Experience of abuse as a life event is common among men in a psychiatric care context. Systematically charting life events and abuse plays a central role within psychiatric and mental health nursing and could improve the understanding of the patient’s life situation. The aim of the study was to explore the life course of male psychiatric patients who had experienced domestic abuse as victims and a

The use and significance of timber structures are on the rise, especially thanks to crosslaminated timber (CLT). This engineered wood product is manufactured by stacking multiple layers of wood lamellae, each oriented perpendicularly to the one below it, and then bonding them with adhesives to form a floor or wall panel. Timber, as a building material, presents potential environmental benefits ove

This chapter reviews methanol's properties as a fuel for marine use in general terms and then specifically for combustion engines and fuel cells. It discusses the different engine technologies being either investigated or demonstrated that allow methanol to be used in marine engines. Their potential in terms of power density, emissions, and efficiency, as well as their maturity are reviewed. The e

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) has gained recent popularity mainly due to its attractive nutritional profile and its ability to grow under extreme conditions such as salinity, acidity, drought, flooding, and frost as well as the functionality of its component. Starch is the main component of quinoa grain which constitutes up to 60% of the dry grain and plays a crucial role in the functional pr

A stochastic hierarchical model for the evolution of low grade gliomas is proposed. Starting with the description of cell motion using a piecewise diffusion Markov process (PDifMP) at the cellular level, we derive an equation for the density of the transition probability of this Markov process based on the generalised Fokker–Planck equation. Then, a macroscopic model is derived via parabolic limit

This chapter gives an account of Pufendorf’s discussion and use of the law of nations. It first outlines his distinctive contribution to contemporary discussions of the topic, namely his rejection rejection, against Grotius, of a specific “positive” law of nations distinct from the law of nature. Secondly it explains how this position relied on Pufendorf’s voluntarist conception of law as the comm

Over the last thirty years, suggestions for how to develop defence capability have developed rapidly. However, supporting theory and structured concept development lag behind. Despite this imbalance, countries need to continuously spend resources on defence development. This study identifies central challenges in relation to the scientific perspectives and approaches needed to support the developm

The application of technology to archaeology should be of great interest to many. In Chapter 1, entitled ‘Advancing Archaeological Research: the Contribution of Spatial Technologies’, Associate Professor Giacomo Landeschi of Lund University in Sweden, a specialist in archaeological computing, provides an overview of the main achievements gained through the use of new technologies in archaeology in

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

Let G be a finite group. We show that the order of the subgroup generated by coprime γk-commutators (respectively,δk- commutators) is bounded in terms of the size of the set of coprime γk-commutators (respectively, δk-commutators). This is in parallel with the classical theorem due to Turner-Smith that the words γk and δk are concise.
