The objective of this study has been to create an online system for condition monitoring and diagnosis for a combined heat- and power plant in Sweden. This system consists of artificial neural network models, representing each main component of the combined heat- and power plant, accompanied with a graphical user interface. The artificial neural network models are integrated on a power generation
The thesis investigates elite children’s lives in China between 500 and 1000 ACE within the framework of historical anthropology. Based on ‘anomaly accounts’ (collected in the Taiping guangji), medical manuscripts, family instructions, ‘children’s books’, tomb inscriptions, official histories, law and tax code, and poetry, this thesis provides a general definition of childhood and children in medi
Popular Abstract in Swedish Kloning är inte enbart ett sätt för genetiska ingenjörer att framställa identiskt lika får. Det är framför allt ett naturligt förökningssätt för många djur och växter. Bladlöss, björnbär och backlök är tre exempel på vanliga organismer som förökar sig genom kloning. Enligt gängse evolutionär teori är kloning – eller asexuell reproduktion – ett effektivare sätt att produEvolutionary theory predicts a disadvantage to sexual reproduction. This manifests itself either by the higher growth rate of asexual females in a dioecious species, or by the higher transmission rate of a gene conferring asexual female function to its carriers in a hermaphrodite species. The disadvantage to sexual reproduction may be as high as two-fold provided all else is equal. This phenomenon
Popular Abstract in Swedish Kontroll av fororeningar i dagens fusionsmaskiner aer ett inte alltfor stort problem. De kan dock anvandas for diagnostiskt syfte eftersom deras linjeemission avslojar ett flertal intressanta plasmaparametrar. For att kunna maeta egenskaper som jontemperatur, jondensitet och plasmarotation i ett fusionsplasma, aer det av yttersta vikt att den spektroskopiska tolkningen The spectrum and energy levels C IV and the 3l4l' system of the Mg-like ions in the iron group elements has been investigated. This has led to several hundred identified transitions, many of them previously unknown. Using the Charge Exchange diagnostic system at JET, ion temperatures, rotation velocities and densities have been derived from visible spectroscopic measurements on fully ionised light
The subject for this paper is the role of the Holocaust in contemporary European politics of identity. The Council of Europe and the European Parliament have recently adopted resolutions about the Holocaust and most European states are now member of the Holocaust Task Force. In international relations the acknowledgment of the nation’s role in the history of the Holocaust has become increasingly i
Together with reaction time (RT), the force with which people respond to stimuli can provide important clues about cognitive and affective processes. We discuss some of the issues surrounding the accurate measurement and interpretation of response force, and present a response key by which response force can be measured regularly and unobtrusively in RT research. The advantage of the response key
Popular Abstract in Swedish Effekter av giftiga växtplankton på copepoder Vad är växtplankton och copepoder? Växtplankton eller mikroalger som de också kalla's är de dominerande växterna i havet. Det finn's många olika typer av växtplankton och de är alla mycket små (dera's storlek är mellan ett par till några hundra tusendelar av en millimeter). Växtplanktonen använder ljusenergin från solen ocPhytoplankton growth and loss rates are governed by several factors and in many cases, when growth control fails, algal blooms are established. Such blooms can be formed by different phytoplankton species and some of them have harmful impacts on marine ecosystems. One of these negative impacts by some bloom-forming phytoplankton is the ability to produce toxic or inhibitory compounds with broad ef
The need to reduce CO2 emissions from fossil-fuel based power production creates the need for new power plant solutions where the CO2 is captured and stored or reused. Different concepts to capture CO2 fall into the three main categories: 1. Precombustion decarbonization 2. Oxy-fuel combustion 3. Post-combustion removal of carbon. In the first two types of processes Oxygen Transport Membrane (OTM)
Popular Abstract in Swedish Systemisk lupus erythematosus (SLE) är en autoimmun reumatisk systemsjukdom som drabbar flera av kroppens olika organsystem, såsom rörelseapparat, hud och inre organ. Vidare ses en mångfald störningar i kroppens immunsystem. Sjukdomen drabbar oftast kvinnor. Vad som orsakar SLE är ännu så länge ofullständigt klarlagt, men man vet att yttre faktorer (miljöfaktorer) samveSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease in which environmental factors interact with genetic factors in the development of the disease process and evolution of clinical manifestations. In this thesis both exogenous factors and host factors were investigated, as well as important immunopathological aspects including involvement of immune complex (IC), the complement syste
In this paper we estimate the level and inequality of income for Bechuanaland Protectorate by constructing four social tables between 1936 to 1964 using colonial archives and anthropological records. We present a working hypothesis that there is need to further analyze Botswana’s colonial era if we are to understand several aspects of contemporary economic structures. Our focus is on identifying t
We study the competition between interference due to multiple single-particle paths and Coulomb interaction in a simple model of an Anderson-type impurity with local-magnetic-field-induced level splitting coupled to ferromagnetic leads. The model along with its potential experimental relevance in the field of spintronics serves as a nontrivial benchmark system where various quantum-transport appro
Popular Abstract in Swedish Informationsteknologin utvecklas i allt snabbare takt. Däremot tycks utvecklingen ske långsammare när det gäller de modeller, metaforer och metoder som används för att beskriva och förstå hur information sprids och hanteras i organisationer, i kommuner och i samhället i stort. Använder vi egentligen IT på ett effektivt sätt i det dagliga arbetet? I den här avhandlingen New information technology is developing faster than the models, metaphors and methods in use for conceptualizing the sharing and managing of information in organizations, in communities and in society in general. The way we utilize information technology today does not seem to succeed in supporting the everyday work practices through which organizations accomplish their work. In this Ph.D. disser
