Belt Driven Alternator and Starter with a Series Magnetized Synchronous Machine Drive

Electric Hybrid Vehicles, EHV, are under development to provide lower fuel consumption levels and minimize the environmental pollution compared to pure Internal Combustion Engine, ICE, driven vehicles. The EHV is more complex and thus carry many more extra parts than the pure ICE based vehicle. Competing against the pure ICE vehicle in the sense of nonexpensive mass production is hard. This thesis

Structural Changes in Nonionic Surfactant Systems

In this thesis we have studied structural changes of a nonionic surfactant self-assembly, as governed by changes in temperature and concentration. The techniques used in experimental investigations were dynamic and static light scattering, nuclear magnetic resonance and cryo-transmission electron microscopy (using a novel specimen preparation protocol). The model systems consist of nonionic surfac

Means to Optimize the Nutritional Properties of Starch in Potato Products - Impact on glycaemia, satiety and resistant starch content

Popular Abstract in Swedish Potatis har varit, och är fortfarande ett viktigt baslivsmedel i svensk kosthållning. Det finns många sorter med olika egenskaper vilket bidrar till dess variationsrikedom. Potatisen är en rik källa till stärkelse, kostfibrer samt vitaminer och mineraler, t ex C-vitamin och järn. En invändning mot potatis ur nutritionell synvinkel är att stärkelsen lätt bryts ned av enzDespite decreased consumption potatoes still constitute an important staple in the Swedish diet. An objection to potatoes and potato products from a nutritional point of view is the ease by which the starch is digested and absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. This results in unfavourably high glycaemic and insulinaemic responses (glycaemic index, GI and insulinaemic index, II, respectively). Su

The Control Server: A Computational Model for Real-Time Control Tasks

The paper presents a computational model for real-time controltasks, with the primary goal of simplifying the control andscheduling co-design problem. The model combines time-triggered I/Oand inter-task communication with dynamic, reservation-based taskscheduling. To facilitate short input-output latencies, a task maybe divided into several segments. Jitter is reduced by allowingcommunication only

Moisture transport under a temperature gradient – some old and new studies

Moisture transport in concrete under a temperature gradient is a topic that has challenged researchers for at least some 60 years. No conclusions are still drawn on how to describe it theoretically and how to quantify it experimentally. In this paper some of the theoretical and experimental work done is summarized. A description of the flux of moisture by the relative humidity and the water vapour

Generationsväxling - kompetensförsörjning i kommunal fastighetsförvaltning

Syftet med denna rapport är att ge en orienterande bild över den kommunala fastighetsförvaltningens situation, med avseende på pensionsavgångar samt framtida försörjning av kompetens. Studiens spänner över fastighetsförvaltningens ledning och operativa kompetens. Studien har föregåtts av två tidigare studier på samma tema. Studien av kommunal teknik genomfördes under hösten 1999 och plan & byg

Market Conditions for Bioenergy in the European Union: Facing Barriers and Finding Ways to Success

Supportive legislation and improving technologies are making bioenergy an increasingly attractive energy source for Europe both economically and environmentally. However, abundant resources remain untapped across many member states in the European Union (EU). The Bioenergy Network of Excellence (NoE) entitled Overcoming Barriers to Bioenergy in Europe is charged with the task to identify critical

IS technologies constraining and enabling powers in budgeting

Budgeting is one of the oldest and the most popular organisational decisionmaking and controlling mechanisms. Although not new, information system (IS) technologies are not developed to support the process fully. Based on the structuration theory, this paper uses the concept of human agencies to examine how users interpret different types of IS technology, which are commonly used in budgeting, suc

The Melody Phrasing Curve : A Visual Tool for Illustrating Perceived Musical Dynamics

In Western classical music traditions, conventional ways of considering melody have been established. The tones of a melody phrase might be experienced as building up a continuous line moving between dynamical culmination points and relaxation points. In this study, a special visual tool called the Melody phrasing curve (MPhC) has been tested. The MPhC is designed according to some established con
