Popular Abstract in Swedish För att kunna simulera de fysikaliska fenomen som pågår i förbränning, krävs även en beskrivning av den kinetik som ingår i förbränningsprocessen. För detta ändamål utvecklas kinetiska modeller. En kinetisk modell är en lista med kemiska reaktioner och reaktionshastighetsparametrar. Modellernas tillämpningsområde begränsas av de valideringsfall och de fysikaliska parameThe simulation of physical phenomena occurring in chemical reactors requires the description of the kinetics involved in the underlying combustion process. Kinetic models are developed for this purpose. A software package, BlueBellMouse, has been developed to facilitate a deeper automatization and ease of simulation, reduction and optimization of kinetic models. A kinetic model is made of a list o

Indoor temperatures in apartment blocks are often indirectly controlled by the outdoor temperature using a feedforward control loop, in which the radiator supply temperature is a function of the outdoor tem- perature. However, this control principle cannot take into account heat gains or losses caused by tenants, electrical appliances, the sun, air leakage, etc., which may result in uneven indoor Indoor temperatures in apartment blocks are often indirectly controlled by the outdoor temperature using a feedforward control loop, in which the radiator supply temperature is a function of the outdoor temperature.

Att arter har begränsade geografiska utbredningsområden beror ofta på en begränsad förmåga att anpassa sig till de miljöförhållanden som råder utanför arternas utbredningsgränser. På grund av pågående klimatförändringar kan dock de miljöförhållanden som råder inom arters nuvarande utbredningsområden komma att ändras inom den närmaste framtiden. För att undgå utrotning kommer därför många populatioThe fact that species have limited ranges is often due to a limited ability to adapt to the environmental conditions that occur outside their geographic ranges. However, due to ongoing climate change, the environmental conditions within species’ geographic ranges may change in the near-future. To avoid extinction, many populations therefore need to migrate to new areas and/or adapt to the new cond

Age is a critical determinant of arterial disease, including aneurysm formation. Here, to understand the impact of aging on the arterial transcriptome, we leveraged RNA-sequencing data to define transcripts that change with advancing age in human arteries. Among the most repressed transcripts in aged individuals were those that are relevant for actomyosin structure and organization, including both

Bakgrund: Det har skett stora omstruktureringar och förändringar inom den svenska elmarknaden sedan avregleringen och elmarknadsreformen 1996. En omfattande konsolidering har skett inom alla led i värdekedjan, både i form av vertikal och horisontell integration. Medan elhandeln har börjat verka under konkurrens, utgör nätverksamheten ett naturligt och legalt monopol. Marknaden både på elhandels- o

Optisk DNA-kartläggning – en metod tillämpad cancerdiagnostik? Akut lymfatisk leukemi (ALL) och akut myeloisk leukemi (AML) är sjukdomar som i hög grad är orsakade av så kallade strukturella variationer i gener. Dessa typer av leukemi är bland de vanligaste cancertyperna som drabbar barn. Det är därför av stort intresse att kunna detektera dessa förändringar för att kunna erbjuda en så bra behandPediatric leukemias are one of the most common types of cancer diagnosed in children. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common form of leukemia in children, and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the second most reoccurring type of leukemia in pediatric diagnosis. It has previously been found that structural variations are an important underlying mechanism leading to these diseases. Fluo

Malaria parasites (Plasmodium spp.) include some of the world's most widespread and virulent pathogens. Our knowledge of the molecular mechanisms these parasites use to invade and exploit hosts other than mice and primates is, however, extremely limited. It is therefore imperative to characterize transcriptome-wide gene expression from non-model malaria parasites and how this varies across host inMalaria parasites (Plasmodium spp.) include some of the world's most widespread and virulent pathogens.

Förlossningen är en omvälvande och minnesvärd livshändelse. Den nyblivna mammans fokus ligger på det nyfödda barnet, likaså vårdpersonalens. En förlossning kan leda till allvarliga skador på bäckenbotten (pelvic floor, PF), ibland med komplikationer som inkontinens. Tyvärr förbises eller tonas dessa skador ofta ned – både av nyblivna mödrar och vårdgivare. I Sverige drabbas ungefär 1–4% av kvinnorGiving birth is a profound life event. Most of the time, mothers move their attention to their newborn, as do healthcare providers. Childbirth can cause severe pelvic floor (PF) injuries, potentially leading to complications, such as incontinence. Despite their impact, these injuries are often deprioritised or normalised—both by postpartum women and healthcare providers. In Sweden, 1–4% of women w

Barnets bästa är en rättighet i artikel 3.1 i barnkonventionen. Svensk rätt fast-slår barnets bästa i 6 kap. 2 a § FB. Bestämmelsen uppdaterades senast den 1 januari 2025. Gällande rätt visar att bestämmelsen uppdaterades för att framhålla att risken för att barnet utsätts för våld eller annan kränkande behandling alltid ska ha större betydelse än barnets behov av en god och nära relation till sinThe best interests of the child are a right stipulated in Article 3.1 of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. In Swedish law, the best interests of the child constitute a guiding principle laid down in Chapter 6, Section 2 a of the Children and Parents Code (FB). The principle was last amended on 1 January 2025. An examination of the applicable law shows that the purpose of the amendment was

This thesis examines how Chinese foreign direct investment (FDI) affects economic growth in Africa. Over the past two decades, China’s economic engagement in Africa has increased substantially, yet there is no clear consensus in the literature regarding the growth effects of these investments. The aim of this study is therefore to assess whether Chinese FDI is associated with economic growth in Af

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattningAluminium används för en stor mängd produkter, allt från hus och i fordon till såvardagliga produkter som aluminiumburkar. Det breda användningsområdet beror på aluminiumets höga hållfasthet, lätta vikt och dess goda korrosionsmotståndighet. Korrosionsmotståndet beror på att när aluminium exponeras för luft bildas ett aluminiumoxidskikt på ytan, vilket skyddar aluAbstractIn this thesis, the electrochemical deposition process of Sn into ordered nanoporous anodic aluminium oxide (NP-AAO) have been studied. The deposition process was studied in situ using the X-ray techniques: X-ray diffraction (XRD), Grazing incidence Transmission Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (GTSAXS), X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES) and ex situ usin

Abstract in German Nach ihrem Amtsamtritt im September 2006 hat die schwedische Mitte-Rechts-Regierung im Januar 2007 die Beiträge zu den Arbeitslosenkassen der Gewerkschaften erheblich erhöht. Dadurch wurde es plötzlich wesentlich teurer, Mitglied in einer Gewerkschaft (und in der Arbeitslosenkasse) zu sein. Innerhalb von zwei Jahren verloren die Gewerkschaften 8% ihrer Mitglieder, der gewerkschaIn January 2007 the Swedish centre-right government in office since September 2006 raised considerably fees for union unemployment funds. Union membership (fund membership included) therefore suddenly became much more expensive. Trade unions lost 8% of their members over two years and union density fell by 6 percentage points (from 77% in 2006 to 71% in 2008), while unemployment funds were hit by

Increased platelet destruction is central in the pathogenesis of immune thrombocytopenia. However, impaired platelet production is also relevant and its significance underlies the rationale for treatment with thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs). Previous studies have associated enhanced complement activation with increased disease severity. Additionally, treatment refractoriness has been de

Studien omfattade 124 ungdomar, 68 flickor och 56 pojkar, medelålder 15,3 år, som behandlades med FFT på ett socialkontor. Studien hade en pre – post - post design. Terapin pågick i 5 - 7 månader med i genomsnitt 13 sessioner, 89 % fullföljde behandlingen. Terapeuterna fick kontinuerligt handledning och certifierades flera gånger. De bedömdes därför vara programföljsamma. Mödrar och fäder samt ung
