Background: Over the past decade, the miniaturisation of animal borne tags such as geolocators and GPS-transmitters has revolutionized our knowledge of the whereabouts of migratory species. Novel light-weight multi-sensor loggers (1.4g), which harbour sensors for measuring ambient light intensity, atmospheric pressure, temperature and acceleration, were fixed to two long-distance migrant bird spec
The reliable detection of neutrons in a harsh gamma-ray environment is an important aspect of establishing non-destructive methods for the characterization of spent nuclear fuel. In this study, we present results from extended in-situ monitoring of detector systems consisting of commercially available components: EJ-426, a 6Li-enriched solid-state scintillator material sensitive to thermal neutron
Existing researches on two-row film cooling mainly focused on double-jet film cooling. However, researches on the effects by combining different kinds of hole shapes on film cooling performance are quite limited. In order to improve the film cooling effectiveness, the three-dimensional numerical method is utilized to investigate the effects of a novel structure composed of two-row holes with diffe
The dynamics of insulin and chromium release from prelabelled rat pancreatic islet cells were studied by perifusion of cells supported in a column of Bio-Gel P-2 polyacrylamide beads. The column-perifused β cells released insulin in a biphasic pattern in response to 30 mmol/l D-glucose and in a monophasic pattern to 20 mmol/l L-arginine. Rat islet cells, first exposed
Background: Hand injuries occur at any age and cause disability in hand and arm function as well as impaired quality of life, but no study has focused on hand disability and quality of life in the elderly after a hand injury. Globally, the population over 60 years of age is expected to double by 2050 and more hand injuries are estimated among the elderly population. Our goal is to obtain more info
The production of charm jets in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of s=7 TeV was measured with the ALICE detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The measurement is based on a data sample corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 6.23 nb−1, collected using a minimum-bias trigger. Charm jets are identified by the presence of a D0 meson among their constituents. The D0 m
The objective in this research has been to predict the current and future moisture and temperature distribution in a concrete reactor containment, RC. The overall objective in this project was to create a model to be able to predict the moisture and temperature distribution in the concrete wall of the RC of a Pressurized Water Reactor, PWR. In addition, one objective was to design a model to simul
Background: It is well known that women suffer from negative consequences following breast cancer (BC) treatment and that their largely varying needs for rehabilitation are often unmet. Up to 43% of these women are at risk of developing chronic distress requiring complex interventions; however, how to early identify and meet these women's needs is unknown, leaving them with suboptimal chances of r
Fertilization is a common approach to increase or sustain soil fertility, but its impact on microbial biomass and community structure remains controversial, particularly in paddy soils. In this study, we investigated the effect of different long-term fertilization strategies, beginning in 1986, namely no fertilization, mineral fertilization, mineral fertilization combined with rice straw or chicke
Bixin is a carotenoid which is extracted from annatto (Bixa orellana). Its main application is as a coloring agent. It consists of conjugating double bonds with a carboxylic end, making it prone to degradation by oxygen, light and heat. This study investigates the light stability of bixin encapsulated with maltodextrin (MD), sucrose and whey by spray drying. MD was added with additives such as car
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by its debilitating epileptic seizures. There are generalized seizures, which affect the whole brain at once, and focal seizures, which start from one part of the brain. The most common focal epilepsy, is temporal lobe epilepsy representing almost 70% of all focal epilepsies. Around 30% of all patients are therapy refractory, therefore there is a h
En förutsättning för att ett beteende ska kriminaliseras är att det tänkta straffbudet avser ett identifierat och konkretiserat intresse som är skyddsvärt, det vill säga godtagbart. Ett godtagbart skyddsintresse kan definieras som det värde som skyddas i ett visst straffbud. Föreställningarna om skyddsintresse har systematisk betydelse för indelningen av brottstyper. Att finna arten av det intressA prerequisite for a behavior to be criminalized is that the intended criminal law provision applies to an identified and concretized interest that should be protected. An acceptable protective interest can be defined as the value protected in a particular criminal law provision. The concepts of protective interests have a systematic significance for the classification of the type of crime. Determ
Om den tilltalade inte har förstått innebörden av sin gärning och inte har kunnat anpassa sitt handlande därefter, anses personen vara otillräknelig. I de flesta andra rättsordningar innebär det att den tilltalade inte kan dömas för brott, men svensk rätt saknar ett krav på tillräknelighet sedan brottsbalken trädde i kraft 1965. Sverige intar en särställning genom att samtliga kan bli föremål för If the defendant has not understood the meaning of their act and has not been able to adapt their actions accordingly, the person is deemed legally non-imputable. In most other legal systems, this means that the defendant cannot be liable, but since the Criminal Code entered into force 1965, Swedish law lacks a demand for imputability. Sweden has a peculiar regulation on the matters and everyone c
Emissions of air pollutants from shipping in Europe result in about 50 000 premature deaths every year. Soot particles, also called black carbon, are particularly hazardous to human health when inhaled. The adverse health effects are especially a danger in coastal areas, but the particles can travel further away with the wind. These soot particles also have an effect on the climate. Fresh soot par
This degreework was initiated by a brief email send form the department of design science at Lund Institute of Technology, Lund University. It was an invitation from the company Reflectil Sverige AB about their interest to renew their selection of non-professional high visibility garment. The companies demand was to broaden their selection of nonprofessional high visibility garment. They wanted to
Is the management of Type 1 Diabetes best left to the medical sciences, or do the social sciences have a stake as well? In ‘Sweet Blood Surveillance,’ I push back against the perceived domination of scientific objectivity to make space for the subjective experience of diabetes in the maintenance of glucose levels through a collaboration with medical technical objects. To accomplish my task, I crea
