A formula is proposed for the longshore sediment transport in the swash based on the study by Larson et al. on swash-zone transport and foreshore evolution. Hydrodynamics needed to predict the local transport rate were derived from ballistics theory, where both the cases with and without friction were investigated. The formula was validated with data from two experiments carried out in the Large-s

Halsfluss är den vanligaste och mest kända åkomman, men de orsakar också andra sjukdomstillstånd som svinkoppor och scharlakansfeber. I dagspressen kallas grupp A streptokocker då och då för mördarbakterier. Det epitetet har de fått för deras förmåga att vid vissa allvarligTemperature-dependent structure and function of group A streptococcal M proteins.This thesis describes the temperature-dependent structure of the members in the group A streptococcal M protein family. M proteins are cell-surface proteins that are important for the bacterial virulence and bind to a diverse set of human plasma proteins. The proteins are dimeric coiled-coil molecules, but temperature

Popular AbstractAvhandlingen tar sin empiriska utgångspunkt i en analys av hur historiskt betingade värden hanteras i samtida planering samt natur- och kulturmiljövård. Syftet är att därigenom förtydliga förutsättningarna för en hållbar landskapsutveckling avseende landskapets historiska värden. Analysen tar sin teoretiska utgångspunkt i tidsgeografi och kritisk realism. Perspektiven har använts fThis thesis is based on an analysis of how historically motivated values are treated in contemporary planning- and conservation practices. The aim is to discuss the premises of a sustainable landscape development regarding historical landscapes and heritage. The analysis takes its theoretical point of departure in time-geography and critical realism. These perspectives have been used to develop a
