Solitary waves in a Whitham equation with small surface tension

Using a nonlocal version of the center-manifold theorem and a normal form reduction, we prove the existence of small-amplitude generalized solitary-wave solutions and modulated solitary-wave solutions to the steady gravity-capillary Whitham equation with weak surface tension. Through the application of the center-manifold theorem, the nonlocal equation for the solitary wave profiles is reduced to

Rektalcancer: : Risk för lokalt recidiv är beroende av RESEKTIONSMARGINAL

Rektalcancer är en sjukdom där behandlingsresultaten förbättrats kraftigt de senaste decennierna. Behandling för ändtarmscancer sker med antingen endast kirurgi eller kirurgi i kombination med onkologisk neoadjuvant behandling. Kirurgisk radikalitet, mikroskopisk marginal mellan tumörvävnad och frisk vävnad, är av stor betydelse för att minska risken för lokalrecidiv och öka överlevnaden

Tribology and airborne particle emission of laser-cladded fe-based coatings versus non-asbestos organic and low-metallic brake materials

Laser cladding is a promising surface treatment for refurbishing worn-out cast-iron brake rotors. Previous studies on laser-cladded brake rotors have demonstrated their extensively higher wear and greater airborne particle emissions, compared with traditional cast iron rotors. In order to overcome this, a commercial non-asbestos organic (NAO) brake material is tested against Fe-based laser-cladded

Biotechnology and genetic engineering raise a number of new ethical problems. Consequently, over the past 15 years, several European countries, including the Nordic countries, have passed new laws in an attempt to deal with the ethical problems posed by biotechnology. These developments raise the question of how to formulate legislation to regulate both the technical and ethical aspects of biotech

Disrupting ‘A Man’s World’: Gender, Technology, and Class in Vietnam’s Global Heavy Industry.

Only rarely is Vietnam's global heavy industry studied from an anthropological perspective in either its gender or its class dimensions. This article contributes new insights into the ways in which the interagential dynamics of gender and technology from shopfloor to engineer offices coproduce social orders in contesting and perpetuating essentializing notions of femininity and masculinity. Blue-c

Designing Enchanted Rituals for Modern Man

This article discusses a new form of rituals, marketed as coaching or layman therapeutic practices, focusing on self-development and healing, which rapidly expanded in the early 2000s in Sweden. The targets of these rituals are individuals and workplaces, buying these and similar formalized practices. Questions raised include: How do these rituals reflect the structure of society? How are they desThis article discusses a new form of rituals, marketed as coaching or layman therapeutic practices, focusing on self-development and healing, which rapidly expanded in the early 2000s in Sweden.

Infection of brain pericytes underlying neuropathology of covid‐19 patients

A wide range of neurological manifestations have been associated with the development of COVID‐19 following SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. However, the etiology of the neurological sympto-matology is still largely unexplored. Here, we used state‐of‐the‐art multiplexed immunostaining of human brains (n = 6 COVID‐19, median age = 69.5 years; n = 7 control, median age = 68 years) and demonstrated that express

Intermedial combinations

Media combinations of different basic media types are always, literally, intermedial combinations that involve intermedial relations between different forms of communication. This chapter looks at how words and images on pages convey a graphic narrative in comics. In the specific case of comics, scholars have attempted to categorize different types of interaction between words and images, which cr

Trigger warnings – om undervisning och politisk gränshållning i 2020-talets sociala landskap

Debatten om ”trigger warnings” och ”trygga rum” berör alla universitetslärare, även dem som aldrig ställts inför dylika krav från studenter. Med utgångspunkt i den uppmärksammade konflikten på sexologutbildningen vid Malmö universitet våren 2021 diskuterar essän vad så kallade trigger warnings och trygga rum är, och hur lärare i högre utbildning kan förhålla sig till studenters föreställningar kri

Enzymology and significance of protein histidine methylation

Cells synthesize proteins using 20 standard amino acids and expand their biochemical repertoire through intricate enzyme-mediated post-translational modifications (PTMs). PTMs can either be static and represent protein editing events or be dynamically regulated as a part of a cellular response to specific stimuli. Protein histidine methylation (Hme) was an elusive PTM for over 5 decades and has on

Proteomic response in Streptococcus gordonii DL1 biofilm cells during attachment to salivary MUC5B

Background: Salivary mucin MUC5B seems to promote biodiversity in dental biofilms, and thereby oral health, for example, by inducing synergistic 'mucolytic' activities in a variety of microbial species that need to cooperate for the release of nutrients from the complex glycoprotein. Knowledge of how early colonizers interact with host salivary proteins is integral to better understand the maturat

Monitoring the standard – here, now and in person : Detecting accessibility faults as an engaged citizen

This chapter analyses volunteer work for identifying and reporting accessibility faults in urban settings. By looking closely at how people monitor adherence to the accessibility standards of laws and human rights, it is possible to recognise and understand their concrete fight against exclusion and discrimination. The author uses ethnographic data from go-alongs with two ‘accessibility detectives
