The present global environmental condition is a consequence of the increasing consumption of natural resources whose depletion exceeds what is physically possible to sustain in the long term. The construction sector is a considerable contributor to this resource depletion and sustainability is adopted in the form of the theory of ecological modernization. The implementation depends to varying exte
Popular Abstract in Swedish Mer än 75 % av energianvändningen i världen kommer idag från förbränning av fossila bränslen, biobränslen och avfall. Trots att alternativa energikällor är på framfart kommer förbränning stå för den största andelen av världens energianvändning även de kommande decennierna. Tyvärr medför förbränning flera negativa konsekvenser, såsom ökad koldioxidhalt i atmosfären och uLaser-induced incandescence, LII, is a laser-diagnostic technique that can be used to measure the volume fraction and the sizes of soot particles suspended in a gas, such as within a combustion process or in its exhausts. The technique is based on the facts that the time-decay of the radiation from laser-heated soot particles is directly related to the particle size in the probed volume, and that
Abstract This study tested the effect of environmental concentrations of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) sertraline on the life history of Daphnia magna and how individual-level responses could predict effects on population growth rate. Individual-level responses related to reproduction, growth and feeding were quantified in a 39-day bioassay and used in a life-table matrix. Alt
Bilden av Sverige som ett land utan grov organiserad brottslighet har successivt kommit att förändras. Grov organiserad brottslighet är inte längre något som svenskarna enbart associerar med södra Italien och Francis Ford Coppolas kultförklarade film Gudfadern. Som en del av denna utveckling inleddes under 2007 regeringens mobilisering mot grov organiserad brottslighet, vilken i huvudsak har kommiThe self-image of Sweden as a country without organized crime has gradually been changing. Organized crime is no longer something that the Swedes associate with southern Italy or Francis Ford Coppola’s cult film The Godfather. In 2007, the Swedish government initiated a mobilization against organized crime, which in essence came to mean two things. Firstly, the government founded an extensive coop
An emerging trend among manufacturing companies in Sweden is “offshoring of research and development (R&D)”, which means knowledge sourcing from low-cost countries. There is a substantial and growing pool of high-skilled people in low-cost countries, resulting in companies increasingly going to where the talent is. However, management and implications of R&D offshoring are not sufficiently
Popular science summary Spatial Memory Accuracy in Marsh tits (Poecile palustris) - an experimental study Food hoarding is a prevalent food protection behaviour in nature and it is performed by variety of animals including some mammals and birds. Two main food hoarding strategies have been observed among animals; larder hoarding and scatter hoarding. Larder hoarders aggregate all their food in
The rapid growth in hedge funds has triggered an international debate on the risks involved with their operations and potential negative effects on the financial system. The rise and fall of Long Term Capital Management - which prompted the US Federal Reserve to engineer a bail-out - still haunts the sector 10 years on. Simultaneously we have to admit that markets and investors benefit from a wide
A larger study surrounding innovation capital has taken place at Lund University in Sweden. The purpose of the study was to examine what meaning the management, research department and the financial analysts perceive in the reported information about innovation capital. The authors have found some prominent patterns that arose during the interviews. The different perspectives between the research

C-4 savanna grass species, Digitaria eriantha, Eragrostis lehmanniana and Panicum repens, were grown under optimum growth conditions with the aim of characterizing their above- and below-ground biomass allocation and the response of their gas exchange to changes in light intensity, CO2 concentration and leaf-to-air vapour pressure deficit gradient (D-l). Digitaria eriantha showed the largest above
BACKGROUND: Modern modular implants allow surgeons to mix different combinations of components within the same brand. From 1999 to 2012, the NexGen®-CR Option femoral component, together with a NexGen® Option Stemmed tibial plate (stemmed baseplate), which uses a short central stem, was the most-frequently used NexGen® combination in the Swedish Knee Arthroplasty Register. However, from 1999 to 20
Haemophilus influenzae är en bakterie som lever i människans luftvägar. Ofta orsakar bakterien ingen skada hos personen som bär den, men ibland orsakar H. influenzae luftvägsinfektioner såsom öroninflammation hos barn, akut försämring hos patienter med kroniskt obstruktiv luftvägssjukdom (KOL) samt lunginflammation. Bakterien kan också orsaka allvarliga infektioner såsom blodförgiftning och hjärnhHaemophilus influenzae is a common cause of respiratory tract infections such as acute otitis media (AOM), exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pneumonia. The species is subdivided into encapsulated and non-encapsulated strains, designated type a-f and nontypeable H. influenzae (NTHi), respectively. Prior to introduction of polysaccharide-protein conjugate vaccines aga
Due to advances in technology the amount of images from portable cameras has increased tremendously in recent years. Nowadays, most new mobile phones and cars have multiple cameras. Drones and other robots are often equipped with cameras as well. To be able to capture an image is not the same as to understand the content of it. Computer vision deals with the task of giving machines the ability to
Neurological disorders are listed as the second leading cause of death worldwide. Stroke and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are the major contributors to neurological disorders of deaths. Every year, around 14 million new people are affected by stoke and nearly 10 million new cases of AD are diagonosed worldwide. The number of deaths and disabilities due to these disorders have increased considerably.
Modern societies have come to depend on certain vital services, such as electricity, transportation and information, and a loss of their continuous supply would affect the modern citizen far more than his or her 19th century counterpart (Boin et al., 2003). Past disruptive events have, furthermore, highlighted the existence of dependencies between the systems that sustain these services, commonly
BACKGROUND: The risks of developmental language disorder (DLD) for both educational progress and socio-emotional development are well documented, but little is known about how children and young people with DLD experience and describe their language and communication. The need to complement experimental and quantitative studies with qualitative perspectives of the lived experience of individuals w
At the same time as our dependence on IT systems increases, the number of reports of problems caused by failures of critical IT systems has also increased. Today almost every system or service, e.g., water, power supply, transportation, is dependent on IT systems, and failure of these systems has serious and negative effects on society. In general, governmental organizations are responsible for de
