Internal combustion engine is a developed and established technology whichcontributes largely to the transportation of goods and people. In one hand, theburning of fossil fuels is the main reason for the combustion engines to beconsidered unsustainable while on the other hand, the combustion behaviour ofrenewable fuels is not fully understood yet. This lack of knowledge is morepronounced when it c

Realistic and accurate reconstructions of past vegetation cover are necessary to study past environmental changes. This is important since the effects of human land-use changes (e.g. agriculture, deforestation and afforestation/reforestation) on biodiversity and climate are still under debate. Over the last decade, development, validation, and application of pollen-vegetation relationship models h

Sverige har ett allt mer växande renoveringsbehov. Detta till följd av att man inte har renoverat tillräckligt i kombination med att en stor del av det svenska byggnadsbeståndet uppfördes under miljonprogrammet och rekordåren. Denna utmaning kommer samtidigt som hållbarhet står högt på agendan. Renoveringar påverkar alla tre stora hållbarhetsdimensioner, ekologisk, ekonomisk och social hållbarhet.The growing need for renovations is one of the key challenges within the Swedish multifamily rental stock. Sustainable development is essential and renovations affect all three major categories of sustainability, the social, economic and ecological factors. All buildings need to be remodeled sooner or later – the question is only when and how. With this in mind it is important to understand how re

Title of paper 1 INTRODUCTION Critical infrastructures and societal functions, such as transportation, telecommunications, health care and energy distribution, constitute the backbone of a modern society. These systems are also heavily in- terdependent, meaning that failures in a system does not stay isolated but can cascade to other systems Hence societal resources must be devoted to safe- guard

The purpose of this study was to understand the type of disciplining and normalizing that includes in the two measures the Development Guarantee and the Employment Guarantee for youth. This study is based on a qualitative content analysis with inspiration from hermeneutics where discipline and normalizing represent the theoretical starting points. Five assessments from governmental agencies regard

Stadsmiljö skiljer sig från det ursprungliga landskapet, som till stor del har lämnats orörd av människan. När mer och mer mark används till att bygga städer eller för att odla mat kan det skapa problem för pollinatörer, då de är anpassade till den naturliga miljön. Pollinatörerna kan däremot ofta överleva inuti städer i parker, rabatter och trädgårdar. Det är viktigt att bevara pollinatörer, då o

A new method for absorbed-dose assessment in radionuclide therapy is presented in this paper. The method is based on activity quantification by the conjugate-view methodology, applied to serial whole-body, anterior-posterior, scintillation-camera scans. The quantification method is an extension of previous studies, and includes separate corrections for attenuation, scatter, and overlapping organs.

A combination of theoretical predictions and isotopic equilibration experiments using the three-isotope method have been performed to assess Si isotope fractionation among minerals, and aqueous species in the presence of dissolved catechol. Aqueous Si in abiotic ambient temperature aqueous solutions is dominated by the IV-coordinated H4SiO04species, but the presence of aqueous catechol provokes th

The 90 kDa ribosomal S6 kinase (RSK) family of proteins is a group of highly conserved Ser/Thr kinases. They are downstream effectors of the Ras/ERK/MAPK signaling cascade. ERK1/2 activation directly results in the phosphorylation of RSKs, which further, through interaction with a variety of different downstream substrates, activate various signaling events. In this context, they have been shown t

We consider the problem of designing demodulators for channels with memory that use reduced-size trellis descriptions for the received signal. We assume an overall iterative receiver, and for the parts of the signal not covered by the trellis description, we use interference cancellation based on the soft information provided by the outer decoder. In order to reach a trellis description, a linear

The mechanisms responsible for the transfer of energy and water within the climate system are under worldwide investigation within the framework of the Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX) to improve the predictability of natural and man-made climate changes at short and long ranges and their impact on water resources. Five continental-scale experiments have been established within GEW

Gaussian wave models have been successfully used since the early 1950s to describe the development of random sea waves, particularly as input to dynamic simulation of the safety of ships and offshore structures. A drawback of the Gaussian model is that it produces stochastically symmetric waves, which is an unrealistic feature and can lead to unconservative safety estimates. The Gaussian model des

Vertebrates have evolved an adaptive immune system in addition to the ancestral innate immune system. It is often assumed that a trade-off between costs and benefits of defence governs the evolution of immunological defence, but the costs and benefits specific to the adaptive immune system are poorly known. We used genetically engineered mice lacking lymphocytes (i.e. mice without adaptive, but wi
