The dielectric procperties of MSWI bottom ash as a function of volumetric water content (VWC) are reported in this paper. The objective was to aid the development of microwave based non-invasive emission monitoring and control system for various bottom ash applications. The dielectric measurements were made, on a 1.5-year-old bottom ash, with an electrical network analyzer in microwave range (300
Previous studies have found associations between pediatric sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and socioeconomic status (SES), as well as a neighborhood-related disadvantage. This study analyzes the association among familial SES, parental occupation, and SDB in Swedish offspring.
Learning about hereditary cancer may influence an individual's self-concept, which otherwise represents a complex but stable cognitive structure. Recently, a 20-statement self-concept scale, with subscales related to stigma-vulnerability and bowel symptom-related anxiety, was developed for Lynch syndrome. We compared the performance of this scale in 591 mutation carriers from Denmark, Sweden and C
A series of photosensitizers for NiO-based dye-sensitized solar cells is presented. Three model compounds containing a triphenylamine donor appended to a boron dipyrromethene (bodipy) chromophore have been successfully prepared and characterised using emission spectroscopy, electrochemistry and spectroelectrochemistry, to ultimately direct the design of dyes with more complex structures. Carboxyli
In this paper, we present a method for metal contact characterization to vertical semiconductor nanowires using the transmission line method (TLM) on a cylindrical geometry. InAs nanowire resistors are fabricated on Si substrates using a hydrogen silsesquioxane (HSQ) spacer between the bottom and top contact. The thickness of the HSQ is defined by the dose of an electron beam lithography step, and
In Alzheimer's disease (AD), placebo-controlled long-term studies of cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs) are not permitted for ethical reasons. Therefore, in these studies, patients' outcomes on cognitive and functional assessment scales must be compared with mathematical models or historical data from untreated cohorts. PubMed and previously published long-term extensions of clinical trials and nat
The United Nations (UN)-led global consultations on new development goals, which will replace the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), started in 2012. In comparison with the creation of the MDGs, the road towards the post-2015 goals is much more inclusive and participatory. The consultations are part of a longer trend, in which intergovernmental organizations seek to strengthen their legitimacy
Deviances in early event-related potential (ERP) components reXecting auditory and phonological processing are well-documented in children at familial risk for dyslexia. However, little is known about brain responses which index processing in other linguistic domains such as lexicon, semantics and syntax in this group. The present study investigated eVects of lexical-semantic priming in 20- and 24
Wireless access technologies such as UMTS with HSPA extensions, WiMAX, and Flash-OFDM and the convergence towards next generation heterogeneous networks enable the realization of always best connected scenarios. As the resulting heterogeneous networks become easier to access and more reliable to depend on, novel telemedicine services such as vehicular emergency applications emerge. Due to their li
I Den [o] hållbara förpackningen analyseras svenska konsumentförpackningar från 1930-talet fram till idag. Boken består av tre delar där läsaren först får lära känna mjölkförpackningarna, som är livsmedelsbranschens kanske vanligaste men samtidigt mest krävande förpackning. Därefter behandlas läkemedelsförpackningarna, en kategori som alltid har kännetecknats av ett högt säkerhetstänkande. Slutlig
The environmental footprint of IT products are significant and, in spite of manufacturing and product design improvements, growing consumption of electronics results in increasing absolute environmental impact. Computers have short technological lifespan and a lot of the in-build performance, although necessary, remains idling for most of the time. Today, most of computers used in non-residential
Jag vill diskutera det som den amerikanska pedagogen Adrianna Kezar i en artikel från 2007 kallar campus ethos, där siktet är inställt på att skapa samhörighet mellan enskilda studenter och en institution, fånga upp deras engagemang och att få studenterna att känna sig välkomna och trygga i en ny gemenskap och bli framgångsrika i sina studier. Hon skriver: ”An ethos may be thought of as a life-giv
This study,”Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration- exkluding or including?”, has aimed to examine how irregular migrants are being excluded from the Global Compact for Migration, and which consequences the exclusion can bring for the migrants. My question for this study was ”In which ways has the political consensus for the Global Compact for Migration (GCM) isolated the irregular
Background Introducing services for manufacturing companies can lead to improving customer satisfaction and new revenue streams as well as creating a more sustainable business. However, the current understanding of how this can be done in practice is limited. Purpose This master’s thesis investigates how a manufacturing company can generate sustainable value through the introduction of new repair
Bakgrund: Innebandy är en sport med hög skaderisk då spelet involverar snabba sväng- och vridrörelser som påfrestar kroppen. Knäleden är den led som är mest drabbad av idrottsskador. Flera studier visar att kvinnor har en högre risk att drabbas av knäskador än män. Implementering av skadeförebyggande träning har i studier resulterat i en minskad knäskadefrekvens för spelare. Trots att studier visa
