Problemformulering: Byggprocessen är idag långsam, kostsam och genererar stora mängder spill och utsläpp. För att kunna möta bostadsbehovet från den snabbt växande befolkningsmängden måste tekniken utvecklas, den måste bli snabbare och mer kostnadseffektiv. Med ny teknik där betongelement tillverkas genom automatiserad och datorstyrd 3D-printning kan eventuellt hela betongbyggnadsprocessen effektiQuestion formulation: The construction process today is slow, costly and generates large amounts of waste and emissions. In order to meet housing needs of the rapidly growing population in a sustainable way, the technology must evolve; it must be faster and more cost-effective. New technology, where concrete is manufactured by automated and computer-controlled 3D-printing, can possibly streamline

An electrochemical biosensor based on ZnO nanorods for potentiometric cholesterol determination is proposed. Hexagon-shaped ZnO nanorods were directly grown on a silver wire having a diameter of 250 mu m using low temperature aqueous chemical approach that produced ZnO nanorods with a diameter of 125250 nm and a length of similar to 1 mu m. Cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) was immobilized by a physical

Abstract in Uncoded languages Inspiracija za rad i problem(i) koji se radom oslovljava(ju): Ranija istraživanja poslijeratnih društava istakla su strukturalno nasilje sa pratećim procesima pomirenja. Autori su istakli važnost priča, ali se nisu fokusirali na priče o pomirenju niti su analizirali uvjete za pomirenje u poslijeratnim intervjuima. Ciljevi rada (naučni i/ili društveni): Cilj članka je Reason(s) for writing and research problem(s): Previous research on post-war society emphasized structural violence with subsequent reconciliation processes. Aims of the paper (scientific and/or social): Researchers have focused on the importance of narratives, but they have neither highlighted narratives about reconciliation nor analyzed conditions for reconciliation in post-war interviews. One a

Aim High quality evidence of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survivors’ health-related quality of life (HRQoL) can measure the long-term impact of CA. The aim of this study was to critically appraise the evidence of psychometric quality and acceptability of measures used in the assessment of HRQoL in cardiac arrest survivors. Methods Systematic literature searches (2004–2017) and named autho

As travellers, we are usually aware that a map is not the territory it represents. However, as researchers, inquiring into practice, are we always aware of the domain within which that practice is situated? Descriptions of practice sometimes suggest that this is not the case. For example, do engineers actually believe that the models they develop and use are reflections of some reality? It is like

Från det vi föds är vi inställda på att lära. Vi iakttar människorna som omger oss och gör som de; vi lär oss tala, samspela, kommunicera. Vi lär genom att imitera. Drivkraften att lära genom efterbildning är något vi använder i retorikundervisningen; våra studenter utvecklar sina egna färdigheter i tal, skrift, läsning och lyssning genom att studera goda exempel och efterbilda dem. Principen kall

Artikeln behandlar den litauisk-amerikanske folkrättsjuristen Jacob Robinsons (1889-1977; på litauiska: Jokūbas Robinzonas) bidrag till folkrättsdoktrin och folkrättspraxis

An unmanned ship can be designed without considering humancomfort, and can thus be constructed lighter, smaller and less expensive.It can carry out missions in rough terrain or be in areaswhere it would be dangerous for a human to operate. By not havingto support a crew, lengthy missions can be accepted, enabling, e.g.reconnaissance missions, or reducing emissions by lowering thespeed.Breakthrough

This dissertation aims at advancing the knowledge about the role of the labour market in the process of the technology-induced economic transformation, taking into account the variety of factors involved at micro-, meso-, and macro-levels of the economy and at different geographical scales. Empirically, the dissertation investigates the co-evolutionary dynamics of industrial restructuring and work

In 1822 the Parliament of the United Kingdom passed The Cruel Treatment of Cattle Act, which today is considered to be an important forerunner to modern animal protection and anti-cruelty legislation. However, the new Enlightenment attitudes to animals stemmed from an overly anthropocentric perception of the natural world and the place of the human animal in it. At the heart of the movement agains

BACKGROUND: Iodine has been suggested to protect against breast cancer, but there are no epidemiologic studies on individual risk. An interesting finding is that in areas where the exposure to both selenium and iodine are high (e.g., Japan), the risk of breast cancer is lower than in areas where selenium is high and iodine low (e.g., United States), or in areas where both are low (e.g., Northern E

Introduction: Fetal growth restriction is associated with adverse perinatal outcome and the clinical management of these pregnancies is a challenge. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) to predict adverse perinatal outcome in high-risk pregnancies in the third trimester. Another aim was to study whether the CPR has better predictive value than its

Technology of 3D printing is opening the possibility for small-scale production in quantities between ten and several hundred pieces. The technology of adding material enables the production of complex and integrated functional concepts in a single-pass process, which consequently potentially reduces the need for assembly operations. Design approaches and manufacturing processing are not mastered
