Purpose: Endwall film cooling protects vane endwall by coolant coverage, especially at the leading edge (LE) region and vane-pressure side (PS) junction region. Strong flow impingement and complex vortexaa structures on the vane endwall cause difficulties for coolant flows to cover properly. This work aims at a full-scale arrangement of film cooling holes on the endwall which improves coolant effi
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in major depressive disorder (MDD). A measure of mitochondrial respiratory chain (RC) enzymatic activity—the Mitochondrial Health Index (MHI)—has previously been found to correlate with stress and emotional states in caregivers. We here report mitochondrial RC activities, mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNAcn), and the composite MHI in unmedicated and
Geospatial data are increasingly available nowadays, and this leads to more analyses and visualisation of geospatial data from several sources. To enable this, we need homogenous data as well as proper integration methods. Geospatial data integration has been a longstanding research topic for decades, and this paper discusses the utilisation of Linked Data technology stack to alleviate the geospat
Organisms use circadian rhythms to anticipate and exploit daily environmental oscillations. While circadian rhythms are of clear importance for inhabitants of tropic and temperate latitudes, its role for permanent residents of the polar regions is less well understood. The high Arctic Svalbard ptarmigan shows behavioral rhythmicity in presence of light-dark cycles but is arrhythmic during the pola
Small birds are hot creatures with an average body temperature of 40° Centigrade, and so must burn energy at a formidable rate to stay warm. This becomes quite the challenge in winter when birds are 40-50 degrees warmer than outside for extended periods, even in comparatively mild regions such as Scotland. Thus, the little bird in winter must spend most of the day either feeding or searching for f
Purpose - H2O, CO2 and CO are three main species in combustion systems which have high volume fractions. In addition, soot has strong absorption in the infrared band. Thus, H2O, CO2, CO and soot may take important roles in radiative heat transfer. To provide calculations with high accuracy, all of the participating media should be considered non-gray media. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to st
A sorption isotherm expresses the relation between ambient relative humidity (RH) and equilibrium moisture content of a material for a specific temperature. The sorption isotherm can generally be divided into a hygroscopic part covering low, medium and high RH levels, and an over-hygroscopic part close to 100% RH. For wood, the hygroscopic part is dominated by water uptake in cell walls and the ov
I detta kapitel beskrivs hur man vid Lunds tekniska högskola organiserar kursvärderingar som en del i ett övergripande arbete med rapporterande utvärdering av kurser. Syftet är att bidra med förståelse för hur olika konkreta problem förknippade med genomförandet av ett system för kursvärdering och utvärdering angripits på Lunds tekniska högskola. kapitlet visar också på hur Lunds tekniska högskola
Organized human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination was introduced in Sweden in 2012. On-demand vaccination was in effect from 2006 to 2011. We followed the HPV prevalences in Southern Sweden from 2008 to 2013.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Olyckor i järnvägssektorn kan ge upphov till katastrofala konsekvenser. I första hand kan människors liv och hälsa drabbas, men allvarliga konsekvenser kan även uppstå för samhället i stort. Detta beror på att järnvägssystemet, liksom en rad andra infrastruktursystem är väsentliga för att vårt moderna samhälle ska fungera. Under de senaste decennierna har dessa system bIn recent decades, the Swedish railway system has faced substantial deregulations. As a result, management of risk is often carried out in settings involving multiple stakeholders having various roles, mandates, and viewpoints on risk, and where no single stakeholder has the superior authority. In order to manage risks in this type of multi-actor setting, the traditional elements of risk assessmen
The prevalence of violent conflicts over the last few decades has left numerous countries in the need of thorough rebuilding; from Afghanistan to Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Guatemala, Somalia or Rwanda. In order to assist in the recovery of these post-conflict societies, various peacebuilding strategies and transitional justice mechanisms have been implemented by a range of different actors. However, mo
I denna rapport föreslås en metod som syftar till att fördjupa förståelsen för identifiering av verifieringsbehovet, som rekommenderas i de svenska byggreglerna för analytisk dimensionering av byggnadstekniskt brandskydd. Syftet med denna rapport är att ge vägledning åt ingenjörer att noggrant ta reda på vilken effekt en förändring av en byggnads utformning har på byggnadens brandskyddssystem. FöIn this report a method is proposed that aims to deepen the understanding for identification of the need for verification that is recommended in Swedish regulations for performance based design of fire safety in buildings. The purpose of this report is to provide guidance to engineers on how to thoroughly identify the effect that an alteration to a building design has on the buildings total fire s
På senare år har det diskuterats frenetiskt om arbetet mot gängkriminaliteten. Inom ramen för regeringens 34-punktsprogram, ett program bestående av flera förslag till åtgärder mot gängkriminaliteten i Sverige, infördes en ny tillfällig lag som gäller under en femårsperiod. I april 2020 trädde lagen (2020:62) om hemlig dataavläsning i kraft, för att möjliggöra för de brottsbekämpande myndigheternaOver the past years in Sweden, there has been a lot of discussions concerning the struggle on gang-related misconduct. Enclosed in the framework of the Swedish government's 34-point program, moreover an agenda comprising several proposals for measures to combat gang-related criminality, a new temporary legislation was introduced for a period of five years. In April 2020, the Secret Data Interc
Bygg- och fastighetsbranschen utgör i dagsläget en betydande andel av Sveriges naturresursutvinning samt klimatpåverkan, där påverkan från traditionella stommar av betong och stål länge har dominerat. Klimatintensiva processer såsom cement- och stålproduktion är bidragande faktorer till att branschen är i behov av en hållbar och cirkulär omställning. Återbruk och cirkulärt byggande erbjuder hållbaToday, the construction and real estate industry accounts for a sizable portion of the market´s material consumption and climate impact, with traditional structural materials such as concrete and steel long dominated. Processes such as cement and steel production contribute to the industry´s need for a sustainable transition and circular transition. Reuse and circular construction offer sustainabl
Aktuell status för dagvattenhantering i grannstäderna Köpenhamn och Malmö studerades med avseende på befintliga åtgärder och genomförda systemen i de båda städerna. Tillämpning av blå-gröna lösningar i de yttre delarna av Malmö började på 1990-talet och följaktligen är samarbete mellan olika avdelningar inom kommunen mer strukturerat i Malmö medan processen i Köpenhamn fortfarande är baserad på trThe current status of storm-water management in the neighbor cities of Copenhagen and Malmö was studied with respect to present measures and the implemented systems in both cities. Application of blue-green solutions in the outer parts of Malmö started in the 1990s; hence collaboration between different departments in the municipality is more structured in the city of Malmö while in Copenhagen the
