Comparison of measured and calculated temperature and relative humidity with varied and constant air flow in the facade air gap

Calculation of relative humidity and temperature in an early stage of the design process is important to avoid moisture damages in wooden walls. Previous studies show that a sufficient air flow in the air gap behind the façade panel is important to ensure a moisture safe construction. This study investigates if blind WUFI 5.0 calculations with a varied air flow in the air gap behind the façade giv

Photoelectron Spectroscopy of High Temperature Superconductors and Related Compounds

In this thesis, the high temperature superconductors (HTSC) Ba0.6K0.4BiO3, La2CuO4+x, Bi2Sr2Ca1-xYxCu2O 8+d, Bi2Sr2CuO6+d as well as semiconducting Ba0.9K0.1BiO3 and the strongly magnetoresistant material La1-xSrxMnO3 have been studied by photoelectron spectroscopy. By using the tunability of synchrotron radiation, techniques such as resonant photoemission and x-ray absorption spectroscopy have be

Välkommen hem Mr Swanson : svenska emigranter och svenskhet på film

Från 1840 och ett sekel framåt utvandrade över en miljon människor från Sverige till Amerika. Att så många valde att lämna Sverige för att söka ett bättre liv på andra sidan Atlanten var ett stort trauma för den svenska nationen. Filmmakarna var inte sena att på olika sätt belysa fenomenet som skulle få märkbar betydelse för den svenska nationella identiteten. I Välkommen hem Mr Swanson analyserar

Xanthophyll Cycle in the Light of Thylakoid Membrane Lipids - Membrane Packing, Curvature Elastic Stress and Enzyme Binding

Popular Abstract in Swedish Fotosyntetiska membraner utsätts för stress vid höga ljusintensiteter och skador kan lätt uppstå. En av de viktigaste skyddande substanserna i växter är karotenoiden zeaxantin. Zeaxantin bildas från violaxantin i xantofyllcykeln och bildningen katalyseras av enzymet violaxantin de-epoxidas (VDE). I aktiv form är enzymet bundet till det fotosyntetiska membranet (tylakoidThe xanthophyll cycle involves the light-dependent and reversible conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin. The enzyme, violaxanthin de-epoxidase (VDE) catalyses the conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin, via the intermediate antheraxanthin. VDE is a membrane-hosted enzyme during its activity. Low lumenal pH, violaxanthin, ascorbate and monogalactosyldiacylglycerol are required for activity. Th

Calculations of Clean and Adsorbate Covered Metal Surfaces and their Core-Level Photoemission Spectra

Popular Abstract in Swedish Genom att utsätta ett material för elektromagnetisk strålning med tillräckligt hög frekvens kan man "slå ut" elektroner. Denna mekanism, som förklarades av Albert Einstein redan 1905, går under namnet den fotoelektriska effekten och utnyttjas idag bl.a. i fotoemissionsexperiment. I dessa experiment analyserar man energin hos de utsända elektronerna och kan dra slutsatseThe present thesis is concerned with the theoretical study of x-ray photoemission spectra from clean and adsorbate-covered metal surfaces. The main tool is ab initio density functional (DFT) total energy calculations. The first part gives an overview of the theoretical treatment of x-ray photoemission with our present contributions highlighted, and an introduction to DFT theory and computational t

Double Helix Relationships in Use and Design of Informing Systems: Lessons to Learn from Phenomenology and Hermeneutics

The theme of this monograph of Informing Science is a dialectic we perceive to exist between meaningful use and reflection upon use. This dialectic between use and reflection on use (or thinking, and thinking about thinking) may be considered in the following way. Each of these elements is subject to change. As reflection triggers change in use, and such change triggers further reflection, a spira

Height-length Joint Distributions for Computation of Static Wave Loading on Floating Bodies

We present a method for the estimation of the distribution of the quasi-static hogging-bending moment for a floating body. Starting points of this study are temporal characteristics of the sea state. The approximation is deduced from the estimation of the joint distribution of crest amplitude and crest length. The quality of the model is investigated by comparing computed distributions with empiri

The Sun-Chariot from Trundholm is world famous, and the finding place is marked with a monument. In the same way the finding places for The golden horns from Gallehus, the Egtved girl, the Dejbjerg chariots, the Gundestrup cauldron, the Nydam boat and many other finds have been remembered during the 20th Century with memorials, often a stone monument. Which finds have become national symbols or h

Selenium Compounds and Antioxidant Capacity in Bovine Milk. Studies on Glutathione Peroxidase, Bioavailability and Electrochemical Techniques

The efficacy and function of antioxidants have been intensively studied in foods and other biological systems in recent decades. This thesis concerns different aspects of the antioxidant properties of bovine milk, with emphasis on measurement of the total antioxidant capacity (TAC), the activity of the selenium-containing glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx), and the bioavailability of selenium from bov

A grammar of Jahai

Popular Abstract in Swedish Jahai är ett språk som tillhör asli-grenen av språkfamiljen mon-khmer och talas av ca 1000 jägare-samlare i bergsregnskogarna i norra Västmalaysia. Denna avhandling, baserad på språkliga data inhämtade i fält, beskriver och analyserar grammatiken i jahai. Arbetet inleds med en introduktion till språket och dess talare och behandlar sedan bl.a. ljudsystemet (fonologin), Jahai, a language belonging to the Aslian branch of the Mon-Khmer language family, is spoken by a group of about 1,000 hunter-gatherers in the montane rainforests of northern Peninsular Malaysia. Drawing on linguistic data collected in the field, the present dissertation is a study of the grammar of Jahai. The work begins with an introduction to Jahai and its speakers, and subsequent chapters char

Reflexiv fältarkeologi? Återsken av ett seminarium.

Hur undviker vi att fastna i gamla "sanningar"? Hur ställer vi frågor som möjliggör överraskande svar? Hur skapar vi ett arbetsklimat som stimulerar reflektion? Detta är några av de frågor som diskuteras i "Reflexiv fältarkeologi?". I boken medverkar 33 författare varav flertalet är verksamma inom uppdragsarkeologin. Boken tar pulsen på dagens svenska fältarkeologi och fångar åsikter och erfarenhe
