The Rockox' Mables

A number of Roman Marble heads in Swedish Royal possession since the 17th century may be traced back to the collection of the burgomaster Rockox in Antwerpen. Four of these occur in the famous painting by Frans Francken the Younger representing a feast in Nicholaas Rockox' home. Althoug more marble heads to be found in the Stockholm collection may be traced back to Rockox two of the heads in the p

Navagrahas

Based chiefly on textual sources, the article treats of the nine planetary deities of Hinduism, their origin and historical development, major mythology, iconography, rituals, and their relation both to the greater Hindu pantheon and to astrological concepts.

Attentatet på Dramaten. En studie av Alf Sjöbergs uppsättning av Marika Stiernstedts drama. The Outrage at the Royal Dramatic Theatre in Stockholm. A studie of Alf Sjöberg's stageing of Marika Stiernstedt's drama.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen behandlar den svenska författarinnan Marika Stiernstedts drama Attentatet och regissören Alf Sjöbergs uppsättning av det på Dramaten 1944. Produktionsprocessen följs från dramats tillkomst till uppsättningens möte med publiken. Avhandlingen undersöker vad dramat och uppsättningen berättar om tidens oro och om politiska och etiska motsättningar. Fokus liggerThe thesis deals with the Swedish author Marika Stiernstedt's drama The Outrage and Alf Sjöberg's production of it at the Royal Dramatic Theatre in 1944. The production process is followed from the birth of the drama to the production's encounter with the audience. The thesis examines what the drama and the production tell about the unrest of those times and about political and ethical antagonisms

A framework for inversion of wavefield spectra in seismic non-destructive testing of pavements

A method for the inversion of wavefield spectra in non-destructive testing of pavements is outlined. Data acquisition and processing is based on the Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) method. The inversion of a vertical-shear wave velocity profile is conducted on the full wave field spectrum using the Fast Simulated Annealing (FSA) algorithm. This procedure avoids dealing with discrete

Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (PiZ): Clinical studies with special regard to hepatic and vasculitic disorders

Homozygous alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT)deficiency (PiZZ) is known to predispose to emphysema and chronic liver disease (CLD). The overall aim of the studies upon which this thesis is based was to investigate extra-pulmonary disease manifestations of AAT deficiency with special reference to hepatic and vasculitic disorders. Both men and women with homozygous AAT deficiency were shown to be at increas

Hierarchical stochastic motion blur rasterization

We present a hierarchical traversal algorithm for stochastic rasterization of motion blur, which efficiently reduces the number of inside tests needed to resolve spatio-temporal visibility. Our method is based on novel tile against moving primitive tests that also provide temporal bounds for the overlap. The algorithm works entirely in homogeneous coordinates, supports MSAA, facilitates efficient

Socio-Economic and Nutritional Determinants of Low Birth Weight in India

Background: Low birth weight (LBW) is an important risk factor for childhood morbidity and mortality, consequently an important public health concern. Aim: This study aims to identify significant socio-economic and nutritional determinants associated with LBW in India. Materials and Methods: Data from 2005 to 2006 National Family Health Survey-3 (NFHS-3) of India was analyzed. A total of 20,946 wo
