Public transport plays a major role in sustainable development of urban areas. However, transportation and infrastructure have to be efficient and in line with the wishes and demand of passengers. Local people have knowledge and experiences of the quality of services they want. When locals are involved, they include grass-root knowledge about ecology, environment, local livelihood problems and res

There is a considerable disagreement in the literature on the description of lifetime effects arising from core-valence transitions in solids. We calculate here Auger and radiative widths of shallow core levels in Li, Be, Na, Mg, and Al with use of principles consistent with dynamical theories of secondary-emission processes developed earlier. The lifetime has no simple relation to the usual self-

This thesis, which is based on four original papers, covers different aspects of the evolvement and development of proteomic platforms and the construction of human synthetic antibody libraries for the isolation of antibody reagents has been very central. There is an accelerating need for technologies capable of providing proteomic analysis of high sensitivity with good accuracy and an overall bro

This study analyzes the evolution of a ‘protected label of origin’ cluster in France with a particularly homogeneous and explicit institutional framework, which has given birth to significant incremental and radical changes in recent decades. By providing insights into these change processes and their institutional preconditions, the study provides an operational framework that disentangles differ

The article presents a newly developed model for the description and classification of machinability, based on comparison with a reference material. The model illustrates critical machinability properties in a polar diagram with 5 axes and poles. Each axis represents a behaviour or property, i.e. abrasiveness or hardness. The total machinability profile of a work material can then be outlined by g

To improve testability of integrated circuits against manufacturing defects, and to better handle the complexity of modern designs during debugging and characterization, it is common to embed testing, debugging, configuration, and monitoring features (called on-chip instruments) within the chip. IEEE P1687 proposes a flexible network for accessing and operating such on-chip instruments from outsid

Unanticipated procurement costs due to changes in input factors’ market prices and exchange rates are an increasing issue for manufacturers. A popular strategy is transferring these price increases to the supply chain. Based on 12 interviews and a follow-up study, we identified the main enablers for manufacturers to do so.

Konkurrensrättsprocessen är inte rimlig. Kommissionen har för stor makt och domstolarnas begräsade överprövning är inte tillräcklig. Påföljderna är att betrakta som straffrättsliga. Tilltron till myndigheters agerande förhindrar en pseudostraffrättslig process. Det är orimligt att skapa ett administrativt/straffrättsligt ”light” förfarande. Krav måste ställas på separation av makt mellan organ och
