The reaction of the ligand [1-(4-((1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol-2(3H)-yl)methyl)benzyl)-1H-benzo[d][1, 2,3]triazole] (L) with CuCl2 in acetonitrile yields a dinuclear copper(II) complex [Cu2Cl4L2]center dot 2CH(3)CN (1.2CH3CN), which has been characterized by elemental analysis, powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction, thermal gravimetric analysis as well as IR, UV-Vis and EPR spectroscopy The cr

In this paper, we study and compare a number of subspace-based methods for determining the the number of sinusoids in noise. These are based on the subspace orthogonality and and shift-invariance properties that are known from the MUSIC (multiple signal classification) and ESPRIT frequency estimators. The method based on the orthogonality property has not previously appeared in the literature. We

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

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

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

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 school meals case study forms part of a collection led by the Research Consortium for School Health and Nutrition’s "Good Examples" Community of Practice. The School Meals Case Study of Sweden serves to document how the national school meals programme is organized, funded, and monitored throughout the country. The objectives of this case study include presenting an introduction to the country
