This chapter is based on responses from 147 IHL and military ethics educators from around the world to a survey designed to elicit their views on the relationship between the teaching of IHL and ethics in military education. The study was initiated in response to discussions with colleagues teaching law and ethics which highlighted perceived gaps between the teaching of the subjects. The responses

Coordination of health care exists at many different levels and in many different forms. We describe the similarities and differences in coordination mechanisms among the Nordic countries. In some respects, the Nordic countries approach coordination problems in similar ways although differences exist. The overall pattern shows that Finland and Sweden have less country-wide coordination compared wi

A new strategy of multi-objective structural optimization is integrated into Austin-Moore prosthesis in order to improve its performance. The new resulting model is so-called Improved Austin-Moore. The topology optimization is considered as a conceptual design stage to sketch several kinds of hollow stems according to the daily loading cases. The shape optimization presents the detailed design sta

ALS is characterized by the degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons. In about 70% of patients with ALS the disease has an spinal onset, while about 30% of the patients have a bulbar onset.  Cognitive dysfunction and behavioral changes are seen in about 50% of the patients, and 15% develop frontotemporal dementia.  There is no single test that provides the ALS diagnosis. The diagnosis is base

In this study, Spatial Multi-Criteria Evaluation and the least cost path analysis were applied to find the optimal by-pass road alignment in the Tlokweng Planning Area in Botswana. One-At-a-Time sensitivity analysis and the statistical test for zero proportion were used to investigate the robustness of the entire model. Four alternative by-pass roads were produced stressing economic, environmental

This paper continues the discussion in a previous paper [Saeidpour and Wadsö doi:10.1016/j.cemconres.2016.02.003] where a clear effect of sorption hysteresis was seen in moisture diffusion coefficients for cement-based materials. Coefficients with vapor content as potential (Dv) had different values depending on whether the sample was in absorption or in desorption. In this paper we recalculate th

Spores of Curvularia lunata were immobilized in polyacrylamide granules and in calcium alginate beads (2–3 mm in diam.). Germination of the spores, initiated by the addition of nutrients, resulted in an even distribution of mycelium throughout the beads after 48 h. Such beads were used for the conversion of cortexolone to cortisol by steroid-11β-hydroxylation. In order to improve the steroid trans

This master thesis is written at the faculty of engineering at Lund University in collaboration with IKEA Industry. The aim is to analyze the potential in electricity production from excess wood biomass coming from production. The available biomass varies in form, quantity, size and moisture content. Various technologies, handling different kind of feedstock for electricity production were investi

The proportion of patients who die during or after surgery, otherwise known as the perioperative mortality rate (POMR), is a credible indicator of the safety and quality of operative care. Its accuracy and usefulness as a metric, however, particularly one that enables valid comparisons over time or between jurisdictions, has been limited by lack of a standardized approach to measurement and calcul

A search for a Higgs boson has been performed in the H -> WW -> l nu jj channel in 1.04 fb(-1) of pp collision data at root s = 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No significant excess of events is observed over the expected background and limits on the Higgs boson production cross section are derived for a Higgs boson mass in the range 240 GeV < m(H) < 600 GeV.
