Den sammanfogar urbergsblock av olika ålder och ursprung vilka även har skilda geologiska utvecklingshistorier. Öster om zonen, i det s.k. Östra Segmentet (ÖS; delar av Halland, The Mylonite zone (MZ) is a prominent late-Sveconorwegian lithological terrane boundary in the SW Baltic Shield along which large-scale crustal block movements took place during the Sveconorwegian orogeny.

The combined thermal effects of convection, radiation and conduction in a vehiclecompartment need special measuring equipment accounting for spatial and temporalvariations in the driver space. The most sophisticated equipment measures local heat fluxes at defined spots or areas of a man-shaped manikin. By calibration of segment heat fluxes with thermal sensation votes of panel of subjects, manikin

The base of the world economic pyramid consists of 4 billion people typically earning less than 4 USD per day. This population is generally called the base of the pyramid (BoP). Much research on BoP markets focuses on motivating companies to enter these markets to create a win-win situation such that companies can gain benefits and BoP customers can satisfy their unmet or under-served needs.
