Experiences from both academia and practice demonstrate that the legal instruments that comprise the primary tool for carrying out city planning in the U.S. have grown increasingly complex and abstract. Processing the universal rather than the specific aspects of urbanism, these zoning codes have a limited capacity to adapt to local significance and site-specific characteristics, to which architec

Genom att undersöka vad som händer i två kvinnodominerade yrken, lärarens och socialarbetarens, tar den här boken läsaren lite närmare en förståelse av dagens offentliga sektor som en arbetsplats. Vad ligger bakom de höga sjuktalen för anställda i offentliga sektor, och varför är det så att vissa kvinnodominerade yrken inom offentlig sektor förlorar sina anställda och har svårt att hitta ersättare

Många processer i naturen går inte att förklara utan att gå ner på den molekylära skalan och studera enstaka laddningar som elektroner.Till exempel är laddningars rörelse i molekyler en viktig aspekt i fenomen som blixtar och norrsken. Ofta kan dessa processer bara uppstår när sammansättningen av atomer eller molekyler är på ett specifikt sätt; på samma vis som två hjul och en ram behöver sitta ihThe origin of properties in complex systems can often be traced to mechanisms involving charge and energy transfer in only a few embedded molecules. The detailed study of the time evolution of these mechanisms in their original environment is a challenging task. In this thesis we develop experimental tools and methods to enable the study of charge and energy transfer. A new ion and electron moment

Advances in software virtualization and network processing lead to increasing network softwarization. Software network elements running on commodity platforms replace or complement hardware components in cloud and mobile network infrastructure. However, such commodity platforms have a large attack surface and often lack granular control and tight integration of the underlying hardware and software

With the increased frequency of human 7T scanners, there is also a drive towards the implementation advanced MR sequences, such a myelin water imaging, at high fields. Here, we demonstrate the feasibility of translating 3T myelin acquisitions scheme, GRASE, to 7T. We studied the distribution of T values at 7T and determined that myelin water has a T

BACKGROUND: Drug use among the elderly population is generally extensive and the use of potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) is common, which increases the risk for drug-related problems (DRP). Medication reviews are one method to improve drug therapy by identifying, preventing and solving DRPs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of medication reviews on total drug use and po

Analysing the historiography of early to mid 20th century monumental painting in Sweden, the article argue that this historiography is characterised by a recurring interest of unactualised avant-garde proposals for public art (many of them preserved as sketches at Skissernas Museum – Museum of Artistic Process and Public Art in Lund). Sketches for these proposals are set forward as key monuments i

The demand for energy efficient heating solutions can be met by a new concept technology of induction heating. The concept technology relies on inductors built on litz wires moulded in soft magnetic composite. The aim of this article is to present and verify a hypothesis for greatly improved induction heating efficiency when modifying a traditional inductor design. The verification performed using

Förra sommaren gästades SLF den 13–17 juni av den brittiskamotsvarigheten BLS genom en inbjudan av Lars Borg, somibland gästat deras exkursioner i England. Vi var förlagda tillAllégården i Kastlösa på Öland varifrån vi gjorde utflykter till olikadelar av södra och mellersta Öland. En halvdag ägnades ocksååt en typiskt sur tallskog på fastlandet i närheten av Kalmar.

Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) are synthetic receptors capable of selective binding to their target (template) molecules and, hence, are used as recognition elements in assays and sensors as a replacement for relatively unstable enzymes and antibodies. Herein, we describe a manufacturing-friendly protocol for integration of MIP nanoparticles (nanoMIPs) with a (label-free) capacitive sensor.

Comprehensive experimental data on the fatigue properties of extruded Al6082-T6 is used together with crystal plasticity simulations to investigate the microstructure and surface roughness influence on fatigue initiation. Thesurface roughness of the specimens used in the experiments was mapped with White Light Interferometry (WLI) and the location of the fatigue initiation sites was identified and

The material used in packages for the food and dairy industries comprise multiple laminate layers, each servingdifferent purposes in preserving and protecting the package content and by providing the appropriate packagerigidity during handling. Already during package manufacturing and filling, the package material is subject to largedeformations and a range of thermal and chemical processes that sThe material used in packages for the food and dairy industries comprise multiple laminate layers, each serving different purposes in preserving and protecting the package content and by providing the appropriate packagerigidity during handling.

I förra numret av Lavbulletinen meddelade vi att lunglaven var utgången från sin enda kustnära lokal i Småland söder om Kalmar En uppmärksam läsare, Olof Persson, berättade strax efteråt att den fortfarande finns kvar vid Kristinelunds herrgård i Mortorp sydväst om Kalmar.I förra numret av Lavbulletinen meddelade vi att lunglaven var utgången från sin enda kustnära lokal i Småland söder om Kalmar En uppmärksam läsare, Olof Persson, berättade strax efteråt att den fortfarande finns kvar vid Kristinelunds herrgård i Mortorp sydväst om Kalmar.

In this work, anisotropy is introduced in a peridynamic model. The spherical influence function is replaced by an ellipsoidal influence function. The model is mathematically formulated and implemented into the source files of LAMMPS, extending the program in a straight-forward manner. The extension ca be applied to other peridynamic model and here it is introduced into elasto-plastic peridynamic m
