Modern adaptive techniques in two-point boundary value problems generate the mesh by constructing a function that maps a uniform grid to the desired nonuniform grid. This paper describes a new control algorithm for constructing a grid density function $phi(x)$, such that the local mesh width $Delta x_{j+1/2}=x_{j+1}-x_j$ is computed as $Delta x_{j+1/2} = varepsilon_N / varphi_{j+1/2}$. Here $varep
Popular Abstract in Swedish Studien behandlar den sydsvenske bonadsmålaren Johannes Nilssons måleri. Denne produktive målare levde och verkade i Breareds socken i södra Halland 17571827. En analys av hans bonader visar att han i många stycken frångick sina föregångares traditionella, imiterande framställning och begränsade motivkrets. Den övergripande frågan i avhandlingen är: varför målade JohanThe aim of this dissertation is to find relationships between folk art, an artist's personal life and influential factors originating in the context. Christmas wall hangings by the peasant painter Johannes Nilsson (17571827) are the focus of the study. The fact that he had a special approach to the painting tradition raises two questions: Why did he paint the way he did? How can his hangings be i
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det svenska samhället har som många andra europeiska länder blivit mångkulturellt pga en ökande internationell migration. Behovet av information om hur detta kan inverka på hälsan bland personer med kroniska sjukdomar, som t ex diabetes, har därmed ökat. Nästan 11% av landets befolkning är idag födda utomlands. Mer än 120 olika nationaliteter finns representerade, även To study the influence of migration on health in migrant diabetic subjects, foreign-and Swedish-born persons were compared as regards objective and subjectively perceived health in relation to social position, and beliefs about health and illness and their influence on self-care and care-seeking behaviour. Persons (foreign- and Swedish-born) with known diabetes mellitus (DM), aged 16-74 years, wer
Three-dimensional mapping of atmospheric atomic mercury has been performed with lidar techniques, to our knowledge, for the first time. Industrial pollution monitoring, as well as measurements of background concentrations, is reported. High-efficiency frequency doubling of narrowband pulsed dye laser radiation was employed to generate intense radiation at the mercury UV resonance line. Field measu
This thesis is about the formation of complexes in solutions of oppositely charged polyions. We consider mainly three topics: 1)Monte Carlo simulations of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes with a focus on cluster compositions. To explain the distribution of cluster compositions, we found a minimum set of rules describing the interplay between the energy and entropy. 2)An analytical theory. The
The total transmission bandwidth and component carrier aggregation proposed by LTE-Advanced, sets a new challenge to the design of terminals. This article presents a way to assure terminals cope with the large bandwidth in an efficient manner. Various filtering methods are explored showing that an SDR architecture, such as ADRES (Architecture for Dynamically Reconfigurable Embedded Systems), is su
Religion can motivate people to altruistic activity in the service of mankind. But it can also instigate terror attacks. When does religion become senseless? Several chapters are devoted to a discussion of Buddhism and its contribution to well-being. In a final chapter the author presents his ideas about global spirituality. Representatives of the five great world religions come together in order
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the find of a Byzantine solidus in Guleboda, Älmeboda parish, southern Småland. This coin was found in an area that has never been central in any respect, and where at first sight there hardly seems to have been any Iron Age settlement at all. The purpose of the article is to try to contextualize the find. Other finds from the same site are discussed as well
This chapter reassesses the modernization processes at work in Republican China during the Warlord period between 1911 and 1927 by focusing on corporate, public action by non-state interest groups and organizations. In particular, it looks at modes of corporate governing at the interface of business/economy and education: the realm of vocational education. The chapter examines a particularly illum
The aim of this sociology of law-orientated article is to analyse and describe legislative and regulatory processes concerning the task given to schools focusing on environment and sustainable development. We are describing the policy-making processes in this field from 1990 to 2011. The study involves key interviews and content analysis of national policy documents as well as legal sources, in or
We report on a low-temperature magnetoconductance study to characterize the electrical and spin transport properties of n-type InAs nanowires grown by chemical beam epitaxy. A gate-controlled crossover from weak localization to weak antilocalization is observed. The measured magnetoconductance data agrees well with theory for one-dimensional quasi-ballistic systems and yields a spin relaxation len
Det svenska samhället har utvecklats till ett krissamhälle. Ett av dess kännetecken är att politiken blir annorlunda. Realpolitik och politisk retorik glider isär. Kanske är det en postmodern politik vi ser växa fram när politikens båda världar, den reella respektive virtuella politiska verkligheten, differentieras alltmer? Kravet på sammanhang dem emellan försvagas, förmedlingarna mellan dem uppl
