Swedish refugee politics before and during the Second World War and rescue operations 1939-45 with special emphasis on assistance to the Greeks, Raoul Wallenberg´s mission in Budapest and Folke Bernadotte and the White Buses. In the latter cases, I analyse the debates from 1945 to 2012.

The effects on dough rheology at large deformations in elongational flow and shear flow have been studied. The results are related to bread making quality in terms of bread volume and to the physical structure of the dough. A new method for evaluation of an instrumented mixograph is reported. A PLS model, including the five most important parameters from the mixogram, explained 90.9% of the variat

I det västerländska samhället kämpar vi för långa liv men mot åldrandet. Det är bara en av de motsägelser som ålder och åldrande ger upphov till. I Åldrandets betydelser undersöks olika förhållningssätt till och konsekvenser av åldrande. Boken belyser hur kronologisk ålder inte alltid är densamma som den upplevda och hur samhället möter olika åldrar. Exempel tas från såväl hälso- och sjukvården so

A 10-bit, 100-MHz CMOS linear interpolation digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is presented. It includes a 16-tap voltage controlled delay line and a 10-bit binary-weighted DAC with a time-interleaved structure. The linear interpolation not only increases the attenuation of the DAC's image components, but also reduces the glitch of the binary-weighted DAC. The requirement for the analog reconstruct

Autoantibodies of different specificites have been described in association with glomerulonephritis and therefore the aim of this thesis was to improve our knowledge of the different manifestations of autoimmune phenomena which are involved in the glomerulonephritides. Special reference is made to Wegener´s granulomatosis (WG) and microscopic polyangiitis (MP) which are frequently associated with

In this article, we present an overview of empirical research on boards and governance in leading U.S. and international academic journals in general management. Samples, methods, theories, and main concepts are presented and compared. The contributions are positioned with respect to contingency perspectives, behavioral perspectives, and evolutionary perspectives. Through an analysis of 127 empiri

Abstract in Danish Kapitler handler om, hvad alder er, og hvordan menneskers livssituation former mennesker gennem livet mere end en kronologisk alder. Vi ældes fra vi er midt i 20'erne, og det er en nødvendighed for at være i livet.

Funded by European Community and Swiss government research project AZEP (Advanced Zero Emission Power Plant), the project was carried out at the Department of Energy Sciences at Lund Faculty of Engineering (LTH). The project addressed the development of a specific, zero emissions, gas turbine-based, power generation process to reduce local and global emissions in a cost-effective way. In this proj

The severe fouling common in food processing puts high demands on equipment cleaning. Adsorption of the protein betalactoglobulin to solid surfaces and its subsequent removal were followed using in situ ellipsometry. Most experiments were done in a stirred cuvette. Additionally, a flow cell was designed, which was employed in some work. The characteristics of the surface were shown to influence p
