citizen involvement has been presented as an

The international relations has been marked with the increased intra state ethnic conflicts which are able to cause huge humanitarian disasters and harbour instability and various threats for the international community. As a result, conflict resolution as a long term process combining social, economic and political levels and activities concerning structural change has been advocated in recent ye

This thesis seeks to examine the transition of three Swedish municipal archives from the old general archive classification system (allmänna arkivschemat) to a new process based classification system (verksamhetsbaserad arkivredovisning). Regulations issued by the Swedish National Archives are not binding for local government archives, and it is therefore free for the municipal archives to decide

My intention with this project was to investigate the possibilities and difficulties with working in Vietnam as a Scandinavian designer. As a means of the investigation I was going to develop products in collaborations with local handicraft manufacturers using locally sourced materials. In the end it turned out to be so much more than only investigating possibilities and difficulties; it turned o

Diagnosis of first paroxysmal events at the children’s ER at a Swedish Regional hospital – including a one year follow up Background First epileptic seizures can be difficult to diagnose properly as there are many differential diagnoses including provoked seizures, febrile seizures, syncope, breath holding spells and psychogenic seizures. Many articles highlight the importance of a diligent medi

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to examine the role of internal control implementation that plays in the enterprises’ operation. We evaluate it from the Head of Finance (as Director of Finance in the enterprises) perspective and see whether adequate internal control implementation is important for the enterprises’ operation. Methodology: This thesis is based on a qualitative and deductiv

Educational reforms including community-based educational initiatives maintain crucial roles in the processes of democratization in the Middle East. The patterns of reform are diverse and reflect domestic factors as well as varying linkages to global forces. Among the factors driving and defining the effects of reform we find: 1.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Abstract Hydrogen embrittlement is a degradation process of mechanical/tribological properties (toughness, wear etc.) of mating steel surfaces. This is caused by the presence and interaction of hydrogen with applied stresses. Therefore, it is important to quantify the hydrogen content which could be dissolved under applied stresses in steel.

Background: Hydroxyethyl starches have been withdrawn from the European market. In Sweden, dextran was the main colloid until 2000, when starches overtook the market. After the recent 6S-trial, it was suggested that dextran could be reinstituted, but concerns for greater coagulopathy, bleeding and anaphylaxis still remain. An experimental study from our department indicated that isovolemic substitBackground: Hydroxyethyl starches have been withdrawn from the European market.

Popular Abstract in English Malnutrition is one of the problems affecting many developing countries, sometimes leading to disease and death. Complementary foods, especially infant porridges prepared by families in rural areas, are based on plants (cereals, roots and tubers). These porridges are mainly composed of starch, and when mixed with hot water the starch gelatinizes and swells, resulting inChild malnutrition is one of the major health problems in many developing countries and involves many sectors such as health, agriculture and research. Malnutrition in infants usually develops during the introduction of complementary foods, due to a deficit of nutrients, low energy density and the poor bioavailability of vitamins and minerals leading, in turn, to an increase in the risk of disease

From local produce to dining table utensils The region of Istria, a renowned touristic destination, is often depicted through superficial and non-functional souvenirs, designed and mass-produced far from the place they claim to represent. To challenge and contrast this situation, “in tola!” was developed. It is a collection of utensils for shared dining moments: picks inspired by olive leaves, spr
