In this work the synthesis of waterborne polyurethane/nanosilica nanocomposites by using two differ-ent strategies is presented, starting from a vinyl terminated polyurethane prepolymer (PUP) based onisophorone diisocyanate and polypropylene glycol, and varying the nanosilica content. In one case, thePUP was dispersed in an aqueous solution containing glycerol-functionalized colloidal nanosilica p
Background: Mass screening for celiac disease (CD) as a public health intervention is controversial. Prior to implementation, acceptability to the targeted population should be addressed. We aimed at exploring adolescents' and parents' experiences of having the adolescents' CD detected through mass screening, and their attitudes towards possible future mass screening. Methods: All adolescents (n =

The aim was to investigate whole-body and red marrow absorbed doses in treatments of neuroblastoma (NB) and adult neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) with (131)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine and to propose a simple method for determining the activity to administer when dosimetric data for the individual patient are not available.
This Letter presents a search for contact interactions in the dielectron and dimuon channels using data from proton-proton collisions produced by the LHC at,root s = 7 TeV and recorded by the ATLAS detector. The data sample, collected in 2011, corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 1.08 and 1.21 fb(-1) in the e(+)e(-) and mu(+)mu(-) channels, respectively. No significant deviations from the st
Using data recorded in 2011 with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider, a search for evidence of extra spatial dimensions has been performed through an analysis of the diphoton final state. The analysis uses data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.12 fb(-1) of root s = 7 TeV proton-proton collisions. The diphoton invariant mass (m(gamma gamma)) spectrum is observed to be in g
New basis sets of the atomic natural orbital (ANO) type have been developed for the lanthanide atoms La-Lu. The ANOs have been obtained from the average density matrix of the ground and lowest excited states of the atom, the positive ions, and the atom in an electric field. Scalar relativistic effects are included through the use of a Douglas-Kroll-Hess Hamiltonian. Multiconfigurational wave funct
This dissertation looks into the treatment of exposed children and young people. The background is a puzzlement as to how the discourse on treatment, during the latest twenty years, has concentrated on the same institutions and themes (Ebsen, 2007). The aim of the dissertation is to shed light on how the institutions of child saving, (family care, placement in residential care, intervention in the
The effects of a driver assistance system for keeping safe speed and safe distance (referred to as SASPENCE) on driver behaviour, reactions and acceptance were evaluated in a test carried out in 2006. Twenty test drivers, recruited by ads, drove two times (once with the system off and once with the system on) in real traffic conditions along a 50 km long test route containing urban and rural roads
Practitioners primarily utilise nonparametric methods when estimating Value-at- Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) for computing capital requirements. However, various researchers assert that there are issues with those estimates, particularly amidst periods of market turmoil. Academia produces novel parametric methods to estimate extreme risk measures to address these deficiencies. Neverthele
Conventional agriculture and animal husbandry are leading causes of greenhouse gas emissions,environmental degradation, and biodiversity loss. Biocyclic Vegan Agriculture (BVA) is an approach that aims to address the concerns of modern agriculture and provide a sustainable and ethical alternative. Through the heuristic lens of the Multi-Level Perspective, where BVA serves as a potential niche, thi
Det har skett en förändring i attityden mot kriminalitet, i form av att oron har ökat och det skapats en tydlig vilja hos allmänheten att straffskärpningar ska användas för att bemöta problemet (Andersson & Nilsson, 2016). Sett till denna utveckling fanns ett intresse i att undersöka medias kritiska framställning av ungdomsbrottslighet. Syftet med denna uppsats var att genom en kvalitativ inn
The number of supply chain disruptions has increased over the last couple of years. The Covid-19 Pandemic, blockage of the Suez Canal and Russian invasion of Ukraine are some well-known examples of disruptions. Academia seems to have noticed the increasing disruptions and has explored proactive Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) as an approach to address this. Consulting firms also suggest compan
In 1964, a theory was presented on how an invisible field is acting in nature, which causes mass to arise. The theory gives an explanation of how something can come from nothing and thus takes humanity one step closer to understanding how the universe works. Proving the theory was problematized by the fact that no experiments could be conducted since particle accelerators at the time weren't p
Due to a combination of economic challenges as well as uncertain policy conditions in the United States and the European Union, the development of (advanced) biorefineries has been slower than anticipated. This has hampered the transition to a more sustainable and less carbon-intensive economy, namely the bioeconomy. In this thesis, the technological innovation system (TIS) approach is combined wi
Asylrätten och vem som ska ha rätt till asyl i Sverige är ett högaktuellt ämne som har präglat den politiska debatten under de senaste åren. För närvarande avser den svenska regleringen vara konform med EU:s minimiregler, vilket innebär att endast den som beviljats status som flykting eller alternativt skyddsbehövande har rätt till asyl i Sverige, förutsatt att tillämpningen inte strider mot SveriThe right of asylum and who is entitled to asylum have been debated topics in Swedish politics during the past years. At the current time the right of Asylum in Sweden intends to be adapted to the minimum standards of the European Union, meaning that those who have been granted refugee status or alternatively status as in need of protection shall be granted asylum, given that this interpretation d
Förekomsten av juridiskt oskolade som ett inslag i den dömande verksamheten, är ett fenomen som existerar världen över. I Sverige har institutionen med s.k. nämndemän länge varit en del av rättssystemet. Dess rötter härstammar från det medeltida samhället, men systemet har under åren modifierats flertalet gånger och inflytandet på rättskipningen har varierat. Det huvudsakliga syftet och dess viktiThe presence of non-judicially educated in courts is a recurring phenomenon all over the world. In Sweden, the institution with lay judges (in Sweden; nämndemän) has a long history in the judiciary. It originates from the medieval era, but has over the years been modified several times and the institution’s influence over the administration of justice has varied over the years. However, the purpos
