Människor är ständigt involverade i sociala relationer. Det gäller när vi möter andra ansikte mot ansikte, när vi kommunicerar mobilt och när vi i vår ensamhet begrundar våra liv. Och det gäller arbete, kärlek, familj, vänskap, ovänskap, konflikt, konkurrens, avund, försoning – och så vidare. Sociala relationer är alltså av avgörande betydelse i all social och personlig utveckling. I denna bok pre
Popular Abstract in Swedish När Immanuel Kant år 1795 lät publicera sin lilla skrift Om den eviga freden väckte den stor uppmärksamhet över hela Europa och översattes snart till flera språk. Hur kom det sig att den i samband med tvåhundraårsjubileet 1995 åter var så populär att flera av världens tongivande filosofer diskuterade den och skrev artiklar om den? Nutida tänkare lockas dock av andra idéThis dissertation, a contribution to the history of ideas, is a study of Immanuel Kant’s 1795 monograph Zum ewigen Frieden (Perpetual Peace) and its effective history. The intention is to show how this particular work has been formed, read, discussed and interpreted for about 200 years. Considering the attention the work received on its bicentennial anniversary in comparison with the attention it
Aerosol particles in the atmosphere are important in several aspects. Some major aerosol constituents that are deposited in ecosystems are acidic or fertilisers and some minor or trace constituents are toxic. Aerosol particles are also involved in the earth’s radiation balance, both directly by scattering the sunlight and indirectly by influencing the clouds. All these effects are influenced by th
identity through work gives a necessary context for a meaningful life. Work pace control, autonomy, learning new skills, or participation in company decision making are specific psychological factors included in the job control dimension. On the other hand, high absenteeism and poor health are symptoms used to associate with poor psychosocial working environment. This industry paper presents the e
The airflow in the air gap behind the façade panel has shown to be of importance when risks of moisture and mould damages in wood frame walls are calculated. This study demonstrates the importance of a properly applied outdoor air flow in the air gap behind the façade panel when temperature and moisture conditions are calculated. The paper present and compare how variations in airflow in the air g
E-GIS is a Leonardo pilot project, within Geographical Information Science (GIS), to be implemented over a three year period, 2002-05. The main objectives of the project is to establish co-operation between European Universities and GIS user organisations and to develop modularised courses intended for Internet based learning, establish links of communications between the partners in the project i
Omvårdnad av personer med demenssjukdomar handlar till stor del om att mötas och att försöka se in i och förstå den andres livsvärld. Boken ger redskap som underlättar mötet med personer med demenssjukdomar och innehåller olika dimensioner av vårdandet och av mötet; att vara demensdrabbad, att vara personal och att vara anhörig. Här behandlas även olika faktorer som livsberättelsens betydelse, smä
This study contributes to African state and fiscal history by presenting a detailed comparison of the evolution of fiscal capacity in four countries in francophone West Africa – Benin, Côte d'Ivoire, Niger and Senegal - over both the colonial and independent periods. While common patterns and persistence can be observed it is instead the unique fiscal pathways of the individual countries that stan
This thesis presents spin transport studies of ferromagnetic nano-scaled tunneling devices fabricated by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electron beam lithography (EBL). The thesis covers three main topics: The first topic is a study of spin accumulation (relaxation) in Au nano-structures using Ni/Au/Ni ferromagnetic single electron transistors (F-SETs). A Ni/Au/Ni F-SET with a single central Au
Most implementations of single character recognition use standard arclength parameterization of the handwritten samples. A problem with the arclength approach is that points on curves of different samples from one character class may then actually correspond to parts of different structural significance. Many methods such as DTW and HMM have been successful partly because they are less sensitive t
A low-complexity method using synchronous wrappers is proposed to simplify communication between modules using unsynchronized clocks. To test the method, it is implemented together with a divider and an FFT co-processor. The divider with synchronous wrapper and local clock generator, delivering a 500 MHz clock, is synthesized and verified using post-synthesis simulations for a 0.18 μm 1.8 V CMOS t
Synchrotron radiation is a tool widely used in science. It is produced by electron accelerators called storage rings. With the high performance of the 3rd generation synchrotron light sources, the scientific results are excellent. It is important to identify and overcome the limitations of a storage ring in order to enhance its performance. This will enable research facilities to withstand competi
