Two alternative Human-Machine-Interface solutions for in-vehicle speed support were evaluated in field trials in Hungary and Spain. Twenty vehicles on both test sites were equipped with two kinds of systems: 1) support via an Active Accelerator Pedal and 2) warning via beep signals and flashing red light when exceeding the speed limit. The test drivers drove one month with each system. Both system
Society has a responsibility to aid its citizens in case of emergency. This calls for planning and preparations. However, societal emergency response activities are not always fully effective. This might be due to suboptimal emergency planning and preparations, with some planned response actions not working as intended. For example, it is possible that some actions show to be ‘over-planned’ with t
A fully three-dimensional calculation method has been farther developed to simulate and analyze internal reforming and its effects on various processes in a thick anode duct. In this study, the composite duct consists of a porous anode, the flow duct and solid current connector. Momentum and heat transport together with gas species equations have been solved by coupled source terms and variable th
A full-scale in-line primary sludge hydrolysis experiment was conducted in one out of four primary settlers at the Klagshamn Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) to test if the wastewater quality can be improved in terms of providing easily accessible carbon for possible pre-denitrification and the reduction of external carbon sources. The amount of easily accessible carbon produced, in the form of t
This thesis contributes to the ongoing debate about livelihood diversifi cation and the related question of agriculture’s central role in rural development in the Sahel. It focuses on on-farm diversifi cation during the dry season. The aim is to assess the practice and potential of gum arabic production for smallholders in central Sudan. The agricultural system of gum arabic production has provide
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used in order to investigate the relationships between structure, dynamics and calcium binding in the intracellular regulatory protein, calmodulin. Calmodulin consists of two similar domains, each binding two calcium ions with positive cooperativity. The studies described in this thesis focus on the isolated C-terminal domain, TR2C, and two mutants
Due to erosion a quite specially shaped site was formed in the Cederberg, Western Cape, South Africa, as a rock with a hollow base large enough for rooming an occupation layer dated to the Middle Stone Age. The occupation layer holds a number of so called Stillbay points that appear at about the time when the first decorations and ornaments are documented. This might indicate a mental improvement

Bidragen belyser följande teman: Varieties of Design and Order, The Problem of Causality in Science & Theology, Methodology in Science & Theology, och Science and Religion in Culture.
This State-of-the-art report in the CREDIT project has identified and examined a number of existing sets of performance indicators, methods and tools for understanding user needs, requirement management, databases and mandatory reporting. The report has also focused on approaches to better benchmarking schemes in the Nordic and Baltic countries that can compare end-user and client needs, and perfo
The ethical dimensions of Swedish archaeology will be discussed from several angles – those of the archaeology of the past, critical archaeology, contemplative archaeology, and antiquarian archaeology. These themes overlap in the various fields of archaeology. In my opinion ethical perspectives on archaeological practice are vital for the survival and legitimacy of archaeology. Thus, archaeologist
Introduction to the edition of the unfinished doctoral dissertation "Magisk cirkel" by David Aquilon (1965 - 1999), focusing on the films of Ingmar Bergman and expecially "The Serpent's Egg" (1977).
