Accurate prediction of crack growth and strength in glued timber joints and components can be achieved by using cohesive laws in constitutive models. These laws represent the traction-separation relationship that measures the stress transmitted between crack faces in a cohesive zone, and can be obtained directly from experiments. However, studies on measuring the cohesive laws of wood adhesive bon

Popular Abstract in Swedish Datorgenererade bilder är en viktig del av underhållningsindustrin, som bland annat innefattar spel- och filmindustrin. För att kunna skapa avancerade specialeffekter i filmer samt stora och detaljerade spelvärldar krävs datorprogram som utnyttjar beräkningskraften i dagens datorer på ett effektivt sätt. Bättre och snabbare datorprogram leder ofta till nya användaruppleComputer generated imagery is vital to the entertainment industry in the production of games and films, for example. It is also increasingly important for visualization in design, architecture, engineering, and medicine, to name a few. Improvements to rendering techniques come from a combination of improved algorithms and more powerful hardware. Typically, hardware developments introduce new chall

In the introduction, different contributions are brought together in an analysis of pre-industrial living standards in East and West, viewed in the light of the general debate on these issues from the classical economists to present times. The general picture emerging is not one of great divergence, but instead one of considerable similarities. Regional differences within Europe or Asia were often

This report describes how the work has been conducted in the project “A National Strategy for Standardisation of Digital Information Management within the BuiltEnvironment” (further on denoted NSS). This report describes the project background, aim, objective, methodology, schedule, organisation, and identified areas and processes that have been the basis for the development of the initial three-y

Abstract in UndeterminedAn interlaboratory study on measurement of evaporative resistance (Ret) with thermal manikins has been conducted in order to assess the repeatability and reproducibility limits as a function of mean resistance values, when using similar test protocols (ASTM F2370). Three independent laboratories tested seven clothing ensembles, with Ret ranging from very low to very high va

Synthesis of nanocomposites based on the low density polyethylene (LDPE) with homogeneous dispersion of CeO2 nanoparticles is reported.

The enzyme EndoS from Streptococcus pyogenes is an immunomodulatory molecule hydrolyzing the conserved glycans in the effector part of immunoglobulin G (IgG). EndoS is remarkably specific for IgG, and hydrolysis has profound effects on IgG effector functions. EndoS pretreatment of IgG, or direct administration to animals with experimental antibody-mediated autoimmune diseases, inhibits development
