The main ambition of companies is to deliver products (or services) to customers successfully in order to remain competitive. This requires an efficient and effective product development process, as well as cost reductions and higher service levels through improved logistics performance in the supply chain. Traditionally, these two areas, i.e. product development and logistics, have been treated s

Popular Abstract in Swedish En ny metod för tillförsel av läkemedel, samt för koncentrationsmätning av olika kroppsegna och främmande ämnen i ögat. Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Vi har anpassat den sk mikrodialystekniken för intraokulärt bruk (dvs för ögon) på kaniner. Tekniken utvecklades ursprungligen vid Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, för mätning av signalsubstanser i hjärnan. Den byg

This paper presents the concept and initial work on a microfluidic platform for bead-based analysis of biological sample. The core technology in this project is ultrasonic manipulation and trapping of particle in array configurations by means of acoustic forces. The platform is ultimately aimed for parallel multistep bioassays performed on biochemically activated microbeads (or particles) using su

Seaweeds and marine invertebrates of the lagoons and reefs have, ever since the initial settlement almost 3.500 years ago, been a very important source of food and raw materials for the people of the Tongan islands. This study is an attempt to combine anthropological and biological perspectives in documenting and discussing, in contemporary as well as ancient contexts, the gathering/collecting of

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen handlar om utvecklingen av CARS som en diagnostikmetod för att studera förbränningsförlopp. CARS står för Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy och är en optisk laserbaserad metod för att mäta temperaturer och ämneskoncentrationer i gaser. CARS, och andra typer av förbränningsdiagnostikmetoder, bidrar till ökad förståelse för de processer som utgö

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to carry out a numerical investigation to study forced convection for a tube with fins on the inner and outer surfaces with water as the base fluid and adding particles of CuO to have a nanofluid. Design/methodology/approach - Three geometries are designed by using Solid Works and the number of inside fins is 20 with height 6 mm and thickness 1mm. The number

During the year 2008, the government offered a number of different municipalities in Sweden a development agreement. The purpose of the agreement was to reduce the number of districts in Sweden, where a high proportion of residents feel a sense of exclusion, poor health and insecurity. In connection with the development agreement the Crime Prevention Council and the Statistics Office produced stat

Considering the fact that many people are oppressed because of their gender and race, whilst others are privileged because of theirs, we should reflect on the concept of intersectionality. This paper aims at reading Willa Cather’s My Ántonia from an intersectional perspective with the purpose of opening up for certain themes. In addition, it also sought to explore how reading the novel from an int

Vid utformning av vägar idag är det inte enbart vägytan och vägkroppen som beaktas utan hela vägmiljön inklusive vägens sidoområde. Detta ställer helt nya krav på utformning av slänter och diken. Den främsta utmaningen är hanteringen av vattnet och här är innerslänten ett vitalt instrument för utmaningen. Vattenhanteringen i vägområdet är en huvuduppgift för att kunna säkerställa en vägs säkerhetWhen designing roads in today’s time, it is not only the road surface and the structure that are being taken into consideration, but also the whole road environment including the side region of the road. This emphasizes completely new requirements on the geometrical design of slopes and ditches. The main task is the management of the road water and the inner road slope is a vital instrument for th
