Popular Abstract in Swedish Förbränning är den viktigaste energikällan på jorden och en ökad förståelse av förbränningsprocesser är väsentlig för att minska miljöfarliga utsläpp och för att öka effektiviteten av förbränningsanläggningar och motorer. För detta ändamål är det viktigt att bestämma bl. a. koncentrationer av ämnen som bildas under förbränningen. Laserbaserade mätmetoder möjliggör berörCombustion is the most important source of energy worldwide. A better understanding of it is essential if pollutant emissions are to be reduced and combustion devices be made more efficient. This requires measurement of physical and chemical combustion parameters. Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) is widely employed as a laser-diagnostic technique for the detection of combustion species but it suff

The effect of plant species diversity on productivity and competitive ability was studied in an experiment carried out simultaneously in five European countries: Czech Republic (CZ), the Netherlands (NL), Sweden (SE), Spain (SP), and United Kingdom (UK). The aim was to separate the 'chance' or 'sampling effect' (increasing the number of sown species increases the probability that a species able 't

Abstract. The essay aims at integration of different concepts of meaning developed in semiotics, biology, and cognitive science, in a way that permits the formulation of issues involving evolution and development. The concept of sign in semiotics, just like the notion of representation in cognitive science, have either been used so broadly as to become almost meaningless, or they have been outrigh

Popular Abstract in Swedish Byggbranschen står inför stora utmaningar i att möta behovet av nya bostäder samtidigt som renoveringsbehovet av flerbostadshus är stort. Man beskylls ofta för bristande kvalitet och höga kostnader. Industriellt byggande har framförts som en lösning till problemen. I ett projekt på Lunds Universitet har två tillämpningar för industriellt byggande studerats: trähusbygganIndustrialized construction has over the years taken different expressions and gone through different phases depending on where inspiration has come from. In this project, industrialized construction has been studied in two applications: timber house manufacturing and renovation of multi-family houses. In Sweden industrialized production of timber houses is relatively strong in the housing sector

Popular Abstract in Swedish Inom jonstråleanalysen används en partikelstråle, vanligtvis av protoner eller alfapartiklar, med hög energi för undersökning av prov. Då dessa partiklar skjuts in i provet sker kollisioner, reaktioner eller annan form av växelverkan med elektroner och kärnor i provets inre. En del av dessa processer ger upphov till högenergetisk strålning som kan studeras med lämpliga In nuclear microprobe experiments, high resolution maps of the measured parameter, e.g. element- or mass distribution, in a sample can be produced with a variety of ion beam analytical techniques. The principle underlying all the techniques is that ions at MeV energies are used as projectiles to cause interactions with the target material. Because of the limited range of ions in matter, there is a

This dissertation discusses how actors within the state act during a crisis of democracy. This issue is examined from two angles: 1 . How can actors within the state act during democratic crises? 2. How have actors within the state acted during democratic crises? The structure of this book is guided by both of these issues. In the first part of the book, an analytical model is developed. With the

In what way can an artisanal perspective and artisanal knowledge contribute to current archaeology? How can theories about skill and expertise explain and affect research on artisanal issues? These are the questions that are in focus and have been explored in the four collected papers and in the concluding article in this thesis. The author proposes an artisanal perspective from an interdisciplina

Ett olovligt bortförande eller kvarhållande föreligger när ett barn under sexton år har blivit bortfört eller kvarhållet i en stat, som inte utgör barnets hemvist, i strid med vårdnadshavarens vilja. 1980 års Haagkonvention, som har införlivats i svensk rätt genom verkställighetslagen (VerkstL), har utarbetats i syfte att skydda de barn som har blivit olovligen bortförda eller kvarhållna mellan laThe 1980 Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction (Hague Convention), incorporated into Swedish law by the verkställighetslagen (VerkstL), aims to protect children from the harmful effects of cross-border abduction. Under the Hague Convention, the legal guardian of the child in his or her state of habitual residence enjoys ‘rights of custody’ over that child. The removal or

Background: A major challenge of today is to protect the marine ecosystem from a total collapse. Overfishing, illegal, unregulated and unreported fishing, climate change in the sea, coral bleaching, ocean acidification, marine pollution impacts of coastal development, exotic and invasive species and last but not least all the cumulative impacts, are just some of the factors degrading our marine en

Since the adoption of the Charter of the United Nations the pattern of conflict in the international arena has drastically changed. From largely being a scene for inter-state conflicts, internal conflicts have predominated the post-war era. The few international conflicts that the post-war world has witnessed have originated in civil conflicts. The principle of non-intervention implies the duty fo

Manufacturing is an industry in which the effects of globalization are obvious. Manufacturing costs are a key factor in this respect and affect, for example, decisions about offshoring, i.e., moving production abroad. If Sweden and other Western countries are to maintain large manufacturing sectors, they must be competitive, making cost one of the most critical parameters. The work presented here

The adsorption of different metal-organic complexes at surfaces was investigated by spectroscopic techniques (x-ray photoemission spectroscopy, x-ray absorption spectroscopy, resonant photoemission spectroscopy) and by scanning tunnelling microscopy. The investigation methods are able to provide atomic scale information on the studied systems, which moreover originates from the top-most atomic lay

This thesis describes optical and electrical modelling of vertically oriented III-V semiconductor nanowire array solar cells (NWASCs).In the optical studies, three-dimensional electromagnetic modelling was carried out with the scattering matrix method and the finite element method. Shockley–Queisser detailed balance analysis was first applied to a dual-junction NWASC in which both junctions were w

Providing sufficient food for a growing global population is one of the fundamental global challenges today. Crop production needs not only to be increased, but also remain stable over the years, in order to limit the vulnerability of producers and consumers to inter-annual weather variability, especially in areas of the world where the food consumed is mainly produced locally (e.g. Sub Saharan Af

In this study, wireless embedded relative humidity, RH, probes, developed by Electrotech Kalix AB, were evaluated in a laboratory setting. These RH-probes are designed to monitor the drying of concrete at construction sites in a Swedish climate. Two concrete slabs, each with a thickness of 100 mm, were fabricated, using two different concrete mixes, with water-to-cement (w/c) ratios of 0.6 and 0.4

Omstridda sexuella representationer har länge varit en konfliktyta i en västerländsk kontext. Vissa av dessa representationer har snabbt avfärdats som obscena, pornografiska, smutsiga, värdelösa eller ointressanta, medan andra har utmanat etablerade kategoriseringar och blivit föremål för intensiv debatt. För att undersöka och förstå de skriftliga sexuella representationernas historia i en svensk Transgressive sexual representations have long been a point of contention in Western societies. While some representations are easily disregarded as obscene, pornographic, smut, worthless or uninteresting, others disrupt established categorizations and are subject to heated debates. To map and understand the history of written, sexual representations in a Swedish context, I use the literature/porn

At the core of this artistic research project is the idea that composing music can entail more than structuring sonic material; it may involve constructing the very space in which musical thoughts take shape. This space, the composable, is understood not as a fixed, pre-existing framework but as a space in flux—shaped by instruments, devices, spatial configurations, and performative gestures—where

The topic of this thesis is subjectless clauses in Old Swedish (1225–1526). The thesis focuses on referential subjects, and addresses the problem of why the possibilities to leave out such subjects have been reduced during the history of Swedish. The dissertation consists of three main parts, divided into eight chapters. In the first part, chapters 1–3, the aims are presented and a theoretical bac

Vadhållningsutbudet på spelmarknaden är mångfacetterat. Det innefattar bland annat antalet gula kort och hörnor, måldifferensen med vilken ett lag ska vinna och resultatkombinationer som ackumulerar det totala oddset. För den som avser att manipulera en fotbollsmatch finns det således ett stort antal tillvägagångssätt. Oorganiserade aktörer gör överlag mindre insatser på spotbettingmarknaden utan As a result of the emergence and growth of the online gambling market, the number of betting markets available have increased vastly over the last years. As a consequence, match fixers frequently exploit the plethora of gambling objects and gambling forms on the gambling market in order to maximise winnings and minimise the risk of discovery. To limit the occurrence of manipulated matches in Swedi
