This manual introduces a theoretical and practical framework among theologians, as well as other professionals. It proposes a historical and sociological, as well as a political and gender approach to the three monotheistic religions based on conflicts provocation and their transgression. Furthermore it aims to identify and map the European theological adn religious curricula which promote the ana
By growth of Si on substrates that have been pre-patterned by electron-beam induced carbon nano-growth masks, nano-holes form at the Si surface. We have grown self-assembled Ge quantum dots in these holes by ultra high vacuum chemical vapour phase deposition (UHV-CVD). We usually find four dots in each hole. By varying the amount of deposited Ge, we can obtain either four dome-shaped or four pyram
The paper investigates the role of mobile entrepreneurs in spatial diffusion process of a rapidly expanding industry using the case of the knowledge-intensive ICT-services in Sweden over 1990-2010. The main contributions of this study are twofold. On the one hand, paper contributes to entrepreneurship research by showing that the spatial origin of an entrepreneur should be analysed not only in ter
Local blood flow in the thigh was measured with 133Xe clearance technique in eight male distance runners after compression with a foam rubber compress and a standard elastic bandage. Two degrees of compression were tested, and an initial experiment with rested subjects was followed by a similar experiment immediately after running. Maximum compression exerted a cutaneous pressure of 85 (+/- 8) mm
Objectives. To investigate the association between maternal characteristics and fetal growth during the third trimester of pregnancy. Methods. Using a population-based perinatal register, 48,809 term singleton pregnancies were identified for which a routine ultrasound examination in the third trimester was performed between 1995 and 2009. Fetal and infant weight, respectively, were expressed as ge
It has been known from multi-zone simulations that HCCI combustion can be significantly affected by temperature stratification of the in-cylinder gas. With the same combustion timing (i.e., crank angles at 50% heat release, denoted as CA50), large temperature stratification tends to prolong the combustion duration and lower down the in-cylinder pressure-rise-rate. With low pressure-rise-rate HCCI
Problem: Suspected, but objectively absent, rhinosinusitis constitutes a major cause of visits to the doctor, high health care costs, and the over-prescription of antibiotics, contributing to the serious problem of resistant bacteria. This situation is largely due to a lack of reliable and widely applicable diagnostic methods. Method: A novel method for the diagnosis of rhinosinusitis based on non
Stress corrosion cracking occurs due to the synergistic interaction between mechanical load and corrosion reactions. In this study, branching during anodic dissolution driven crack growth is studied using an adaptive FE procedure. The crack has an inherent blunt tip due to the dissolution, and the growth is treated as a moving boundary problem with a strain-assisted evolution law. Simulations are
Systematic studies were performed on the effect of the surfactant alkyl chain length (10-16 carbon atoms) and the head group charge/structure (anionic, cationic, nonionic) on the pasting properties of wheat flour and starch aqueous suspensions by means of a Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA). An excellent agreement was observed between the effect of surfactants on the onset temperature of the pasting proc
Popular Abstract in Swedish Benskörhet (osteoporos), är ett komplext, multifaktoriellt tillstånd som utvecklas i det tysta fram till den dag man drabbas av en fraktur. De senaste 40 åren har antalet benskörhetsfrakturer ökat och i dag beräknas varannan kvinna och var fjärde man någon gång drabbas av en eller flera osteoporosrelaterade frakturer. Exempel på sådana benbrott är frakturer i kota, höftOsteoporosis is a growing problem worldwide where Sweden has one of the highest fragility fracture incidences in the world. The growing years are thought to be an opportune time to build strong bones and the enhancement of peak bone mass (PBM) has been suggested as a prevention strategy for osteoporosis. Most exercise intervention studies in children, evaluating the accrual of areal bone mineral d
Mass-propagation of the spruce bark beetle, Ips typographus, following windfalls and drought is a serious threat to mature spruce forests. Climate change will affect the population dynamics of I. typographus directly as the swarming activity and development rate are mainly controlled by temperature, and indirectly via changes in availability of brood trees. Today, I. typographus is in general univ
The microfiltration (MF) fouling behaviour of -lactoglobulin solutions containing various levels of ionic calcium was investigated on a constant-flux, computer-controlled, cross-flow rig using zirconium oxide membranes. Fouling behaviour was highly dependent on both permeate flux and calcium concentration. At 200 l/(m2 h) on a 50 nm membrane the presence of 8.0 mmol/dm3 (8.0 mM) ionic calcium in t
We give a simpler proof of the formula, due to J.-L. Lions, for the reproducing kernel of the space of harmonic functions on a domain Omegasubset ofR(n) whose boundary values belong to the Sobolev space H-s(partial derivativeOmega), and also obtain generalizations of this formula when instead of harmonic functions one considers functions annihilated by a given elliptic partial differential operato
