Since Markowitz presented the mean-variance model as a way of putting together a financial portfolio, variance has been the established measure of risk. Even though the measures of downside risk hasn’t gained the same attention as variance, it has been used in research for some time.

Power required to fly for a bird generally follows a U-shaped function of airspeed, with higher cost at both low and high speeds. Because power required increases with body mass faster than power available from flight muscles, larger birds may experience restricted flight speed ranges and climbing capabilities. Previous studies found limited flight performance in cormorants. Adapted for both fligh
Introduction: A grey-white matter ratio (GWR) < 1.10 at the basal ganglia level on head computed tomography (CT) previously predicted poor outcome with high specificity and moderate sensitivity in cardiac arrest patients. Data on GWR in reference populations are lacking. We explored GWR in a reference group to a cardiac arrest population and hypothesised that none would have GWR < 1.10. Methods: A

Cementproduktion står idag för en ansenlig andel av världens koldioxidutsläpp, vilket driver utvecklingen av bindemedel med lägre koldioxidutsläpp. För utsläppen i ett längre perspektiv är dock de nya bindemedlens beständighet absolut avgörande. De flesta nedbrytningsmekanismer är direkt relaterade till både fukt- och jontransport. Dessa processer har undersökts i många studier, men huvudsakligen Cement production is responsible for a significant portion of manmade CO2 emissions. This motivates the development of cementitious binders with a lower carbon footprint. Considering the emissions in a longer perspective, the durability of concrete structures is absolutely essential. Most degradation of concrete structures is closely related to both moisture transport and ion transport. Many studi
