To enhance the performance of gas turbine engines, high top-cycle temperatures are desired. However, the temperature is limited by current materials. To achieve the higher performance, and meanwhile maintain the metal temperatures of the combustors, vanes and blades below the allowable limits, sophisticated cooling techniques, such as impingement cooling, film cooling and convective internal cooli
1 The study was performed to clarify if apomorphine at the level of the rat corpus cavernosum can produce erectile responses or interfere with nerve-induced penile erection. 2 Apomorphine ( 10(-9) - 10(-4) M) exhibited a 10-fold higher potency to relax phenylephrine ( Phe)-than endothelin-1 ( ET-1)-induced contractions. Relaxant effects of apomorphine in Phe-activated corpus cavernosum did not cha
Ett antal flodskärningar undersöktes längs Logatafloden och dess omkringliggande områden för att ge en ökad förståelse om de senaste istiderna för denna del av världen. De påträffade sedimenten vittnade om en marin miljö efter en isframstöt och därefter en landhöjning som ledde till dagens flod- och tundralandskap. Det finns många teorier angående hur utbredd inlandsisen var över arktiska Sibirie
Under anaerobic condition the specific growth rate of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 on different sugars, was analyzed using spectrophotometry. Electron acceptor (fructose) supported cells to cope with poor energy recovery by re-oxidising the NADH, thus enabling ATP formation thru acetate production, while fermenting glucose via the phosphoketolase pathway (PKP) and simultaneously operating via E
In Switzerland the one-and-a-half-earner model where the father is the primary wage-earner working full-time and the woman is the secondary wage-earner working part-time while taking over the majority of care and housework responsibilities is predominant. This is discussed criti-cally as the normative and institutional context incentivises parents to adopt a division of labour that disadvantages w
Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are small DNA viruses that have evolved over millions of years and are well-adapted to humans. Persistent infections with HPVs, can result in cancer development. There are over 200 different HPV types that can be divided into high- and low risk types based on their ability to cause cancer. HPV16 is the most common high- risk type that accounts for more than 50 % of al
Den svenska demografin förändras och antalet invånare äldre än 64 år väntas öka de kommande åren. Dessutom har urbaniseringen förändrats något, inte minst efter pandemin, då utflyttningen från storstäder till mindre orter ökat. Ökad flexibilitet i många yrken och delvis ändrade levnadsmönster har således resulterat i ett delvis minskat lägesberoende. Sammantaget står fastighetsmarknaden inför föräThe purpose of this study is to investigate what urban life really is and if (and in that case also how) urban life may be created and affected, primarily during the asset management phase. The study is conducted from the landowner’s perspective. Furthermore, the study aims at exploring what consequences and impact urban life has on the attractiveness and value of a place. The study is based on a
Background: Mental health is a global public health issue. Mental health disorders can develop in anyone, but the prevalence is higher among refugees. Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS), aims to improve mental health and is commonly applied among persons from conflict-afflicted settings such as, refugees. There are several studies demonstrating the effectiveness of MHPSS but there
The aim achieved through this thesis was to ascertain how much the pollutions of black carbon (BC) from each European country systematically deviate from their expected values obtained by inverting a transport model. The model used is based on meteorological observations as well as black carbon values obtained in the past at different locations. It was achieved by fitting a linear regression model
This thesis analyzes the construction and reproduction of ideal motherhood discourse on the Chinese social media platform Red Note, focusing specifically on the discursive strategies of mum bloggers, user interactions, and the platform's influence in this process. Employing Fairclough's three-dimensional critical discourse analysis framework, the thesis analyzes the textual, discursive, an
Sexualbrott är en brottstyp som präglas av betydande bevissvårigheter. I många fall saknas teknisk bevisning eller vittnesiakttagelser, vilket innebär att domstolens bedömning i hög grad vilar på parternas muntliga utsagor. Dessutom präglas sexualbrott av ett lågt lagföringsutfall och ett stort mörkertal, vilket gör rättsområdet särskilt angeläget att undersöka. Frågan är vad detta beror på, och h
Utredningen om påföljder återfall och verkställighet lämnade genom sitt betänkande, SOU 2024:48, ett förslag om en ny tidsobestämd frihetsberövande påföljd med preventiv utformning som en del av arbetet mot återfallsbrottsligheten. Straffet kallas för säkerhetsstraff och ska gå att utdöma i ett begränsat antal kvalificerade situationer där behovet av samhällsskydd är särskilt påtagligt. PåföljdensThe Inquiry on Sanctions, Recidivism and Enforcement left a proposal to introduce a new sanction through their report SOU 2024:48. The sanction is an indefinite custodial sentence with a preventative structure and is meant to counteract recidivism and ensure protection of members of society against serious crime. The proposed sanction is called 'security penalty' in Swedish and is supposed
Detta arbete behandlar beskattningstidpunkten för derivatinstrument som säkrar skulder i utländsk valuta, enligt svensk rätt. Detta är intressant eftersom svenska företag i en globaliserad ekonomi exponeras mot valutarisker. Det råder dock osäkerheter om när säkringsderivatet ska beskattas. Uppsatsen analyserar därför hur den rättsliga regleringen i IL påverkar beskattningstidpunkten av värdeföränThis thesis examines the timing of taxation of derivatives hedging foreign-currency liabilities under Swedish law. The issue is interesting given the currency risk exposure of Swedish enterprises in a globalized economy, yet uncertainty persists as to when hedging derivatives are recognized as taxable income. The study analyses how the Swedish income tax law governs the recognition of value change
Denna uppsats undersöker hotspot-modellen i Grekland och dess förenlighet med de grundläggande rättigheter som fastställs i Europeiska konventionen om de mänskliga rättigheterna, närmare bestämt artiklarna 3 och 5. Hotspotsystemet infördes som en nödåtgärd som svar på det ökade antalet ankommande flyktingar vid EU:s yttre gränser under 2015-2016. I Grekland utvecklades det dock till en mer permane
This degree project combines computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations with experimental validation using a Büchi B-290 spray dryer to study particle deposition patterns during spray drying of a glycerol-based solution. The CFD simulations were performed using ANSYS Fluent with a monophasic air model, where the liquid phase was represented as discrete inert particles injected via the Disc
Child welfare investigations within social services are conducted in an organizational context characterized by high demands, limited resources, and growing administrative responsibilities. This study aims to highlight social workers’ experiences of organizational conditions in child welfare investigations and how these conditions are managed in practice. Semi-structured interviews were conducted
