This report describes laboratory and analytical studies of the chloride migration coefficient, D, defined by Tang, the salt frost scaling, the internal frost resistance and the sulphate resistance of SCC that contains increased amount of filler, different types of casting and different air content.

This dissertation focuses on the changes in the organization of the production process that occurred at Volvo Cars and Volvo Trucks in the early 1990s. The changes were directed at the established division of labor – both vertical and horizontal – between different groups of employees: managers, foremen, white and blue-collar workers. The questions posed are primarily concerned with the changes fo

Four strains of lactic acid bacteria were used as pure or mixed cultures to investigate the texture-promoting capacity and exopolysaccharides (EPS) formation in three different oat-based, non-dairy milk products, Adavena G40, Adavena M40 (both with a dry matter content of 20%) and Mill Milk (with a dry matter content of 10%). Viscosity was measured at two different shear rates during 2 min of shea

A theoretical analysis of the reduction of iron oxides by carbon in a circulating fluidized bed reactor is considered in this study. Iron oxide and coal particles are fast fluidized in the main column by a hot stream of gases (N2–CO–CO2–H2–H2O). The analysis considers kinetic and hydrodynamic factors in the reactor and assumes the reduction reaction by carbon to proceed through gaseous intermediat

Review of a failed dissertation on the foreign policy of the Church of Sweden.

A previous study reported the ability of staphylococci to bind heparin and heparin-dependent host growth factors. The present study isolated and identified heparin- and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-binding surface components of S. epidermidis strain RP12 and S. haemolyticus strain SM 131. The staphylococcal heparin-binding component(s) were purified by affinity chromatography on heparin-S

Particles from post denitrifying Kaldnes Moving Bed(TM) Process were studied using an optical borescope, a visualisation technique that provides opportunities for both qualitative and quantitative studies of the separation mechanism in Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF). Rise rates for particle/bubble aggregates were estimated showing great variability. Two groups of aggregates were distinguished; rela

Artikeln belyser hur Derridas filosofi skär in i teologiska begrepp och motiv.

In this paper, implementation of the Benchmark Simulation Model No 2 (BSM2) within Matlab-Simulink is presented. The BSM2 is developed for plant-wide WWTP control strategy evaluation on a long-term basis. It consists of a pre-treatment process, an activated sludge process and sludge treatment processes. Extended evaluation criteria are proposed for plant-wide control strategy assessment. Default o

Recent results and experiments are presented aiming at nuclear structure studies in the vicinity of the doubly-magic isotope Ni-56. The feature of prompt particle emission is revised, and new studies of mirror nuclei in the upper fp shell are briefly discussed.

Objective To compare the antenatal detection rate of malformations in chromosomally normal fetuses between a strategy of offering one routine ultrasound examination at 12 gestational weeks (gws) and a strategy of offering one routine examination at 18 gws. Design Randomised controlled trial. Setting Multicentre trial including eight hospitals. Population A total of 39 572 unselected pregnant women

Popular AbstractInnovation, skapandet av nya produkter och processer, är i hög grad ojämnt fördelat över det geografiska rummet. Denna ojämna fördelning har stor betydelse för regionala ekonomiers relativa framgång. Geografiskt koncentrerat kunskapsutbyte mellan företag och andra organisationer är många gånger avgörande för dessa aktörers sammanlagda innovativa kapacitet, och därmed för regionens Innovation, the act and outcome of making something novel, is unevenly distributed across the geographical landscape. This uneven distribution has a profound impact on the differential success of regional economies. Localized learning between co-located firms and organizations provides an important source of increased innovation for regions to face challenges posed by increasingly global competiti
