Emergence of multiple-function products (MFPs) poses a variety of challenges and risks for achieving sustainable consumption and production as well as fair consumer society and universal design. We overviewed MFPs from these viewpoints and then, focusing on product standard as a means to create mechanisms to reduce environmental loads from products, elucidated advantages and limitation of five app

Översikt över innehavarna av posten som "rector illustris" vid Lunds universitet (1670 till 1750) med tonvikt på den förste respektive siste innehavaren av posten: Nils Banér (1654-1684) och Gustaf Fredrik Gyllenborg (1731-1808).

Results of a recent European research project MAnaging Speeds of Traffic on European Roads (MASTER) are presented. Speed management is described as a two-step process where target speeds for different kinds of roads are determined first, and then various measures and tools are applied in order to adopt such speed. Current practice and main problems in speed management are described. The various im

Essay on the horror theme in the films of Ingmar Bergman.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kroniskt obstruktiv lungsjukdom (KOL) är en allvarlig folksjukdom vars huvudsakliga orsak är tobaksrökning. Det är den enda av de viktigaste dödsorsakerna som ökar och år 2020 beräknas KOL utgöra den 4:e vanligaste dödsorsaken i världen. Flera studier har försökt att bestämma förekomsten (prevalensen) av KOL i befolkningen men tyvärr har de oftast använt olika metoder oBackground – Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, there is little information on the prevalence and particularly on the incidence of COPD. Also, apart from the importance of tobacco smoking and a1-antitrypsin deficiency, information on contributing risk factors for the development of COPD is limited. Hypotheses – 1. Spirometry

Abstract in Italian Sono qui messi a confronto due modelli per l’analisi dei Vangeli da un punto di vista retorico: l’utilizzo delle categorie retoriche dei Progymnasmata ellenistici e «la retorica biblica e semitica». Si sostiene che l’utilizzo di un modello non escluda l’utilizzo dell’altro, ma che anzi si completino a vicenda. Un’analisi dell’ultima cena in Lc 22,11-38 serve a illustrare l’uso Two approaches to the rhetorical analysis of Gospel texts are being compared in this essay: on the one hand, the use of the rhetorical categories of the Hellenistic Progymnasmata, and on the other, «Biblical and semitic rhetoric». It is argued that these two approaches are not mutually exclusive, but complementary. The last supper in Luke 22,14-38 functions as a test case. An introduction offers s

Renewable energy systems are likely to become wide spread in the future due to environmental demands. As a consequence of the dispersed nature of renewable energy systems, this implies that there will be a distributed generation of electric power. Since most of the distributed electrical energy sources do not provide their electric power at line frequency and voltage, a DC bus is a useful common c

Popular Abstract in Swedish Glukos (druvsocker) är den primära energikällan för människan. Därför är det viktigt att effektivt kunna lagra extra socker från blodcirkulationen efter måltider, och att snabbt kunna använda det upplagrade sockret mellan måltiderna. Glykogen är upplagringsformen av socker i cellerna och en glykogenmolekyl kan bestå av tiotusentals glukosmolekyler. Glykogensyntesen reglEffective insulin-stimulated storage of excess glucose after a meal, and its rapid mobilisation in the fasting state provide basis of glucose homeostasis. Glycogen is the macromolecular storage form of glucose and glycogen synthase (GS) is the rate-limiting enzyme in glycogen synthesis. Skeletal muscle and liver are the major depots of glycogen. The present studies were undertaken to isolate and c

The aim of the thesis work is the further development of practical engine simulation tools based on Stochastic Reactor Models, SRMs. Novel and efficient implementations were made of a variety of SRMs adapted to different engine types. The models in question are the HCCI-SRM, the TwoZone SI-SRM and the DI-SRM. The specific models developed were incorporated into two different interfaces: DARS-ESSA,
