Intracranial Atherosclerosis in Medieval Scandinavia

In past human populations, atherosclerosis has been identified in mummies from different regions of the world, and from a range of chronological periods (for extensive reviews see Chapters 3 and 4). This current study from Sweden aims to contribute to the limited evidence for atherosclerosis associated with human skeletal remains by presenting examples of atherosclerosis in another part of the bod

Statens haverikommissions brandutredningar och deras genomslagskraft

This master’s thesis explores the impact from the fire investigations by the Swedish Accident Investigation Authority (SHK) on fire safety in Sweden. Through a mapping survey and a qualitative interview study, it is found that it is often difficult to identify clear connections between the investigations’ safety recommendations and real improvements to fire safety, due to long time spans and multi

Sonic passages : Sound as a sensory instrument for urban design

Following the successful first Urban Sound Symposium held at Ghent University in 2019, the second edition in 2021 had to face the challenges of the pandemic. The symposium turned this challenge into an opportunity for giving easier access to practitioners and experts from around the globe who are confronted with urban sound in their professional activities. It was organized simultaneously in Ghent

Lipoteichoic acid is the major cell wall component responsible for surface hydrophobicity of group A streptococci

The contribution of lipoteichoic acid (LTA) to the hydrophobic surface properties of group A streptococci was investigated in aqueous dextran-polyethylene glycol two-phase systems. Enzymatic digestions were performed to characterize the hydrophobic surface structure. The results obtained indicated that LTA is a major factor responsible for the hydrophobic character of the cell surface of group A s

Estimation of Extreme Climatic Thermal Actions in Concrete Structures

The temperature distribution in concrete structures varies due to annual and daily climate variations. Solar radiation, air temperature, wind speed and long-wave radiation affect the temperature in the structure and may cause longitudinal and transversal movements. If these movements are restrained, stresses and strains can be induced which may contribute to cracking. To be able to predict the lon
