Popular Abstract in Swedish Lödda kompakta plattvärmeväxlare används i stor utsträckning i kyl – och värmepumpanläggningar samt luftkonditioneringsanläggningar. Såväl enfasvärmeutbyte, dvs värmeutbyte mellan två vätskor, som fasomvandling genom kondensation och förångning är viktiga tillämpningsområden. Apparaterna användes inom industri, hushåll, samhälleliga inrättningar mm. Prestandan för olikaThis thesis work presents various performance estimation methods of compact brazed plate heat exchangers (BPHE) operating in single phase, condenser, evaporator, cascaded and transcritical applications. Such methods play a vital role in development of heat exchanger selection software and during geometry parameter estimation in the new product development process. The suitability of employing comm

A method for determination of the accessible volume fraction in gels as function of the molecular weight of the solutes is presented. The pore-size distribution is determined by measuring the rate of diffusion of a mixture of solutes into a gel using gel filtration for separation. The solutes, of various sizes, are detected by refractive index measurements. Two marker molecules (blue dextran and g

This paper is the third in a series which recounts experiences in a project conducted in a newly-created Department of the University of Portsmouth (see also Bednar et al, 2004 and Eglin et al, 2005). A variant of the Strategic Systemic Thinking (SST) Framework (Bednar, 2000) was used to support the 25 staff of the Department to explore possibilities for development in a range of areas of work rel

The purpose of this dissertation is the study of the journalism of Runer Jonsson (born 1916), as sole editor of Nybro Tidning, published by the printing house Johansson & Svenson AB. Although coming directly from industrial work, not quite 20 of age and not at all experienced in newspaper publishing Jonsson started his new career after for two years having showed his ability as a writer of loc

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den moderna epokens början återfinns i det sena sjuttonhundratalet och i Europa. Det är en epok, en kultur som förstår sig som både ny och som annorlunda i förhållande till tidigare epoker och kulturer, sådana som vilat på myter, religion och tradition. Den nya kulturens fundamentala insikt bestod i att ingenting måste vara så som det är, utan allt vore möjligt också påThe problem which the present study discusses is modernity. The study interprets modernity’s cultural and anthropological dispositions as historical appearances. Consequently, it is situated at the intersection of cultural sociology and historical anthropology. The aim is to generate insight and understanding rather than a coherent theory. The key element consists of combination and variation of c

In this paper I study how 1500 returned Swedish-Americans acted after their return to a mainly rural area of southern Sweden. The rural society in which the returnees grew up before immigrating to America was still largely a self-sustaining society albeit with a slowly expanding market economy. Most of the returnees came from a poorer background but quite a few of them experienced upward social mo

Image processing is one of the popular applications of Cellular Neural Networks. Macro enriched field-programmable gate-arrays can be used to realize such systems on silicon. At first glance a pipelined approach, based on circuit switching, seems promising. The digital implementation supports the handling of grey-level images at 180 to 240 Mpixels per second by exploiting the Xilinx Virtex-II macr

Purpose : to gain knowledge on how managers experience organizational core values, and to explore how the managers look upon the significance of such values in relation to their leadership. Theoretical framework : organisational culture (Schein) and action theory (Argyris & Schön). Regarding values, social influence and theories on motivation, studies by Rokeach , Sheldon and Elliot.

There are many different frequency bands above 6 GHz and into the mm-wave range above 30 GHz that are possible candidates for use in future 5G cellular systems. In this paper, we present some results for wireless channels at 15 and 28 GHz in an indoor scenario. The results are based on both measurements and ray tracing simulations. Basic comparisons of measured and simulated power-delay profiles,

BACKGROUND: The Eight-Twenty-One (ETO) nuclear co-repressor gene belongs to the ETO homologue family also containing Myeloid Translocation Gene on chromosome 16 (MTG16) and myeloid translocation Gene-Related protein 1 (MTGR1). By chromosomal translocations ETO and MTG16 become parts of fusion proteins characteristic of morphological variants of acute myeloid leukemia. Normal functions of ETO homol

Background: Art therapy is based on the conception that image making in a therapeutic context may facilitate processes of change. Methods: A semi-structured interview with focus on the image was conducted with 17 women in order to explore change, after which a qualitative content analysis was performed. Results: The women experienced internal change as a sudden, unexpected turning point or as a mo

Planeter är mycket vanliga i vår galax. De senaste 20 åren har man upptäckt att de flesta solliknande stjärnor har planeter kretsande omkring sig. Man vet också att det finns en stor variation av exoplaneter. Runt 50\% av alla solliknande stjärnor har superjordar (planeter med en massa eller radie mellan jordens och Neptunus) kretsande tätt intill sig vilket gör solsystemet otypiskt. Man har hittaOver the past 20 years we have discovered that exoplanets are common in the Galaxy, and are far more diverse than anyone expected. Half of all Sun-like stars are accompanied by at least one super-Earth (a planet with a size between Earth and Neptune), many planets have very high eccentricities indicative of a dynamical origin, and a small fraction of stars are accompanied by hot Jupiters, whose or

Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the quality of data on endometrial (EC) and ovarian, fallopian tube, peritoneal, abdominal or pelvic cancers (OC) registered in the Swedish Quality Register of Gynecologic Cancer (SQRGC). Method: A random sample of 500 patients was identified in the SQRGC and their medical charts were reviewed for re-abstraction of 31 selected core variables by an independ

Several studies demonstrate the value of residents’ voices in the place branding process, however, relatively little is known about how residents experience participating in place branding campaigns and the consequences for place identity. This chapter explores the question of whether participatory branding initiatives could potentially lead to more inclusionary representational spaces in the city

Problem - Uncertainty greatly burdens innovation in tech-driven industries which has made decision-making an art-like navigation, especially within the Fuzzy Front End of operations. This has motivated previous researchers to study the effectual decision-making principles originated by Sarasvathy in regard to a wide variety of audiences such as entrepreneurs, start-ups and top management. Employee

This study sets out to investigate the non-diegetic music in Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar (2014) in order to highlight its implicit narrative functions and meanings. The theoretical approach consists of semiotic concepts such as ‘Cognitive denotative’ and ‘Cognitive connotative’ functions by Emilio Audissino, ‘Myth’ and ‘Anchorage’ by Barthes as well as Claudia Gorbman’s ‘Connotative Cueing’.

This thesis explores the motivations of online users to avoid online advertising by employing ad blockers. Ad blocker is the filtering technology that blocks online advertising from appearing. Four motives have been identified: privacy concerns, annoying advertisements, browsing experience, and malvertising. The motives examined are aiming to reveal the importance of each one of them in the blocki
