The type of mixed mode fracture, which is of a main interest for concrete, is a type of fracture, where shear as well as tensile stresses act in a damage zone, which has been created due to pure tensile stresses, and which is perpendicular to the direction of these stresses. While this damage zone still transfers tensile stresses, a shear deformation takes place, which also causes shear stresses.

Svensk universitetsgrammatik för nybörjare presenterar på ett resonerande sätt grunderna i svensk grammatik. Utgångspunkten är den traditionella grammatiken, men hänsyn tas också till nyare landvinningar inom den moderna grammatikforskningen. Boken riktar sig i första hand till studerande i ämnena svenska och nordiska språk vid universitet och hörskolor. Den innehåller rikligt med exempel och är u

We investigate if we can find evidence of house effects in Swedish political opinion polls from 2006 to 2014. In order to respect the inherent restriction of the simplex sample space, we apply compositional data analysis and Aitchison geometry. We use compositional locally weighted regression (C-loess) to estimate the share of voters for each party at given dates, a poll of polls. The estimated sh

In this work, we propose a computationally efficient time-updating algorithm for estimating the spectral content of a signal with missing samples. The algorithm extends earlier work on the topic by formulating a data-interpolation scheme reducing the required complexity to a fraction of the earlier efficient implementation, without resulting in any noticeable loss of performance for even a quite l

This chapter analyses horizontal institutional interlinkages by stressing their embeddedness in overarching global norms. It explains the nature of institutional interlinkages in various policy domains, and their consequences for the development of specific global regimes. We explore, in particular, how certain dominant global norms may be reflected in the positional differences (and their resolut

We find effective (homogenized) parameters for Maxwell's equations when the microscopic scale becomes small, but not infinitesimal, compared to the wavelength. The analysis is based on a singular value decomposition of the differential operator in Maxwell's equations

The measured water vapour resistances of clothing ensembles differ among laboratories particularly for impermeable clothing. Due to the moisture transfer in the clothing ensemble, evaporative heat losses in initial, transient and steady state phases are different. The purpose of this study was to investigate moisture absorption inside underwear and outer layer as a function of time, to quantify th
